Who does not like apples? I love them, and you can make so much different things with them and spice up flavours.
When it comes to apples, I have my limits to what I think it is worth.
Would I buy an apple with a bite in it? No.
Would I buy an apple with a bite and 1.5 time the normal price? No.
Would I buy an apple with a bite and 1.5 time the normal price and because every other person buys it? No.
And still the company which sells products with a logo of a bitten apple does it quite well. Which I think to genius marketing and branding to make it more exclusive to manipulate the human mind for what we want.
They do it exceptionally well, no denying that.
What about the actual product?
Well, it’s good, it’s good hardware, horrible GUI, stability like everyone else, great design.
But is it worth the price it has? Is it worth all the praise it has? No.
And from all that comes my hate towards it, they offer good products, but there are much better out there that does not make such noise and does not force they consumers to buy more of the same brand making it a monopoly, which sounds more like a dictature than a capitalistic company.
Let me end it with those harsh words and maybe write a follow up in the future as it is a lot to say and attack on all major companies.
