    I want to buy a second hand iPad or MacBook. How am I meant to know which one is which gen?

    The only product they have that is clear and somewhat easy for consumers is the iPhone.

      Always irked me. Not even apple fanboys i know could tell which is which until they know the date of release.

      You don’t intuitively know which quarter of which year which version of a different device with the same name is at a glance?

        They all have model numbers that are on the back of the device and easy to look up

          Interesting because everyone i know always went “which macbook pro is that? Q3 2018?”

          Or is the number system a new addition? Most of my apple. Experience was in uni a good while ago

            It is as old as I can remember, they are just never referred to those numbers in marketing material. Not the best way to do it but they are there.
