Instead of being an unhappy Apple customer.... I am a happy Apple "uncustomer"...
Me as well, just got tired of dealing with this sort of b.s. ...
I shall try to remember that one the next time I have to contact un-help-desk.
Well said and same... voting with my wallet
I've been a happy Apple uncustomer my whole life.
Same here. Left iPhone for Samsung and haven't looked back. Or a better way of saying, I haven't un uncustomer.
This is actually a perfectly reasonable and accurate commercial if you consider that the commercial is for Apple investors and not customers.
Not really. It suggests that a lot of their earnings growth in recent years is due to unrepeatable unnovation. For example they already started selling everything separately, so they no longer have that option available to them to extract more from their customers. Past earnings growth that can’t be replicated suggests slowing earnings growth going forward, suggesting that the company is overvalued.
You're not unnovating enough, they still sell phones with the OS preinstalled. Think @@SigFigNewton, think!
I think you nailed it. The only thing Apple I own that I am actually happy with is their stock. I hate that that is true but the other thing Apple is good a unnovating is their customers. As soon as I saw that "you're just holding it wrong" actually worked for their core customer base, I knew these people would buy anything Apple sold them.
@@billwestrick343 I wonder whether Apple share price will be higher in five years
@@billwestrick343 Somehow my sympathy for you is limited.
I always rely on Apple products whenever I need half the features at double the price

"just be a good customer and buy your annual new phone" - Tim Cook, Apple CEO
Romans 6:23
For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
Come to Jesus Christ today
Jesus Christ is only way to heaven
Repent and follow him today seek his heart Jesus Christ can fill the emptiness he can fill the void
Heaven and hell is real cone to the loving savior today
Today is the day of salvation tomorrow might be to late come to the loving savior today
John 3:16-21
16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. 19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. 20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. 21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.
Mark 1.15
15 And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel.
2 Peter 3:9
The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
Hebrews 11:6
6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.

