$1000 phone? 2 month wait? Nah.

 

[GrizzlyAnimal]

The later date actually works better for me

 

[tay1]

Me being on T-Mobile, no way I'm gonna wanna pay off a 1000 phone in 2 years. Likely to add another 30 to my monthly bill. I'm cool. Samsung, Apple, wylin out here with these prices.

 

[justjof]

Really hope more people opt for the 8+ over the X

cop da Sidekick

The wait is to meet demand of the X. Supposedly there's problems with making them and they can only make a certain amount a day (10,000 units is the number floating around) I'm expecting some type of "gate" with this phone being that all the new features are essentially untested. Face ID even had a problem at the keynote. Real world tests are for us to be guinea pigs.

When the hell they gonna drop the price on the AirPods or even better, include them in box?

cop da Sidekick

They gon try to bring it back. Watch. It would have to be mad thin. With a touchscreen for it to maybe work.

 

[$tatus $ymbol]

Tryna figure whether to sell my 7+ now & cop an 8+ or wait cop the X then sell my 7+

 

[QU!K]

Bruh, X cost $1300 CAD

 

[GrizzlyAnimal]

i know ya'll tired of these, but this one made me laugh

That would be the day!!

 

[PRIME]

If anything i'd think it is a good look.

Shows how advanced the chip set in the X really is.

Yeah, but the MBP is twice the price of an iPhone

That's a bad look for their professional class productivity machines.

I'm paying $2200+ for a MBP, I expect it to be doing higher numbers than my phone

And we know Apple isn't going to go overpower on their computers, which is a problem. It's great for the phone, but that speaks volumes to the amount of work they should be putting into the computers.

People actually wear those airpods?

This

Also people are funny man. I didn’t see half the memes when Samsung dropped the Note 8 for $930 dollars. People really crying about $70 more dollars.

Had mine since the release, just like the standard ones minus the wires. No problems at all with them.

 

[luckyluchiano]

Aint no wait lol they arent taking orders now, what are you talking about?

You arent paying 2200 for an i5 MBP Lol.

 

[Bert.]

Patiently waiting to see drop tests on the 8/8+ to see how strong the glass is. Apple said 50% stronger but the glass wasn't even that strong before so...

 

[tay1]

Oh. Been reading articles saying preorders don' start late October. That's what everybody is reporting.

I'd be down for it if it were like the LX edition

I have to see them in public. Especially my school.

 

[louytromps]

Hyped for the X. I am really happy about the overall size of the phone. I think its the perfect size. Additionally, the new feature and functions seem badass. Android fanatics claim the iPhone copied all its features from them. Maybe... HOWEVER, Apple perfects them.

I lease my phones on a yearly deal via the Apple program. I have no issue paying $50 every month.

 

[Magic33]

X or bust for me. No sense in using JoD to jump to a marginally improved device.

That said, I’m scared to find out the JoD pricing for the 256 X. This is gonna be brutal.

This is how I feel

Apple is encouraging #teamraw with every new iteration of the iPhone. It's damn near the whole selling point of the X

That silver looked beautiful

Mine just arrived today, thankfully my gig paid for them. I'll try them out at my place this evening to see how they work. My buddy says that his doesn't stay in his ear.

 

[krazy88s]

I want the X. But I'm scared to go #raw
