"Could not find what's new. Any hints ?"
This sums up Apple's problems better than anything I've seen.
- giarc 10y agoIt's because their naming conventions have gone out the window. When it was iPhone 4, 4S, 5, 5S you knew where on the product timeline your phone was. Now it's iPad Air, Air 2, 9.7 Pro, 9.7, 12.9 Pro, mini 4. It's all over the place.
- lvh 10y agoThe phone is a little unique in that sense. iPads or Macs not disclosing their specific version number is not new. When you got an iPad 3, it just said "iPad".
- apricot 10y agoWhen Jobs came back to Apple, there was a similar chaos regarding the Macintosh models. Lots of numbers, letters, and qualifiers, and the purpose of a new model was seldom clear. He canceled the majority of them -- the "great extinction" of 1998 is plainly visible on the image at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timeline_of_Macintosh_models https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timeline_of_Macintosh_models .
- draw_down 10y agoI'm afraid I must agree. They must be working on a bunch of new things or one huge new thing, trying to find their next big hit, because nothing seems to actually be advancing anymore. (What's new here, apparently: they dropped the price by $70 and bumped the processor.)
