Hello Apple,
I hope you won't be offended that after all these years that we've been together, I'm going to touch you. It's been six years since we last wrote to you, and you're definitely mine Letter for Apple you still remember. This time, however, I have something different on my mind than years ago, something much more important to me personally. You know, I've gotten used to buying a new one every year. iPhone and it's just a cycle that I don't mind at all. We've gotten used to people around me changing their Apple Watch and they still laugh at me wearing Garmins. It doesn't bother me at all and I understand that you have billions of profits from it, which you absolutely need. But lately I feel like you only need them to develop products that you can improve year after year and pitch to people with the vision that they will go and buy them year after year. Like I said, I don't think there's anything wrong with buying a new phone or watch every year, I just want something from you.
Couldn't you please spend some of those billions on taking a display from LG, Samsung or anyone else and wrapping it in aluminum, adding an apple and selling it to me? I don't want an 8K display with the best colors in the world from you, and let's face it, you didn't make the best displays in the world, but at least you made them. Couldn't you just cancel the division dedicated to AirPorts? You know very well that at any time over the years I could have gone and bought a better router than AirPort, even a few classes more powerful. But I love that utility, I love that logo, and I love that AirA port from you, so why will I never see it again?
Why on earth are you selling people a 4 year old computer? Personally, I wouldn't buy a XNUMX year old car, let alone a computer. Why can't users enjoy the touchbar on their desktop keyboard? Do you think it's Magic mouse truly the best mouse in the world, that can no longer be surpassed by anything? Why do I ask that? Because next year it will be ten years since you introduced it, and in those ten years the biggest change was that people no longer have to change batteries, which took about twenty seconds, but have to wait two hours for them to charge.
I want you to make me happy, we could use your products throughout the entire household. I want to be able to go out and treat myself once a year and buy a new mouse, another time a new router, a monitor every few years, and so on. I don't want to just buy products that bring you profits year after year either from direct sales or from iTunes store.
I feel like we've come to terms with your game and we'll leave you enough money every year to spend some of it on development or miniThe production of products that technology companies simply produce, despite the fact that users do not change them year after year. Sometimes it is not just about profit, but also about pleasing fans, those who bought the products before you showed the world a iPhone, iPad or Apple Watch. Sometimes it's just a matter of not having a 50% margin on a product, but for example only 30%, but knowing that people will appreciate it. After all, admit it yourself, you're such a design lover and miniI know that putting a Dell router and a Samsung monitor next to your iMac isn't exactly the height of aesthetics.
So, after all these years, after everything we've been through together, I'd like to ask you just one thing. Try to be there for us, the real fans, the real lovers of your ecosystem and for everyone who loves you all this time. And if you want to be that fashion brand and Angela and Tim have changed you beyond recognition, then please remember that Chanel also makes handbags that women don't change year after year, but have them for their whole life and even then Chanel is the most expensive and the most respected fashion brand in the world. So if you're into fashion, please be Chanel.
Best regards, Roman
Hehe, beauty! I agree in many ways. Routers, displays, touchbar...
I just bought a Razer mouse yesterday. And I really like it. macbook pro 2016 doesn't work :-(
Fantastic letter. The penultimate paragraph and especially the last sentence in it could be carved in stone!
I'd rather not write it...
Maybe I do, otherwise it would be error-free...
:)
If it was "error-free", like your comment, it wouldn't even be possible to read it after you, PYCHA!
Calm down guys, I made a mistake too, I admit it :-)
I am now on AirThe floors started to crack after about a year. They never fell on the floor, on the apple Several users are having this problem. The authorized service took a photo and sent it to Applu and the result is mechanical damage, which I disagree with. Really interesting that Apple will evaluate the situation only according to the sent photo, without any diagnostics. This is the first complaint I have had to deal with and I am quite disappointed. Phone call to Apple Care totally useless service, AirI've probably never seen pods in my life. I use everything on an iMac, macbook, 2 iPhones, iPad, Apple TV, Apple Watch...
The service is willing to solve the exchange of headphones only as an out-of-warranty repair at a price exceeding 5000, and only the exchange of headphones without a charging case. In stores, a set of new headphones costs 3700,- for example, softcom.cz. Really great customer service.
That's a reward for buying overpriced stuff from Applu. I'll think about the MBP myself, but it's clear to me that I'll end up in this rut one day. A laptop for 60 thousand simply can't have a quality keyboard, and if something breaks, you'll pay tens of thousands for repairs.
