Apple is playing the caught up game since 2011. I don't understand how the American media always want to put it as the top most innovative company when they don't innovate at all.

    Sorry Sharp, if you can't beat Samsung in the TV game, what makes you think you stand a chance in the mobile field?

          Welcome to 2014, Apple! LOL.

            And i just saw the article you were talking about.

                  They've always been like that (Well since the first iPhone at least) and always will be. But for Samsung bullshit like this, along with non-removable batteries is much more unforgivable.

                      I hope Apple bring some innovation to OLED because current burn-in prone and wildly inaccurate Samsung OLED are crap.

                            Raphi7, 01 Nov 2016I know its ultra difficult to bring innovation in hardware ... moreI really do not think this pace of innovation with yearly release is really needed at this point. Three to Five years product cycle, stable OS and eco-system, provide value in service & support (and make money out of the same) for 3-5 years contract would be more prudent approach. Mobile processors are decent enough to handle Web Traffic, Media consumption and other features such as Camera etc..Too many iterations of the same product will create instability and confusion in the market and within the enterprise (how many versions they can support and serve)....May be slowing is not such a bad thing....But shareholders want more profit...there you go!

                                Can't blame them for making the switch. Just too bad the majority of Apple users don't even know what this is or that it has already existed on other phones...

                                  I sincerely think there are too many people with grey hairs heading Apple. I loved Apple but every year they're going further backwards with more people becoming wiser to the fact. Only their loyal followers and brand status are going to keep them going.
