Steve Jobs wasn’t entirely wrong about the iPhone screen size. The iPhone 5 was actually the last iPhone he had been working on up until he died. He might have considered larger displays later on if he was alive to see the competition with Android
yeah but he was wrong because he thought that smaller screens were better than larger screens even tho people saw larger screens and immediately wanted it
The G4 cube may have been a business failure, however it absolutely is a design success. The computer is so beautifully designed. It would not look out of place of desktop today. I wish more computers looks like that.
I had no idea how clever the G4 cube was in terms of its build. I just remember it being slated and then disappearing. How it opened to access the internals for maintenance and upgrades is very impressive. The more videos I watch on this channel the more I'm seeing that Apples, during the Steve Jobs era, is they were actually easy to work on and upgrade yourself.

I'm glad you didn't bring the pencil thing up, because most people misinterpret and make fun of it. Yes, Jobs said that using a pencil with a touch device is dumb, but this was during the iPhone event where he talked about the main input method. And the Apple Pencil we know today is exclusive for the iPad and is never marketed as the main input method. The focus is on taking notes and doing creative tasks, where the pencil makes sense.

Good video as usual Greg, but I disagree with your view about the web apps error you mention. One reason not to allow native apps in the iphone early days was that the device was computationally very weak, barely capable of running Apple’s own very good apps. They feared, with good reason, that if they opened the gates to developers, low quality, not fully optimized apps could degrade the user experience, and the iPhone overall reputation. There you have it. Was this a mistake? I don’t think so...
More likely they just didn't have time to write an Sdk for the first iphone. It was already enough work to write a browser, and other preinstalled apps.
I think in the longer run Steve Jobs was correct about the iPad screen size. Rn virtually no one buys the iPad mini and it hasn’t really been updated aswell. Although the IPad mini was a success at launch, I think it was just playing catch up to customer demand and not actually the needs. We can see that in the longer how it turned out.
Could also be the fact that at iPad mini's launch there was only iPhone 5, which was only a slightly longer version of the original iPhone. While I can understand the idea behind having a larger screen on your phone if you only have one mobile device to do things, I definitely don't see the point behind having a iPad screen size as small as an iPhone screen now that we have a Pro Max version of it. Their purpose just simply overlap too much. I still firmly believe in Jobs' argument about a small iPhone screen: it's so important to be able to reach every corner of the screen with one hand that it still annoys me to this day I can't do it anymore on my iPhone 12 (did't by a mini tho just cuz I thought it'd be easier to get accessories for it)

