I understand the need for guidelines. But I've always wondered how app developers balance between originality and adhering to standards. When so many of the UI elements are provided by Apple, an app that follows their guidelines will often look gene…

Perhaps these home buttons were the cause of Samsung phones overheating and combusting. But seriously, all phone makers should focus on safety before UI, curved screens and slimmer form factors.

Given people have different connection needs, one solution would have to include a voucher to claim a USB-C to "x" adapter inside each box. Printing out a voucher (heck, make it an online PDF), is cheaper than including an adapter someone might not…

Frankly, can people tell the difference between a Note 7, Galaxy S7 or S7 Edge? Too many products lines, IMO.

With the earnings report two weeks from today, it's looking doubtful for an October "back to the Mac" event to happen beforehand. It will be interesting to hear what Tim has to say. He can reiterate pipeline and exciting products to come, but no ma…

There seems to be a smoke related theme. Perhaps their design department needs to lay off the cigarettes.

With respect to headphone jacks, the difference is Android phones will eventually adopt USB-C...an industry standard. Meanwhile, Apple's going the proprietary route again with lightning ports. I'm curious however if there's any technical advantage o…

Apple needs to go back to focussing on customer experience rather than worry about the decor. The local Apple store here in Toronto is just the worst. All the Apple employees either helping at Genius Bar (or whatever they call it now) or huddled …

Aren't these exclusives akin to the old record labels signing up artists? I suppose it's one way for artists to make money since royalties from streaming is so paltry.

Any reason why Nintendo didn't first release this product in it's home country?

This just seems par for the course...stock manipulation especially over the past 5 or so years. Little regard for performance and actual numbers.

I wonder if somewhere along the way, Steve vision of this watch pivoted and became something entirely different. The Apple Watch needed to solve a problem. If that was to fix healthcare, it should have focussed squarely on that and do it exceedingly…

It may just be an appearance to stop the sliding stock price.
