    In classical music there is something called the curse of the 9th refering to the symphony. Some composers even skipped the 9th symphony (Mahler calling what was effectively his 9th symphony The Song of the Earth).
    It would have been really smart if Apple took that into account.

      @alshamsi_1232 2 года назад +13

      thats because a lot of computer apps are coded to search for the number 9 in the windows os to identify windows 95/98 so making it windows 9 would create a lot of glitches, bugs and problems that could be avoided if only they just name it windows 10 so they did

    The XR was the "9" (it's the immediate successor to the 8) but they had already released the X (10). So instead of looking like they took a step back they called it XR because R is right before S.

      Microsoft skipped 9 because too many old legacy apps would check to see if they could run by checking the first part of the OS name. Windows 9(5) and windows 9(8). Those apps would problems if they thought they were on a older OS. So Microsoft decided to skip it.

    I think a big reason was the fact that they needed to release X during the 10 year anniversary. There were already 2 other phones aside from the X being released that year(8 & 8+) having a third would be useless since it would most likely have the same design as the 8 and having 3 different new ones sold beside it,it just wouldn’t sell itself.

    Apples 10th anniversary was the same year and because they were close enough to ten they made an iPhone ten to “celebrate” said anniversary, the next year they decided calling the iPhone 9 would cause to much confusion and it would make more sense to continue from ten rather than go back to nine. It’s not that complicated and people are definitely overthinking it.

    I realize this is an old video but I fell like chiming in. MacOS did something similar. When they switched from classic to Unix based, they went from OS9 to OSX. From that point MacOSX was a brand new product and all updates were prefixed by 10. You could have easily called them OSX 1-15 instead but they wanted to keep the image of evolution of the Mac brand. (Until macOS rename and then os11 changed things.)
    So the X name signified a new product line with both MacOS and iPhone. Considering the 8 and the X came out at the same time this makes even more sense. Really the iPhones without a home button are all iPhone X and ones with the home button are non X. (So that new 13 is really a X3 since the X was an X0.)
