With the new releases from Apple this week, there has been a lot of buzz about the new and continually advancing technology coming from Apple. Just this week they've released one of the biggest and most dramatic changes in technology since the original release of the iPhone. The tag phrase for this new iPhone 6 release is "bigger than bigger" which emphasizes the hugeness of this release . Included in the major software update is Apple Pay. A new card-less technology way to pay for thing through your Apple products including the new watch.
An article from wired.com suggests that the Apple takeover is upon us and that soon Apple and its products will soon rule our lives. Apple isn't just releasing individual products. All these individual products play into a bigger picture. According to Apple CEO Tim Cook the goal is "the Apple Experience." They aren't just releasing new iPhones, new IOS software, a revolutionary new watch, or whatever it might be. These are products with features that all work together. Apple is calling it their ecosystem
Do you have an iPhone? Is your laptop a Mac or maybe you use an iPad? Even if you don't own one of these things you probably know how to work one. Slowly, or maybe not so slowly Apple is working its way into each persons life, into each household, business, school or whatever it might be. Their goal is to create a computer for all. "The computer in the sky that connects to the computer in you pocket and on your wrist and in your car, your office, and your home," as the wired.com article puts it. Apple is creating products that can be used for everything with features that can be used in every way. Is the Apple takeover upon us? And if it is how long do you think it will take?
I wouldn't necessarily say that there's a takeover by Apple. I say that mostly because there have been technologies that have already existed that are similar to the new iPhone's size and the idea of a computerized watch (iWatch). Furthermore, Apple has perfected not only the idea of these existed (not widely used) technologies, but the design, interface, and experience.

ReplyDeleteI really like that apple is re-inventing itself consistently by giving the phone a new look, a few additional features, bigger screens and other add on products that enhance the way you use your phone. The Apple take over has been upon us for quite some time now, maybe because other company brands are also re-inventing and making technology gains as well.
