Innovation does not always mean new products. Innovations can also be applied to the current existing products line. FaceID was innovation and regardless of your personal view, MBP TouchBar was innovation. Even invisible things like the new cooling system design was also innovation. There were plenty of innovations, just because it's not something unthinkable like Money Machine or Flying Toilet does not mean it wasn't.

Just to clarify something because it seems people often mix up between Apple 'copying' and Huawei 'cloning'. When a company steals an idea from others and implement their own to make it works better, it's acceptable by any standard, even you can call that a smart move. But when a company not only steal an idea, but also the implementation (how it was done), the design (how it will look to the potential buyer), the function (fall detection), the method down to the size of bolts and nuts, it's considered 'theft', 'unacceptable', 'cloning' in any standards. What Huawei did with AppleWatch is the later, it is not even remotely close to Apple 'copying wireless charging' for example.

I really love AppleWatch, especially the latest Series 4, after using my Original Series for 3 years. The new AW S4 'feels' like a revolutionary product. It has bigger screen, it has better look with less bezel, it feels so good on the wrist, it charges superfast (1.5 hours from 0 to 100%) so I still can wear it at nighttime (I use Sleep Apps) and fully charge it during shower and breakfast time.

Let the war begin!!

I wonder if the media will have a frenzy over these scumbags like they did when 14 iPhones bent in 2014?

The media is already skewering Apple for having too much power over Google and Facebook. One headline starts with “We should all be worried about how much power Apple has”. I kid you not. Google and Facebook blatantly violated the terms of their enterprise development certificate but Apple is portrayed as the evil one for kicking them in the balls for it. 

It's media's new mantra: if it's negative Apple news, it leads! 

Or if it's positive Apple news, let's somehow make it a negative one, it leads!

Apple,you are business and while holding privacy Ethics torch, at the end of day you are a business to make money for shareholders and employees.  Stop this die-hard privacy triumph. Most people outside USA(may be some Europeans) don't even care privacy long as you sell your products and services cheap. Sorry, Money talks,walks, and everything else for most people in world...

How many people on Apple products related websites like Apple-insider,9to5Mac,MacRumers,etc come and say give me privacy at any cost ? Most say, Apple products are expensive even thought they like to own.

It's exactly because Apple is in business, privacy is important for it's one of the feature Apple push for high and ultra high end phones. Without that differentiator, iPhone will just be another cheap Android phones.
