“The other thing I think you can take away from this is that thin is also a precursor to foldable,” added Michael Goodman, a senior contributing analyst with Parks Associates, a market research and consulting company specializing in consumer technology products, in Addison, Texas.
“You have to go thin before you can go foldable,” he told TechNewsWorld. “Thin is in, but thin is also a precursor to the future. And the future is going to be somewhere down the line, maybe next year, maybe the year after that, but somewhere down the line, we’re going to see a foldable iPhone.”
Apple putting a heart monitor into its AirPods Pro 3 and blood pressure detection into its watch are aggressive moves into the health tech sector, Parks’ Goodman argued.
“It potentially sets them up to create a health tracking ecosystem,” he continued. “Apple loves a good ecosystem, so I think there’s potential down the road to integrate some of these new attributes in these devices into an integrated health tracking system.”
