      And Motorola had true wireless earbuds earlier, etc.

      Apple is about polish, not novelty, but a ton of people are obsessed with the idea of Apple as being “groundbreakers” everywhere.

        Apple’s focus on polish makes them a not-1st-mover. The Apple vision pro isn’t the 1st virtual or augmented reality device. The Airpods max isn’t the 1st pair of wireless headphones.
