     Everything Apple Announced Today:
     iPhone 16, Apple Watch Series 10, New AirPods

Summary (in order of presentation) of what Apple invested in R&D for them:
 
1. The iPhone 16 & 16 Plus now have a vertically aligned camera module
2. Apple's Action Button was carried over from the iPhone 15 Pro
3. A Camera Control button which reacts to different levels of pressure
4. The iPhone 16 Pro & Pro Max model are slightly larger (at 6.3 & 6.9")
5. A "host" of smaller upgrades, including iPhone 16 Pro 5X optical zoom
 
The fact is, with Apple's lack of R&D, they can only copy Android
now.

I don't get this.  I like my iPhone.  I have a long background in
technology and although you may or may not be right about the supposed
superiority of Android devices over Apple, I say 'so what'?  If I like
something, who are you to tell me I should or should not do so, and
why should I care?

Normal people who dislike something simply refrain from using it.
Hate-filled zealots, on the other hand, harbor such insecurity that they
are compelled to bully others for daring to use things they dislike.
Andrew is one such troll.