The repair is free, and it was a year ago.
That's irrelevant, the point is that Apple does not want to give a high-quality keyboard even for a laptop for 60 thousand. And the replaced one breaks exactly the same.
and how many free repairs are there? when one crumb destroys the keyboard.
I'm sorry, but this is absolutely pointless... Blaming any company for not doing what I would imagine is quite pathetic. No one is even forcing you to spend money every year, that's your choice, not necessary at all. I can also say that I wish apple a dishwasher, a kettle, a shuttle and a smart handkerchief... but it's completely unnecessary. Even if they can afford it for "my money". It's definitely stupid that it would be here Apple was not for fans. It will never do everything, it simply cannot. One would like to suck up a router, another printer, etc. Let them do it the way they think is best, because that's the only way they can maintain their own character and not fit in among the massesonem companies. Apple he was never about to jump when someone whistles…
Of course they would, if they started doing them for someone. They obviously don't want to do them, so they stopped. Is that so hard to accept? All companies have the right to choose what they want to do and what they don't. Everything from AppYou will simply never have it, that's how it is. Some products will appear and some will disappear over time. And which ones will depend only on them, if they see a future in them and something they want to deal with, they will do it and vice versa...
Some time ago, their routers were among the top, unfortunately not today, and keeping development on such a small pond simply didn't make sense to them, so they ended it.
In other words: they had the balls to say enough.
However, you still have them. AirYou can buy Port Extreme if you can afford it – I bought it myself last year.
That whining and pointless replacing your iPhone every year is also out of the question – no one is forcing you and 3-4 years is iPhone It is easy to use and lacks nothing essential. The same goes for the Watch and iPad with MacBookIt's been there for 5 years or more.
If you'd rather LSA produced its own articles for us fans rather than the 99% translated ballast and verified news that you can't find out overnight.
That bothers me more than that Apple they don't make a smart toilet seat that tells me if I want to and how I did today.
You certainly don't have to write your own articles that readers here are clamoring for.
That's really just your decision.
And although this is an article in itself, there is still not much contentonesl – I still value it more than “we know what it will look like….” and in the end there is nothing there.
However, then there is also the question, if you don't write your own articles, whether anyone will read it.
Yes, "a year ago" they sold ipods and today they don't - it hasn't changed the character 😊
My dear Ferrari, you make such beautiful cars and I just bought your model - please discount 95% for at least one day so I can buy it too....
He probably reacted to the reduction in the margin
Exactly
Don't confuse a company with a charity - they do what generates the most profit for them... the rest is just a nice sidekick...
Apple is as customers have made it. They have clearly shown that they are not concerned with price/performance ratio at all. And accountant Tim calculated that the limited portfolio and the inflated prices of irreparable flat things will ultimately earn him much more. That "ecosystem" where they have apple users have one foot behind their neck, because half of it doesn't work here anyway and maybe never will, and the rest of what works is apple keep them under control so that they don't accidentally buy elsewhere, they are just advertising gimmicks. The router cannot be sold at luxury prices, and the time is not yet ripe for a 27″ 4K monitor for fifty dollars. But he with him apple It will come, don't worry. But it must not succeed.chat, sheep don't get sheared every month either.
Aaaah probably the best comment…
For the router, they have to solve almost everything like on iphone – warehouses distribution support firmware complaints and so on and the profit is onicom
Apple would prefer to sell computers from 3000 and up iphone over 2000… maybe over time…
Selling a keyboard, mouse and router is about the same as covers for iphone – but those will sell more
Wow, you're right. It's hilarious and stressful at the same time to see how the customer is on those forks and still convincing himself with the other pricks which fork is the best. Ecology? Nonsense, after all 80% of that iron is unnecessary, because the average person won't use it anyway. But he pays and pays, and he thinks he is a better person.
Very apt
That Apple not yet produced an external backlit keyboard with a touchbar is their biggest fail. Otherwise, I'm satisfied (if they made it cheaper).
Don't know what to do anymore?
Such a discussion is pointless.
They just sell the goods they see the most on.
And this happens everywhere.
That's not charity.
No one is perfect, so look into your conscience.
And think about whether you will do it for a few crowns or do you want to do it for more.
You're not a charity either, and that's what I'm writing about.
Do you get it now Hans?
