It’s just a different set of values. If you want the latest tech specs, like OLED or whatever else, then you’ll find that in other brand.
But if you prefer a system that just gets out of your way so you don’t need to think about it, and just use it as a tool to do something else then Apple is nearly unbeatable.
And I say this as a recent Apple convert. I reluctantly started using their tech a few years ago when a Macbook was the laptop given to me at a new job. But since embracing the idea of “meh I’ll just use the defaults and let the system get out of my way”, I feel like I get to spend more time on things where I add value.
I switched to an iPhone for the first time in 2020 with the SE, and it is still running fine today with no problems, on the latest software update. I don’t care about the screen-to-body ratio, I just want it to work well as a tool
- cubefox 3y agoI'm not denying they are great at other aspects, but that's a point which is independent of the points I made. Them using outdated design approaches in the past didn't make their products more reliable.
- californical 3y agoFair, I guess I forgot to mention my point, so sorry about that haha The point that I was trying to make is that a general Apple consumer doesn’t really care about those things, but does like consistency. So Apple waits until they are pretty sure that something is actually valuable to customers, before releasing it.
