No, it doesn’t have a full 1080p screen. It has a 4K screen win 1080p video recording.

I suggest you look up the specs for iPhone XR:
6.1-inch LCD Retina Display; 1,792x828 pixels
326 ppi

Your response is typical of an apple user who isn't educated on these things. Thinking it's a 4k screen just because the camera can record in 4k.

Apple not providing a quick charger in the box is another scam to make more money. Not using usb c is another scam to make more money on cable licensing it just goes on and on.

You literally do not know the definition of a scam. This is a product advertised by a company that lists all features. If you don’t like it you don’t buy it. There is no scam you ignorant troll.

We all know Bloomberg is not going to retract the story. They are just going to dig in further since if they admit they were wrong it will go against their credibility.

It goes more against their credibility if they don’t admit their mistake. Mistakes happen. Own up to it and make the changes to their vetting process. That’s what I can forgive. Digging in your heals on false accusations is unforgivable.

Technically there was one more iPod touch released after the sixth generation when Apple added a 128 GB version (having eliminated the 16 and 64 GB options).

I was thinking. This is what the article was missing. Also the price points for those is $199 and $299, respectively.

220 million iPhone 6 in the world. The 2nd most popular phone in the world is bound to have problems .

48.4 million of those failing seems reasonable to you? No idea how many iPhone 5S' Apple has sold, but it only has a failure rate of 5%.

I'd agree that that would be pretty poor, but we have no definition of what they mean by "failure rate", what their sample size is, how (or indeed if) they control for abuse/mishandling-induced failure, or the methods they use to extrapolate their results to the wider iPhone 6 population.

I got an iPhone 6 when they came out (ordered online the day of release) and I've not had a single problem. Now it's got a new battery I'm perfectly happy with its performance under iOS 11 and this will only get better with iOS 12. For me it has a new lease of life and I hope to keep it going at least another 3.75 years.

This^^^ Failure rate after how long? Within warranty? One year? Two years? 3 years? I read the article and none of this was mentioned. Is it possible to clarify in the article or add an update that information was omitted?

How about apple wait before realizing a half baked product... And lasts at that

How about the reviewers realize that the HomePod is about music and not ordering more tide pods. I have two HomePods at home and I can’t say enough about the quality of the sound and he ability to understand me anywhere in the house even at a whisper. They also perfectly control my Hue lights and other HomeKit accessories. Can Siri be better? Yes but Siri also doesn’t listen to and record conversations that don’t pertain to it. Unlike Alexa and Google Home Siri listens for one thing and that is “Hey Siri.”
