Apple's best product ever
The Vergecast
Webbys, movie night, and Apple rankings
David Pierce and Nilay Patel preview the episode, plug the Webby vote, announce a Sneakers movie night, and set up the Apple ranking segment.
We love a ranking here on The Vergecast, and it’s time for the hardest one yet: David and Nilay compare notes on the 50 best products Apple has ever made, and see how their answers stack up to the many, many voters on The Verge this week. Before that, though, it’s time for a bit of AI news — surprise, it’s enterprise software! — and the comeback of the Hype Desk. After all that, and after the rankings, we do a round of Brendan Carr is a Dummy, talk about the fediverse, and repurpose our old iMacs.
