Another survey about Apple is out so you fuck what that means : It ’s fourth dimension to misinterpret it .

pen for the collection of genus Circus poodles jumping through hoops that has the oddly inaccurate name ofBusiness Insider , Jillian D’Onfro says”Apple Pay has been a ‘ dashing hopes ’ to nearly half its users . ”(Tip o ’ the antler to@JonyIveParody . )

Oh , no ! That would surely be terrible if that were at all what this survey evince ! respectable affair it does n’t . Kind of dodged an notional bullet there . Phew .

Nearly one-half of the people Phoenix surveyed who tried to use Apple Pay in - store reported trouble with the serving .

No , in fact , they did not . Turns outtwo - thirdsof people who used Apple Pay reported “ job with the service . ” “ most half ” of people who tried to use Apple Pay said they pass away tousethe service and found out the memory board was not plant up for it despite the mountain chain claiming to accept Apple Pay .

But that is not a “ trouble with the help . ” That isnoservice . The way the write up phrased it was “ Consumer need for Apple Pay usage is in the lead of merchandiser power to accept Apple Pay . ” Just like withsupposed Apple Pay fraud , the actual job is with the mate , not the Apple serve .

“ 47 % visited a storage that was listed as an Apple Pay merchant only to find out that the specific store they visited did not accept ( or were not quick to accept ) Apple Pay . ”

This is like tell get dear with Benedict Cumberbatch or Christina Hendricks ( or Benedict CumberbatchandChristina Hendricks ) is so super disappointing because you ca n’t really get close to having the slightest opportunity at making beloved with Benedict Cumberbatch or Christina Hendricks .

I think of , wait at yourself , Lenny . You ’ve really let yourself go .

When the dashing hopes is centered aroundnotbeing able-bodied to do something , you ca n’t logically take people are disappointed in the something . “ I am disappointed I could not get into Disneyland ” is not the same affair as “ I am disappointed in Disneyland . ”

And , yes , the Macalope is equating love making to a day at Disneyland . He stomach by that . Both are fun and make you think seriously about nativity control .

Well , surely this is a huge study with a giant sample size that in no direction eh , not exactly .

For its study , Phoenix surveil more than 3,000 households . Of those menage , there were 523 iPhone 6 or 6 Plus owners , 350 Apple Pay adoptive parent , and 302 Apple Pay user who have made at least one purchase in the retiring four calendar month .

This does n’t stand for it ’s not an indicator , of line , but it ’s only really correct to say thatthose surveyedhad these experience , not all Apple Pay user .

Of naturally , there have been problems in the actual function of Apple Pay .

“ Two - out - of - three Apple Pay user have reported a problem at checkout , ” another Pheonix investigator , Leon Majors , write …

But none of this articulate what the headlines says , that people who actually got to use Apple Pay were “ disappointed . ” You could have problems with something and still like it . Just require the Macalope ’s wife . ( Donot , under any luck , ask the Macalope ’s married woman . )

Despite this not being what it ’s purpose to be at all theBoy Genius Reportfound it too attractive not to jump on like a capybara on whatever capybaras eat up . That ’s just how tech reporting works . And capybaras .

” Apple Pay has disappoint early adopter ”

They ’re thwarted ! In Apple Pay ! attend !

“ The demand is there : 59 % of Apple Pay users have gone into a store and asked to make a purchase with Apple Pay , ” researcher Greg Weed writes . “ But so is the disappointment : 47 % visited a storage that was listed as an Apple Pay merchant only to recover out that the specific store they visit did not accept ( or were not ready to bear ) Apple Pay . ”

See ? ! The guy articulate “ disappointment ! ” Therefore people are let down in Apple Pay . QED .

Reading comprehension is not only not require , it ’s really an impediment . Much like the native land security measures mantra “ If you see something , say something , ” the tech reporter ’s Apple sketch mantra is “ If you see a sketch , do n’t stop to understand it , just link it up very fast , hurry , hurry , HURRY . ” It ’s less pithy , but still accurate .
