He's not "going to", he's there already.

I Said he's timely.

Before other companies would venture space phone technology, he would have taken the shine off them

It still doesn't mean other top phones will be obsolete.

You really need to understand what's obtainable in innovative technological business world. Time is always of essence.
Everyone is racing to edge others. A lot of people that would buy the phone will buy it for it's features. Nobody is going to be talking about iphone anymore. I remember when Nokia 3310 came out. I remember other phones then. Where are they now?. People tends to tilt towards newer innovations.

Do you know that LG is the most innovative smartphone company,most of the new things you're seeing on smartphones now were already done by LG but where's LG smartphones today?
The dynamic island on the iPhone 14 pro max was already on LG V10 , iPhone just made their own better.

Telsa is not the only innovative companies around, don't make it look like since they are now in the smartphone market,other companies will fold up,it doesn't work that way.

These days smartphone companies are copying themselves and doing it better.

A company started the no 3.5m jack and others a following up, even iPhone just started using the type c port after so many years and iPhone is still in the market, iPhone removed the charger and people complain yet still buy it and other companies are following too.

Others are watching you,if you do it others will copy, Samsung was carrying the foldable phone like gala,now other smartphone like Huawei and Xiaomi are doing it better.

Oppo, Xiaomi, Vivo are the biggest brands in the world, when they came into African market we thought they will displace smartphones like Tecno and infinix but that's a lie till tomorrow Tecno and infinix will still be highest selling phones in Nigeria especially because they are not sleeping too,they are seeing what's obtainable and applying it too, whether Xiaomi does it first or not,they are following.

I have read through everything you posted, but you seem to be missing some points:

1. Blackberry died because it ran an OS that was based on Java, limiting it from performing the wonders that Android (based on Linux) brought into the big picture. Android has a better platform that is developer-friendly, which made it possible for its better app store to get populated.

If you've ever been the Blackberry World app store, you'd understand. Android was faster, smarter and Blackberry (and Nokia) didn't move with quickly with the smartphone era. Maybe ego — maybe bad market research and uninformed partnerships — but it was Blackberry and Nokia's greatest undoing.

2. Pi phone's expected features are futuristic and would entice a lot of people, but this doesn't mean the end of iPhones. Most families are neck-deep into Apple's ecosystem, and so are some businesses. Getting these people to just dump their gadgets will be hard.

Samsung, Motorola, have made flipping and folding smatphones and they still aren't getting as much sales as Apple. Heck, Xiaomi even made an all screen phone and the world quickly forgot about it.

iOS is a major operating system that a lot of companies have their several programs working on; most importantly, developers are making a ton from people's subscriptions on their respective apps.

Here are a couple things to consider:

- what developer will leave a platform that's generating good money for them, from thousands of subscribers, to develop apps for a new OS where they have to start all over?

- I know that the phone could get the Elon effect, but could the marketing around Elon's name floor that of a trillion dollar company, Apple? Would it even floor Samsung or Huawei? These companies have the wealth of years of experience, knowing what works and vice versa.

If you still think that Pi phone might kill Apple because of Elon effect, kindly take a look at Elon's effect on Dogecoin. I worked on several projects, in the crypto space and I know how much guys worship Elon Musk. But did it make Dogecoin outrank the likes of BNB?

Asus ROG came with a laptop with double displays and awesome specs, but the MacBook Pros still sold like pure water, compared to these other windows based PCs with their specs maxed out.

I didn't mean to become Apostle Paul, but saying that iPhones will be gone isn't realistic, because Pi will have more than Apple to compete with, and it will not be funny.
