Not entirely shocking when you consider the 5c.

Kinda sad to hear. Apple was really hoping this would end up being TV+'s Game of Thrones with how they hyped it up. But that first season was a real disappointment. Season 2 was way better, but I think hype mostly died off after Season 1. Apple TV+ has a severe viewership issue, and with how expensive Foundation supposedly is I can't see this going past this 3rd season.

They don't need to make a cheap dongle. Just lower the freaking price of their HD box already. No reason for that 5 year old piece of hardware to still cost anything above $80, let alone $150.

Apple is so godd**n stupid with their “gaming efforts”. Here you have a full fledged service in the middle of the App Store - the only App Store on iOS tvOS and iPadOS - along with announcements and grandstanding of how console level games can be played on their newest hardware. WHY AREN’T MORE AAA GAMES MAKING IT TO ARCADE???? Why aren’t Apple TVs being made with it in mind??? Why didn’t they try to get games like RE4 and Death Stranding on the service?? Arcade has the infrastructure and hardware it needs to be a mainstream Steam, but Apple just has their heads up their asses when it comes to reaching the potential of their services in general. They need to do better.

What a joke. How is this for the benefit of the user???? IT GIVES US CHOICE.

If the iOS platform is to maintain integrity, yes. Epic has a solid history of bad credit. If the EU's intent is to strip Apple of all control of its own platform and to force them to let thieves and child predators set up shop there, then it may come to a point where Apple would be better off withdrawing from that market, and EU can make its own phones. 

You’re a brainwashed zombie.

It's easy to call someone that, but at the same time you can't help but wonder how hard the EU would be going against Apple on these matters if they themselves had an "Apple" of their own...

Apples only argument left here is that it’s unfair to allow developers to use their highly valued platform to advertise transactions *off* of it. The solution here is obviously alternate app stores and sideloading, which Apple also obviously doesn’t want but in the long term could do less damage than if the steering took place from within their App Store walls. 

Didn't think that was possible. What a fail.

No Face ID? No buy. Foldables are overrated.
