hey guys johnathan here and 2015 is almost to an end but before we say goodbye let's take a look at some of Apple's most questionable design decisions so first up is the 12-inch MacBook and this is not me hating on the machine I actually like it a lot but the inclusion of one single USBC port boggles my mind because of that if you're using a hub or converter that's going to stop you from doing something as basic as charging your computer at the same time now this is a knock against USB see it's just the fact that this is the sole port on the computer and something as simple as adding a second port would make a huge difference following that is the Magic Mouse tuners not really much it needs to be said I think this really paints the picture and yes I know it only takes a couple minutes to charge but the fact that this is how you do that really showcases the fact that Apple didn't want to take the extra steps put in the extra work and really eat the extra cost to make this a much more efficient design so next up is the Apple pencil and not so much the pencil itself even though it's pricey as hell I think for what is geared for does a fantastic job but more so the way you charge this thing is ridiculous while its battery loves 4 hours of use a lightning connector lets you recharged by plugging directly into iPad pro No and more so beyond just looks this worries the hell out of me that I'm gonna accidentally knock this over and snap that lightning port now last up is some of the Apple kind of surprised everyone with and that is their iPhone battery case at first glance that looks like the iPhone case swallowed a baby iPad and what frustrates me most about this is the laziness and design essentially ruins a potentially cool product if it didn't look ridiculous there are actually a lot of appealing and cool elements to this case the first of which being is the fact that it actually has a Lightning port if you've messed around with any of the third-party battery packs even the more expensive ones like Mophie the problem with those is they use a USB cable so if you're heavily invested into the Apple world you have tons of lightning cables that is one more cable you need to carry around the other really appealing factor about this case is the fact that it works in unison with your phone's not only can you see the battery life on your phone but also your case as well do the notifications pull down from there you're kind of slapped back into reality with frustration due to the fact there is not an on or off port on this case whatsoever so that means you have no control at all of when you want to charge or not charge your phone and I know why Apple wouldn't include something as basic as an on/off switch lastly I think this really emphasizes what I was talking about with Apple being lazy on their design this year they bragged about how they were able to make custom special batteries for the 12-inch MacBook to keep that thin so why couldn't they do something similar for this case if you look towards the top and the bottom there's still quite a bit of space left so why couldn't they flatten this out fill in the rest of the space and make this nice flat and uniform obviously we're never going to know the exact answer but I think it really comes down to Apple not going that extra mile or maybe they normally would have before siphon out that wraps up the video hopefully you guys enjoyed it if you did and you are feeling like being awesome make sure to go Santa on that like button definitely subscribe if you having it this is day three of the twelve days of TLD this is Jonathan and I will catch you guys later
