Its easy, this is how, which can be quickly summed up using a mathematical formula:

Fantastic design + sleek user interface + fashionable products + iconic name / logo = Apple products.

Basically a licence to print money.

Where they're losing their mojo is where people are still impressed with the design and the fashionable parts of owning iPhones, but their UI is becoming dull, limited as Apple is left behind by new innovations like NFC and still not implementing functions like Bluetooth and so the customers are slowly noticing Apple phones "do less" than their WP / Android counterparts.

But remember when China and Apple were in dispute over the iPod name or something?? Oh no mate RIM?? Maybe you can change that by working for Samsung SA Phone Dog do their weekly top ten of phones for the peoples choice and in America the 4S dropped to No.11

Maybe we'll be seeing the iPhone 5S sooner than we think if they keep losing such large fanbases !

Sorry to all the Apple owners out there, but they've asked for this treatment for a long time. Such a horrible company.

I wouldnt ask you to. I respect your choice.

I dont think Apple should ever stop making phones, if they play along with the other manufacturers nicely theres no reason why they cant all take a piece of the market.

As a consumer i want choice. But if Apple want me to not have a choice they shouldnt expect me to buy into their products.

I think when ios users will get sick of their brand not moving forward and trailing behind in the tech wars what Im going to see is a lot of headaches. Why? think of the amount of people looking to move platforms from iOS. They will lose everything, apps, music, photos etc. Why cant Apple, and more to the point all platforms agree that if you want to switch between platforms that nothing is lost. Especially if you paid for a lot of apps on itunes,play etc and the surprising things is most of the apps are all on the platforms anyway. I think thats the fundamental thing to be honest which is sad because who loses out is us - the consumer.

Very true that is why at last Microsoft is finally bringing the data and apps etc back up service in to WP8. But cross platforms is so far unheard of but I guess none of them wan to do that to lose customers
