  • Google's Android Wear 2.0 plays catch-up with Apple's watchOS 3, offers some unique touche...

    @amarkap: absolutely right, I fully agree.

    Apple Watch is not only a personnel computer and fitness device, but also a watch. And a watch is similar to fashion. 

    This is exactly what Google and the other competitors did not figured out, yet. They offer technical gimmicks. Apple offers fashion. And this is the reason why Apple Watch is a success story, and these Android Wear gimmicks are something else, but definitely not (!) a success story.

    It is easy to love your Apple Watch because you easily can arrange to fit to your outfit. From time to time a new band is really nice - for both, Apple Watch owner and Apple.

    PS: Right now I have five bands, and it's amazing how easily they can be switched within seconds.

    OK, so who wants to go back and pull comments from posters that guaranteed us that their quarterly earnings were going to suck because Cook sold a little stock after the new year and before taxes were due?
    These users need to be called out and publicly humiliated. All those posts in here about how disappointing the iPhone 7 is. All those posts screaming bloody murder about the removal of the headphone jack and how that would kill the iPhone for good. All those posts demanding Cook be fired. And I’ll bet not single one of you have the balls to come in here and say, “I was wrong.” 
    Yep... those same folks (and I know quite a few of them here on AI) are being mysteriously quiet right now... they must be stuffing their pie-holes with a second helping of humble pie at the corner diner.

    Mac sales on the typically HIGHER END @ 5.4 million units.

    Take note, folks. 
    Not only that, Cook says that the Mac revenues set a new record. And clearly they would have sold even more if they had been able to keep up with demand for the new MBP, which still had an order backlog of a few weeks at the end of the quarter.
    Oh and those new MBPs are such failed products aren’t they.
    They're waiting for new orders. They'll be back soon. They have to. ;-)

    Impressive quarter. The only downside is that iPhone sales make up an even larger percentage of Apple's revenue. This poses significant downside risks, should sales flatten or not meet/exceed expectations in the future. So while this is good news for Apple shareholders, they need to double their efforts to increase Mac, iPad, and Watch sales while developing products in new categories. 
    Does Google need to develop new product categories, for the day people no longer want ads? What about auto makers and cars?
    Yes, good point. Google earns >85% with its revenue ad business. No analyst ever realized any problem.

  • Apple's watchOS 3 for Apple Watch focuses on speed, instant information

    axcoatlaxcoatl
    Just keep in mind: the first Android watches (LG G Watch, Moto 360 and Samsung Gear Live) will not get the Android Wear 2.0 update, no new Android features at all, while Apple Watch receives watchOS 3 soon wit great improvement.

    Support makes the difference.

    I've been in the Apple ecosystem for 16 years. I told myself back in February that if WWDC was lame, I'm going to venture out into alternative technologies. I didn't want that to come true, but damn.
    Goodbye.

    We never needed you anyway.

    Incidentally what platform are you going to that offers these features this well?
    Windows 10 ? Hehehe. Sure, this will be a great 'Upgrade'. ;-)
