He failed to mention that they're gettin spanked hard by the android OS and phones which have overtaken apple in sales and now it seems with cameras using the android OS many more devices will follow leaving apple and their ios flailing.

Apple are over confident, arrogant and cocky so i would love to see them try and take on the big 3, it would be a very humbling experience for them and bring them crashing back to earth.

If anyone scares Apple, it's Google. Google is a leech that Apple just can't get rid of. They know they need Google to help them. Apple tried to get rid of Google by making removing Google as the default search engine, didn't work. They also made Apple Maps the default Maps and removed Google maps, which in turn created a massive consumer outcry which forced them to bring back Google maps. Not to mention the Android OS which is killing Apple more and more. Google doesn't need Apple whatsoever, if they wanted to they could simply go all out and destroy Apple but they won't, they are making too much off of them. Apple on the other hand needs Google.

Oh let's not forget Samsung, which is a beast to be reckoned with lately coming up behind Apple. Also Apple doens't even use their own parts, they incorporate Sony's Exmor camera sensors, and use Samsung's displays.

So? Games will still exist.

the games that I don't enjoy, yes.

Apple is not the best.
Fanboys need to understand that they heavily rely on patents and other manufacturers and the competition.
They are just really really really good at BRAINWASHING people.

That being said, gamers will not be brainwashed by something that looks like premium product.

Let apple join in the console wars and the casuals and soccer moms will buy them ONCE, and then no more. And loose millions as a result.

Do not want. Apple products are overpriced simply because they have an apple logo. High end android costs less than iphone yet does much more.

Apple has an Iron Fist on the Casual Market.

There are obviously better Computers and Tablets there and heck better Music and TV/Movie Streaming services, but Apple is just too dang popular.

All they have to do is slap their logo on something and everyone will buy it.

[QUOTE="DaBrainz"]But apple lost the OS race in the 90's even when they had a superior product. They are not unbeatable.blue_hazy_basic

Apparently the next big thing is suppose to be Smart Watches and Smart Glasses.

But all the evidence says otherwise. Apple are losing market share to Google, their own software pales in comparison to what Google offer. Samsung have smacked Apple around with the S3 and have a few wins in the courts against them. All while Apple's share price has tumbled. clyde46

Or how bout Google and Apple just team up. If this would happen (although the apocalypse would happen first), I think the others would be such a short lived . With so much capital and a different perspective for both. I think they'd be able to make up alot of ground and fast.

Hell to the no!!!

No tablet comes close to the ipad, in performance, screen or quality build.

It's a joke really, go look at the performance of that thing compared to all the other tablets. Hell even the Nexus 10 doesn't stand toe to toe with the ipad.

Powervr gpu >>>> every other gpu being released in tablets/phone/handheld system and it aint even close.

It's the cool thing to hate apple, even without looking at whats under the hood.

I really do need to read up on this stuff because Steve Jobs seemed to have his hand in everything. Despite anyone's like/opinion of Apple, Steve Jobs was about as close to Superman as one can get (maybe Batman since batman is more "gadgety"). When I see pics of Steve Jobs with Bill Gates, I don't know how angels with harps and trumpets didn't appear out of nowhere.

There is literally nothing Apple could do to make me interested in a console of theirs. They currently have no developers or games .aside from thousands of 99 cent trash apps that have less depth than a slot machine.

But I'm sure if they did make it everyone would buy it anyway since Apple has somehow manages to make their products appear as necessities rather than luxuries in the public eye.

[QUOTE="Pete-B"] Lol the delusional. I own a nexus 10 and ipad 2, and the screen is washed out compared to the ipad. The contrast is piss poor, the only thing it has going for it is the high res. Lol is an appropriate response to the Exynos 5250 trashing the A6X.

The PLS is Samsung's own version of IPS. In fact, PLS is meant to be on par or better and and an improvement than IPS in every way, but only noticably mininimizing the ghosting you get on IPS displays and a better viewing angle.

Doubt apple ever get back into the console market since  the apple pippin flopped.

 

I'd like to see controllers with a trackball that was ahead of it's time though.

lol, after this I doubt Microsoft will stay in the operating system business.

My Imagination

There are about a thousand other examples we could come up with.

People went nuts when Sony released the PS3 at $599. And judging by the overpriced hardware that Apple has, (yes...I know they have great build quality) they can't compete with MS or Sony if they released a console. It would be higher priced, have less power, and they would change the hardware and software every year.

And even though alot of people play games on they're phones and tablets, it's not a great place for creating or releasing big games. It's two different markets. 

So I don't think there is much threat from Apple.

Now go back to whatever bridge you came from.

I also am tickled by the Pippin references. This is what I always think...

I'm kind of guessing that your a major Apple fan. So whatever I say might not go well with you.

It's pretty well known that Google is a threat to Apple. I can give you hundreds of links telling you this but it's common sense by now. Eric Schmidt and Steve Jobs were close friends indeed until Google decided they didn't agree with Apple.

Android actually existed before iOS, it was only until iPhone launched that Google implemented it into a touch screen. So are you saying Google copied Apple? Apple did indeed revolutionize the mobile industry but in no way did they invent anything. They just take ideas and expand them to great heights giving people the illusion that they revolutionized said product.

I'm sure you also knew about how much Steve Jobs hated Android did you not? "I will spend my last dying breath if I need to, and I will spend every penny of Apple's $40 billion in the bank, to right this wrong." If anyone doesn't see Google as a threat to Apple then that's just blind ignorance. Sure Google has had a great success because of Apple but right now Apple really has not choice but to stick with Google apps which are superior to their own.

Google doesn't need Apple in the slightest, they are just another money making avenue.

"Reading all these opinions about Apple is like watching a bunch of gamers who never played a game before Crysis declaring all previous shooters were terrible and contributed nothing to the genre. It's actually a little fascinating to see."

I'm pretty sure that quote was directed at me. So at least provide some information about the topic then attacking me with a disguised insult.

I'm replying to the fact that Apple has managed to market their products as necessities to the public eye. It's not necessarily Apple's fault that people are such marketing drones, but that is the reality of the world. There are several people going out and buying $1000+ laptops or buying $600 iPads for their 8 year old but can barely make ends meet. If Apple launched a console, people would buy it over a Sony/MS/Ninty console, simply because its an Apple product and it's "hip".
