1 points by macando ↗ HN
iPhone has the fastest processor by a large margin [0], the most popular wearables that sell like crazy [1], Apple Glasses headset is around the corner [2], and now iOS apps will be able to run on macOS. Is it possible for Android phones to compete with this on anything else but price?

"In the mobile space, there's really no competition as the A13 posts almost double the performance of the next best non-Apple SoC."

"He would only say that the company's wearables division, which includes AirPods and Apple Watch, accounts for more revenue than 300 of all Fortune 500 companies."

"Well-respected Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo expects the AR glasses to be marketed as an iPhone accessory and will primarily take a display role offloading computing, networking, and positioning to the iPhone. Offering the AR glasses as an iPhone accessory will allow Apple to keep them slim and lightweight."
