Have Phones Peaked? New IPhone 14

And I'm just wondering what are your thoughts in general on today's phone, today's phones in general? Like, even if you're an iPhone person who likes iPhone, what are your thoughts of like, say, the previous models and the models that you make or the model that you currently have or the models that are coming out?

@Professor42: Thaaaank you ☺️…

We're going to design really compact, really awesome cameras. And it seems to be that everybody we're in a sort of this Monopoly game, and no pun intended, but we're sort of trying to lock the market down. And that's what I see. And so I agree with what you shared wholeheartedly in the idea or conceptualization that perhaps phones have peaked

To be honest, I just kind of think we're doing too much at this point. I think that phones are so technologically advanced, like, there's really no reason to be coming out with newer versions, because we don't need newer versions. And I feel like a lot of iPhone features that are advertised and have been being advertised over the past few years are features that I don't even use

And I was honestly intimidated by the idea of getting an iPhone because I was like, how do you operate a phone that doesn't have actual buttons? And it actually ended up being the most user friendly phone for me to learn how to use. So I've been with iPhone since 2011. I currently have an iPhone X. I am not one of those people that need to upgrade every single time they come out with a new phone

I'm not sure if you're aware about it, but a lot of my friends had older iPhones and I had this one friend who held onto like the iPhone four, well into, I think it was iPhone Seven came out and he finally upgraded. And I said, hey, why did you finally upgrade? He said they pushed a software update. My phone was pretty much just not working anymore. Like it was working but it was super slow

And it's the same jokes every year, but iPhone is still the top now, the top selling phone in America. At one point, Android was the top selling. And it's kind of unfair being that android is an OS that's on Samsung, Sony, bunch of other devices, and iPhone now has topped that. So I think it's an old joke to say iPhone, they keep making the same phones. Obviously they're a hit if they keep making it

Hey. So my my main answer to you short answer is is no, I don't think they've improved. I think in oh, I'm and I am an iPhone person, so I don't I don't know about Android, but I feel like iPhone has no, not improved. That's my short answer. And I think I agree with you about 2018, maybe even slightly before that. Sorry, I got interrupted for a second, but yeah