@@dengamleidiot wow you really changed my perspective. I should use my time more wisely like you did to post this comment. Thank you for you immense wisdom.
I have actually used a few PowerMac G4 towers an the idea of a silent, powerful G4 class computer was appealing. One PowerMac G4 had been dubbed the wind tunnel, I'll let you guess why. An office or a classroom populated by 20-30 loud computers will make you long for quiet. That many noisy computers will drown a teacher's voice and make normal conversations difficult, forcing everyone to talk louder which of course makes the problem worse. I have been in those environments both to work in and visit. Every manager admitted to never have considered the combined noise of dozens of machines in a relatively small space on top of the heat they produce. Don't forget, CRT monitors were also major heat sources... I recall one customer who installed dozens of super quiet iMacs to solve power, noise and space issues all a the same time. Now Apple is realizing Steve's dream of a quiet if not totally silent computer with the M1 cpu. The original Mac had no fan. When the Mac SE came out it was so noisy that Apple quickly replaced its fan with a much quieter model.
i really like how despite you being mainly an apple channel, you also show that apple and steve jobs are not perfect and do have flaws/made mistakes too
@@davidjacobs6244 hardcore Apple fans would always prefer having an iPhone that they could hold with one hand since if they want bigger screen real estate there is always the iPad. And even with the dual screen option the iPhone is always very cramped. Gaining a few millimetres of screen space really doesn’t help a lot in terms of productivity as long as there is no real UI changes that accommodate the hardware. You can make an iPhone 12 Pro that has a 4 inch display and Apple fans will buy it since they want to hold it with one hand. I know the strategy making large screen phones since some Android guys might switch but in the end of the day they will come and go while Apple fans buy one product and another. So I think if Steve is still there he will insist making small iPhones.
@@whatsindansgarage2542 That’s where you are wrong.I am a hardcore Apple fan and have had every generation of iPhone since the 3GS in 2009.I have much preferred the bigger screens since they were introduced with the iPhone 6 series.I do not think it’s that important to be able to use the phone one-handed.I have also had most generations of the iPad and love the 12.9” iPad Pro.Apple’s sales of larger iPhones prove that most users prefer them.Apparently, this year’s 12 mini is not selling well at all so far.People have got used to the much better battery life on the larger iPhones.
@@davidjacobs6244 the question of “making what customers want vs telling them what they want” is always prominent in Apple. Steve Jobs had famously said that people don’t know what they want until they are told. Bigger iPhone might be driven up sales since this is what customers want. Before coming to the iPhone I had a Samsung Galaxy Note II. It has a six inch display but I rarely used the whole display since content wasn’t really made for a six inch display and they even had one-hand mode which in my opinion is counterintuitive. This was the introduction of phablet. It might be selling well since I think it is due to the mentality that bigger is better. Then Apple was making a larger iPhone in 2015 since I think that it was due the market where people wants a bigger phone. A bigger iPhone was made to respond to the market (the “what customers want” rather than “telling what they want”). But is this the best way making an iPhone? Yes bigger iPhone is a way to increase battery life but is this the only way to do so? There might be other reasons why iPhone 12 mini didn’t sell well but as long as there is the iPad the iPhone should always keep itself small. Since Apple is about a set of devices and not a one device that does it all. And there is a concern that a bigger iPhone will lead Apple in that direction.
@@davidjacobs6244 he envisioned that Apple should have adopt latest and greatest Technologies he wasn't going to adopt something that was aging, however I disagree because there is time for Apple like to do its own thing, for example back in the 90s when everybody was doing separate pcs towers and monitors, they released the iMac, an all in one computer. Also for a while they didn't want to adopt Adobe Flash because it was Aging and HTML5 was the newer than Abode Flash, and was going to be the future moving forward, thus in 2020 when are reaching the end of Abode Flash, set to discontinued on December 31 2020. He wanted Apple to be it's best and created products that have the latest and greatest, however if they can see that it can be done differently, then they do it. If they saw that they can make something that no one has done, or has the potential of being something great, they do it.
Remember when computers included a 56K dial-up modem? I remember having a modem that was 9600 bps, then 14.4K, then 28.8K, then 33.6K then 56K. I was so jealous of my library which had an ISDN line and my moms job bc they had a T1 line which I thought was as fast as you could get. I miss the 90s.
