The link says Apple might use it in their products so maybe it is ready this time? FWIW Apple waits until a technology is matured to keep up their 'it simply works' reputation.
No apple product I have tried 'simply worked' it worked as apple designers wanted it to work and no other way, with million little bugs as well.
The "simply worked" belongs to the Steve-Ive era. Those times are long gone.
They used to. And Macs kinda still do, though Liquid Ass is ugly AF there.
The Apple keyboard though... by far the worst part of it. I have a 2024 iPhone 16 Pro Max as my daily driver. It's an awesome phone. But if I gotta type on a phone in any kind of long form... I'm gonna power up my 2019 Galaxy S10 and wait for it to boot because the typing is so much better (I use Gboard there). Why Apple can't figure it out, and how these people are getting paid when auto correct changes random words to their names after I've typed them the way I want, I just don't get it. Like names of people I don't even have in my contacts, random ass names I've never used that words like "and" and "two" get changed to.
It's because you're not writing the way Apple wants you to.
might use it. Speculation. There is no official source yet that says apple will do any foldable phone. They are also just speculated rumors. May be true because of the iPhone Air experiment, but may also be just a rumor.
