Apple has invested billions in AR/VR and is building a headset.
And almost every crazy bet they've made in the last few decades has paid off e.g. AirPods, Watch.
- civilized 4y agoApple is a proven product innovator. "Meta" is just the same old PHP website it's been since 2005, only with some acquisitions and low-value in-house stuff tacked on.
- badpun 4y agoJobs was a proven product innovator. What did Apple innovate in periods when Jobs wasn't at the helm? Apple Watch?
- theGnuMe 4y agoApple watch is great.. I mean I never really wore watches consistently until I got one especially with the smartphone as I never needed to just check the date and time on a watch anymore.
- phatfish 4y agoSo headphones and watches are "crazy bets" now. Good lord.
- badpun 4y agoApple is kind of a similar story. They've moved from being a high-growth, tech-based stock, into a stable, brand-based stock a couple years ago - about the time when Warren Buffet spotted it and added them to his portfolio. Perhaps they're also looking for a chance to catch some second wind.
- wil421 4y agoApple is easily on their 3rd or 4th wind. The Apple II debuted in 1979 was hugely successful in try 80s and early 90s. They lost their way in the 90s until the iPod pretty much saved them. The iPhone was their greatest achievement and made them the valuable company they are today. They’ve had many winds and innovated over decades.