the charging port on the bottom of the mouse is top tier unnovation, only a truly gifted unnovator could conceive of such magnificence
Back sometime around 2015 I worked in a store where we’d also fix devices and home appliances people brought in. One day someone came in with an Apple mouse, and he couldn’t figure out how to swap the batteries out. I told him I’d take a look and make sure there’s new batteries when he returns. I couldn’t figure it out either, so started googling.
Turns out you need to take it apart to switch out the two AAA batteries. And with taking it apart I don’t mean removing a screw. No, I mean actually tearing apart glued bits. The battery compartment was glued shut. So Apple produced a wireless mouse that’s charged with non-rechargeable AAA batteries, but no way to switch out the batteries once they’re empty without actually breaking parts off the mouse. I think Apple hoped you’d just buy another mouse.
When the customer returned I told him what I found online, and his reply was “Wow, that’s so dumb.” He could hardly believe Apple would design something like that, but it really changed his opinion on Apple for the worse. He let me tear it apart to change the batteries and that did work, though, but it shouldn’t be that complicated.
i loved it, my boss got those for us. every now and then i just had a 30 minute break while the mouse charged
It was done on purpose, because the apple team didn't want photos of the mouse being connected to a cable go around, so they placed the charging spot so awkwardly that it's impossible to use the mouse while charging.
@@StuermischeTage it was done on purpose bc they wanted the very slick look on the mouse. Thats why they added the mouse sleeve that lifts it up so you can charge it while using it instead of changing the design until later on from all the complaints.
@@itzkibloComplaints after the fact, blindly buying a product without inspecting it or reading its specifications, instead of just not buying it in the first place. 😅
The sad part is, every other company is following apple on this and are making their stuff less user friendly
I mean the only designers who actually tried died off health problems because of overworking,
Not to mention money cutting, it just thins down and leaving out worst of worst workers now for most part there.
And! Not to forget even if there are actual great suggestions, they’re overshadow by “investors’ interest” instead.
Absolutely! The other companies see Apple's bottom line and think we should do that...
No lies detected!
Yeah but there is still hope, like new EU legislation that will reverse this bullshits and the right to repair act in US. Maybe just maybe things will improve soon.
Because people are stupid and will buy anyway, so when other companies se apple able to sell stuff at a high price while reducing the produciton cost, obviously they're gonna copy that they want to be a trillion $ company too
They force you to throw all your devices away every two years then host an event that goes for two hours talking to “mother nature” about how eco friendly they are.
That mother nature part made me facepalm when I saw it
Well my iPad is 4 and kicking, nobody forced me to throw it away
Every two years? What are you doing to your devices?
@@nickplays2022 dude, just google "planned obsolescence" and "apple", they didn't invent the concept but they certainly are responsible for aggressively advancing and popularizing its use in high-end consumer tech.
@@nickplays2022 and what if you devise get slower and slower because they made it slower with forced updates. so so you wont really notice it and on top of that they add a feature that you phone drain way more battery around a new devise release ;)
Ah... the stylus was genius. Totally designed to break the charge port. It's like printing money! :)
how is galaxy book 3 pro 360 or note 20 gonna be used for work then? for more precise handwriting than fingerwriting? is samsung shitty to you?
to me: never
well I haven't had it break in a good two years of almost daily usage. still hate apple cause you need a phd to transfer files from your IPad to a PC.
Whoever invented that charging port at the bottom of the mouse probably got the idea when removing their buttplug.
My Fav: They removed LAN port, USB ports, etc. and increased the price of laptop because it's slim. Then you separately need to buy the things they took out, in the form of docking station.
Sadly the other manufacturers do the same. My current thinkpad is the 3yo non-slim version, and is way slimmer than the 10yo slim one. Anything more flat than that and RJ45 will no longer fit in. (Also means their keyboards have less travel distance, thinkpads are still way better than average, but I would gladly accept a few millimetres more if it meant better cooling and more ports)
Indeed. I don't really see the point of having a thinner device when you are required to haul around a giant power supply, assortment of dongles, dock, mouse so you don't have to use the horrific trackpad (in before apple trackpads are actually good), etc. Inch thick laptops are fine, much thinner and shit starts getting far too delicate for a device that's supposed to be taken everywhere.
@@delimitnc Laptop power supplies have shrunken down recently when everyone switched to GaN. Still not exactly tiny, but very noticeable.
(Doesn't invalidate the argument, we still need a bunch of adapters and/or a docking station of some kind)
@@Ph34rNoB33r True. I'm not even singling out Apple, either. I have a ThinkPad X13, and the power supply, while small compared to historical bricks, is still double the thickness of the laptop itself. Lenovo has also been on a port elimination crusade, though it's not been as vigorous as the one Apple's engaged in.
To be fair I actually came back to apple after the m1 because it was somewhat affordable even though not being able to upgrade storage is stupid but it's at least better than paying $2000, for something that overheats and has a malfunctioning butterfly keyboard
My favorite apple unnovation was when they sold a monitor for FIVE GRAND and not only did they remove the monitor stand from the box and sold it separately for ANOTHER GRAND, but they also removed any and all buttons from the monitor so that it only works with the Mac and no other other computer! 🤦♂️
That's two massive unnovations for just one massive price-hike! 😂
Yet somehow all the tech journalists and influencers _still_ found nice things to say about that crazy deal... 🥴👍
It was competitive compared to the stuff with the same tech. You could also buy any stand you want, it's a standard VESA mount. You don't understand the target audience, it wasn't the first apple monitor, it was a continuation of the older displays, Mac only, buttonless and so on.
@@retrocomputing "You could also buy-" Shut the h ell up right there. You know what didn't need me to spend any extra money on a monitor stand? The $600 HDR monitor I bought. It even came with with its own displayport cable! I wonder how they ever made a profit with such benevolence!
No, YOU don't understand.
@@pootispiker2866 this is not for you, man. That's easy. Don't be angry at something that wasn't made for you. You don't understand the context of this display, nothing in your price range was comparable to it because it's niche stuff for pro application.
