Not counting the Touch Bar or the Apple Watch, in the last five years Apple has introduced Siri, Touch ID, Apple Pay, the world's first 64-bit mobile chip, retina laptops, retina desktops, retina tablets, EarPods, the Apple Pencil, 3D Touch, Lightning, and iCloud.* They've redesigned the MacBook Pro twice, ditched skeuomorphism, and made the fastest processors in the most competitive segment year after year after year. And they've made tons of "incremental" but huge improvements to their cameras, their flash storage, their radios, their durability…
Of those, the ones where a serious argument can be made that Apple has been "matched and or surpassed" are Siri and iCloud. That's it.

All three of them.
