***** brexit, causing it to be 1:1, a £1000 phone is expensive.
Can we really blame Brexit on this? Sure, the Pound against the Dollar has taken a dive, but they aren't equal to each other to justify this type of pricing conversion.

Honestly, I think Apple are using Brexit as an opportunity to take the piss with pricing. A price increase may be attributable to Brexit, but simply changing the dollar sign to a pound sign on their price sheet is just Apple exploiting the UK market and trying to be greedy.

I'm about 80% sure I'll get the 256GB X. Just depends on how patient I can be. I'm on the 6 Plus so the 8 Plus seems like a pretty decent upgrade, especially given it's a few hundred dollars cheaper.

I asked "Who's buying?" not "Who's not buying?".
Then why have a poll where you can answer “no”, lol.

Buying quite a few to resell. Going to be easy $ during the holidays if there are shortages. No risk either way.

Think I'll wait to see this and the 8 in store then make my decision. I love the look of it but not sure I like the lack of touch ID and the extra £300 from the 8 is a hard sell.

Definitely no. All the more happy I haven't upgraded from my fully paid off 6S, espcially with the $999 price tag and iPhone 8 being nothing more than an iPhone 6SSS.

If I upgrade, it'll be the 2nd generation of this iPhone.

already reserved one. mobilezone in switzerland sent me an e-mail to reserve one right after the event. and i'm pretty sure i must be one of the first people to do it. they only allowed 5000 people to participate in this too. and these 5000 are split between iphone 8 and X

I'm going for 64gb black on IUP.
I wonder how many people will change their opinion when they see them in the wild or get some hands on time with it?

I'll upgrade a case for my iPhone 7+ :)
unless
the carrier is throwing in a "big" promotion like: trade in another smartphone and get the iPhone X for free as a monthly statement credit.
