I'm not sure if this is good or bad news for companies like Eero. In the short term, this is great news because of less competition for the extremely easy to use Wi-Fi router, but I have wonder why Apple got out of this business since they often see technology trends years down the road.
- theluketaylor 10y agoApple should just buy eero with change they can find in the couch. There is a real benefit to apple's business model to ensure a extremly high quality, easy to install wifi option exists. The market is so confusing with different standards and wildly different quality levels between devices. being able to walk into an apple store and get the one that is guaranteed to just work is really valuable. Even if an apple owned eero just breaks even, high quality wifi is so critical to both the mac and ipad product lines it's worth the investment.
- phmagic 10y agoAgreed, it would make Apple more successful in the home than all of their HomeKit efforts have been so far.