Look, Mantis, HANS won't understand, his head is stuck in his ass, but maybe he'll manage to pull it out someday. It will be a terrible stench (although not as big as when he licked his dad's ass), but at least he will see what the world is all about :-D
Hello Roman, I'll tell you. It's been a few years since you've had a successful website. Profits are flowing in, readers are there, and so is theancand have higher profits again. How about doing something for these readers. And you don't have to think about your own articles right away. We will happily read those taken from elsewhere on the web. But how about a little friendliness towards those thanks to whom these profits are and grow. To the fact that LSA and grammar are from another world, we are used to that. Why not at least try to start by having the author read the article and correct at least the typos before publishing it. Or are typos and grammatical errors the author's contribution? Have a nice anniversary today. In Czech. Pavel
Deleting a comment in 3…2…1…
Great comment.
You could also reduce the margin and at least put your own articles without ads.
Thanks, totally agree!
I'm rather sorry, isn't it Apple can't make a phone that would knock the competition into the floor. Just like before, when someone knocked themselves on the forehead why I bought such an expensive phone. All they had to do was lend the person their iPhone for a moment, then wipe their saliva and they'll squeeze their eyeballs back in... and it was solved. Today, even though I have an Xs, my friend with a P20 laughs at me... For 15 thousand, a MUCH better camera, twice the battery life and absolutely nothing that it lacks in terms of equipment compared to an iPhone. I clearly have an ecosystem and iOSBut isn't that enough?
Yes, maybe you'll buy something else.
Probably not.
And why don't I want to be covered in junk that won't last longer than apple.
I will also buy a coffee for 130 CZK and not 20 CZK from the machine just to save money.
So don't cry anymore.
Everyone has a life the way they made it.
You buy coffee from a machine for 130, and you're still grunting ;)
But it has to start mainly with people. As long as they eat it and do not express their needs, he will eat Apple keep it yours.
No, I got it from the civet 😉
What the hell, the products work Apple still quite ok, but what bothers me is first of all the inconsistencies and design flaws, whether it's the cutout in the display or the sharp edges of the protruding camera, or the one mentioned above Magic mouse, which needs to be flipped over to charge..., a keyboard that can be destroyed by a small crumb that gets into the crack...
the second thing is the fragmentation of services, which Apple charge Even though it is respected everywhere for its premium services, it does not provide them everywhere. Apple Pay, Siri in CZ, ECG in a watch….. steel case Apple watch…. This is just from AppI'm not fair to my customers.
That letter comes to me as from a person spoiled by himself appfracture. Apple He spoiled you and now you cry like a spoiled little child. Brace yourself for God's sake…
I don't know what's sadder, the behavior Apple or that there are a lot of people who need to buy a new one every year iPhoneI understand when a person is full of dripss penI don't know what to do with them, but couldn't there be a more meaningful use for such a bundle of money? What's the point of buying a new one every year? iPhone, Apple Watch etc.? Is everyone new iPhone so revolutionary? I don't think so. Let's face it, it's all about your ego, so you can have that great feeling that YOU have the new iPhone. That feeling will last for about a week, then everything will return to normal and you will be watching again. leakyo new iPhoneso that you can use it to hunt more fish next year. Not only do you contribute to the fact that Applu becomes a "fashion brand", but only because Apple you confirm his crazy consumerism policy. Throw out a new mobile every year with the aim of making the most money. The desire for profit is a bitch, especially when it exceeds some bearable limit and that's exactly where it is Apple undoubtedly emits. Think about the impact your behavior has on the world around you. How much raw materials and energy is used to produce iphone? How much waste do factories release and for what? For your selfish ego so you can say: Yeah, I have the latest iphone, which is actually almost exactly the same as the one from last year. But the important thing is that I have it, right?! Mobiles nestarny most hardware-wise, but morally (it's only in your mind). iPhone (if it is well cared for), it will easily last you 3-5 years. For some, it may be a lot, but try to suppress your ego and think about whether it is really worth having another new piece of metal/glass in your pocket at the expense of Mother Nature?! 🌏🌍🌎
Use the money you save for really meaningful things (charity, family vacation, etc.).
Thanks to everyone who has read this far. 👌
iPhone I don't buy it every year, I bought it now iPhone XS after 6, I'll sell it for 7 thousand = -21 thousand from its purchase value if I bought a new one every year iPhone, I would sell the one that is a generation older for about 6-7 thousand crowns cheaper than its purchase value. And those mobile phones would make people happy just as much as if they had bought them elsewhere, people would simply buy mobile phones anyway and Mother Nature would be completely, completely the same.
