Excellent observations and I concur 100%. Apple has devolved into a somewhat plebian personal appliance peddler. No amount of “rose gold” can obfuscate that fact. Fingers crossed… they will find their way back to innovations that sparks wonderlust among former devotees.

In reply to Mac.

While my Apple devices themselves work very well individually, my major gripe is with iCloud and iCloud Drive. Since these are needed to sync my devices, it is awfully annoying when mail flags don’t sync, appointments don’s sync in iCal and website passwords don’t sync in Safari. Then with iCloud Drive, which I have to say works ok on my Mac, except for the silly .tef files, it is next t0 useless on my iPad and iPhone as there is no Finder. Why should I have to remember which app I used, and then fight to find a file?
Then there are photos. Since iOS8, the Photo app not only fails to sync all photos across my devices reliably, there is still no app for MACOS! It’s a mess. If I take 5 photos on my iPhone, I’m lucky if two make it to my iPad. The work around I have found is to share my photos and then import them onto my iPad and Mac.
Hardly much progress made since Mobileme. In fact, when it comes to cloud services, I think Apple are in fact going backwards.

OMG a label with “Samsung” with it and calling it innovative?! My God it made me cringe. Since when a copycat be called innovative and has a good taste?

I have an iPad Air, MacBook 2013 and iPhone 6 plus and an Apple TV. They all work and work great with my apple router. I have everything on the cloud. The calendar, 5 email accounts, a lot of old work data, thousands photos going back and forth between all devices and I have no problems. The only time I had a problem was when the service was down. I don’t think you points are valid in any way. I think they could be more innovative but honestly what else is there to create. A smart body?
