Defining success is hard then. If they go with a certain design trend and then change it, was that success? Just because of widespread adoption? “Enough success “ is also hard to pin down. What’s a thing Apple has done successfully first?

With a product it's pretty simple: sale numbers, market share, adoption rate. The iPhone is just the best example. Sure there were already mobile internet devices out there like the Nokia N800 I owned myself, and android was already in development, but Apple put out a mass-market compatible modern smartphone first.
