As an Apple fan, I agree. The new product line is a mess. And given the focus on product obsolescence, I know I’ll need to replace all my devices sooner than I would like, even though they still work. I’ve been noticing how many times I need to charge my iPad Pro, for example. I jumped shipped to Apple in the first place because of their simplified product line.
The problem is that whatever Apple does, the market will follow. So, we’re gonna have to get used to disposable tech just like fast-fashion and cheap furniture.
