Tim Cook Explained Why iPhones Are Released Every Year

Apple introduced us to its new products, including the iPhone 15 family, at an event held last September. The company’s CEO, Tim Cook, has also been giving interviews since this event. The famous businessman now spoke to Brut.

Cook answered the questions in his interview with the magazine. Among these “Why are iPhones released every year?”, “What will iPhones look like in 20-30 years?” There were questions like.

Having a new iPhone every year is a “wonderful thing” for those who want it, says Cook

One of the questions asked to Cook in the five-minute video was why a new iPhone model comes out every year. The CEO did not give a very satisfactory answer, stating that a new iPhone coming out every year is a great thing for people who want it. He continued by talking about the ability to replace iPhones and how they integrate non-working phones into new ones. Cook’s full statement is as follows:

“According to me Owning an iPhone every year is a great thing for those who want it. What we do is people pick up their phones and to change to enable. We will resell that phone if it still works. Even if it’s not working disassembling and getting the materials needed to build a new iPhone “We will find ways.”

Of course, there are other reasons behind Apple releasing new models every year that Cook did not mention. The main reason, simply put, as we can all guess, is to make money. Knowing that there are customers in the market who want to renew their phones every year, the company is trying to increase its profits in this way. We see this not only in Apple, but in all companies from Samsung to Xiaomi.

What will iPhones look like in 20-30 years?

Another question Cook answered was about what iPhones will look like in the future. CEO said, “Do you think an iPhone 20 or 30 years later What will it look like? Do you think innovations and technology can save the planet?” He approached the question cautiously and mentioned that the phone would be environmentally friendly rather than its appearance:

“According to me carbon neutral will be. Frankly, I think it will be much more advanced than it is now, but I wouldn’t want to give you all our secrets about it. “Just from an environmental perspective, I can say it will be carbon neutral.”
