Nice ads, but how about showing us this wonderful artwork and music they’re producing?  Other than some photos by Bruce Hall, and very few of those, all we see is the back of people’s MacBooks. Not the best way to convince people, I’d say. 

Jony Ive designed Apple Park? That bit of news is going to come as a big surprise to Norman Foster and his firm, who actually designed it. Jony may have had input, but I don’t see Lord Norman being one to listen well to others. When are people going to start giving credit where credit is due, and not where it isn’t? 
It’s the same with the Apple Store on Park Avenue, New York. Steve Jobs did not design this! It was the firm of Bohlin, Cywinski, Jackson. 
Get your facts straight people!

It’s interesting that this is in only 17 of the 27 European Union countries (if the list here has all the countries where it’s allowed). I would have expected an EU wide approval.

List of countries which support ECG app doesn’t seem to have changed since the March update added most European countries...

It’s an additional 5 countries: https://gadgetsandwearables.com/2019/05/14/watchos-ecg/
Not many, unless you live in one of them.  I wasn’t considering the Watch 4 until March when my country was included. I would have gotten the 3 and spent less.

EU vultures.

And . . . cue the Euro-bashers.  Do you have an automatic notification for whenever the EU or an EU country is mentioned so you can post something negative?

Do you know of any other country in the world where such a low tax rate as Apple was getting is allowed? I'm really curious to know.

I don't want to be a Debbie Downer but unless that little girl is breathing out hydrogen, helium, methane etc, I can't see why she would float away. I guess it's not meant to be a scientifically realistic ad anyway.

But you have no problem with a cat that size . . .

I don’t see the appeal of wearing my ear pods and charger on my wrist. Something about “wearing my heart on my sleeve.”  

And the fact that it’s a Kickstarter campaign also kills it for me.  I’ve supported three campaigns and been scammed in two of those. Of course Kickstarter doesn’t care since they get their cut even if I get nothing. 

I just hope they've improved the hinge.  My wife used one of these on her iPad Mini 4 and after two months the hinge broke completely.  It still works as a case, but it's annoying to have to hold the iPad up to see the screen when you're typing!

Just another Asian company doing whatever it takes to win, including breaking the law. Move along, nothing to see here. Everyone in the world who helps support these clowns by buying their products should feel proud of themselves.

pretty racist bro.

Lets not forget who's responsible for the holocaust and the housing crisis of 2008 that nearly destroyed the entire world economy.  

It's not racist unless it's not true and applies to only one race.  But this kind of corruption is very common in Asia, Europe, Africa, Russia, South America, Australia, oh and North America. 

I hope Ginsberg is one of the justices on this case. She's neat!
