Cook: Desktop, tablet should not be unified Win10 strategy will not work

Computer store news: Apple recently released the iPad Pro product. Although the screen size is large and equipped with a keyboard, it is not equipped with a Mac system as the outside world, it is still an iOS product.

In contrast, Microsoft abandoned Windows RT and tried to promote the desktop version of Windows 10 operating system through a platform strategy, such as UWP (Universal Application), which can be used in desktop, tablet, mobile phone and other interoperability.

In this regard, when communicating with Box CEO Aaron Levie, Apple CEO Tim · Cook commented on the company's desktop and tablet platform, and explained that Apple does not currently have the idea of ​​integrating two platforms. .

Cook is resolutely saying: We don't believe that an operating system can take into account both PC and mobile platforms. This is a weakening of both PC and mobile platforms. You won't get the most out of any platform. Good user experience. We have always focused on two platforms.

This is not only an explanation of the positioning of the iPad Pro, but also implies that Cook does not agree with Microsoft "a platform".

Of course, the future operating system will continue to differentiate or move toward unity, I am afraid it will only be confirmed by time.
