great news! proof has come out showing wifi, the front facing camera, and battery life on safari are all worse compared to the iphone x. enjoy ur downgrade!
Thanks for the troll. Please share your proof and let people know where you’re gonna go and play sheep now that your previous preferred shepherd has fallen out of luck with you.
You mean act like an adult and be responsible for your actions, and stop blaming other for you purchasing decisions? Your dad would be proud.
Telling others to not spend their money as they please, calling them Sheep is is one none of your business and two arrogant. Yes it’s a lot of money or it’s chump change, just like every other product. Very few pay full price anyway, particularly those who upgrade every year, use carrier promotions, etc. only ones who pay full price are those who purchase and never upgrade. The Iphone has used value for years.
I'm thinking of upgrading to Xs(still have the 6), but i'll wait til Mate 20 pro comes out and decide then. Currently i'm more intrigued by the Mate and all of its features.
And yet the fiscal quarter was a record breaker, which is why I take these stories with a mountain of salt.
Apple isn’t forcing anyone to buy an iPhone. If you don’t think it is worth the money, then there are plenty of other choices around. Apple also has a range of price points. You don’t always have to have the latest and greatest. I upgraded from a 6 plus to an 8.
You have every right to do such. Apple has never forced anyone to buy any single product.
It’s ironic some posters choose to quote him.
Just do a search on Ewan Spence, that’s the Forbes writer and see what comes up.
I concur on the note 9 being overpriced for what it is.
So who's getting the Galaxy S10 February 2019?Could be a game changer, never know
If the s9/note 9 were any indication, not that many.
I heard the same thing about the s10 being a game changer with a notch and no headphone jack.
Hope you enjoy it.
Not for a phone, but for a miniature computer with so much computing power, that it's almost unreal.
You're saying that like Apple is selling a landline telephone, what many of you don't realize is that these devices are masterpieces of the 21st century technology.
My wife told me she knew some new tricks in bed, but she didnt add anything new and just wore different panties
I honestly don’t understand the point of this thread.
People are complaining that a company is somehow “robbing” them and forcing to pay more than $1000 for a device.
They aren’t forcing anyone, they are creating a desirable product and including an ecosystem that is attractive to lots of people. It drives desire to own the product, but you don’t have to buy. This is how capitalism works. It drives innovation. It creates competition among companies working in the same space. It gets everyone better stuff.
Most people who complain about it would feel totally different if it was their product to sell, guaranteed.
I don’t know a single person, who if we’re selling a product, and could get $10 for it in the free market would decide to sell it for $6, do you?

Did you ever come and admit that the camera in the XS is materially better than in the X, as almost all reviewers have pointed out due to increased sensor size and a better wide angle lens?
Now you're acting like someone who is insecure about your decision not to upgrade. I also decided not to upgrade, but certainly wish the best for those who did.
The iPhone Xs Max is an expensive (arguably overpriced) but good device, and the WiFi / front facing camera / charging issues look to be caused by software bugs that should be fixed in a future update.
That basically describes every cellphone sold today with the exception being varying computing power.
I think computing power in phones is somewhat a lie though as I’ve said in the past. Apps that make use of the power take time to be developed and even then only in edge cases do you see significant differences.
Is it a lie? Same lie as PC then, I mean MS Office doesn’t require core i9 does it?
There are plenty of enterprise focused apps and pro video and photo editing apps now on mobile. It’s just a matter of whether you’re looking for them or not.
Phones are fast enough now that in the case of iOS a 7 Plus, X and XS. The currently available apps run find on all of them.
If you want to edit pro video regularly on mobile. Chances are most would probably at a minimum use some type of iPad.
I don't take anyone seriously that calls anyone "iSheep". Those of us that use iOS know why we use it,
the ecosystem, and build of the iPhone. Is it perfect? no. Nothing is, but I wasn't ever happy with Android devices. I don't like the unpolished look of the Android UI, the fragmented OS, etc. Those that do love Android, I don't put down and call them names, that's just so juvenile. It's a personal preference.
