A few weeks ago, I wrote an article titled “How Apple scams us”. In that article, I discussed how Apple sells us overpriced products. But today, I want to talk about the cool and interesting products from Apple.

Chapter 1: Cool Apple Devices

Many of the products developed by Apple are no longer as cool as they once were. One example is the iPhone. In 2007, the iPhone was a sensation, mega cool and mega interesting. I would have definitely bought one back then if I hadn’t been in my mother’s womb at the time. The newest cool device from Apple is the “Vision Pro”. This technology is mega interesting and can be extremely useful. Let me give an example: I often work in a chemical laboratory and need to take notes, keep records, set timers, etc. The Vision Pro would make this much easier because I would have the notes, the record, and the timer right in front of my face. Moreover, I could look up recipes or other information without leaving my workspace. This device could be extremely useful with a bit of training. The same technology is already used in German submarine construction. Besides that, the only other device that fascinates me is the Apple Pencil because it is simply better than the competitors’ devices. For others, there are certainly more interesting devices; a MacBook is cool too, but it doesn’t fascinate me because it is a relatively low-performance laptop and the competition has much more impressive technologies. Overall, Apple occasionally releases cool devices that are unique for a few years but are then replaced by better and cheaper technology from competitors. But let’s now move on to Apple’s cool software products.

Chapter 2: Cool Apple Software

In general, it can be said that almost every Android system is not nearly as good as iOS because Android has to adapt to all phones, whereas iOS only has to adapt to Apple devices. iOS has such a simple operation; you always quickly find what you need. And if you don’t, finding it after a quick Google search is still not difficult. Most apps are also more tailored to iOS than to Android, and many cool apps like Procreate are only available on Apple devices. I think iOS is cool, but I miss that Google doesn’t have control because they are globally recognized, and Google Maps doesn’t leave you hanging even in the deepest jungle. I’m simply a fan of Google and its services. But let’s now look at the cool stuff that Apple has.

Chapter 3: The Interesting Stuff from Apple

Apple has a million cool things. The phones look mega high-quality, and when you open the packaging, it feels like you’re unwrapping a valuable gold bar. Of course, this is a strategy to get people to buy the devices; Apple doesn’t spend so much money on packaging designers for nothing. The feeling of being in an Apple Store is great: everything is clean, it looks futuristic, and you instantly feel a bit richer even though you are just as poor as before. Also, the presentation of a new device is exciting. The scenery and everything around it look amazing. The sad truth, however, is that they often promote things that are the same as last year’s. But overall, the “Apple Experience” is a great feeling — you feel rich and as if you are in an exclusive club.

Chapter 4: Conclusion

Although I belong to the Android community and always will, Apple is still quite interesting, especially because of the latest technologies. These technologies have brought and will bring many advantages to the future work environment. That’s why I am and will remain excited about what comes next.
