I wonder how the battery life is on X vs 7+. They said 2 extra hours from 7, which is much less than the 7/7+ battery gap.
 
On the fence. I never upgraded my 6 Plus because i wanted a fresh design. The X ticks all my boxes except the price... almost 1400$ for the 64GB version where I live. That’s a lot of money for a lot of tech that has yet to proove itself.

The 8 has proven tech but dated design... yet it may be the most sensible option until the X becomes the mainstream iPhone model.
 
I think we reach a point of price becoming ridiculously crazy now for just a phone. Here in Canada the X will cost between 1300 for the base model and 1500 for the 256GB I'm sure. Its the price of a macbook or close to a base iMac model.

Plus, the iPhone 8 and 8 plus dont have a 128GB option. 64GB is not enough for me and 256 is overkill...This is a way to increase pricing again because they force some people to buy the 256GB one. No this time I think I'll pass its becoming too crazy now and prices need to go down.
 
Iphone 8 Plus for me ...

IPHONE X will be an X lol will never sell like the iphone 8/8+

The fingerprint sensor and home button is more important than the all screen Phone.
 
Yea, been holding off and need to replace my 6. I just hope that the price will scare away those looking to start "bendgate", "crackgate", "dropfailgate", "deadpixelgate" and finally "willitblendgate". For once I'd like to have the opportunity to order a product and not wait weeks because of stupidity.

I just wish they could shutdown those looking to scalp the phone for a high resale on Ebay. Tired of product shortages caused by this behavior. I know, I know...fat chance........

Ryan, they cover this if you do a compare on the Apple site. Seem the X falls between the 2, at least when compared with the 8. For some items, as good as the 8+ for others only as long as the 8. It seems video driven, with video based task running a 8 life and audio/cell service more in line with the 8+

This is what I don't get. They give us 4k this, AR games, and all that which obviously take up a buttload of space. What is 64gb doing for anyone? Once you bump up the ip8 or ip8+ to 256gb, the price is eye watering. 128gb should have been standard, and it would be worth the $50 increase.
At least you can add an SD card to expand your storage......oh wait. Apple hasn't invented that yet.
 
256 space gray.
Already in my Apple Store app favorites.
I'm still on a 64g 6+, time for a new form factor. $1149, not much more than I paid for the first ipad 12.9. I love to see new hardware technology.
 
I’m torn between silver or space gray. Have always gotten the black/gray because of the stupid white face.

But now....

IF I buy one, it will be the 256GB Silver. The price is ludicrous. I will be waiting to see what types of carrier based offers I can get for purchasing one. If not, then I will be holding onto my 7's for dear life.
 
I'm definitely picking up a 256GB X. I'm a little torn on color though. Does anyone know if the "Silver" phone actually has a white back like the 4/4S or is it actually silver in color? None of the pictures I've seen this far seem to capture that perfectly.
