  • Foldable iPhone and iPad will both launch in 2026, says analyst

    Can’t wait for JerryRigEverything and the class action lawyers when that foldable iPhone comes out and doesn’t last…. The standards are different for Apple versus Samsung or Google.

    Absolutely ridiculous. As a Mac customer since the 1990s it's clear to me the Mac has never been in a better place.  Steve Jobs would have been delighted with what they have been able to achieve with Apple Silicon for the Mac and they make "the whole widget" now just as he always wanted.  On top of that Tim Cook is an absolute logistics and supply genius and people underestimate how much this has meant to Apple becoming what it is today.  As an Apple shareholder I would like to see Tim stay on for a long while yet.
    Actually Jobs made a comment that he learned that it wasn’t a good idea for a company to make every part themselves.

    To be fair Steve Jobs (Apple) did try to work with Motorola, IBM, Intel, and even Nvidia in the end Apple had to roll up its sleeves and do most of the heavy lifting themselves with Apple Silicon being a prime example.

    I might add Apple has had many pieces of software/hardware over the years that they had to support or create because the Wintel market wasn’t bothered to support Apple products, Apple retail store, iPod, iTunes, Apple Maps, Apple Watch, iMessage, Apple Pay, Final Cut Pro, Safari, and there are many others…

    Remember when FoxCon was going to build a big, beautiful manufacturing plant in SE Wisconsin? Remember what actually happened? No manufacturing facility at all. It was all just a scam to please Trump 1.0. I wouldn’t hold my breath. 

     Foxconn is just kidding Psych! ….. Nothing will happen.

    How bad has the rollout been compared to Apple Maps? He fired Scott Forstall for that.

    What would have made Apple Intelligence worse was if Apple had given OpenAI billions like Microsoft…… And Microsoft has basically been given a free pass on five blunders in the last 12 to 18 months any of which Apple would have been sentenced to their usual “Doomed” status whenever something happens in the news.

    Cook was an outstanding COO. He became CEO of the most valuable company and kept it like that for the most. Car, AVP, TV+ expenses, panic move away from China, and AI… he is no product or project person. He won’t push Apple forward.

    But Tim Cook has pushed Apple further ahead, of it’s competition in comparison to the others. Apple certainly has executed better without wasting untold billions of dollars, the largest acquisition Apple is ever made has been only $3 billion dollars for Beats (still profitable and still going) in the same period Microsoft (Skype) or Google with (Motorola) both failed those are just two examples, and there are many others that both have failed on, again in the same period…. Apples competition have squandered billions and have very little to show for most of those poorly executed Me-too products.
