Why Apple Beats Google
Apple is the brand to beat these days. With over 17.4 million units sold in the first quarter of 2017 for the iPhone 7 plus, a new iPad with a near 11 inch screen and the Apple Watch 2 sales increasing (according to Tim Cook) despite the near death of most smartwatches brands and companies, it truly is a wonderful time to be an Apple fan. But why does the company do so well despite having the most restrictive user interface in all smartphone os, prices that are elitist by any normal smartphone standards and hardly any breakthrough changes in design and technology since the iPhone 5? This is what we will look into today and understand why Apple beats Google’s much friendlier, much more open ecosystem and products.
