2020 is a bit like 1984 – both Jobs’ version and the other, more dystopian one. Apple, under the stewardship of Tim Cook and on the back of the iPhone’s uninterrupted popularity, is worth $2 trillion now: A record high. But there’s also the iPad, which remains a favourite among the creative class, despite worthy contenders; and the Apple Watch, which has become its own category-starting beast.
Even as media services like Apple Music and Apple TV+ grow more refined, and the focus generally shifts to mobile and wearable tech, the Mac isn’t going anywhere. “We know the Mac is one of the most powerful tools we make and people have a deep relationship with how it fits into their lives,” says Alan Dye, VP of Human Interface at Apple, “even more so now in this age of sheltering in place and working from home. I think there’s always going to be a need for highly capable tools. And I’d like to think the work we’ve done on Big Sur, from an experience perspective, certainly shows how committed we are to the Mac.”