I am making this comment in early September of 2021... I state that because it's been nearly 10 years since Steve Jobs died. As a die hard Apple user, I still find myself agreeing with way more of Jobs' ideas than the current Apple ideas... This being said it is crazy how fast ideas change. I remember when the iPhone was launched in 2007 and now today (I actually work at Apple now) when I mention it launched in 2007, Gen Z folks, when they aren't staring at Tik-Tok, look up and go, "it was THAT long ago?" I haven't run into a person who didn't know who Jobs was, but I imagine it's a matter of time.
1.) Correct. 2.) Incorrect. Steve wasn't wrong there, they simply didn't have the time to have it in place for the release of the first iPhone. Heck: They barely had a demo version of the OS ready for the presentation. Naturally, Steve sold the webapps version as the best thing ever instead of saying out loud that an App Store would come later in the presentation. 3.) Correct. 4.) Correct. However: The correction with the iPad mini came soon enough, and the iPad remained market leading by many percentage points since the iPad originally came out. 5.) Correct, although his opinion is still valid, like massive sales of the first iPhone SE and now the iPhone 12 mini are showing.
Steve Jobs wasn"t "wrong". Steve Jobs was an entrepreneur. Sometimes you don't get it right, but that does not mean it's by definition "wrong". It's called entrepreneurship, with its justified hits and misses. If you undertake nothing, you cannot fail... or succeed.
that thing about the iphone's screen size wasn't wrong at all, modern phones aren't created with the purpose of being held by a human hand, i miss small phones
Anyone who still thinks that suffers from severe cognitive dissonance! The last 9 years should be proof that he is more than capable to any reasonable person.
Steve most of the time would admit he was wrong. It’s been noted by many employees that if he was shown he was wrong he would be satisfied as if he where right.
The last point with screen size is true! I used Android Phones because iPhones had been too small for my big hands. i swapped to iPhone with the iPhone 7+.
Biggest mistake was not to accept conventional treatment for his cancer. Second biggest mistake was thinking that nobody wanted a screen bigger than 3.5".
Always remember that behind every great man are those that made him great don't forget those behind the curtains whose names we may never know who worked to make his vision a reality so yeah job was not self made no man is.
I don't think so mate. No doubts Jobs was a visionary but smartphone screen sizes weren't exactly his thing. He always thought people would like box shaped 4 inch display smartphones. I bet you if he was alive now, the first iphone to ever get a 5 inch display would've been in 2018 where every phone was having 1/3rd more.
@@scan4707 People are wearing masks now, though. Plus, Apple could find a way to miniaturize the Face ID sensors like they did with Touch ID on the iPad Air.
Anyone who believes Steve Jobs was ever wrong does not understand how the Reality Distortion Field functions. 1. The G4 Cube is still the rarest and most expensive vintage Mac. Macintosh users are still clamouring for compact modular Mac. Meanwhile the SFF PC industry is booming, with many preferring a compact, minimalist Computer, housed in a DanCase A1 or SkyReach 4 embodying everything that the G4 Cube pioneered. 2. The Sweet Solution was a sound idea. Google ChromeOS uses the same concept; most ChromeOS users prefer web-based apps to Android Apps. WebOS *only* supported web-apps. Most people agree that Native Apps have destroyed the open Internet. 3. Yeah, Ping was a bad idea, but it was more a poor implementation, just like MobileMe. 4. For people with enough disposable cash, a compact phone and a large tablet are more appropriate for their needs. What wasn’t anticipated was that the iPhone would appeal to people who could only afford/ only wanted one device. The iPhone SE is still a very popular product and the larger 12” iPad Pros are much more useful for tablet power users. 4x3 is still the best dimension for a tablet that gets rotated.
it doesn't matter, it's his youtube channel and he can choose what to post on it and who sponsors him. Yes, it's annoying, but he needs to put food on the table too. think before you speak.
Steve was right about iPhone screen size. I love Apple, and I refuse to buy an Android. The problem is, every iPhone currently on the market is too big to fit comfortably in my hand. I went from my first iPhone (4s) to a 6 and hated the size difference. I currently have an iPhone X and it's even worse in terms of sing-hand usability. I'm considering the iPhone 12 Mini, but even it is bigger than the 4s and is closer in size to the 5. I hope that the switch back to flat edged helps with holding the phone securely.
He was right about screensize though. As a mobile phone, it doesn't work with a big screen. Today we're using tablets internet and reading devices with mobile phone technology built-in
Jesus I am too with the jobs on the opinion side…I also think bigger phone and smaller tablets feel bad, and wish Ping is back with the other way somehow.

