Samsung’s boring updates to its iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch wannabes bodes well for Apple’s real iPhones, iPads, and Apple Watches for the rest of this year and deeply into 2024.
Mark Gurman for Bloomberg News:
Samsung Electronics Co. is… pushing mostly modest upgrades to its phones, tablets and watches.
The company’s new Fold and Flip phones get new hinges for a flatter look, as well as faster processors and minor camera updates. To borrow from Apple’s nomenclature, the names probably should have been Fold 4S and Flip 4S — instead of Fold 5 and Flip 5.
The watch upgrades were also fairly minor, adding faster processors and — on some versions — slighter larger displays. But the S9 tablet lineup probably had the most incremental group of updates.
The lack of major new features bodes well for Apple, which is about to launch its biggest iPhone upgrade in three years.
MacDailyNews Take: Informed consumers use real iPhones, iPads, and Apple Watches, not half-assed knockoffs peddled by South Korean dishwasher makers.

Apple is the phone to buy. Most of all the people who have a iPhone and the ones that is the people who want to switch. But there are people out there who are too lazy to learn the iPhone and want to stay with Android so I tell them that if they are too lazy to learn then get the Pixel because you will get the full android experience. But I think that there is about 85% who has or willing to learn. Then the dumb ones at about 20%.
How’s the foldable iPhones working out for you, should you want one.
