Why Musk likes to hold the character of "striking Apple ", in this regard, Apple is considered to be "public anger"
Among the big guys in the global technology circle, Tesla CEO Elon Musk is definitely the most special one, especially in the action of "blame Apple" on social platforms, Musk acts a bit like a young man in college, and he has always spoken straight and never concealed. Of course, Musk's goal of "starting a fight" is surprisingly consistent, that is, Apple's 30% Apple tax .
Recently, Elon Musk expressed concern about the music application Spotify being rejected by Apple three times due to the purchase channel. And on Apple's post "takes a 30% commission on social media ads" ', saying "30% is really too high." As early as 3 months ago, Musk also expressed dissatisfaction with Apple's forced commission and fixed payment methods, saying that Apple is "taxing" the Internet
Apple tax will arouse public anger. Domestic application manufacturers are also very troubled. The commission for this domestic mobile game channel server is different. Domestic composition is a kind of cooperation. The platform has to be responsible for promotion after sharing the share, while Apple directly takes 30%. Recently, in addition to forcing Apple to use the Type C interface, the EU also needs to cancel the binding of the in-app purchase IAP system, so that application manufacturers can freely choose payment channels in Apple devices.
Apple's response is surprisingly consistent, all of which are concerns about user experience and security. In fact, Apple has always been doing things to maximize benefits with reasons for users. The so-called environmental protection and application ecosystem are the sources of 80% of smartphone profits. To truly understand the intuitive improvement of user experience, Apple will learn from domestic mobile phone manufacturers.
Take the Redmi recently released Redmi as an example. As we all know, mid-range products of 1,000 yuan, ordinary manufacturers are solutions to ensure a basic daily experience. It is difficult to experience more than the level of experience. This time, Redmi has equipped it with a 1/1.4-size HPX flagship sensor, as well as a fully decentralized Xiaomi imaging algorithm, and a flagship screen that supports high-frequency PWM dimming, this phone not only guarantees daily experience, but also breaks the industry's unspoken rules of 1,000 yuan without images in one fell swoop.
The so-called consideration for consumer experience in mobile phone manufacturers’ promotion and promotion. You cannot just look at what you said, but you must look at what you did. Apple chose to reduce the configuration of the charger and force the commission. Redmi chose the popularization of flagship configurations, such as fast charging and high refresh rate, from the initial 10w to the popularization of 120w last year, to the 210w this year, the low refresh rate, low-frequency pwm dimming screen in the early years, and to the top-end high-frequency pwm dimming Olyd domestic screen, so that everyone can use the flagship configuration. This is what Redmi does.
Now I heard that iPhone 15 must use the typc-c interface uniformly, but I think Apple will still try every means to protect its own interests, such as giving a relay cable that costs several hundred yuan. This also indirectly proves that the domestic manufacturers who look at the industry are different from Apple's philosophy of treating consumers based on interests.
