> the most forgettable revolutionary new product Apple has released.
Ironically, being in tech, I myself am not an early adopter. I only joined Facebook once everyone was already on it, switched to iPhone once the majority of people I knew had one, same with MacOS, same with the iPod, same with the iPad, same with the Apple Watch (actually got my first one as a gift, and returned it because I didn't think I'd use it, but bought it a year later and it hasn't left my wrist in 5+ years). And I'm still waiting to buy an EV until after I hear people stop complaining about issues owning them.
Were all of those Apple products an overnight success with hype continuing 6 months after release? Or did they take a while to catch on, thanks to people like me who wait until the product isn't in "early adopter" mode?
- Shawnj2 3y agoI think the iPad and the watch were the most successful immediately but even then they had considerable redesigns.
