From the first article of this serie, we were challenged to guess which topic will come next. DED was right, this challenge was difficult, so that none guessed the subject of this one.
@Daniel: as usual, you nailed it. Great article! Impatient to read the next one.
I‘ve recently used the local AppStore for an AVP demo. My experience is completely in-line with what you said.

From my previous list of Apple’s innovations I can now add (easy afterward :-)):
HW & SW:
- AirTag

Sales Channel:
- Apple Store

BTW: the point is not to write like a bigot what we do like from our prefered brand and what we dislike from others with moking arguments (don‘t have a better wording for that at the moment), but to motivate our thinking or decision with fact based ones. Yes, Apple is almost never the first one with innovating technologies, but then it provides things that work. Not always though: text editing on iPhone or iPad has become a nightmare for me, using several languages at the same time.
Daniel is doing that very well in his articles. 
@Daniel: maybe once you could write about what Apple did not well. I mean not only the 2 most known failures they did.

I’m always surprised how people tend to misunderstand what the author is saying or be lost in details that hides the whole story.

Or it must be just political, like Afkpuz says.

Anyway, let’s try to answer the challenge. What are the 10 innovations and which one will come next? I propose the following in chronological order for SW and HW:

Software:

• MacOS
• Apple Music
• AR
• AI

Hardware:

• iPod
• iPhone
• iPad
• AirPods
• AppleTV
• M-Series processors
• Apple Vision Pro

 

Well I got 11, not 10. Any redundancy? 

They are all disruptive in their way, though already brought to market by others, but by no means as successful as Apple.

With a chronological order I’d propose Apple Music or iPod as the potential next topic.

Another topic could be the M-Series processors, or the APV. They are to me by far those with the highest potential impact for the future, if not for today.

@Daniel: when do we get an answer? :-)

Couldn’t find this article through the search engine (keyword: Netflix), so I thought you haven’t reported about this. My apologise to the author about my question per mail.
You still have my full support. Keep up the good job.
Having some Apple TV 4k 64GB, I hope it will last long, because I don’t really need better HW.

Hi Daniel, I‘m sorry to read that you had a bad time, but happy, very happy, that it’s behind you. I’ve always enjoyed to read you and I can’t wait for your next article. You were one of the main reasons, some years ago, why I took an abonnement to AppleInsider. I really like the way you enlighten subjects.
That’s why, to answer your question, I’d like to read your opinion/vision on your last question: what will/can be the killer app(s) and/or the valuable experience(s) for the AVP? 
Keep safe and healthy.

I was very skeptic before the presentation that this kind of product could be for me, even if Apple would have designed it. I convinced myself that this will definitely not be for me in any way. What for having such huge glasses (see the rumours on it) on the head trying to watch something and being completely outside of the real world, like shown on some SF movies…
I just want one! Almost all the use-cases shown fit to my personal uses, except for games. My computer screen is never huge enough, my TV is not large enough, photos always look small, and I can’t do anything else while watching… But Apple did it again! I just want to have one! Or two, for my wife.
Back to reality, I’ll at least have to wait until it’ll be available where I live, and I’ll need to save some money money too. Haven’t planned to change our AV devices any soon, so patience comes first.
Being able to analyse the capabilities of the device and the work behind, I think it will be a greater revolution than the iPhone was. 
To the haters: don’t worry, Apple is doomed and the earth is flat…
