Looks like no matter what other competitors do, Apple will always boast to be the first mover in everything. This was the legacy the former CEO Steve Jobs has passed on to the company he worked so hard to build, making and innovating products that has become the standard for all the wireless stuff out there. Well, at least they try and they do try so hard to be at par in technology with the world.
Recently Apple created a marketing campaign resounding to the world how great the camera of their iPhone 6 product was, or is! An interview on 60 Minutes reveals that iPhone 6's camera was made using 200 individual parts, with wires thinner than hair, and that there were 800 engineers working on it. Jonathan Ive, Apple's design chief also let the cameras of 60 Minutes get a rare look into his studio of the revolutionary products Apple offers.
The iPhone gadget was also tested elsewhere, with regards to different set of lighting scenarios. The camera on Apple called the iSight, has a 2.2 apperture that can let more light in to get a good shot. It can also capture 12MP still photos. It's got auto focus, auto white balance and an auto image stabilization tool where you can take four individual shots and place them on a single image. Every pixel was re-engineered to provide a sharper more colorful photo.
Apple spent so much in capitalization for in manufacturing their products since CEO Tim Cook said that he won't compromise the unbreakable encryption technology used in their products just to allow the government have access to their iMessages. He said it could damage the country's national security.
As for the notion regarding Apple trying to cut down their taxes. Tim Cooks explained to 60 Minutes, "That is total political crap. There is no truth behind it. Apple pays every tax dollar we owe... We pay more taxes in this country than anyone," he says.
