New Apple iPhones and iOS 7

Greetings from Mobile Generated News®  MoGN!

If you haven’t heard by now, Apple has announced two new iPhones, the iPhone 5-C and the iPhone 5-S that will both be available in Apple Stores and other Apple outlets this Friday, September 20^th.  The iPhone 5-C also is available for pre-sale with Free Shipping directly from Apple effective last Friday the 13^th.

Many in the media and the public are condemning these two new products without having the opportunity to see or test them.  Admittedly, I am a Gadget Geek and I own several Apple products.  I have an iPhone 5, iPad 4^th Generation, iPad Mini and an iMac at home.  I have always been amazed by the intuitive nature of Apple Products without the need of having to call Tech Support or consult an online manual.

I am not an Apple snob, Some of my best friends have Android phones and tablets!

Chief competitor, Samsung makes decent products.  However, I am not impressed with the fit and finish of the Samsung Galaxy or the various tablets that are out there that are not iPads.  I find them clunky and need to study the owner’s manual to figure them out.

So why are people so quick to judge?

What Apple started, with the late, great Steve Jobs, was a company committed to making computers and peripherals that are stylishly simple and intuitive to operate.  Certainly his shoes are difficult to fill but before you condemn Apple and Tim Cook, at least let’s evaluate the two new iPhones and the products to come.

I will also be very surprised if iOS-7 is not a huge hit.  From what I have been reading about it, it should be quite a leap forward from the current operating system.

What do you think?  I look forward to your comments.
