What did they deceive you on? As far as I saw, they didn't even really talk about it, just listed the amount of RAM.
Apple’s not stupid...they know there is a certain percentage that will buy no matter what price they put and as long as something is new to the point it overshadows the rest. They market to that group to get the max $$ from them no questions asked....I’m not from that group...we all know Apple by putting 16gb implied and otherwise many things that don’t happen...smart to wait till the facts come out and they always do but money is spent and to late...what is wrong holding them accountable?

Didn’t you just more or less contradict your title for this post? Just admit that your post was/is click-baity and overly dramatic.
No they have lost their mind for the majority even though some don’t know it...there will always be some that buy because they follow....why don’t you admit you’re one of those and I an one that questions being taken. Lol good try though...well not really but keep reaching.

Then vote with your wallet and move on from Apple since this is their business model. To me you just sound like someone who’s bitching that they can’t afford it. There are other options out there. Move on with your life.

Really? You got any proof?

Look real to me.

That’s cause you’re biased, they didn’t outsell all laptops combined last year, no matter how you try and spin it...they are a side piece to real work computer and always will be. Truth

You don’t have to worry about my finances. I could easily afford one of these every month without breaking a sweat. Well, I was talking about you completely moving away from Apple, not just from this iPad.

Then don’t worry about mine and certainly don’t tell me what to do...just because Tim tells you what to do doesn’t work on other people.

Yeah, I guess it's not my problem that some people just want to bitch about it. Good luck trying to change Apple and keep up the good fight, haha.

Because some people take their money seriously, if you don’t then chow. When this becomes a serious machine then it could be priced as such but it’s still the side piece no matter how fast you can open an email.

Well, yeah. Everybody has an internal checklist that needs to get crossed before they make a purchase. That $2,000 iPad doesn’t do it for you.

Other people have a checklist that’s different than yours and for whatever reason the iPad is doing it for them.

Who really cares what other people are doing?

You still don’t get it. This isn’t for the majority. Just like the MacPro isn’t for the majority.

There are other iPads and other Macs for “the majority “. But for people that need the performance these machines offer it is there for them.

Clearly that isn’t you. And clearly, as they are selling, it is someone.

You’re just an Old man yelling at clouds.

And like the court jester making me laugh.

No, you are not right. You questioned why anyone would buy this. Claiming that anyone who would had lost their mind

Now you are changing your argument because you realize you were wrong.

Nice try though. But I do understand English. Even complex sentences. But perhaps English is not your first language. That could explain things.

And please don’t stop posting. I’m enjoying laughing. It is almost as if your are intentionally playing the fool.

Cheers!
Is that what the iPad Pro was for ...translate complex sentences...see that explains it, you should have said that from the beginning, I heard they had complex apps to help people understand sentences. I just never needed it.

Nope. Try again.

Clearly you need all the help you can get!

Financial, cognitive, with the ability to think logically.

You’ve got playing the fool nailed though! Keep it up!

try what, who’s trying anything...clearly all those Apple devices hit a malfunction in your posting, but keep buying...Tim thanks you for his retirement fund

Do your own research if you don’t get it...so your saying that the majority of iPad sales are the top end iPad? Lol wow no wonder Apple makes a killing odd you guys...not a lick of common sense lol

I didn't say anything. You made an assertion - back it up. You can't, it's just an opinion.

He doesn’t have any facts. Just his ego driven opinion.

Alas, my time for such foolishness is over.

I hope the OP gets the help they need.

Bye!

You think Cook needs a retirement fund? Are you out of your mind like Apple? ;)

Yeah, maybe we should just ignore him and he'll just go away along with this thread.

You are right - they aren't stupid and offer a range of different tablets from the lower end to the most powerful tablet out there, giving people lots of choices on what to buy. However, you still haven't answered the question of what Apple deceived people about. They offer a high end model with lots of storage and more RAM. What is deceptive or implied about that?