So such moralizing is a bit out of line... ✌️
Amen.
I'll turn it around a bit. There are a lot of iPhones among my relatives. They are mostly creative people with very interesting (not low-paying) professions. You would be surprised, but some time ago the majority were with SE (more like 4-5S). iPhone serves them and nestthey drive. I'm not surprised. Thanks to several years of updates and "limited" production, it is Apple a meaningful company for me, unlike the gargoyles. Functionality and turnaround cannot be judged by poser discussions and management meetings Apple products. If somewhere the "average" person does not shoot and uses the product, that's it Apple....
Dear Sirs,
(I didn't notice that the ladies were also discussing). You are all right. Yes, Apple is expensive for many buyers. Yes, LSA publishes mostly adapted (translated into Czech) articles.
However, from my point of view, it's not a problem, at least not as much as it is Apple even in their premium products they don't think "ahead", about the future. Why is this year's iPhone The Xs doesn't support 5G? Is that why I shouldn't buy it and wait until 2019? Apple I want to perceive it as the technology of the future in all respects, not just a top camera and display.
Airport - to tell the truth, what should be better about it - some WiFi 6 (ax), which is still a draft for at least a year? Ved Apple does not even support MU-MIMO in its products (not that it would be something terrible..), Airthe port (fifth generation) is WiFi AC Wave 1 with a verified Broadcom chipset, moreover, like the only consumer router, it runs on NetBSD, so it is saved from many problems and holes in Linux like the last manufacturers... yes, it has slow USB 2.0, the internal disk (in the case of Time Capsule) is slow when sharing (but at least it can be replaced with a larger one, I myself have an 8TB disk in AirTime Capsule port).. but then again it has the original AFP Apple implementation Time Machine (all those imitations and reverse engineering netatalk and the like are unreliable - it doesn't matter if it's Asus, Netgear, Synology, QNAP..), which is really reliable for incremental backups!
It's bothering me, isn't it? Apple he has been ignoring professional users for a long time (who were once his main base and paid tribute to his comrades in Cupertino).. with the quality of current hw and sw!
Amen
These "pros" appYou haven't earned anything for a long time, after all, all the macs, macbooky, imacy barely gives him 10 percent of his income. Apple today it is a manufacturer of luxury electronics.
Excellent letter! If someone would Applu cetl. I am also bothered by the constant raising of the price - mainly iphone. Today the competition is laughing, but next year everyone will have a model for 30 thousand CZK. And innovation really doesn't cost that much money! However, the crisis will soon resolve it and all the inflated prices will come down and Apple it's waiting too. I already wrote it somewhere. The team should go to hell, like all respect, but it is not a visionary! Jobs' mistake.
Jobs had two mistakes: that the 3,5 inch display on a mobile phone is the best and that he put a homosexual in the management of a technology company..:-)
Do you even realize how terribly unfair your comment is? And how about reprimanding him for hiring a Jew or a black man?
It was definitely the best for a mobile phone of that time. Now it is no longer a mobile phone, but rather a tablet, if you want a pocket computer with a telecommunications function, which in the future will move again to something much smaller, such as a watch. And how big is the display there? You will only have small tablets left in your pockets or hand luggage.
You are also out of line with the election of Tim, who leads the company to growth and not to collapse, and that was what Jobs wanted most of all, even though he himself knew and said that Tim is not a person who can focus on the product and have passion for it. Unfortunately, Jobs didn't have a better choice, but he knew that choosing someone else would go down the drain. He wasn't stupid and unhinged like most chatters.
Ivan: Cook He stuffs his sexuality into everyone he meets and even distorts it. Apple. I still maintain that this is a personal matter and does not belong in the public (let alone technological) sphere.
Sirka: Jobs defended the 3,5-inch display when Samsung started making "paddles". And that was even after iPhone 4, as far as I remember. In this case, Samsung's path turned out to be the right one.
Clear Cook he can make money and force people to buy overpriced things. Again, there is the logic of LGBT people who don't have children and spend money on shit. Jobs still made the show mainly for people and not for snobs. I bought my first Mac in 2007 (mac mini) and it cost me 21 thousand at the time and it was a more equipped model. (for that, there was hardly even a comparable NB from Acer) New iphone stood for jobse 15-17 thousand. And maybe Air in 2012 it was one of the cheapest ultrabooks...:-) That's what it's about.