@@retrocomputing You're the reason why this industry is getting worse.
@@pootispiker2866 this industry? Industry of professional displays that you don't care about because you aren't a part of the industry? Alright pal
you forgot to mention "you begged and forced us to move to USB-C because its faster, well we did it AND we took the speed away"
Apple really cares about the environment. Which is why they release 4 new identical iPhones every single year.
and creates lots of e-waste by making their hardware as unrepairable as it can humanly get
They are not identical! >:[
They come with unnovations
Apparently the charger is the problem, which has no harmful chemicals so they take that away………
Duuuude "we downgraded our CEO" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
What a boss 😎
they had no choice as Steve Jobs unalived himself (according to his biography, he unmedicated himself with sh*t)
But they really didn't since all of these issues with Apple quite literally began under the direction of Steve Jobs.
no where close to what they are doing today; back then, they were actually innovative
Tim "the bean counter" Cook is a downgrade! Thought Steve was a money hog till Cook became CEO!
Not sure about that. The last one had a factory deffect. This one already got past warranty the period.
Before removing the headphone jack they actually broke it for everyone. There was a need to add another contact to the three contact plug/jack that had been in use in consumer devices from the 1970's. Some other brands decided to keep the ground/common at the base of the connector and use the second ring contact for the microphone. That was very nicely compatible with almost all older devices, because the contact for the ground on most older headphone jacks is very close to the base of the plug. However, Apple decided to use the second ring contact for the ground and the contact near the base for the mic, and almost alll the headphone manufacturers were too afraid to make anything that wouldn't be compatible with Apple. So... They all started to make headphones that are not compatible with older stereo devices. There are ways around that but most people probably just try it and when it doesn't work, just give up... And maybe throw the old stuff away and just use the phone they "upgrade" every year or two to listen music. And after this they removed the headphone jack from their devices. TL; DR: Apple broke the headphone jack for everyone and then left from the crime scene.
it's like you can't even get apple car play on a freakin lexus (though newer models supposedly has them) so good thing we have an aux...oh wait lol
@@MrLuffy9131All modern vehicles have bluetooth per federal law so Carplay and aux jacks don't matter for media playback.
ALL These.. Streaming services...and no aux.
For the best part of 10 years now this has been a noticeable problem in the tech industry; people trying to fix things that aren't broken, changing things for changing-things-sense, with little understanding of why things were designed a certain way in the first place. Coupled with Apple's arrogance they they believe they are the ones to set standards. Goodbye FireWire & Lightning.
@@RichardLucas The iPod was a giant hit because it was well designed and simple to use. I tried the other MP3 players. The iPod blew them away across almost every metric. The combination of iTunes and the iPod was fantastic at the time and made using the device a lot of fun. That’s not “infantilization” that’s simply good design and user experience. Nobody gives a damn about “file types” as long as the thing just works. And trust me, just because a person knows how to use unnecessarily complicated devices or software doesn’t make them smarter! ;) I noticed lots of PC tweaker types think it does.
I can say with personal experience; Omega (they make drink mixers) is the biggest criminal of this, I fix restaurants in the USA, and Omega’s newest line of mixers is ungineered to the point where; out of the box, they riveted plates up to cover any access hole for hands, pre stripped every screw inside round (yes, round), leave the metal shavings inside the box, then have no way of contacting the company. It’s literally like someone’s job was “make this impossible to fix” and they did.
So that’s where ex Apple engineers ended up!
just looked them up, seems like you could do better with a cordless dremel and a special bit
I love how they made it take more clicks to actually shut off Wi-Fi and Bluetooth so that most people will keep ‘em on and wear out their batteries quicker cause that makes Apple a crap load of money when people either have their battery replaced or are talked into a new phone. Control center will just disconnect you from your current Wi-Fi or Bluetooth device but won’t actually turn it off like it used to. Great Unnovation!
I know this is an old comment but to my understanding they made the wifi search-only probably because Airdrop needs it, same as bluetooth. And for the bluetooth if it is in search only it will help the AirTags to be tracked better since it gets more accurate by the use of other iphones. I still hated it and made a automation for it, but then, I dont have an iphone anymore. But I doubt they made it to drain your battery, since that would make no sense as they try to optimize the crap out of battery performance to not having to put bigger batteries in their phones.
@@BlackSonicShadowIt's important to optimise for making claims of battery efficiency and life, but then bloat it up with additional software and features that make real life conditions much worse, so you wear out your non-replaceable battery sooner.
@@AndrooUK I assume you're not wrong. Although I do doubt that it was the main reason for this. I still have an iPad, and, compared to the Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra that I now have, there is almost no bloatware on the ios device. On the samsung there were an insane amount of apps, and lots of them I couldn't even uninstall, only "deactivate". In the end though I am sure companies have shady ways to make the battery wear down, as its a good reason to switch device. it's just that I doubt that these are main reasons for that.
@@BlackSonicShadow at least with android devices you can access the bootloader and load a bloatware free version of android onto the device.
Apple has always been the leader in "We give you less options because we'll decide what you want and need"
Fewer options
@@Danimal28 They were less, apple made them fewer. Think about it.
....and companies like these are behind the climate bs, because they are so friendly.
Capitalists: Let the market decide.
Also capitalists: We'll decide what you want.
@@PistonAvatarGuy Only a small portion of capitalists have a proper impact on their own.
However: Monopolies dictate. Advertisements tell you want to do. Etc.
Pretty normal for capitalism if you ask me.
"So you know how Steve Jobs took off the keys of a phone and made us billions?"
"Yeah?"
"By the same logic, removing the screens will make us trillions"
"Consider yourself promoted, you have a bright future at Apple, boy"

