I almost feel that they are at the end of the smartphone innovation. Its going to go similar to PC where people don't need to upgrade every year. Thats why Apple started the whole Subscription model to feel secure. But they need to innovate fast if they want to keep their customer base. I seriously don't need faster iPhone at this point. I am pretty happy with my 6. Slim factor is also not that important anymore.
I can't imagine iPhone line continue this way for next 5-10 years. They need to get into something new fast. VR, AR etc.
- rjbwork 10y ago>But they need to innovate fast if they want to keep their customer base My boss said something today concerning Apple that is relevant to this. After hearing Warren Buffet bought a bunch of APPL. "Apple isn't a technology company anymore, they're consumer goods, so that's an understandable choice."
- flak 10y agoWarren Buffett didn't make the decision to make those AAPL share purchases, 2 of his lieutenants did. They have autonomy in managing $9B (or maybe it was a combined $18B? ) portion of Berkshire Hathaway's investment.
- throwanem 10y agoI keep hearing people say they're going to make cars next. This sounds completely absurd to me, but I said the same thing about them making watches, and look how that turned out.
