People compare Tim Cook and Steve Jobs too much. They are completely different people so of course their ideas are different. And Steve even said he was glad Tim wasn’t a carbon copy of him. Tim has managed to increase Apples net worth. I don’t deny that Steve was epic but Tim is great in his own way as well
Apple’s net worth is absolutely irrelevant to me as a customer. As a customer, there is no doubt that the quality of Apple products and just general rigour in their approach has significantly decreased.
He may not have that on stage presence that Steve Jobs had, but I feel he is a much better CEO and a much better person. Compare the company in 2011 and now. It has grown leaps and bounds.
He is innovative, but in a more refined way. Just take the example of the accessibility. That did not mean jackshit to Jobs, but it does to Tim. Enabling more people with various accessibility-difficulties requires innovative mindset, and while he might not be an engineer, he is the one who has figured out this is important to the brand. He also said recently, that he does not want the company the be the very first in introducing new tech; but they work on perfection, and that is exactly what is happening.
Look at one of their main flagship the Iphone, it hasn't been innovative for the last couple years. The competition has already is ahead of the Iphones, this is because they are taking little steps that other tech companies had already token, like how Samsung came first with the face scanner. Which you can see they haven't refined or perfect any kind of technology (which that's what Apple stand for), like the face scanner it failed the tech demo MULTIPLE times and yet they want to refine/perfect it. Also you forgot the Apple Pen, which it was a 99$ joke that you have to charge it by plugging it into the bottom of the Ipad's charging port, which that is sacrificing the elegance of the design and function. Apple hasn't made anything new since Jobs died except from some exceptions like the Apple Watch. Yet those devices are not refined or even innovative, since the Apple Watch haven't even had ceullar data for the longest time until now and the completion already has this. Which if Tim Cook was not for the money, why is the Mac and MacBook line overpriced, since they charged 200$ more than the actual cost of the product. Which if Tim Cook wasn't for the money he would charge it for 100$ more than the actual cost so they pay for manufacturing and employees. Which numerous of consumers are leaving the ignorance of Apple and the empty shell of Steve Job's legacy, for those who are ignorant to rot and suffer. I'm not a fanboy of anything, I'm just here telling the cold hard truth you fanboys.
The face scanner failed in the demo because a worker had used it before the demo was given to Craig to show at the keynote. 9to5mac.com/2017/09/13/face-id-demo-fail-details/ As for Apple not making anything new since Jobs died... well, think about it... do they really need to? All the products are perfect the way they are. I'm not crazy about the MacBooks but personally, I've always been an iMac user... never a fan of laptops ( although I use an iPad mini 4... but thats mostly for reading books/news, etc. ) The people that i do know who have gotten one have generally been happy with them, and recently an article showed that the sales continue to go up and they now beat Asus and are ranked number 4 press.trendforce.com/press/20171115-3020.html Samsung coming out first with something means nothing. I'll never forget when there were rumors, about 2 years before the Apple Watch came out, that Apple might do one... 6 months after that rumor, Samsung came out with their watch. They don't care to make a great product, they want to be the first. Apple is the opposite, and it might hurt them in the short run... but Apple has always been about the long run. That is why they are where they are and are heading to be the first trillion dollar company.
I have a tremendous amount of respect for Tim Cook. Steve made the right choice when appointing a successor. Although I agree that costs are continuing to skyrocket on Apple products I won’t leave. Yes I suppose I am locked in their ecosystem but it’s not a bad place to be locked in. Privacy, efficiency & simplicity matter to me. If that makes me a simpleton then so be it! 😊✌🏽
Why are most of this comments are hating on Tim for being gay who cares what he is or not it's his business not ours as long as he does his job that's what matters so no more mean comments
He quietly visited Singapore and spent most of his time interacting with Paralympic athletes. It explains a lot why Apple product has more accessibility features than all the other phone companies combined. *an iphone user*
Most surprising thing was that he was gay. No offense cuz gay people r regular people. I just thought it was surprising cuz I didn't know and thought he was straight
There's huge irony in saying "being gay is the greatest gift God has given me". As a Christian, I do not hate gays and you will never see me bashing a gay person for his sexual preference, I'll treat him like I treat anybody else. However involving God is kinda ironic because, well he's really against that.
Stipe Milardović You shall not lie with a male as with a woman; it is an abomination. (Leviticus 18:22) This is why I say it’s ironic to include God, because God won’t give you a “gift” that he considers an abomination. Once again, I will not hate an homosexual person, but I can’t agree with an idea that my God disagrees.
and you know bible is true, and it reflects the words of this so called "God" because...? It also says to stone people who don't worship shabat? Do you worship shabat, and do you stone people who do not?
People only hate on him because he’s gay other wise he would’ve been praised. It’s shameful that a person’s sexuality can change a lot of perceptions, instead of looking at a person’s trait low IQ bigots decides to hate on someone solely based on whom they’re attracted to.
I don’t know but I got impression that gym counterbalance many damages that lack of sleep causes to your body. Isn’t it ? (ie sleeping 3hours/day 356days a year)
1. Tim Cook cares about bicycles, social rights and basically anything more than Apple. 2. Tim Cook says Jobs told him to be first Tim Cook rather than second Steve Jobs, but he keeps repeating “…but I knew Steve…” 3. Usability of Apple products developed under Tim Cook became obscure even for IT specialists… 4. Apple Watch was not biased for health or fitness at launch. Apple did not know what this product was all about until public ‘helped’ them to understand... because Cook developed Apple Watch because society was saying Apple is doing a Watch… 5. There are numerous big bugs in Apple software that stay since Tim Cook became ceo and these bugs do not go away... 6. Tim Cook does not use every product and feature personally as Jobs did - he ‘manages reports’ instead... 7. Although Apple employees report Cook is not tyrant or control freak as Jobs used to be, they also report he is not a people’s person as well... 8. Tim Cook’s motivation is not money, but he regularly sells big chunks of Apple shares for big money... 9. In 2016 Tim Cook declared they do not keep face recognition information in photos because of privacy... in 2017 facial information is stored in the cloud (not to mention that photos themselves where in the cloud all that time) 10. …
I think that CEO's in America are way way over paid. These big wages hurt the company that they work. Employees are a corporations must valuable asset. Take real good care of the employee and that employee will take real good care of the product. Unless the employees are union.... then all bets are off the table.
TheDeadForest not trying to start an argument, but a lot of people do care about someone's sexuality, even when it's none of their business and shouldn't matter
I just can't consider him great after the fact that he is gay, I still appreciate his work and success but not as much respect, judge me all you want but this is how I view the world
So the phone that kicked off the smartphone industry, sold a billion of those devices and yet that shitty android that you have in your hand. Well that was “inspired” by the original iPhone, so I would shut the hell up before you say something so idiotic and pointless.
Steve Jobs oh so, everything tim cook says and make and everything apple do you like? But that tim cook is gay and he doesnt even show it makes you not like apple?
The comment section proves there's really no freedom of expression unless it's politically correct and aligns with the opinion of the majority. The guy doesn't like gays , so what? Move on instead of attacking him.
first dislike. I don't hate you I just want to be first at something. Also it's better for someone who likes your channel to dislike than someone who doesn't
