What is surprising to me is how Microsoft is falling by the way side in this
field.

Actually, she’s right. Apple, by far, makes the greatest profits over any
other cell phone maker. It’s not even close. This information can be found all
over the place.
As for your opinion on Android, it’s also completely off. iOS is a much
better and more intelligent platform than Android. I’ve used Android and it was
not impressive at all. And this was on a Google device with a straight forward
version of Android.

Victor, every few months their articles coming out telling how much of the
phone market which company has in terms of profits. Year after year, Apple
makes the vast majority of profits in the phone market. You might not like it.
But it's true. There's a whole lot of the technical press that is all over
articles every time some company gains a little bit of marketshare. Waymore
phones have android on them then there are iPhones. And that makes exactly no
difference, because the vast majority of the actual money being made is being
made by Apple on phones, not any of the other companies. Samsung makes a bunch
of money. They make some profit on phones. They also make a ton of money in
other industries. All those cheap phones that all those folks are making our
nonprofit producers. Again, you might not like it. It might not be "fair". But
that's how it is.

Mary, you can’t make blanket statements without looking it up first.
One cannot say that Apple is making most of the money in this industry
because Apple is only one company, whereas there are at least seven or eight
companies manufacturing cell phones that are not Apple. To say that Apple was
making most of the money in this industry is like saying that Coke is making
most of the money in the pop industry when there are so many other drinks
available like juices, soft drinks, milk, coffee, or tea.
Now if you were to say that Apple was making most of the money compared
to Samsung or even Sony would be more appropriate, but even then your statement
would be wrong as these two companies alone make thousands of products Apple
does not, so please, check your facts before your tout them as facts.

Well, apparently not too many people are moving away. Apple is making
most of the money in this industry. There are many people who make android
devices. Most of them make no profit. Companies don't stay in business forever
if they don't make a profit.

Hi Sieghard, while I can appreciate your issue regarding OS reliability
and phone integrity, the fact is people are moving away from Apple devices for
just that reason. With the added advances in the camera, both front and rear,
pictures will get larger, and I don’t even think there are phones available
higher than the five that have 16 gig memory, and even those devices are
pushing it. When they introduced the enhanced camera in the iPhone six, they
realized that sixteen gigs just wouldn’t do if people wanted to take pictures,
I mean, I’m still amazed that they’re still offering the 32 gig devices,
especially in the iPad, but again, this is just the smaller issue. How many
phones out there are getting more and more waterproof and dust proof, and they
don’t seem to have a problem with an SD card slot, in addition, the OS security
could be plugged to avoid that sort of thing. Fact is, I think that Apple is
guarding it’s closed platform so people are forced to get their content from
iTunes and App store. Open up the file system and you’re looking at an easier
way to jailbreak, and Apple couldn’t have that Regardless, I do think that
Apple should open their eyes when it comes to expansion, if only to make it
easier to connect to a portable solution, lest they get left out in the cold
when the Android devices that allow for expansion come rumbling in. Just a
thought.

Hi Victor,
I am not sure if Apple could keep their walled garden concept and offer
SD card expansion slots. If you allow people to introduce media on an SD card
then the OS must have access to the folders or maybe it would be more accurate
to say that Apple would have to give users access to what is on the SD card and
that would possibly defeat the purpose of the closed nature of the platform.
Any SD card, even the newest and fastest, would also introduce a lot of latency
in how fast things get loaded and I think this all goes against what Apple
wants to achieve. I think actually that even some high-end Android phones are
moving away from that, but I might be wrong, just something I heard. Does the
Google Pixel for example have an SD card slot? Lastly, having such an expansion
slot on an iPad is one thing because there is probably plenty of space, but
having it on an iPhone is most likely not very practical as there hardly is any
space left as is and of course making a highly waterproof or water resistant
device would probably be much more difficult if the device had an SD card slot
Personally I have no problem with Apple offering internal memory, I totally
agree that nowadays 16 Gb doesn’t get you far, but I wonder how many people
still buy 16 Gb devices if they can get a 64 Gb device (4 times the space) for
$100 more.

Sieghard

I don’t agree. Granted, the 300 dollar price tag is nice, but not with
the memory it’s offering.
I think the 32 and 16 models of any device is outdated, unless it’s got
an expansion slot for an SD card.
Frankly, I’m completely surprised that Apple hasn’t embraced this
concept, since it would enable them to lower the amount of ROM memory on the
device, and allow people to expand according to their budget. Alas, it would
seem that Apple is destined not to ever get the message.

These are not big deal upgrades. If they actually introduce a
substantial a new iPad Pro, I would suppose they would do so with a bit more
fanfare. But these upgrades are no big deal.

Apple Introduces Cheapest iPad Yet, Special Edition Red iPhone
More stories by Alex Webb
Apple Inc. introduced a revamped version of its most popular-sized
iPad at the cheapest price yet, and a shiny red iPhone 7, whose sales will help
to combat AIDS.
Apple unveiled a new 9.7-inch iPad with a brighter Retina display
starting at $329, and a special edition red-aluminum finish iPhone 7 and iPhone
7 Plus, part of the company’s decade-long partnership with (RED), which
contributes to the Global Fund to fight HIV and AIDS.
“Since we began working with (RED) 10 years ago, our customers have
made a significant impact in fighting the spread of AIDS through the purchase
of our products, from the original iPod nano (PRODUCT)RED Special Edition all
the way to today’s lineup of Beats products and accessories for iPhone, iPad
and Apple Watch,” Apple Chief Executive Officer Tim Cook said in a statement
Tuesday.
Apple is the world’s largest corporate donor to the Global Fund,
contributing more than $130 million, the company said.
Apple is expected to reveal a significant upgrade to the iPhone later
this year.
Cupertino, California-based Apple last year unveiled a new iPhone
which reignited sales growth in the Christmas quarter after a year of declines.
Those falling sales came even as Apple introduced a cheaper handset in March in
an effort to spur growth in emerging markets. The only sales growth in the 2016
fiscal year came from the services business, which includes Apple Music and the
App Store, and the other products category.
Apple shares rose less than one percent to $142.55 at 10:24 a.m. in
New York. Earlier they hit a new intraday high of $142.80.
The new iPad starts at $329 for 32GB with Wi-Fi and $459 for 32GB
Wi-Fi plus cellular. It will be available to order starting March 24 in the
U.S. and more than 20 other countries and regions. The iPhone (RED) models will
be available in 128GB and 256GB models starting at $749 from March 24. Apple
also announced new storage capacity for the iPhone SE. That 4-inch display
model will now be available in 32GB and 128GB models, doubling the current
capacity and replacing the previous models.
Other product launches Tuesday include a new app called Clips, that
helps people combine video clips, photos and music that can be shared through
social media and messages. Apple also said its Swift Playgrounds iPad app,
which helps students learn to code, is available in five additional languages:
Japanese, French, German, Spanish and simplified Chinese.