I have actually used a few PowerMac G4 towers an the idea of a silent, powerful G4 class computer was appealing. One PowerMac G4 had been dubbed the wind tunnel, I'll let you guess why. An office or a classroom populated by 20-30 loud computers will make you long for quiet. That many noisy computers will drown a teacher's voice and make normal conversations difficult, forcing everyone to talk louder which of course makes the problem worse. I have been in those environments both to work in and visit. Every manager admitted to never have considered the combined noise of dozens of machines in a relatively small space on top of the heat they produce. Don't forget, CRT monitors were also major heat sources... I recall one customer who installed dozens of super quiet iMacs to solve power, noise and space issues all a the same time.
Now Apple is realizing Steve's dream of a quiet if not totally silent computer with the M1 cpu. The original Mac had no fan. When the Mac SE came out it was so noisy that Apple quickly replaced its fan with a much quieter model.
i really like how despite you being mainly an apple channel, you also show that apple and steve jobs are not perfect and do have flaws/made mistakes too
Cause that's what heroes do
I think Steve Jobs’ vision on smartphone display was always correct since a phone should be fit in one hand.
That may have been correct 10 years ago but not now.I think Jobs would have moved with the times.
@@davidjacobs6244 hardcore Apple fans would always prefer having an iPhone that they could hold with one hand since if they want bigger screen real estate there is always the iPad. And even with the dual screen option the iPhone is always very cramped. Gaining a few millimetres of screen space really doesn’t help a lot in terms of productivity as long as there is no real UI changes that accommodate the hardware. You can make an iPhone 12 Pro that has a 4 inch display and Apple fans will buy it since they want to hold it with one hand. I know the strategy making large screen phones since some Android guys might switch but in the end of the day they will come and go while Apple fans buy one product and another. So I think if Steve is still there he will insist making small iPhones.
@@whatsindansgarage2542 That’s where you are wrong.I am a hardcore Apple fan and have had every generation of iPhone since the 3GS in 2009.I have much preferred the bigger screens since they were introduced with the iPhone 6 series.I do not think it’s that important to be able to use the phone one-handed.I have also had most generations of the iPad and love the 12.9” iPad Pro.Apple’s sales of larger iPhones prove that most users prefer them.Apparently, this year’s 12 mini is not selling well at all so far.People have got used to the much better battery life on the larger iPhones.
@@davidjacobs6244 the question of “making what customers want vs telling them what they want” is always prominent in Apple. Steve Jobs had famously said that people don’t know what they want until they are told. Bigger iPhone might be driven up sales since this is what customers want. Before coming to the iPhone I had a Samsung Galaxy Note II. It has a six inch display but I rarely used the whole display since content wasn’t really made for a six inch display and they even had one-hand mode which in my opinion is counterintuitive. This was the introduction of phablet. It might be selling well since I think it is due to the mentality that bigger is better. Then Apple was making a larger iPhone in 2015 since I think that it was due the market where people wants a bigger phone. A bigger iPhone was made to respond to the market (the “what customers want” rather than “telling what they want”). But is this the best way making an iPhone? Yes bigger iPhone is a way to increase battery life but is this the only way to do so? There might be other reasons why iPhone 12 mini didn’t sell well but as long as there is the iPad the iPhone should always keep itself small. Since Apple is about a set of devices and not a one device that does it all. And there is a concern that a bigger iPhone will lead Apple in that direction.
@@davidjacobs6244 he envisioned that Apple should have adopt latest and greatest Technologies he wasn't going to adopt something that was aging, however I disagree because there is time for Apple like to do its own thing, for example back in the 90s when everybody was doing separate pcs towers and monitors, they released the iMac, an all in one computer. Also for a while they didn't want to adopt Adobe Flash because it was Aging and HTML5 was the newer than Abode Flash, and was going to be the future moving forward, thus in 2020 when are reaching the end of Abode Flash, set to discontinued on December 31 2020.
He wanted Apple to be it's best and created products that have the latest and greatest, however if they can see that it can be done differently, then they do it. If they saw that they can make something that no one has done, or has the potential of being something great, they do it.
Remember when computers included a 56K dial-up modem? I remember having a modem that was 9600 bps, then 14.4K, then 28.8K, then 33.6K then 56K. I was so jealous of my library which had an ISDN line and my moms job bc they had a T1 line which I thought was as fast as you could get. I miss the 90s.
My first Mac was a G4 Cube. I still have it, and I still love it.
I am making this comment in early September of 2021... I state that because it's been nearly 10 years since Steve Jobs died. As a die hard Apple user, I still find myself agreeing with way more of Jobs' ideas than the current Apple ideas... This being said it is crazy how fast ideas change. I remember when the iPhone was launched in 2007 and now today (I actually work at Apple now) when I mention it launched in 2007, Gen Z folks, when they aren't staring at Tik-Tok, look up and go, "it was THAT long ago?" I haven't run into a person who didn't know who Jobs was, but I imagine it's a matter of time.
Man, the way you incorporate sponsorship in your vids is smooth as silk, kudos for that!
easily impressed much
The time that I started to be interested in iPhone was in 2014 when Apple released the iPhone 6 & 6 Plus. Because of the increased screen size.
I remember going from a iPhone 5 to the iPhone 8+. The bigger screen is so much nicer especially for my big hands.
1.) Correct.
2.) Incorrect. Steve wasn't wrong there, they simply didn't have the time to have it in place for the release of the first iPhone. Heck: They barely had a demo version of the OS ready for the presentation. Naturally, Steve sold the webapps version as the best thing ever instead of saying out loud that an App Store would come later in the presentation.
3.) Correct.
4.) Correct. However: The correction with the iPad mini came soon enough, and the iPad remained market leading by many percentage points since the iPad originally came out.
5.) Correct, although his opinion is still valid, like massive sales of the first iPhone SE and now the iPhone 12 mini are showing.
I agree with Jobs on the phone screen size.
I wish there's a 4 inch screen return.
Steve Jobs wasn"t "wrong". Steve Jobs was an entrepreneur. Sometimes you don't get it right, but that does not mean it's by definition "wrong". It's called entrepreneurship, with its justified hits and misses. If you undertake nothing, you cannot fail... or succeed.

