the iphone se follows the iphone 5 form factor which means it's still too big the last iphone that was overseen by steve's clarity of vision and understanding of quality was the iphone 4s with ios 5, don't accept anything less

fair enough, because that would be dumb as hell. that list is just from the "standard" ipad line, not including the mini and the pro

what's wrong with using a car-like naming scheme where you just keep the name the same and distinguish by year even if there are massive changes? nobody gets all confused about the 2017 Honda Civic being different than the 2015 Civic. split it by size and you are done. everyone can figure out that iPad mini (2015) is shittier than the iPad mini (2017). are iPad sales so anemic and fickle that they have to resort to crazy naming scheme fuckery to get people to upgrade ?

carry on then posted:Samsung is so stupid with their insistence on printing their ugly logo on the front face of any device where it’ll fit. You’re obviously supposed to use this tablet in landscape orientation any time it’s connected to the keyboard case, or any time you watch a video. For many users, that might be the majority of their time using the device. And when the device is in landscape, the logo is oriented wrong. That’s just plain stupid. that's it, that's all john fireball can come up with to diss a samsung tablet. apple is done. [/quote] ah yes, the classic "you're holding it wrong" argument
