“Fix Siri before launching another ambitious gadget.”
There hasn’t been a truly game-changing product since the Apple Watch in 2015.
Vision Pro is impressive but has an identity crisis and a massive price tag.
A home hub? People already use iPads stuck to their fridges or walls.
Apple Intelligence? What even is that?
I usually love seeing new products, but this one should have waited. If Apple doesn’t improve its software, this might be another frustrating device, dragged down by Siri.
I hope it does better than the HomePod + Apple TV combo… and doesn’t end up like the Humane AI Pin (not an Apple product, but still worth remembering).
What do you think? Was this the right move, or should Apple focus on fixing its software first?

The last real hit product was the M1 MacBook.
I’d argue Vision Pro counts. It’s pricey, but the tech is next-level.
M1 MacBook actually changed the industry. Every company I worked at wanted them. Other manufacturers had to rethink battery life, efficiency, and performance.
Vision Pro is cool tech, but I don’t know anyone who owns one.
Since 2015, we’ve seen AirPods, HomePod (the mini actually sold well), Face ID, M-series Macs, the Studio, AirTags… the list goes on.
This whole ‘Apple stopped innovating’ thing is nonsense. Every few years they release something that ends up in millions of homes, pockets, or offices.
