Just like car manufacturers. Never buy the first few model years of a new product or platform.
- Night_Thastus 3y agoThere is no consensus on what the "S" stood for, and Apple never officially made any statement on the matter. "Successor" or "Second" or "Speed" all more or less fit, but there's no real answer. Generally, "S" just indicated a marginal upgrade over the base model.
- sroussey 3y agoHe is talking about the original iPhone. Not the 4S or whatever. Same kind of quote: the S in IoT stands for security! The S is missing, so security was missing too!
