Gruber managed to do that without offering much evidence to the contrary.
Do Apple engineers and Designers really work side by side? Or is it just that Apple prioritise design over engineering.
So rather than the engineers throwing a brick over the fence and saying "Designers, make it look good" it's designers throwing a sleek brick over the fence and saying "Engineers, make it work."
The antennae-gate was a REAL problem, that Apple changed it's design for (in the 4S)... Can we really accept there is no tension in Apple over these things (As Gruber is suggesting)?
- ugh 15y agoBut it’s an engineering issue, not a design issue. The iPhone 4 had an external antenna to fit in a larger battery. That’s all engineering.
- Volpe 15y agoRegardless whether it's a design or engineering problem. It is pretty clear evidence there is tension between the teams (design and engineering). Which is the opposite of what Gruber is arguing.
- jonhendry 15y ago"The antennae-gate was a REAL problem, that Apple changed it's design for (in the 4S)" Really? It looks the same.
- Volpe 15y agoMostly the same, Volume/Silent switch are a little bit higher. And the steel rim now has more breaks in it (which was apparently a cause of the reception problems, when your finger went over the only break)
