Let me guess, are we holding it wrong again?
My guess is that they are making their own WiFi chip and it’s growing pains.
"we will test it in production! what other use is there for users?"
...at great cost to each.
Remember, though: apple is a hardware company. They win when you buy it. They only fix it enough so you'll buy the next one too.
Obviously Apple is previewing their next upcoming invention: After dropping physical buttons and the headphone jack, the iPhone 18 will remove Wi-Fi support. Apple will call themselves "corageous" and make up a laundry list of reasons why we don't need it. (But obviously, it'll actually be because they are in cahoots with all the cell carriers who want to charge you for data 100% of the time.)
The iPhone 19 will drop the charging port, and the iPhone 20 won't have a screen. It'll retail for $1899, and millions of people will buy it anyway.
Circlejerk much? It’s because they tried to develop their own network connectivity chip, and it sucks ass
It's satire, dude.
But it’s nonsense and shallow.
cool story, where’s my fucking headphone jack
That complaint makes sense, don’t get me wrong guys.
Congratulations, you described Apple's PR department.
Ignore the downvotes.
I always ignore the downvotes. I am both waterpoof and invincible!
So much time spent thinking about Apple!
