The very definition of the word "innovative" is "featuring new methods, both advanced and original." If Apple has been able to best everyone at their best feature, then, by definition, AirPods are innovative since they do things that nobody else has ever been able to do before, right?

> "featuring new methods, both advanced and original."

When you Google the word "innovative" that's almost the definition that comes up, only slightly different punctuation. Google says "featuring new methods; advanced and original."

In any case it's stating that to be innovative the method must be new, advanced, AND original. If it's not all three, then it's not innovative.
