Honor CEO Says iPhone 15 Series Lacks Innovation: 'When Everyone Can Expect It Before The Launch...' - Ap

In a surprising turn of events, George Zhao, the CEO of technology company Honor, has recently voiced his dissatisfaction with the iPhone 15 series, accusing it of lacking innovation.

What Happened: According to a report by Mydrivers, Zhao expressed that the new iPhone series failed to meet his expectations. He specifically pointed out the lack of innovation, particularly regarding the phone’s physical design.

Zhao stated, "When everyone can expect it before the launch, we feel a little disappointed." However, despite his critique, he still anticipates that the iPhone 15 series will perform well in the market.

Zhao’s disappointment is primarily due to Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL) continuing to sell traditional bar phones, while Honor has been pushing the envelope with their recent releases. Honor has launched two innovative foldable phones, including the HONOR Magic V2, the thinnest book-style foldable smartphone, and the HONOR V Purse, a smartphone that folds outward and is aimed at the fashion-conscious consumer.

Why It Matters: While rumors have suggested that Apple has been working on foldable prototypes, no concrete evidence indicates an imminent launch. Zhao and other tech enthusiasts and industry watchers will be waiting to see when and if Apple will enter the foldable phone market. This critique from a competitor highlights the increasing pressure on tech giants like Apple to keep innovating and pushing boundaries within the smartphone industry.
