Apple will take whatever is convenient. You're the one losing out

I know it's a strawman argument, but if you feel superior to Apple, how come you didn't come up with the iPhone innovation? Saying Apple doesn't care about me when they obsess about designing amazing products that blow away anything that existed before is a little big disingenuous.

That's not a straw man. That's a non sequitur.

In your reality, do all smartphones have touch interfaces? That's pretty much the definition of a revolution: when you can clearly point to a before and an after.

In my reality touch interfaces exist for decades and smartphones had touch screens for years before your "revolution".
