I think The Verge nailed down my stance on the newest Apple's products pretty well: theverge.com/2015/12/8/98727…

@bitboss Disagree on the mouse (which I have), can’t comment on the iPad Pro (yet), full ack regarding the butt-ugly iPhone case

@stilkov @bitboss the most recent apple mouse is the anti-pattern of form follows function.

@phaus @bitboss How so? It’s charged once a month for 2-3h, I don’t see a problem with that design at all.
1
@stilkov @bitboss so why make the mouse unusable while charging? Even for only for some hours, but why?

Replying to @phaus
@phaus @bitboss To avoid an ugly, visible hole in the case that serves no use 99.5% of the time, I guess.

@stilkov @bitboss so: function follows form instead of form follows function.

@phaus @bitboss One could argue there is no need for the device to function while it’s charging. I didn’t need to yet. But whatever.

Replying to @stilkov
@stilkov @phaus @bitboss design is More about usability than beauty IMHO

@ewolff @stilkov @phaus I would say a good design merges usability, beauty and feel (Haptik in German)
