  "Microsoft did it already blah blah"
  "Its already on Android since 2 years blah blah"

  Sorry but no one gave a shit when they came with those new technology, when Apple copy them, everyone (lots of people) care. So Apple have something the other dont have. Thats the game. Apple wins on that, so Microsoft and Android can invent all the new gadget and tech they want, Apple will always be more popular with them. The stronger win. And Apple is stronger. Accept it.

  • I don't see Apple copying as the new gadgets use the same exact design language Apple is famous for.

  • When Surface came out, you couldn't help but acknowledge that it was marketed to look exactly like an iPad, but with a keyboard.

  • Yup, it's all silly, but it gets tiring hearing how "revolutionary" or "innovative" Apple is. Good products, well made, leave it at that.formed

  • You understand you're getting your pants in a twist over a consumer electronics brand, right Benfall? Do you also understand how ridiculous that looks?Continuity
  • people get annoyed with Apple because of the way they market other peoples ideas in a smug / dishonest way.fadein11
  • If you want to pay twice the price for the same technology in a handset that's twice as likely to break when dropped... Feel free! Haha

  • Benfall was just explaining how it works. Apple are better at branding and presenting a consistent unified vision of their productsyuekit
