This question as in what areas could cause suspicion "how superior, much less" say some of those who opt for different platforms to those offered by the company of the bite Apple. But it is obvious that this blog is run by and for fans of Apple and we do we are convinced that the products Mac, iPhone, iPod or iPad are better than the competition, because we tried them and we have come to see their high level of performance and usability.
Not only that, but that Apple seems to be a year or two ahead of their competitors in what technology concerns. Let us remember what happened with the iPhone, the smartphone just four years old. I would like to draw to collation article than yesterday released Angel Jimenez on the occasion of his ten years as a technology blogger, is a post of required reading for bloggers that you look at his career but also for all the Apple fans:
Finland placed on the market 50 different products to the year but they were just that, loose products. The iPhone was the first phone that was presented as a cohesive, not as a product platform, and also changed the way we interact with technology, precipitating the arrival of the era of gestural control, the distribution of applications and their use in mobile environments, and even the very idea of computing. Things like pinching for zooming or slide a button to unlock a phone are now natural gestures to the point that seems offensive that a company may have a patent on them, but they simply did not exist or was not considered practical solutions, 2007
But Apple did not invent these things, doesnt it?
It is true, but Apple was able to mix all the ingredients in the proper way and put the result in the market. The same can be said with the iPad tablet.
Yes Sir, use this comment as a bridge to talk about another clear example of what we are saying, the iPad. When nobody dared or did not have a concept of what should be a form of tablet device was Apple and put on the table, in the market, a robust product with a huge platform back in love with a few hours of use.
Why? Seems it to Apple to be a year or two ahead of the competition in the sector? Let us dare to answer that complex question:
By having one of the design teams most respected and best prepared in todays technical world. Their minds have come encapsulated stylized and very resistant using materials and forms that are light products and definite lines
By Steve Jobs, who seems to be equipped with some ability to anticipate the future, or rather see it in advance and move his team to bring it to the present.
His philosophy of creating user experiences and not products, this cause believe it has been sufficiently explained in the commentary of Angel Jimenez on the iPhone.
You probably have other reasons to add these and we would love to hear them. But we must not forget another additional reason, and it is the enormous amount of money that Apple has to invest where you want without having to borrow. There are companies that as soon as they acquire capital prefer to buy small and this is a very smart step if it aims to improve internal processes or the products of the buyer, but Apple prefers to go by other paths (but do not forget to buy from time to time).
A user of Quora has described very well the use Apple gives that money in the process of production of their devices, a method that emphasizes that capacity to advance to the other. When a new technology is presented by any of the research companies in new fields of the digital age, well or chips, or touchscreen monitors LED, the main drawback that there is to bring these developments to the market is its manufacture, it is hardly comparable costs for a limited company.
Here is where the company from Cupertino. If the company meets an interesting technology for your gadgets reaches an agreement with the companys research or manufacturer of parts for which of the Apple put all or nearly all the capital for the new production facility for manufacturer can provide you with this hardware in well-defined orders. To change Apple gets some more than interesting discounts and exclusive technology specific for a period ranging from 6 to 36 months.
This allows the Californian company to go one step in front of any other company that is forced to wait until the technology is cheaper, or not to purchase the product at prices much more high. It seemed that the money in cash from Apple was not going to have nothing to do with his career rise and its success in sales, but following the above reasoning seems much more important to be expected.
