Yea the last year has felt like the gave up on QA entirely. There’s no polish. No obsession with little details you can’t really market but absolutely notice in day to day use. Nothing is intuitive or clever or even pleasant to use anymore. It’s hostile. I like my iPhone air but it will be my last Apple product. I’m going full Linux.

If something is screwed up, I want it to be my fault for free rather than someone else’s for $1000. My mistakes get fixed. Theirs get dragged out in profitable ways.

I totally agree. Same here, I make sure to say this is the last iPhone I will buy to it since it's always listening anyway. Some of the UI stuff, I sit and wonder why? The worst part is when I boot up an old iphone to look at old pictures and it... works great.
