I wonder if the 900 million is just the tariff bill or the total cost of increasing production in India? Cook may have not discussed whether the cost of the units will eat into Apple's profit. Apple can certainly absorb some of it rather than pass …

The AppleWatch Afib feature saved my life back in October 2020. Started noticing irregular heart beats and could see it on the AppleWatch. Then it started getting worse and the AW issued an Afib warning so went to the emergency room. I told the do…

Any business that imports products will pass the cost of the tariffs to the us customer. If sales go down because of that, the business will need to determine whether investing in us manufacturing will make them money. For chip business the cost of …

No one likes the idea of paying a telecom another 10-25 a month for the privilege of accessing the internet. I agree with the earlier statement that the cellular versions of iPads and watches don't have general utility unless you are traveling a lo…

The ability to upgrade a Mac would definitely be useful. I understand that this is a cash cow for Apple since it means people have to choose the model that will meant not only their current needs but possibly their future needs too. In many ways it…

The iPhone gives Apple the cash to fund its R&D. Take the iPhone away and the stock will crash heavily. And also all the cash for R&D will disappear. Apple has had a remarkable near 30 years of success. iMac, iPod, iTunes, iPhone, iPad, m…

I upgraded last year and Apple have started that the AI features would work on that phone. So I will probably skip this year. I can understand the price issue. iPhones are generally going up in price every year and at some point that has to take …

I would like to see Apple be more competitive in pricing. Not for the high end Macs like MBP, Studio etc but for the low end Mini's and Air. They could do this by having an M2 version available at the lowest price (i.e. 499 for a mini) and have th…

Why can the new Mac mini use a USB-C connector for a power supply? So the same type of power supply that the MacBook/MBP has. GaN chargers are only slightly bigger than the old Apple USB charger. Probably don't even need a 100W output. That way y…

It still amazes me how Apple has grown over the last 20 odd years. In 2005 it posted 1.4BB in net revenue on sales of just over 8BB. The five years before that it struggled to sell 1BB per quarter. Now we are talking over 80BB in a slow quarter. …

Mango Mussolini - that's a good one. Hope it's okay to use that in the future. Sadly I suspect he will win the election in Nov. Correction he will win the electoral college but will lose the actual vote tally. On taxes - Trump's policies will red…
