The State of Apple in 2013, so far…

The first Quarter of 2013 is in the past, and here’s what we know:

  • Apple has not held any special events in 2013
  • Apple has not released any new products in 2013 so far
    Capacity increase in iPad and processor update in MacBook Pro do not count as new product
  • It is Apple’s 37th Anniversary as of April 1, 2013

Things that analysts, investors and pundits are disappointed about, among others:

  • Apple has not released any Television sets as rumored
  • Apple has not released any watches as rumored
  • Apple has not released “cheap iPhone” as rumored
  • Apple has not released gigantic iPhone as rumored

What’s coming from Apple in 2013, assuming they would update their product lines:

  • The successor to Mac Pro
  • The successor to iPhone 5
  • The successor to iPad and iPad mini
  • The successor to iOS 6
