Aapl as many others lives on excelent branding management. Sure they have plenty of cash to buy one or several plants all around world, or even built a new their own set of industrial actives. They are not dumb to follow that path. Branding needs more branding, strong names. Do you want a strong name? PORSCHE. Yep, solid german reputation, they still built dream cars, they have the skills, expertise to make a common ground w/ other solid brand as AAPL. Thats why I sugested VW, where Porsche has more than 50% control interest.
Iphone 13 reveals not much new, but 120fps screen, 1tb storage which is pretty damn impressive that we are there now.
My company gave me an iPhone SE a few months ago; it was my first iPhone. Mobile phones, same way as cars, I never gave a damn about them. As long as they do what it their maim role it´s ok for me… To be completly honest it was somehow a disapointment. One iPhone is just a regular phone with some issues… Simple things I was used to do with a Samsung, like doing a Shazam on a tune while driving…forget it. You will need to have an special account with Apple to do what you used to do. It will my first and last iPhone. But I will keep my Apple shares for the long run, there are still many dumb people in the world, brand followers, that will maintain the hype.
Hmm. Im late to respond to rg7803’s post about owning iphone. i have to say, ive been on both platforms. Had iphone, then samsung, then back to iphone. I was/am not particularly brand loyal to a phone either. I actually switched to droid for the freedom. I felt like iphone had me too handcuffed. I now feel changes have been made for the better. That or i just gave up some free internet jailbroke type freedoms, for ease of use. idk what u mean about shazam. I never have a problem. Unless u are talking about not having an apple id? But with one, things become so much more streamlined and user friendly than on droid. Especially using face id and keychain. At least in my experience. And to that, droid would lock me out when i charged from certain vehicles because it determined it wasnt safe. It really peeved me when i was passenger and still couldn't use my phone while charging. I later learned to get a portable charger without the extra communicating line. But i didnt feel i should have to. on droid, i also got tired of having to organize folders. And group texts were a pain in the ass. Keeping up with the ever evolving password requirement changes and updates for all my accounts. I had to keep them on the notepad and update seemingly daily. (All done with face id now) Maybe its gotten better there. Idk. Its been a couple yrs, but ive never been happier with the functionality of a phone, than the 11 that i have now. Until it seemed to start acting up just before the new phone release….black helicopters….
Bunch of Malarkey. LoL. I Will be a Buyer adding to my Very Long Position if we see it in the 130's. -IndependentCandy14
Who here is buying the new Iphone 15? I remember us discussing this years ago. As technology improves, the update cycle is less and less of an improvement over the previous generation.
