> Are we disconnected from reality here? Yes, Apple has been blind to the actual humans using their products for some time now. Apple's fandom would probably quote statistics about demand while failing to realise that normal people don't want to buy a new phone unless they have to. Riding the hype and focus groups can only do so much. So everyone is getting suboptimal AI now, instead of say longer battery life.

There are over 2 BILLION iOS devices in the wild and I doubt it's because "Apple has been blind to actual humans using their products for some time now". The purest test of whether you understand people's needs is if people buy your products with their hard earned cash. And then they do it again and again and again over a long period of time.
