How to be an Apple hater. Step by step guide

As many of us know Apple has been around innovation for quite some time, 40 yrs exactly, to be more precise. They always tried to surprise the world with the best design and best UX. The iOS is very intuitive, easy to use and the design is clean and beautiful.

The hardware as well, they spend a lot of money on designing each piece. They are obsessed with things to look perfectly and I love that. Even when they are presenting the products, the videos are done perfectly, each frame has its place in the video, suggesting something.

Now, why do I see more and more hating posts after each launch? This is because Apple is known to bring to the world something new, something innovative in the market. When they first came up with the iPhone, the iPad, the iPod, the iTunes. But people forget something; that technology is evolving like crazy, and new innovating startups are rising each day and is hard to revolutionise market with such a staggering growth. When they first came up iPod, there was no market for it, the old and hard to use walkmans where the only way to listen to music while you are walking. They tried something new, and they succeed. But there was no competitors or this hunger of innovation as it is today.

Back in the days, there were a few people that tried to innovate. Most of the people came out from big universities from where they started to create something. The startup world was almost inexistent. To create a startup you had to have money, there were no accelerators or people that wanted to give you money as easily as it is today. The market was open to new things, to easy innovation and Apple saw this.

I think they are still focused on bringing good devices with an incredible design and UX. I love Apple products because I love beautiful things. Things that delight my eye and things that I love to use not only because they are robust products, but because they are beautiful, and it’s a pleasure to use them.

There is no more Apple is for rich people, or maybe in some countries like mine (Romania). Back in the days if you had an Apple product it meant that you have money.

Another hating thing from the launch is about iPhone removing the Jack from the device and introducing a lightning port; everyone went crazy about this. What is so damn bad about this thing? I don’t get it. They even included in the package an adapter for the jack. People are so frustrated about this like their life will be not the same. Did we survive after Apple launched an iMac without Floppy Drive? Did we survive after Apple launched an iMac without CD Drive? Yes, of course. Who is using right now a floppy or a CD? Only my grandma, maybe. The same it will be with the jack. It’s not a big deal. Get over it.

Here is Steve Jobs explaining why they give up on things.

“You need to choose what horses to ride”.

As Steve also says: “If we succeed they will buy them, if not they won’t and it’ll all work itself out” and i cannot agree more. If you like what they are doing buy their products, if not don’t buy them. It’s that hard? From where this rage, like your life is depending on what products Apple is cooking.