It’s the iPhone shuffle

Guess what - 99% of phones now have no keys. How's that for innovation? Your dedication to hating on apple is irrelevant. It is a wildly successful company with millions of loyal, enthusiastic customers. How many loyal, enthusiastic customers exist for microsoft and google? Not nearly as many. I support your freedom to hate, just know your hate is irrelevant.
@@modernfiddler5475If their hate is irrelevant, why are you upset?
It's true that Apple makes generally good products. The problem: Apple could be giving you something even better. Instead, they choose an "ecosystem" mentality - which translates to hostile, exclusionary design. If Apple spent their energy working for you - the customer - instead of playing mind games and maximizing profit, your Apple devices could be magnitudes better in both quality and design. If you like Apple products now, just imagine how much better they could be if only Apply was willing to put all that energy into actual innovation instead of cooperate chess.
Old School operating system analogy I heard decades ago: "Windows is an electric shaver, Linux is a straight razor, and Apple is a bowling pin."
There needs to be a study on how Apple users experience Mass Stockholm Syndrome.
The different shaped screws is one of my favorite unnovations. I now have dozens of different screwdrivers, a new one for every new generation, for screws nobody even knew could be unnovated!
I'm a repair tech and I swear to got apples proprietary screws are always the ones that strip the easiest. No matter what I do my screw driver tip never registers well with Apples screws and I have to be really careful getting them out.
And on top of the new pentalobe, on the MBP 15", there's TWO different lengths of fastener for the base plate. Most are 3.0mm, but there's two stupid 2.3mm length screws. WWHWWHHWYYYYYYY does that 0.7, **0.7**!!! millimeter make that much difference??!?! MAKE THEM ALL 3.0! And then, they go back and use Torx T5 for the inside SSD screw.
Out of all companies I’ve observed as a consumer, Apple is possibly the most anti-repair company on the planet. They make it such a pain to become certified to repair their products and they only allow you to do certain repairs. The EU needs to rattle their cage like they did with the USB-C charging cause they deserve every L they receive.
And you still keep buying them?
Just swap the screens on two brand new iPhone 13/14 or 15. Popups galore "We do not recognize the screen as an original part" even though you just swapped it on two identical units, along with losing TrueTone. Oh, gawd forbid you break the earpiece ribbon, you'll even lose FaceID and other features. Replace any of the cameras and the phone blows up. It's absolutely nuts!
I don't care what Apple does. The problem is when the competition copies Apple 🤦
Yes. I guess they see the money Apple is making and how much they can get away with so they want to copy that.
Like Samsung first makes jokes about Apple and then copy all their shít
Because there is no competition. They're all competing for second place, Apple dictates the rules and sets the standards for tech pretty much. Everything from UX to hardware design to manufacturing techniques to supply chain logistics... Apple basically dominated the world by pioneering this stuff (and it's why Tim Cook is so effective, he's not as much an inventor as a business genius).
Apple is the KING of stealing the entire company is where it is today because of it.
being old, my unfav was removing CD Burning from iTunes, which started life as a catalog for one's CD collection.
You missed a big one. So, I know someone who had the original iPhone and used it for years. Then one day Apple pushed a firmware update that was not compatible with her phone. Now, you might expect that a company would test to see if their software works on hardware they themselves sold, but not Apple! Her phone still technically worked, but it became so slow that every action took well over a minute. That was when she moved away from Apple and went to Microsoft for PC and Google for phone.
Another big one is that Apple implemented "features" that brick newer phones if you replace the battery. So not only do they use malicious updates to try and force you to buy newer phones they also prevent you from repairing the newer phones.
Remember when they just decided to invert the scroll wheel on all their computers for no reason despite it literally making zero sense by any metric and making every IT worker, or general person who has to jump between multiple machines and OSs life miserable?
Or when they renamed the Alt key to "option" even though that takes longer to say, is more liable to verbal misunderstandings, and they end up printing both names on the key anyway half the time so like what was the fricking point?
My favourate unnovation is the one where they put a data line that goes directly to the CPU right next to a power line in a connector directly underneath the keyboard so that if so much as a droplet of liquid gets in there it'll fry the CPU.

