Given how incredibly profitable the iPhone has been and continues to be, I don't think one can say that they are late to the party. They tend to test out everything rather than just throw a bunch of stuff up on the wall and sees what sticks. From what I read, Apple has had larger screen prototypes for a number of years, so they have been testing it. One could say that the iPod was "late to the party" since it wasn't the absolute very first mp3 music player. They took their time and did it right. That approach has been very successful for them.

Translation: Android does it second: they're copying Apple. Apple does it second: they're taking their time and doing it right.
