    If you suspect the cops or FBI are after you disable FaceID or TouchID by triggering Emergency SOS mode.

    That's one reason to love Apple. More of the money we pay goes to Wall Street than any other brand!

    Apple doesn't care about market share. Their strategy is to maximize dividends by having the highest profit margins. They could lower prices substantially, but why would they?

    I expect them to raise prices until it impacts their ability to increase profits, and then to level off.

    By then, all the best richest people will be buying nothing but Apple phones and watches and speakers and cars and jewelry and home automation.

    Apple is for people llike us! Watch out Tiffany. Ferrari too!
    Stop acting like an idiot. You do realize Apple has $450 phones & $330 iPads, right?

    Canon and Nikon might as well close ttheir doors after this. Who needs them? The pros will just use iPhone if they want the best available cameras.
    I don’t know whether you are being sarcastic or don’t realize that DSLR cameras can take higher quality photos.

    It breaks my heart that Apple discontinued their Airport products.  They are by far the best built, most reliable units I've ever owned.  Sure, others like DLink, NetGer, Linksys, etc.. may have more features for tech-savvy people, but their quality is crap, are unstable, and always require a restart.

    What a shame.
    This is true.  My airports have been far more reliable than anything else from other vendors in my house.  A Netgear R8000 I have still needs weekly reboots on the current firmware.

    The bigger shame is that Apple literally invented the Wifi base station market using co-developed technology manufactured by Lucent.  For a while, Apple was the only or best base station you could buy for Macs or PCs, period.
    Maybe they did not get plenty of sells across the globe . I mean I have got 2 in my house , but now even cheap routers seem to have apps that make functionality quite user friendly. I guess Apple saw that and streamlined their future products.
