If you buy the cheap phone, you can't expect to get the world's champion camera.

You forgot to use quotes around the word “cheap”, Mr. Shareholder.

New Mini, please...

Not worth the effort by Apple.

If you need it small, a new 9.7” without the bezel would be about the same size.

Which new 9.7” without the bezel? The one released in four years?

Small correction. I believe it’s called “Bluetooth 5”, not “Bluetooth 5.0”. They are simplifying the branding.

No one expects free stuff from Apple, but then no one gets free stuff from Apple: their break-when-you-look-at-them-wrong Lightning cables cost €25 and don’t come with a power plug, that’s another €25. Yes, that little white all-too-delicate 5W iPhone charger costs €50. And their phones are also very expensive.

If Apple is actually about easy of use and giving their customers a great experience, they need to consider taking a pinch of that $250-300B they made on the backs of their customers and make iCloud compelling. They charge enough for their products already. Imagine, it is possible to buy a 6K MBP, a 13K iMac, a 1K iPhone and a 1K iPad and Apple still want $1 per month to back up your photo collection.

They should simplify the whole thing and backup people’s devices for free, up-to 100 GB, and after that they should offer a 1TB paid option and a 5TB option, at appropriate and reasonable prices. This gives Pro users and small businesses in Apple’s ecosystem great options, and gives everyone else a great experience—they only need pay for Apple’s very expensive devices.

Apple never claimed that the membrane protects against filth. This affects only a tiny percentage if users anyways. People always pick on Apple.

Poor, poor Apple. Whaaaa....
