It's possible, but as the whole Samsung recall debacle showed, Apple is still heads and shoulders ahead of their competitors in serving the consumer market. The entire consumer Eco system, including support, 3rd party integration, 3rd party apps, first party apps, and hardware, just seems significantly ahead of any competitor. I find it hard to see how a loss of the pro market will affect their ability to sell hundreds of billions of dollars of iOS devices every year. Which, of course, worries me even more about the future of Apple in the professional space.

The Samsung recall didn't seem so bad to me. People were offered a replacement, not long after the problem was recognized. Yes it's bad that there was a problem, but they did what they could, and quickly. Apple is terrible with problems with their hardware. Look at the Iphone 6 Plus touch fiasco, and there's millions of other examples. I'm trying to think of the name of that Apple hardware fixit guy with the youtube channel who did the awesome "fuck Apple" rant. Ask him how far ahead of the competitors Apple is.
