Tim was very hyper focused on profit and he certainly did his job well. But I’m excited for Ternus to accelerate the design changes more often with the iPhone.

That’s not gonna happen. No super acceleration you’re dreaming of.

Hope Ternus takes the path of Steve jobs (more focussed towards groundbreaking innovation)
@housepianist

“Groundbreaking” is a very hard thing to come by nowadays. We’ve reached peak innovation with today’s devices so unless there’s something truly innovative, everything is mostly incremental upgrades and updates. We see this from Apple, Google, Samsung, etc.
And besides, people really don’t know what innovation means. They’re looking for some kind of magic tricks or a one-trick pony that dazzles them for 15 minutes before they become bored again.
Steve Jobs once said that people don’t know what they want. You have to tell them what they want. I guarantee that whatever Ternus comes out with, it will never be innovative because people will simply decide that it’s not. Ternus will come out with whatever can be innovative and you’ll just have to accept it.

@varunprakash5 sadly that’s not the case, he decided to take up alternative health measures instead of going to chemo early.

He did a great job. He swung the bat at creating innovating products. He also squeezed every last ounce of profit from the lineup. You know this videos of people in other countries making olive olive by turning the crank as hard as they could to compress the olives and then it has a little funnel at the end? That was Apple with the profit.

@LoganCableTech

I feel this is fitting for Tim Cook’s first outing.
The 4S had Siri and had, by far, the worst battery life I’ve ever dealt with on an iPhone. It just got worse over time. I just couldn’t use the dang thing without it getting warm and killing the battery. The 4 was much, much better, in terms of usability.
It was the fastest thing with the newest thing, Siri, but it just didn’t feel the same.
You have to hand it to Tim, though, he made Apple into what they are today: a big behemoth of a tech company.
See ya round, Tim.

September 1, 2026 at 1:09 pm
It is crazy to think how this presentation sits closer to the original iPod launch than it does today. Yet at that time, it seemed like that original iPod launch was so long ago. Now the iPhone 4S is older today than the original iPod was then! Time is flying.

This was the beginning of mediocre products. I remember when the 6 Plus came out and it was the exact same phone software wise. They did NOTHING to use the extra space. That’s when I knew it was time to jump ship and I’m glad I did.

I didn’t get an iPhone until the five but, this will always be a special product because it was the first one that Blind people could really do a lot with because up until then voiceover ran, but we had to use an external keyboard or we had to find the keys and tap on them and it was a much slower process. And yes, they’ve gotten behind in the AI game, but they really did start a lot of this and they started it here.
