15% of all smartphone shipments, but 94% of all smartphone profit. And that’s up from 85% a year ago. You are right...they do not command a premium price and consumers are obviously not willing to pay the price. Yuck!
All Apple leads with Smartphones by a few months. That’s quite a change from 1 - 1 1/2 years ahead of the curve. Now it is a throw away product. Cook has no real vision, nothing new other than that stupid watch. The only not me-too product they had and that didn’t last long when sales fell off.
At best their Mac line will be 6 months behind before they catch up to last October’s offerings. The new MBP 15 was ridiculous. Look at Dell’s XPS 15 for $1700. Apple could charge $2.8 for the same specs but it’s not even on the horizon. That’s the point, Apple same specs, me-too products.
September and October was nothing but a string of problems and fixes.
It’s too late to argue with apple trolls and I’m rambling like hell.
