Where does it say "we stuffed up, and in response to your feedback we've gone back to basics"? Sometimes, people want to hear acknowledgement of error.

- dbbk 7y agoAre you seriously expecting them to say "our previous product was bad, this one is good"? When has any tech company ever done that?
- altern8tif 7y agoThat takes courage.
- jagger27 7y agoA good value trade in program would have been nice. I managed to sell my 2017 15” for a bit under $2000 CAD to upgrade to the current 16”. I would have rather dealt with Apple than deal with hagglers and low ballers.
- Spivak 7y agoI mean Domino's managed to pull it off.
- CamperBob2 7y agoLast time I remember that happening was Porsche's recent launch of the 992 generation 911, in which they poked fun at the fried-egg headlights on the 996. If they can do it, so can Apple. They are both Jedi-level marketing orgs.
- burlesona 7y agoThey did basically say that in the live announcement of the 16” MBP, but remember they still sell some models with the old keyboard, plus millions of people still will be using that one for years to come, so there’s no way they will disparage it for the next few years at least.
- pwinnski 7y agoThey said that when they announced the extended warranty program on the old keyboard. People who want to hear an acknowledgement of error can go back and read that, if they missed it. People want to hear wailing and gnashing of teeth, which is silly.
