rare comment said: As much as moving from a biannual form factor clock will reduce the urgency of upgrading, it also has some real benefits. Note that any benefits to customers also benefit the company in the long run by building loyalty and …

all day breakfast said: Some observations: 1) some here seem to equate a new exterior design with a significant upgrade. Apple isn't stupid and know a lot more about who buys phones and when then the readers of this humble site. I'm always up…

I can't believe that people think an even slower upgrade cycle is a good idea. The answer to all of this peak iPhone nonsense and talk of market saturation is to INNOVATE FASTER, not to slow down the rate of innovation. People will buy a new phone i…

The elephant in the room is that Apple just doesn't want to sell them as cheap regular iPhones because that would further saturate the market for newer higher margin iPhones. If anything, they want to force owners of previous iPhones to have to upgr…

badmonk said: So why does Apple always get the pessimistic short-term perspective from Wall Street while Wall Street takes the longterm perspective on Facebook, Alphabet, Amazon and Microsoft? Using the AppleWatch is a reason to downgrade th…

If it's decent, I can see a large percentage of the people who own the iPhone5 and earlier upgrading. Demand depends in large part on how necessary people perceive the upgrade to be, e.g. how good the phone is. I think we're off base when…

The single most influential improvement they could make with the 2nd generation model would be to dramatically improve the battery life. In my conversations with people who would have considered buying the 1st gen model, that was always the main rea…

I used to get so excited about WWDC, but so many of yesterday's announcements seem like promises for the future, like the Apple car, which I don't think we'll ever see, instead of tangible things I could use right now, like a new MacBook Pro.

At least Microsoft is doing something with its money instead of sitting on it.

Who cares?? Where's my Apple branded streaming TV service? And why is the new Apple TV so damn buggy? I've never seen this many app crashes on an Apple device.

I hope, I hope, I hope they remove all the ports except one, make it thinner in exchange for slightly worse battery life, increase the cost of upgrades, prohibit user-serviceable upgrades, but TOTALLY increase the screen resolution! And I want it in…

Too much focus on expanding the market and not enough focus on innovation. The market doesn't need to keep growing. Apple just needs to make phones that compel people to upgrade more often, like they used to. A slightly thinner phone with a slight…
