Apple launches 4 new iPhones on 12 Sep, iPhone 15, iPhone 15 Plus, iPhone15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max. The prices are kept the same. And all Apple could brag about were titanium casing, USB-C cable, 48MB camera and a satellite connectivity for emergency on the roads. That is about all there is in the iPhone 15 series.
In terms of specs, features and new innovative functions, design and look, all seems dated. The message coming from Apple is like, 'I am tired'. This is the best Apple can offer for the moment. It is like more of the same. So cannot increase prices.
How is Apple going to compete with Huawei with its new stable of Mate 60 Pros with features that are far far more advanced and creative than the iPhone 15s? For Apple to compete with the Mate 60 series, Apple would have to wait for iPhone 16, provided its features are better and more advanced than the Mate 60 Pros and Mate X5s.
Take a break Apple. Or shall I say, goodbye Apple? The Apple camp must be in panic mood now. All resigned to see Huawei regaining all the market share and become number one again.
PS. Russia has banned iPhones and Apple, China starting to ban Apple products and iPhones, Saudi Arabia bans iPhones, France banned iPhone12, many African and Latin American countries also banned Apple products and iPhones.
Using iPhones and Apple products is voluntarily letting the Americans to spy on you and your conversation. Most political leaders, even those in EU are not using iPhones, with many using Huawei phones for their own safety and privacy.
Why buy and use iPhones for the Americans to monitor and spy on you?

Competition between Apple and Huawei is about technology, not cosmetic.
ReplyDeleteiPhone 15 is only cosmetic changes, titanium trimming, USB-C, colours, do not attract the techies and those that want a more advanced phone. 3 nm chips are only good if they can put to good use. Apple's 3nm chip did not add any new features and uses to iPhone 15. A big waste on the chips.
In terms of features and functionalities, Huawei's Mate series are miles ahead of Apple. Apple should not waste time and resources pushing out the dated iPhone 15 series that is nothing much better than iPhone 14s. And Apple knows it. That is why they are afraid to raise its price tag. The same product with a little repackaging.
Apple is overhyped and paying so much for nothing. Users are complaining that from iPhone12 to iPhone14, the are hardly any difference. And iPhone 15 is not much difference from iPhone 14.
ReplyDeleteApple users have been fleeced all these years, changing and paying so much for so little.
iphone 15 could be the last fling by Apple. This could be the biggest failure in all iPhone launches.
Russia banning iphones and Apple keeps the USA and West guessing regarding Putin's move. All they have been getting are just 'intelligence gathered from thin air'. 'Intelligence' that did not foresee Huawei blindsiding them. They were blindsided clear and simple. If not why are they talking about investigating how Huawei got the Kirin 9000s 7 nm chips with 5G capabilities. Fact is they were caught with their pants down.
ReplyDeleteChina is following Russia. China already got rid of computers made by Western countries and running Windows in Government circles. Now China is also getting rid of iphones inside Government facilities. The question is, when will iphones be totally 'equipment non grata' in China as well. The USA and the West wants de-coupling or de-listing so badly, China must give them a helping hand.
Putin is visiting China in October, after meeting Kim in Moscow. Why are the meetings planned so closely and person to person? Again the USA will be pouring scorn, maybe calling the meeting between Xi and Putin 'troubling'. Meeting person to person is the safest and nothing leaks out via spies paid to snoop around. Phone calls are not that safe in today's environment, even hot lines can be tapped. We know very well that the USA even spied on close allies, like Angela Merkel and Macron. Do we honestly believe that Yoon or Kishida are under the radar and not closely watched? Honestly there is nothing to speculate what they will do to friends. Aren't being friends of the USA touted to be dangerous?
When Xi met Macron in Beijing in April, Xi made sure that Ursula von de Leyen remains out of the way. She had insisted on following Macron to China, to spy on him and find out what he talks about to Xi in China. She was waylaid by the Chinese, totally ignored and went back seething with anger.
ReplyDeleteApple hits by double whammy. Firstly, the iPhone 15 is nothing new except cosmetic changes. The demand for this phone is very low when there is no new and innovative features to compete with Huawei 60s.
ReplyDeleteTo make matter worse, it is being made in India. What kind of quality control is there?
