Is apple iphone taking the same path of blackberry ?
As per my understanding when iphone was launched, it was the benchmark of mobile industry and people went behind it even though the cost was higher.Every launch had a specialty and people would be eagerly waiting to know about the innovations the new iphone has. Now phones like One plus and many other brands provide much better quality phones with innovative features at a lower price.
I would still appreciate the customer service Apple provides to its customers, but that alone would not be sufficient.
The recent update about the iphone is that they are launching a new phone at lower cost with almost the same features, nothing attractive I guess.
There would be some people who would talk about security features of iphone which blackberry also told once but now we could see the fate where it landed.
I strongly believe its time for Apple to rethink on iphone from just a mobile manufacture point of view to an innovator or benchmark view.
What are your thoughts?

4 年In short, blackberry thought that its loyal customer base would keep buying what it offered, so it didn't feel a pressing need to innovate. Yes apple now seems to be taking down path of blackberry.

4 年As far as recycling is concerned I believe apple is doing a great job saving the environment! As far as innovation is concerned, I believe it was buried along with Mr. JOBS.....Now we are just left with the wonderful memories.

4 年I think they have realized it themselves and that's why they have launched an SE model again. They are going after the value concious consumer. There might be shifts in their strategy in future. But of course they are still milking the brand name they have created for themselves over the years.
