absolutely disgusting. Apple won't give up the trademark home button

Why is Apple adopting OLED? Is that better than IPS?
>>
>>59161757
Yes.
Inherently better colors and thinner. Can have lower power draw in some situations.
Also you can view it from any angle without color changing.

cool, i guess

>will start at $1000

>>59161757
OLED is bound to replace IPS sooner than later.

OLED pixels only turn on when it needs to, that's why they have "richer blacks".

LCD pixels are always on. Also OLED is flexible and more energy efficient.

LCD has already reached it's peak.

I've been a diehard applefag for six years and this is actually making me consider dropping iPhone, and possibly apple altogether. After they decided to raise the price of the MBP for no good reason, and now this. A starting price of $1000 will easily be $1300-1500 in leafland, which is double what I paid for my 6+

I have a 6s Plus 128GB right now in perfect condition, will probably sell for $500-600. I can get the new 8 when it comes out for like $400.

>>59161893
Nah that chink cited in the article is usually spot on.

Don't forget, there's a lot of prototypes being made at FoxConn and they are shipped back to the states for Apple. In the middle of those shipments some asshole gets a hold of some of them and leaks info.

I do, but then again I don't buy lagdroid shit anymore. Even when I did I soldiered on and dealt with the bad user experience for years at a time. People who upgrade yearly or more frequently than that make me sick—you dumb consumerist whores should do the research and buy something that will last, but instead you settle for chink shit which will end up in a landfill before mine's even out of service.

Awesome. I don't give a fuck about Apple, but at least this means that if the headphone jack does, USB C can become the truly universal audio port and accessories won't be divided between iPhone and everyone else. Also thought it was strange that the macs switched to USB C while the iPhone didn't, so you can't use a USB C to USB C cable to connect an iPhone to a Mac.

Finding buttons isn't the problem. It feels like I have to hold the phone the "proper" way just to avoid accidentally changing the volume. The power button was lower on the Note 7, thus avoiding this issue.

Non-poorfags or rational people simply place preorders. Only actual poorfags do this sort of stuff to pretend to be rich.

Also I probably count as upper middle class so I'm not a poorfag but not really a richfag either. Only people who have no experience with managing money (poorfags who think owning applel products make them rich) think that wasting money is a sign of wealth. You don't get rich by wasting money.

I don't want to get into a semantic argument with you. I think a lot of the people who camp for iPhones are idiotic children of people who are "rich" by poor people standards but who generally aren't wealthy. All of these under-30 special snowflakes seem to have different ideas of what constitutes intelligence, wealth, etc., so it's hard to talk about these things without someone getting asspained about standards.

Using your credit card for those benefits and covering the full amount the following statement is not financing.
Many stores have their own financing options who will work with people who don't have credit cards with high limits at the cost of insane interest rates and no benefits.
You're the idiot.

but the new USB-C adaptor for those who still got lightning will come with apple logo? thats the only important question for this thread
>>
>>59161744

Apple literally loves removing things from products. It's what they do.
>>
Honestly I'd like this to happen just so USB-C becomes completely universalised, but I'm not sure. Apple's sunk a lot of money into developing a Lightning ecosystem, but more importantly it's about half the thickness of USB-C which is what Apple's all about at the moment.

As an aside, I think going purely with USB-C on the new MBP was a great idea and hopefully it'll only be a few more years before 3.5mm jacks will be phased out completely. That'll also mean digital audio output as standard which is only a good thing.

USB C is used in pretty much every device you can connect to a computer now. Even my drone uses USB C to charge it.

I dislike apple, but its good that they're not going to be nick and diming their customers for new charging cables or retarded dongles
>>
>>59163274
High-end Android phones like Nexus 6P and 5C have it. I'm pretty sure Galaxy-series has it too IIRC.

USB-C might not be widespread, but that doesn't make it an emerging industry standard.
>>
The WSJ article does NOT say Apple is abandoning the Lightning connector which is not something they'll ever do, it's better than USB-C even in spite of it not being used in nearly as many devices (obviously).

The secondary article doesn't mention such a rumor either, it talks about other things.

Same here, I have an M8 and while it's showing it's age, I have no incentive to upgrade other than slightly new hardware. I've derived a lot of value out of this one.

That, and I like HTC as a developer.

>>59170339
You realize that all the people who bought Lightning-equipped iPhones now need dongles if they decide to upgrade, right? Tim Cook realized that he can make more money selling adapters to his products than the products themselves.

Not them, but the lack of quick charge seems to be the biggest fault.
>>

Quickcharge kills your battery real quick. I have a Note 4 and in less than a year the original battery only held 50% charge. I bought a replacement battery and only charged it via PC overnight, still holds great charge almost 2 years after.
I guess it doesn't matter anyway because most people on /g/ get a new phone every 6 months anyway.
>>
>>59161719
The connector is dead but the standard sure as hell isn't. Also, this is a good thing. USB C is a non proprietary connector and will become the universal standard for everything.
>>
>>59161757
Yes, but it is far more expensive to do larger panels vs IPS.
>>
>>59161719
So they're going to have one abortion of a phone (the 7) that has no headphone connector and is forced to use Lightning-connected earphones/adapters while they move everything over to USB-C (USB-C EarPods when?).

I mean it'll be fucking fantastic if every device uses the same connector, but the move is going to be hella painful.

Plus isn't USB-C much thicker than lightning? Has Apple finally given up the quest for T H I N?
