This is Bullshit with a capital B. The killer feature of the iPhone were looks and apps. It was the first all-in-one (camera, music player, phone, game system, organizer, etc) that didn’t make you a bully target. Not saying Speed is unimportant...I’m saying this is straight up lying. Like back in the AOL days, when dialup was a thing, the internet was dogshit slow, but you still had to get in line to use it. Took hours more often than not. If people valued speed more than anything, aol would have gone bankrupt. People are willing to pay extra for speed but can live without it as long as features are there. This is starting to bug me because for startups, this is bad advice. It’s actually harmful since it’s all about product-market fit at the beginning. You’re better off throwing away code instead of optimizing.
