Hello fellow macfags, it's that time of year again to gather 'round for another mac event! Get it? It says round! Who's excited to see the new phones? There's a possibility that we'll even get a brown one, isn't that cool!?
Basing this off the average /tech/nician salary of $120,000 per year, since we last did one of these three months ago, $30,000 has been put in your pocket. You have lots of disposable income to burn, what Apple product are you going to buy next? This time the focus is going to be on phones, exactly as it was at the developer conference. Apple isn't just a computer company, you guys.

When the MM first included thunderbolt, they were pimping their 27" Apple Display quite hard. I thought "it would be a smart move to invest in a MacMini and a Apple Display, this way I can upgrade to new MM in future and still keep same monitor"
Months after that, they discontinued the display and have never released an upgraded MacMini.

Why do people still take them seriously? Is it really possible that not ONE normie has told their friends that Apple is overhyped, and there are plenty of cheaper, more powerful, and logical phones out there?
Even a fucking Alcatel stock phone makes more sense than iPhones. Sure, the specs are shit, but if the screen is only 720p, then it makes sense for the camera to be 720p (or 1080p) as well. They're also worlds cheaper and give more power to the user. OneTouch broke? Back up data, reinstall Android, restore backup, bam, done. iPhone broke? Prepare for an hour long drive to the Apple store where they tell you to bend over while they buttfuck you and your wallet.

▶ No.968469>>968472 >>968477

A lot of that is right, but I don't see why the screen needs to match the photo resolution, hopefully they intend people to actually view photos on computer monitors. Most digital SLR cameras have very low quality displays for instance, it just need to be good enough for a quick look.

But the trend big companies are pushing is to get rid of desktop computers (and laptops to an extent), and since most normies don't have any devices with an actual 4K resolution, they won't even see the full quality of the photos they're taking without excessive zooming and panning around. 4K mass adoption is still ways away, so I don't see why companies are making strides in improving camera technology much faster than screen technology, as opposed to improving both at the same time.

Yes, but given the average normie doesn't have a job that pays enough to let them buy a nu shiny 4K smart TV, most normie TVs are 720p or 1080p and come from ghetto craigslist deals. And for those that do have a 4K screen, they're not doing photo editing on it or showing off their beach pics to their parents, they're using it to watch the 3 shows on Netflix that are upscaled to 4K.
▶ No.968487

>, so I don't see why companies are making strides in improving camera technology much faster than screen technology
It's not that screen tech isn't keeping up with high resolutions, there are consumer-grade 8k tvs if you want to spend the shekels on them. There are just much bigger limiting factors to adopting high res screens vs high res cameras. The biggest issue being graphics cards. The dog shit CPU-based graphics on 99% of people's laptops and computers can't handle 8k or even 4k screens in many cases. Cost is the other big factor, obviously. It's cheaper to buy a camera with a 8k sensor than it is to buy a tv with an 8k resolution.

I remember reading an interview from an Apple exec a few years ago where he was talking about just the raw quantity of labor available in China. His example was something along the lines of if they gathered all the tool engineers in the US they would fit into a lecture hall but if they gathered all the tool engineers in China they would need a small stadium. The Chinese may lack the creativity to develop things on their own but given instructions about what needs designed they can work just as quickly as an American engineer.

You are either intentionally mis-paraphrasing what he said or he is retarded
China when you consider its population overall has a shocking lack of real talent in the engineering departments. Apple doesn't outsource engineering to China. How many fucking times do I need to say this? Their processors are fabricated in Taiwan and the design process is in America, their screens are from Korea and finally the assembly process is done in China. That's it
▶ No.969909
>>969899
Note that the example I mentioned specifically referred to tool engineers, ie people who design tooling and production lines. Modern high volume manufacturing requires huge amounts of effort to setup and even minor changes to the design can require significant retooling of production lines. Thats what he was alluding to, if they change the design a month before its due to be released they can call up 1000 skilled engineers at a moments notice to redesign their production machines for the new design whereas they might be able to scrape together a team of maybe 50 in the US.