How else are they supposed to maximize profits for their shareholders?
@@dayjeremy With making quality products, to convince people with other phone brands to change to them?! But looks like they have a different strategy. Looks like they want to get rid of customers as fast as possible.
@@nichderjeniche No, no, that's how you get things like people using their fridge and toaster from 1957 until now.
That might be sustainable. Can't have that _and_ ever increasing quarterly profits
Whenever I see a magic mouse upside down, charging, I picture in my head a roach that is stuck on it's back, unable to get back up lol.
The first apple product I purchased was a Ipod shuffle without any buttons. I didn't know they had unnovated the buttons and attached them to 75$ headphones.
This was also the last apple product I ever purchased.
If only everyone learned this lesson so easily.
Gotta admit I really liked that one. It was so tiny, but still had more storage than many larger models. One button for on/off/shuffle and the rest just on the headphones, which was a lot more convenient when cycling. Might also help that it was a Christmas present, so I didn’t actually pay for it.
Give it a couple more unnovations, and you will purchase an empty box. Charging 3,000 bucks, and it takes courage to do so. Other manufacturers will follow and the e-waste problem will be solved.
Digital phone only, you buy a new phone for 3000$ from your current phone and it gets upgraded
new iphones will just be OS updates, because it's a miracle they didn't start charging money for OS updates until now
@@Ted_Kenzoku Great, it's people like you giving Apple the ideas, which make them the "great" company it is. =)

It literally is a parody.
@@mvmlego1212How can it be a parody where literally every fact presented is true?
@@Mernom -- The concrete things that Apple has done with their product lines are true; it's the way that it's framed (a feel-good corporate promo that Apple definitely wouldn't write about itself) that makes it a parody.
Remember that infamous ad Apple ran during 1984's Superbowl? The one where Apple blamed IBM for being a monolithic overbearing unnovator? Apple has always been exactly what they said IBM was. A scourge, who bakes intentional obsolescence and compliance into their "business" model. Revolting really.
Thanks for posting this. I thought I was the only one who observed that tech companies like Apple constantly make arbitrary design changes to their products --- often taking away beneficial functions --- for no goddamn reason. Watching this was a reassuring breath of fresh air.
I like how Apple was like, "Oh crap, we don't actually make money on USB-C. We better force everyone back onto a prioprietary port." And the EU replied, "Hmm. No, I think you'll be sticking with USB-C." And Apple went, "Oh! Yeah actually USB-C is fine."
I like the part where apple created the USB C and everyone else said that it was stupid and they won't use it because it's apple's design so apple kept using the thunderbolt until the rest of the world caught up. Good times.
@@WalkMrJ What is it with Apple fanboys that they keep pretending that Apple invented everything? No, they didn't invent USB-C. They were a small part of the development program, but that doesn't mean they invented it. They no more invented it than they invented the smartphone.
@@WalkMrJand here I thought USB-C was developed by the USB Implementers Forum. Thanks to this random TH-cam comment, I now know it was actually all made by Apple.
@@WalkMrJ what 💀
@@WalkMrJ Apple had just as much of a role in making USB-C as any other collaborator in the USB-IF. Kind of like Thunderbolt being an Intel invention that was reworked to be cheaper for license by Apple.
Hilarious, but also sad. My favorite unnovation would have to be when they changed the home button to a fake button that used software to simulate button presses. Then the kicker was it was made of glass. I tried to fix one for someone and I replaced the “button” with a new one but it was software locked by Apple and in order for them to unlock it they had to replace the whole screen and button again for a small charge of $129.99…
Apple will do that bcoz people like u think apple if a symbol for luxury and style and shiwofff😅
@@AJ-zv7ng he fixed it for someone else, presumably, though
It's apple... If you want it then pay for it! Smart people buy Asian devices what last over 6 years without scratches or cracks, and should a accident happen the repair is in the area of 20 usd or 50 for a new screen, what's all better than Apple! And takes less than max. A day...
Please be happy to pay more with our western politics. Pay more and get less.
I'm smart I pay less and get more
I see this one as a legit improvement. The fake buttons don't tend to wear out and break nearly as much as the old mechanical ones do, they feel much nicer to push, and they're perfectly waterproof because after all it's just solid class. I don't hesitate to grab my phone when my hands are wet. I would never have done that with an older phone. Win win win.
@@AJ-zv7ng NOt just that. It actually works. I had Imac for 12 years .. no issues. Got imac pro few years ago it will probbaly outlast me. MY iphone 6 plus i was using for 7 years and only upgraded to 12 pro max.. still on 12 and will nto chnage soon. When there issue we go to Apple and they quikcly fix, like give us new phone , or fix damage. .. And yes software is the best, it actually WORKS. My days when i had to cut holes in my old win 98 tower to stop win from freeing are far over and i never look back. to go on win. In other words im too poor to buy none-Apple cheap products that need to be repurchased every year. or 2
This could not be a more accurate depiction of not just Apple, but all modern tech companies.
Hate how they removed the headphone jack, the worst part is some phones technically still allow you to plug in headphones… THROUGH THE CHARGING PORT. Like wtf?

Sadly the new Apple mouse looks something more of R34 weird fetish thought up, instead of an actual design…..

My fav unnovating is how Apple is aggressively trying to prevent sideloading apps from 3rd party stores. Just let people have the damn option and make your OS more secure.
Buy Apple and get scammed like no other.
I mean, the whole security thing also completely falls apart when you consider that adding the *option* to sideload doesn't mean that everyone suddenly *has to* sideload.
And those defending apple somehow think they'll be forced to side load apps when this gets added.
@@OleJanssen It's about money and control and nothing else.

