My god Jonathan Ive is such a tool bag. He talks like he invented manufacturing, and production lines and the Internet.
Plus he talks real slow like every single word he says is genius, giving you time to absorb it when in actual fact it just looks like he is struggling to construct a sentence.
- you mad?ernexbcn
- I dunno, I think he's just just being really damn good at his job. Hard not sound llke a dick when trying to hype and sell something.inteliboy
- The products are great no doubt. But what he says is painfully obvious, stuff any average designer would know.Hombre_Lobo
- and I know Apple love the hype, but it's cheesy and painful. But it sells stuff...Hombre_Lobo
- I'd just like to see the company who is apparently so focused on design be a little more tasteful.They should learn the term understated.Hombre_Lobo
- they should learn the term understated. I think their image would benefit from it.Hombre_Lobo
- I suppose. as they are one of the biggest companies in world, that their image is doing ok...Hombre_Lobo

"When you think about your iPhone, it’s probably the object that you use most in your life. It’s the product that you have with you all the time. With this unique relationship people have with their iPhone, we take changing it really seriously. We don’t want to just make a new phone, we want to make a much better phone."
- Jony IveI think it makes a lot of sense. People always expect a 'new phone'... Apple dont want to make a new phone, they just want that one better and better. I say +1 to Apple, the iPhone is an amazing thing.

Even though Apple totally played it safe with this release I'll probably end up getting the new phone.
iOS has been reliable and I'm already familiar with it.
The hardware will be a couple steps up from what I have now.
The front and back of my current phone are smashed to shit.Besides, I feel these last couple years or so have been more about evolution rather than revolution for all companies, not just Apple.
- except microsoft and nokia. ill prob stay with apple though. maybecraigatkinson

I might write to apple and ask them to inspect my phone because it seems to be the only 3GS on the planet that isn't slow and has exactly the same performance as day one with all the upgrades apple have released as well!!!!! WHOLLY SHIT IT'S AMAZING!!!!!
- Lol! You totally should. I don't know a single 3GS owner whose phone hasn't turned into a slow piece of shit after update.Hombre_Lobo

The nano has always been somewhat of an outlier in terms of design. And, to be fair, it has never really been a core product of theirs. Why not experiment and have some fun with colours and such? I'm pretty sure the first nano had rounded corners, so which came first? But before you answer that question, here's another: who the fuck cares?

I reckon the new iPhone looks rad. The new iPods look shiiit though, it actually makes me wonder what the hell is going on at Apple these days... what were they thinking? Maybe the iPhone team took all the talent...
- benfal990
the new Nokia surely looks good but have you take a look at the Microsoft App Store? It SUCKS biiiiiig time.

^^I'm not disappointed with the iPhone. Son, I am disappoint with the Nano. Completely off and identical to the Lumia Series, just weeks after a court battle about other devices beeing too similar to theirs. It's stupid (and they're ugly). Round icons is unconsistent with everything else. Does not compute. But whatever, they're just phones and music players... who cares.

iPod Nano interface is for sure ugly as shit. But I dont understand all the hating and whining against Apple... this new iPhone is great imo. Expectations are extremely high when it comes to Apple. And Apple is so popular now that some nerds are now hating them, like people starts hating Microsoft when they became super popular. Come on! Apple still build super nice and well conceived products. End of the story.
- Too many releases with no major evolutions, not build to last. Planned obsolescence.ApeRobot
- ...products are nice, but the politic behind, is wrong.ApeRobot
- all electronics have Planned obsolescence if you wanna know.benfal99
- and what are you expecting from them? Holograms and lazers?benfal99
- Being more green, and built product that last longer. They are filthy rich but still acting like money hungry bitches.ApeRobot
- people were saying the exact same thing against Microsoft a couple years ago. Funny.benfal99
- I don't care about microsoft, i expect apple to show a better example.
Being the best in every aspect.Not only hardware and software.ApeRobot - ...in fact i don't care at all, i still don't have a smart phone.ApeRobot
- oh, now i understandbenfal99

- man the new ipods are ugly.inteliboy
- the new ipod nano, exclusively at zellers!prophetone
- They're ugly and I agree that they're stupid to go on with this. Plus the round icons. Seems everything completely off.ESKEMA
- why are the icons different, why not make it consistent with ios'? i don't get it.prophetone
- Because things are starting to fall apart without Steve's eyes on everything...CanHasQBN
- and Apple will be reduced to a mediocre tech company.CanHasQBN
