  • Android Xiaomi Mi 8 shamelessly copies iPhone X

    but ... but ... when the 'notch' first appeared all the Apple haters mocked it!
    Stages of Apple Hatred:

    Stage 1: What a dumb move by Apple.

    Stage 2: Apple wasn't the first to offer this.

    Stage 3: Everyone is doing it because it was the obvious move all along.
    yep. Rinse repeat.
    Ohh...and how they were laughing at Apple for uttering the word "courage" regarding the removal of one of the most ubiquitous connectors...
    And now, they are not only not laughing anymore, instead, just pretending that that never happened at all...and removal of the jack was just a "an obvious progression of the evolution of the design language". Sorry, the exact phrasing Sammy used escapes me...

    The notch is merely a cutout in the screen to minimise bezels.
    It is not just "merely" a cutout, because it can be done in a multitude of ways, while, clearly in this case, it was done in the exact same way the other company did it...
     we know which company product was used to produce this...eh...copy.

  • Apple & Bain complete $18B acquisition of Toshiba memory chip unit

    I dunno... if Apple sees owning part of a memory chip manufacturer as a beneficial arrangement, why the hell are they not buying large stakes, if not controlling stakes, in CPU companies?
    more unnecessary risks? They are not in the business of investing?
     I think the reason they are part of that deal is to make sure, they get what they want from that manufacturer. The fact that they own part of that business is probably inconsequential to them in and of itself ....and is much less important, comparing to what they now can do with that business, for THEIR OWN "device creating business" benefit.

    If we go by this survey, Apple loyalists are really willing to spend just to have the latest Apple gadget. Just WOW!
    Phff...Some people (with incomes of 300k-600k) buy a new Porsche every other year (which cost 70-150k new), and you are amused by the fact that a lot more people can buy a latest Apple gadget that costs 1k at most.
