Early on Apple squandered a huge performance opportunity using the Motorola processors. It was pretty sad watching software on a Mac emulator on other machines based on the 68000 chip run faster than it ran natively on a Mac. The architecture for the chips to talk to each other was pretty bad on the Mac.
Apple has always had a lead in style and in marketing their portable devices.
They still make a lot of money on the peripherals for their portable devices.
Apple, Amazon, Microsoft and Google are all thugs really.