I think the cube is similar to the mac mini...
@Ishan Pandey Yep! I'm talking about the form factor...
I think the biggest difference between the two is that the Mac mini has a fan. OTOH, the Cube had discreet graphics (IIRC).

For those who think that Tim Cook can’t lead Apple, Steve Jobs wasn’t always right.
Anyone who still thinks that suffers from severe cognitive dissonance! The last 9 years should be proof that he is more than capable to any reasonable person.

Honestly I think Apple can bring back the cube with Apple Silicon it'd be pretty sick ngl
The last point with screen size is true! I used Android Phones because iPhones had been too small for my big hands. i swapped to iPhone with the iPhone 7+.
These contents are simply mind-blowing.
You should have added Apple 2 Forever and the Newton.
The Cube is still awesome and led to the Mac MIni one day.
I have a Mac Cube aquarium.
Biggest mistake was not to accept conventional treatment for his cancer.
Second biggest mistake was thinking that nobody wanted a screen bigger than 3.5".
If jobs was still alive today he would not go for the same product features Apple does every year he would switch it up.

I don’t know, he was the one who refused to leave the 3.5’’ display. Jobs was very stubborn
Always remember that behind every great man are those that made him great don't forget those behind the curtains whose names we may never know who worked to make his vision a reality so yeah job was not self made no man is.
@@tingamer2508 he helped design the iphone 5
I don't think so mate. No doubts Jobs was a visionary but smartphone screen sizes weren't exactly his thing. He always thought people would like box shaped 4 inch display smartphones. I bet you if he was alive now, the first iphone to ever get a 5 inch display would've been in 2018 where every phone was having 1/3rd more.

5:20 That was freaking smooth....
You mention jailbreaking... have you done a video about it’s history and how it came to be?
so the ideal g4 cube is basically a mini modern mac pro with the m1 chip
Its all part of the process, he still had the vision to try new things that would eventually lead to a new product line.
Bro you got me hooked 😩 I can't escape you 😭
Anyone who believes Steve Jobs was ever wrong does not understand how the Reality Distortion Field functions.
1.
The G4 Cube is still the rarest and most expensive vintage Mac. Macintosh users are still clamouring for compact modular Mac. Meanwhile the SFF PC industry is booming, with many preferring a compact, minimalist Computer, housed in a DanCase A1 or SkyReach 4 embodying everything that the G4 Cube pioneered.
2.
The Sweet Solution was a sound idea. Google ChromeOS uses the same concept; most ChromeOS users prefer web-based apps to Android Apps. WebOS *only* supported web-apps. Most people agree that Native Apps have destroyed the open Internet.
3.
Yeah, Ping was a bad idea, but it was more a poor implementation, just like MobileMe.
4.
For people with enough disposable cash, a compact phone and a large tablet are more appropriate for their needs. What wasn’t anticipated was that the iPhone would appeal to people who could only afford/ only wanted one device. The iPhone SE is still a very popular product and the larger 12” iPad Pros are much more useful for tablet power users. 4x3 is still the best dimension for a tablet that gets rotated.
the G4 cube may have been a business failure, however it absolutely is a design success I think like that
The G4 Cube was a head of its time. The Mac Mini took that design and product slot.
If Jobs was alive, iPhone would still be 3.5 inches
And iOS 14 would look like iOS 6.
Wait, he can be wrong? That's impossible!

5 times Tim Cook was right :
404 Error : Page Not Found
I'm not Jobs, but I still think cellphones must be small and tablets big. That's why I own an iPhone mini and an iPad Pro 12.9"
6. Putting the charging port of the magic mouse underneath it
Imagine the principle of the g4 cube used today in an iPhone with end user removable and exchangeable parts. It’d fly of the shelf’s
Steve was right about iPhone screen size. I love Apple, and I refuse to buy an Android. The problem is, every iPhone currently on the market is too big to fit comfortably in my hand. I went from my first iPhone (4s) to a 6 and hated the size difference. I currently have an iPhone X and it's even worse in terms of sing-hand usability. I'm considering the iPhone 12 Mini, but even it is bigger than the 4s and is closer in size to the 5. I hope that the switch back to flat edged helps with holding the phone securely.
i loved the ipod socks , lol that was so cute, still have 2 of these.. lol
He was right about screensize though. As a mobile phone, it doesn't work with a big screen. Today we're using tablets internet and reading devices with mobile phone technology built-in
The G4 Cube was basically an early Mac Mini
the G4 cube is actually a clever product; I wish it had succeeded. If only it had not been priced crazily high
Jesus I am too with the jobs on the opinion side…I also think bigger phone and smaller tablets feel bad, and wish Ping is back with the other way somehow.
No calculator on the iPad was #6
If Apple had adopted larger screens earlier, I still would be using an iPhone.
Ohh man those jailbreaking days were so fun 😅