Just sent this to my favorite Apple polisher. Predictable response. Mission accomplished.
He says you look like a pedo. I stood up for you. I said, "At least he's an Android pedo."
This video is better than a bunch of "Tech Channels" that create hype for "New" tech products and NEVER question how society will deal with e-waste.
At the same time, Apple has the audacity to say they care about the environment while create even more unrepairable products.
Their customer base does a lot of virtue signalling, which includes pretending to care for the environment, and so apple pretends as well to care about that. People who repair apple products have commented on the amount of waste they produce using apple parts, with packaging and what not. It's the side customers don't see, so apple doesn't care.
Glad that you pointed that out. From some of these channels, the levels of just flat out promoting a company are insane.. take all the recent tech youtuber and car youtuber videos about the Cybertruck. nothing but praise... even though issues have already been made public.
Yes. Apple needs to be held accountable for all the e-waste they produce and the tactics they use to require customers to constantly replace their products every year or two.
@@ProbablyLyingThere's more money in being a shill than in pointing out valid problems, unfortunately.
@@ProbablyLying Issues are 100% expected on the very first launch of a new product line, so people are more forgiving of fuckups, because it's a brand new product line, the company would have failed to hire proper advisors _somewhere_ and missed _something_ major and seemingly obvious.
It could be worse. The Cybertrucks could be catching fire.
Give it a few model years for all the negatives to be found, and for the company to have the time and money to correct issues, and fail to do so, and you can be as nitpicky as you like.

@@Zembie1 Unnovation and innovation are two different processes so your use of the word "But" doesn't make sense. A company can do both.
There's a technical term for how companies become like that: Enshittification. Look it up.
Very well said. Same thing is done for camera quality. Old phones had less megapixels with better lense, newer ones just reverse. Taking consumer for a ride...
"Why think different when you can just not think at all?"
I felt that.
I'm so old I can remember the Unnovation from back in 2013 when they quietly banned & removed all the apps that let you use your camera flash as a flashlight - just weeks before they added the 'Flashlight' lockscreen button feature to their next iOS update.
Yet still no calculator on ipads, solely because Jobs thought the calculator in the first ipad wasn’t aesthetically pleasing.
"... we downgraded our CEO."
Didn't have a choice about that one. 😢
Steve Jobs downgraded himself from alive by ignoring medical science. Quite the unnovator!
As someone who has always recognized Apple for the scam artists they are, this video had me cheering!
Great apple motto,
" here in apple we love giving you less, but we love charging you more".
There you go. Apple's business model explained in simple terms. Kudos 👏
I also remember old MacBooks. They were prime example of reparability. Everything easy accessed and that… touch of servicing aesthetics. Opening those things was a pleasure.
They became obsessed with form over function and making everything ultra thin, so it needed to use all this custom hardware, which meant it could get thinner, which meant losing all the ports, which meant the dongles, etc etc. I love my work M1 MBP, thing is an absolute beast, but I’d never pay that kind of money for my own device. My company paid for it lol, and I won’t ever have to fix anything.
The G3 Pismo was perfect.
I can absolutely understand making the macbook air all about being slim. That's the whole shtick with it. It's supposed to be super light, like air.
But the normal and especially the pro should be upgradable. Pro implies prosumer, someone who might do video editing, or rendering, or music production on it. The creatator side has always been a big part of the userbase. Because stuff just worked.
@@HappyBeezerStudiosIsn't rendering literally the only use for MACs?
Since the OS has terrible compatibility issues making them ill suited to general purpose use
Yeah I used my non-retina 2012 MBP for like 8 years. Tore it apart and put it back together several times to replace faulty (but easily fixable and acquirable) parts.
It just gets really depressing once you understand that one day, they will be the first company to "rent" their phones to you, because if you do not own it, you basically have 0 rights to anything.
These are all the points that got me buy PCs again and forget apple
The classic move of deciding to let one of their early computer models constantly overheat, because the inclusion of a vent wasn't 'aesthetic' enough.
Or to have their system save every single document type *slightly* different from a PC - so that if you ever have to share things between there's a higher chance of file corruption just because they felt like it.
someone once said that every business is basically "psychopathic" and Apple is the prime example of pushing exactly what makes a business psychopathic to the absolute extreme.
Then it was ruined with standardised formatting that even Microsoft embraced. 😉
The pinnacle of "Unnovation" is when you sell cheap disposable products that are uneconomical to fix when they break, as a Luxury brand at sky high prices.
It's a lot like buying a Ferrari which you take to the scrap yard when you get a puncture, or a Rolex that you pop in the bin when the winding spring snaps. You know "disposable luxury " or "unnovation"
Man, I love tech companies. They always have consumer-friendly solutions in mind to make things more affordable and convenient for the masses!
Though seriously... the "we downgraded our CEO" part had me laughing XD
"Apple: Just buy a new one." That really is perfect.
Apple likes to make existing things with less useful characteristics and call it innovation.
The trackpad is an example
Apple was (I think) the first to mix the left and right buttons, you can't click both at the same time, they did the same with the Mac's mouse.
And the worst thing is some companies were imitating that.
What buttons? They got rid of the touchpad buttons. They made the arrow keys teeny-tiny, got rid of the home and end keys. You'd think we could at least get a touchscreen out of the deal.
My Dell has a singular touchpad but the left-right buttons are still independent under the singular thing, and still mechanical. Granted its a bit old, a humble Inspiron 15, but hey, still usable
One of the best laptop designs (and not by Apple) was the trackpoint. The nipple. And that was IBM, when they still made consumer devices. You could move the cursor without having to take the hands of the typing position. Combined with mouse buttons directly below the spacebar and you don't even need a touchpad. It's like a keyboard that can also fully navigate the mouse.
@@HappyBeezerStudios hmmm, maybe for small movements, but I never was a big fan of that miniature "joystick" slapped in the middle of the keyboard
@@username7763 Well at least the insert and delete keys work - oh wait, no they don't. But who needs to edit anything when you're using a mac? When you have a mac, you can just type gibberish and smugly assume that other people who can't figure it out are inferior.
This video gives me so much nostalgia for like 2012 TH-cam.
Whats especially funny is that the content would make perfect sense even back then.
I like to think that 2012 would have been horrified by the idea of losing the headphone jack and having to pay $129 for earbuds with the same sound quality they used to get for free.

