I'm not surprised that Apple can't contain supplier leaks, they produce these things on such a high scale that tight teams are not an option in production.
However I expect better from Apple when it comes to software leaks as they can have the employees close to themselves.
I definitely dig the leaks but it's much more satisfying to be surprised by a proper presentation. I remember the iPhone 4 situation where the whole device leaked and I was reluctant to believe that this is Apple design because of the poor presentation bu by the tech journalists. Later, after proper introduction and using the device, it become my favourite iPhone design ever. Proper introductions are important, I wish Apple Keynotes weren't spoiled as much.
- johnwalkr 4y agoiphone 4 is timeless except for the bezels/chin/forehead around the screen. No wonder they've basically gone back towards iphone 4 mechanical design.
- mrtksn 4y agoAs Steve Jobs put it, iPhone 4 is like a beautiful old Leica camera. I’m very satisfied that the last few iPhones have a similar design.
- Tagbert 4y agoHardware changes are more likely to leak because large numbers of third parties are involved in the production. Software is mostly internal so it is less likely to leak. Prices and product names are the most contained elements and usually the last to leak as a much smaller number of people are involved.