That's why I switched to Xiaomi products.
Laptop great, router great, sluchatThe camera is great, the lamp is great, the air purifier is great, the cellphone is great, the coffee maker is great (all smart electronics) – it's just a cool technology company for me now.
U AppI really hate the LGBT focus, where "Pride" is extremely important, a rainbow strap, a rainbow watch face, and cheesy emoji-type crap, plus overpriced and outdated hardware.
Oh well, maybe in time it will get a second wind and I'll become a fan again Apple.
True, they are led by a proud homosexual 🤮😳🙊
Even your comment makes me faint.
Rainbow colors have been around almost since birth Applu and they are the company colors.
You must have never been a true fan.
I agree with the emoji, I don't understand what makes them do it.
Xiaomi is an interesting alternative, but replace for Apple is courage. I have tried a few of the products myself and I have to say they are worth the price…
But in order for el. scooters for 15k, someone made a wheel with a larger diameter for the bearing so that it slips and crunches in it, that the stupid brake lever squeals when driving so that everyone turns, that everyone has to make different seals and improvements right away so that it doesn't fall apart, I would like that kind of quality really with Applem did not compare and it applies to all products.
In addition, it definitely destroys nature far more and I would not like to see those factories with minors who assemble the super products for you for a few bucks to survive and you had fun. But Xiaomi, Huawei is not being watched that much...yet.
I would guess that the rainbow apple in IT had a color symbol file (as an upgrade from the then monochromatic "gray")
I don't really care who sleeps with whom and who they love - but unfortunately the LGBT community does it to everyone regardless of field - this simply does not belong in IT.
It's not just about "rainbow" symbols - but also superficiality and kitsch.
When I look at the latest "showgirls" it saddens me how many "hens" there are talking about how they change their emojis or take pictures of pooches... that's the kind of LGBT superficiality that I don't like.
On the other hand, Xiaomi still has its peak ahead of it, but what I like about them is that it is based on Apple (clean design, smart things for people), but they also strive for their own innovations.
You too much history AppYou don't know, rainbow colors AppThe 70s logos aren't about LGBT, it was a logo Applu, which was supposed to be mainly different from IBM big blue.
The LGBT rainbow colors were introduced by Cook, along with the new left agenda, virtue signaling, and a significant reduction in white heterosexuals in advertising and marketing materials.
Exactly in line with the ideology of the New Left.
By chance, at the last keynote There were three white guys in the commercial. They played the drunken assholes that they like. iphone into beer.
Try to find out why in the logo Apple got a bitten apple. Start the team, what suicide method did Touring choose when he had to face prosecution for homosexuality…
is going to hell! Just bragging but nothing new… Above iPhone but not yet level iOS I think it's going down and I don't even have a new Mac!
Since the death of Jobs Apple series to their fans and users, because they know very well that there will always be millions of people who will buy their products only because of the brand, not because of the quality and functions. It's not that deep, they're after money, not people.
He wanted to cry.
Maybe you need a psychiatrist and therapy.
iPod Shuffle, AirExtreme port, Time Capsule, AirExpress port, iPod Nano were all great products and they're gone :(
It's a shame we didn'tdockor MBA with retina or new Mac Mini
Great article! Send it to Tim, maybe he'll think about it for a while.
Apple he literally spits in people's faces…
It's sad how many people keep complaining about something. What's sadder is how many people didn't understand the article. Maybe I didn't understand it either. On purpose. The article is not so much a complaint about the price, quality, or quantity of products. It is more about what we were used to and what is today. Yes, i do Apple he has the right to decide which direction he will take. Likewise, it is natural to lament that he captivated us more than he does today. That he is moving in a different direction than the one in which Jobs catapulted him. I'm also missing a couple of the buffs he got me on. But the main love still remains. The unsurpassed WORKING MAC OS operating system in a sensational package. I'm trapped. HOWGH
Roman. Even though we had a bit of a fight last time, today I take my hat off. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Instead of innovation, only the desire for profit. It's a shame to throw me out too Air Port, only for the In White and design Apple logo. To me from Applu sad Tomorrow they will introduce new and overpriced products again, without what they did during the time of Steve Jobs Apple Appquarry. How I would love to be wrong about this. ;0(
Well, I don't know exactly. Router from Applu. I trust companies more: Ubiquiti networks, Cisco, MikroTik
