it's pretty sad that with this latest iteration of iphones they've abandoned the strategy of taking a phone design and ironing out the flaws for the s-series of the same model from now on, it's just flawed design after flawed design with no refinement at all, dongles akimbo

topping a luxury watch brand by n+1 units sold isn't a particularly huge accomplishment when they don't sell a whole lot of watches these days thanks to china cracking down on bribery the real story for the iwatch is that someone discovered a use case for it and that use case is cheating in baseball

tim finally learned that people were savvy and didn't buy the first iteration of their hardware so now every new product will be redesigned every release so no more weeding out bad designs in the next release, it's just new problems all the time every time

the engineer will likely get an extra bonus for his innovative methods of spreading mindshare about the iphone x steve understood that engineers/computer touchers don't deserve any dignity or reward for their efforts and treated them accordingly

the added hype is going to backfire anyway since apple is struggling to make the iphonx and is likely going to have some serious quality issues with the ones they do manage to churn out

The Management posted:if this was pre-announcement then yes, fired. in general the rule is to let apple marketing do the marketing. people that have early devices know they’re not allowed to show them to anyone, and certainly not post them on YouTube. gosh it's almost as if tim doesn't care about pre-announcing or leaking or any of that because he's grossly incompetent either that or he's fully embraced fake leaks because at least those he can control

iphonx pricing is far steeper than it needs to be due to tim failing to even do the one thing he supposedly knows how to do: deal with supply chain issues

cannot wait for phones that require you to hold the phone perfectly in front of your face which will be very convenient for muggers since you're basically handing it to them

plus if you're actually going to get mugged, waving your stupid iphonx in front of your face is a real good tipoff to a potential mugger that they can also likely get an iwatch and airbuds for their trouble as a bonus, possibly an ipad to boot basically trying to use iface is shouting to the world that you've got a pretty startling lack of common sense to go with at least $2000 worth of gadgets to steal

i wonder if the impetus to develop something as dumb as iface was born out of the idea that the kids today love to take selfies, so why not have them selfie to unlock their phone??

yes, and now that they have ensured that users will constantly have to wave their phones in front of their faces there's a new stream of selfies to analyze and then upload for later deep data mining thank you for agreeing at long last

now it's coming out that bluetooth support is entirely broken on ios 11, devices failing to pair properly and the added fun bug of the occasional phone call making the caller hear everything super slowed down eh, it's not a big deal as long as you plug in your headphones to take a call lol