It's nice to see that they finally reached the pinnacle of unnovation that finally enabled them to reach their actual goal - the pinnacle of innovation in predatory business practices.
Sam never disappoints :D
he doesn't unnovate
Sometimes Samtime sums up my boring time😂
If corporations have no competition, they inevitably stagnate while we pay more for less
Perfect.
Humor, mockery and parody must be some of the best things that humanity with the right to free expression has.
My biggest gripe is related, the retreat back into the walled garden. With the switch to Intel, there was a lot more openness about the earlier laptops. Bootcamp, bung Linux on it or whatever. But they've seemed to forget that that walled garden nearly cost them it all in the 90's and they're rushing back to it without a second thought.
Yes. I made an iPhone my primary for the first time ever a couple years back and was shocked at the amount of garbage in the app store. For being "walled", it sure does suck. I don't expect everything to be free like Android users used to, but it's nearly impossible to find "best in class" apps unless you do a separate Google search. I love my M1 Mac Mini, but if it didn't allow me to install software from outside the junky app store, I'm not sure I'd love it so much. On the Mini, I struggled to find a good audio player similar to Media Monkey and still really haven't. Don't talk to me about the pathetic built-in Music app.
wtf is bung, did you mean bing
@@Shvetsario put, throw, dump, place, ....
Sam, you have some serious talent to come up with this stuff! ‘Un-unnovate’ 😂
Apple - When you have extra money to spend but not extra brain cells to think. Apple.
The CEO bit.... 🤣🤣🤣
Savage... I love it.
I experienced this unnovation: they lock your phone like you're a thief then demand the original receipt. I guess I don't have to worry about it getting stolen because it's of no use to me anymore.
Wait, who demanded a receipt? The phone? Lol.
@@roflBeck Apple. They shut down the AppleID I created when moving the phone to a new account, then said I had to present the receipt to be able to get around this.
Did you buy it used?
People who work at apple will actually sell unlocking services unofficially for a few hundred euros. So it's not even a security thing. It does nothing to prevent stolen phones being resold since the phone thieves has insider deals to unlock the stolen devices. It only harms honest users.
Got my first PC in 91. My flatmates all went apple Mac. They were not happy when they realised I could configure my machine any way I wanted while they needed to get permission from Apple support to adjust their screen brightness. If the people supplying my multi-thousand dollar computing device get to dictate how I use it then it's just a very expensive lease agreement. Apple need to design more streamlined products in order to make it easier to stick em where the sun don't shine.😊
Yes, I don't know why Apple don't simply declare their devices are really just rentals until they refuse to support them any more.
You nailed it on why I hate A--le (The will give you a warning if you write that on their boards, no not ”hate”, but their company name). Each new generation ofA--le products gives a small advantage like greater speed, and at least one disadvantage, like your favourite apps stop working or the removal of a port.
My least favourite unnovate is the removal of ports, cant decide whether the removal of the standars USB port on their Macbooks or the removal of the headphone socket is the worst. No matter what, you will run out of battery on something when on the road, your mouse, your headphones or your Macbook.
Wait, can you tell me about the Apple warning thing you mentioned?
My favorite unnovation is removing all of the connectivity options on MacBooks. I love having to carry a dongle with me everywhere I go.
I love how they took Cover Flow out of iTunes for no reason. I guess it looked too nice and people liked it too much.
.... aaand people still buys these products for thousands of dollars! This one really hits apple Sam, great job as always! The preview photo is the best, because this magic mouse was truly a "think different" idea from Apple. How they couldn't stopped it? The solution was so simple but they love making things different, right?
At least nobody stops you from buying from other companies
@@nickplays2022 no but unfortunately when the majority of consumers blindly make bad choices regularly then that does impact intelligent consumers. Whether that's seeing Apple cause an exponential spike in the prices of high-end flagship devices or the removal of standard features like a 3.5mm audio jack...people like yourself who continue to choose poorly actually negatively impact life for the rest of us because unfortunately for people like me, people like you are the majority.
@@beowulf1417 Yes. Apple does it, and by golly Samsung has to follow. Samsung phones had a headphone jack and micro SD slot forever, plus more affordable beautiful high-end devices that included nice corded earbuds. Now Samsung is on the no accessories train and competing with Apple for ultra high prices.
@@beowulf1417except buying from other companies *isnt* a poor choice.
@@beowulf1417and then laughably try to defend their purchases, because it's not about the device they bought to carry out a task. It's about being seen with apple products.
Android has always been more user friendly than Ios, they only switched to USB C like the rest of the world because they were forced to.

This perfectly sums up Apple business practices. Do one for how they screw developers with fees and their steal their tech once its good enough/popular.
I’ve been waiting for that “the old new….” Hahaha thank you for always bringing a big smile Sam

Thanks apple, for sending the entire industry back 20 years
Apple is honestly a social phenomenon
The lengths people will go to for a "status" upgrade even if it's a mediocre (at best) product is what keeps this company afloat
It's just a mirror of current society...
"We downgraded our CEO" HAHAHAHAHA

Technically, they upgraded their CEO. Apple is now making much more money.

