What I shared on Twitter, and a bit more…
Broadly speaking, #Nintendo has been playing catch up since #Sony introduced first PlayStation. They have not been industry leader since.
Totally shattered my #iPhone6Plus screen. Back on #iPhone5s and I still love the size of it. I wish #Apple will keep making 4-inch phones!
Is it that hard to believe #Apple won’t need to update #AppleWatch every year to succeed?
#AppStore downtime on Wednesday had around a 20% hit to our daily revenue. A reminder for app business to budget for unexpected events.
The new #MacBook will eventually replace #MacBookAir when #Apple can satisfy the initial demand and have 11-inch and 13-inch versions.
Next #AppleTV will have 4k support with faster wifi. Until then, Roku and others can keep fragmenting rest of the market with many devices.
With 25 million #AppleTV sold, it’s a great platform for content providers like #HBO to sell subscriptions. Can also watch on iPhone & iPad.
#AppleTV is now a stable live broadcasting platform. Took #Apple years to master this. I wish they had it years ago for Steve’s keynotes.
Spend $10k+ on a watch and you will expect it to last a lifetime. You will have to pay a few hundred dollars to service it every few years.
Cost of electronic components inside #AppleWatch should be well under $100. Can easily be replaced or upgraded as part of regular servicing.
Lower end #AppleWatch and Apple Watch Sport might be “disposable” after a few years. But the Edition watches will be upgradeable for sure.
Will #USB-C replace #Lightning in future iPhone or iPad? Or will it be fully wireless by then?