Being user-unfriendly is the way Steve Jobs wanted it. That's not even a joke. He never wanted any of his products to be able to be customized or compatible with anything other than Apple products. ‘End to end’ control
I've been a fan for many years, Sam, but this is one of your best videos ❤
You summed up my feelings about Apple so perfectly that the next time someone asks me what I think of the company, I'll just send them this video 👍
They open a devils door, create a problem and charge people for the fix. Others are trying to follow suit.
My favorite unnovation is that they didn't actually remove the headphone jack, they just modified the charging port so that you'd have to
A) buy Bluetooth headphones at triple the price
B) buy custom wired headphones that don't work with anything other than iPhone
C) buy an splitter accessory that allowed you to charge and use wired headphones at the same time
Innovation lies at the heart of most corporations. The thing to take away from that is "lies" and innovation in the sense of how can we get more of your money for less and less effort.
Some of the most notorious for me personally:
1. Batteries that aren't consumer replaceable. 20 years ago, nearly every mobile phone you could buy shipped with a user-replaceable rechargeable battery, and third party chargers were available that would charge the party outside the device. So you didn't just have the option to replace a battery that had gotten old, you had the option to swap in a new battery when your phone was low on charge, if you were on the go and didn't have anywhere to charge it.
2. Proprietary cables, designed to fail. With both the original Dock connector and the replacement Lightning connector, Apple cables were simultaneously more expensive and less durable than the competition... but also shipped in a bright white heatshrink that ages to a dirty gray if you either touch it or leave it in direct light for too long. The cables are literally designed to fail, and aren't compatible with anything other than Apple equipment.
3. Software update lifecycle permits even paid apps to become unusable on existing hardware. With the original iPad, Apple didn't just stop releasing OS updates for it after the second generation came out; they released new versions of Safari and many App Store software versions which _were_ permitted to go to the original iPad which exhausted available memory on the system so that the application you were using in the foreground would routinely be jettisoned while you were using it. The consequence was that basic iPad features which had always worked, from games to web browsing to email, just... went away, even before the device became unusable due to its aging battery or unsafe to use due to Apple failing to release critical security updates for the OS. This plus Apple permitting third party developers to have server-side error messages saying, simultaneously, "Your software version is too old to talk to our servers," and "Your operating system is too old to run a current version of our software," while also failing to release current operating system versions for that hardware. All in a walled garden ecosystem which doesn't permit me to build my own software, install my own operating system, or alter software to talk to nonstandard servers. The result? A device as expensive as a laptop, going from brand new to expensive, unusable e-waste in approximately five years. And it isn't labeled as such at time of sale!
There are BlackBerry phones that remained usable for 15 years, until the 3g networks they were talking to literally went away, because everything that could wear out could be replaced, and because the system developers were careful never to push software updates needed by new devices in a way that would break old devices. The cables and batteries and holsters all got harder to source, and the third party app ecosystem ran down until there wasn't much reason to have the device any more, but the company that sold the device never pushed a succession of software updates which actually broke what you paid for. I don't understand how this didn't result in a giant class action suit against Apple, or fines from the FTC. But it didn't.
And here I am, still buying Apple products, because the user experience on a device that's less than 3 years old is still pretty much unbeatable. I've tried Android. I work in tech so it isn't excessively confusing for me. And some of the features and capabilities beat what Apple offers. But there are basic things in Android that are just unbearably clunky in comparison with the Apple experience, at least for me and my family.
Apple is far from the only company guilty of any of this. Microsoft's failure to build far more durable analog thumbsticks and user-replaceable batteries into their Elite gamepads is something I think a lot about. Samsung is guilty of many of the same things in the design of their consumer devices--not just phones, but things like their Smart TVs. Just recently, I got an email from the manufacturer of Instant Pot telling me that they were going to stop supporting the mobile app that the Instant Pot was integrated with, and shut down the servers that the app needed to talk to, without replacing it. The only remedy for me other than to just use the buttons on the front of the machine? A coupon for a discount on a replacement product. Again, zero interest from any government entity in punishing businesses which push software updates or discontinue server-side infrastructure in a way which strips functionality away from you. A pressure cooker my dad bought when he was younger than I am can still be in good working order today, with care and maintenance of the seals and valves, which paper documentation tells you how to do. The one my mom gave me for Xmas less than six years ago is already a less capable product than it was when I bought it... and the QR code on the small paper manual that came with it points at a documentation URL which no longer exists.
It's hard to imagine that things will stay this anti-consumer forever. At some point, especially as Moore's Law starts to break down, it seems like there will be opportunities for businesses to win by sucking less--especially as manufacturing technology advances on the supply side make it easier and easier to produce small batches of products as ordered, breaking some of the existing economies-of-scale considerations which have instance currently make it impossible for Fran Blanche to continue making and selling Frantone guitar pedals given how small the addressable market for those products is.
But a lot of things have to happen to get us from here to there. Right-to-repair, right to jailbreak, open APIs, open schematics, rights to save and republish abandonware, etc. And there's currently a lot of money arrayed against those policy changes.
Apple is nowhere near the whole problem. But they are a particularly obnoxious example of it.
Lol such an intelligent comment and only so few likes. I guess most people don't like reading
@@Kiboxxx This isn't really the platform for it. If I said all the same things while dressed nicely, speaking clearly, and making eye contact with the camera, I could probably find an audience for my rants.
Can you give some examples for those user experiences that still makes you use Apple products. I sincerely want to know what I am missing.
@@orchard111 The blended "just works" ecosystem between iOS, iPadOS, and MacOS, with Apple ID, Find My, iCloud Keychain, etc. is incredibly valuable to me as the only highly-technical person in a household full of people (including a child) with security needs, password sharing needs, location sharing needs, document and media sharing needs, etc. which they don't know how to deliver for themselves. Even Apple Pay.
All that is incredibly easy to get working across a family unit, not just for the techie setting it up, but for the people who just want the benefit and don't want to do their own tech management.
I can find my way around Android pretty well, but in my experience there's a lot more in Android which is just closed and inaccessible to users who aren't willing to grow their own tech knowledge.
If it's ever just me, and I don't have any women or children in my life who don't know this stuff and don't want to but still need to be able reap the benefits, I might consider switching to Android in order to be nearer to the state of the art on mobile hardware features and in order to be able to make lower level decisions about my own tech life. But as long as I have an elder mother, a domestic partner / housemate, and a stepdaughter, none of whom have the temperament to learn or troubleshoot tech, the premium I pay for Apple products and the occasional frustration I feel with trying to escape its "dummy mode" defaults are a worthy exchange.
The one compromise I've made toward Android as a household so far was Fire TV instead of Apple TV, because I was able to get streaming media on five separate TVs for the same price as getting it on one TV using Apple TV tech. But I really miss the Apple TV I had been using when we were just streaming from a single screen. Finding shows on it across all the apps just worked way, way better than it works on Fire TV.
As a power user in my day job, I like MacOS over Windows. I have yet to find an IT organization that doesn't make dog's breakfast out of fleet management including Linux support, but MacOS is a first class citizen most places, especially ones that employ a lot of people who have to write code for a living. The OS and the applications are more stable. and the native BSD command line is just a way better experience than I have yet found trying to work in Windows under WSL, or especially trying to do as much in PowerShell as an interactive CLI as I can do in ZSH on MacOS with the full power of Homebrew behind me.
I want to be clear: Android, Linux, and Windows are all entirely valid choices over Apple's ecosystem, and in the 2020s, you can get an equally secure "walled garden" from any of the major companies if you value application safety over freedom of choice. And there's a lot to recommend Apple's competitors over Apple.
But I don't believe there's any such thing as "computers for the sake of computers." Ultimately, it's all about the people using them. And Apple gets a lot of things about the user experience right, for people who aren't as technical as I am. From the concierge "Genius Bar" experience which starts the purchase process, through day to day use, all the way through end of device life and how seamless upgrade and migration are kept, my family is able to live a more technically interconnected life with Apple than they would be willing to live without it. And that keeps me more connected to them than I would be able to be otherwise.
To support your point I have a Nokia n97 mini still in great working order with refurbished battery. It outlasted the networks that it used and the original os (2009!) is still rock solid, zero defects.
Meanwhile day 2 of Nokia G22 the Amazon Prime app constantly hangs android, or crashes back to console cold reboot with a scary warning about how my os has been damaged and I should do a factory reset!
Edit: Sorry about multiple reply. How ironic that android should flip out just as I was writing a rant about it. Had to come to PC to fix it...
My phone recently slid, face down, off the top of an asphalt roof onto another roof, bounced off a rock and into a creek. It was $200. It takes 50 MP photos. The battery lasts a week of rigorous use. It is totally fine. It is not an iPhone. 😂
It's perfect that Apple's slogan was functionally illiterate.
It would be "Think differently"...except that if you have a command of language, you probably don't use Apple products.
Apple has become the best money moving role model company from customer account to Apple account.
Don't forget that they also take 30% from the money users sent to app developers, and they keep remaining 70% for a month before delivering them to app devs (which allows them to use that money for stock market speculation in the meanwhile).
At what point does it just constitute money laundering and nothing else?
You do, however, have to admit that they do keep innovating new ways to present old techs as new, and "same-as-last-gen" as "all new", and actually get people to believe them.
I’m an apple fan, but I watched a recent video summarizing their iPhone 15 event and I scoffed at them presenting the USB C as a move they’re doing now and how they’ve been upgrading their products with usb c for years! As if it was something they wanted to do all along.
Their product is a sense of status. People happy to be exploited if they’re convinced a competitor product would make them appear inferior to other people.
@@SigFigNewton it’s definitely less about that and more about receiving value from the features and the ecosystem. I’ve never been forced to buy an apple product. I gifted and received apple products this Christmas. Each of us sat down and looked over the features and were amazed, especially me, at how well everything synced up and how well each of the products “talked” to each other. From a phone, to the watch, to AirPods, they work so, so well together.
@@thecapone45 super easy, like connecting my $15 wireless earbuds. Somehow I doubt I’ll have to replace them ten times as often as AirPods. Goin strong
Also getting people to rave over the latest brand new features - which PC and Android users have been using as standard for 5+ years.
I will never forget how they introduced face recognition unlock several years late lol. The funny thing is that the marketing worked too, when in reality it has been around since Android Jellybean lmao.
What you’re missing is that the technology Apple uses is far more secure.
Android 4 added camera-based facial recognition. It’s convenient but it isn’t secure. That’s why you couldn’t use it to authenticate Google Pay payments for example. Google themselves didn’t deem it secure enough because it could be easily deceived.
What Apple uses is 3D infrared facial recognition, which is vastly superior in security and versatility. It can be used in many more lighting environments and is much harder to deceive, which is why it can be used to unlock banking apps or authenticate payments.
So no, it hadn’t been around for years.
@@alanharper23 common apple cope. "It offers privacy and security" 🤡
@@GMPranav I mean, it's a fact. The tech introduced in Android 4 is not the same tech as FaceID. Camera-based facial recognition can be deceived by photos and doesn't work in poorly-lit conditions because it relies on visible light. 3D infrared facial recognition doesn't have those issues. So yes, it's more secure.
It's not an Apple vs Google thing. Several other Android phones have used 3D infrared tech before. Like the Pixel 4 or the Huawei Mate 20 Pro.
Check out Android Authority's facial recognition info page if you wanna learn more.
