I don't give a shit about you or your shitty normie phone and your shitty normie brand and your shitty bluetooth connected toilet where google counts all of your shits and recommends you daily dietary advice. As a matter of fact I think you should go check it. You might need more fiber. Just once just once I wish you would stick your head outside and see the world for what it is. Real fuckers don't care about shit some jew posts online. I hope your mother dies.

Decent phone but not worth $1k when you can get an S8+ for like half the price.

It'll be limited supply though. Will probably only be like 10% of all iPhones sold .

What's sad is that Apple will sell a ton of 8/8+ even though it's literally an iPhone 7 with wireless charging. That's it

All of its "features" are things I either don't want my phone to do, like collect biometric data on my face, or I would never use my phone to do, like shoot with "portrait" lighting.

This. Most people who buy these kind of phones aren't actually using them for its full potential, and the developers know this.

They were advertising some emoji face technology. Who gives a shit about that? At $1000, I have to believe this phone is being aimed at rich asian girls, rich techie cunts, camgirls, oil barons.
Wanna do the world a favor? Grab a video camera and go record the faggots walking out of the apple store with these phones so we know who to blame for ruining society. NOBODY who earns their money via a real job would buy this phone. People who buy this phone are the cancerous class who work jobs that pay them obscene amounts of money to take advantage of weaker humans, period.

I don't think you really get the point of smartphones. Normal people use them for basic tasks, such as Facebook Messenger, SMS texting, making calls, using Snapchat, uploading to Instagram, browsing the internet.

Therefore, smartphones are actually status symbols at this point. Apple makes excellent status symbols, and that's what people are buying.

$1K for a fucking emoji machine that won't be out for another couple of months or possibly longer if you don't camp out and the supply line is tight like rumor says.

$1K doesn't include the wireless charger. For $1K, you get the 1A wall wart that doesn't even power the fucking fast charge feature.

$1K for a bunch of "revolutionary" shit the chinks are already doing, in some cases for years.

That hideous notch. Thought it wouldn't be a big deal till seeing it in action.

Previously, simple elegant things like Apple pay have been made more complicated. Now you have to pull the phone out, click the side button, look at it, and wait for it to tell you to hold into the pay point.

Chink phones are IP68 to Apples IP67

Chinks left the headphone jack in.

$1K, no MST card swipe tech. Chink phones wireless pay regardless if it has chink pay or not.

Don't give a fuck about face mapping. Don't give a fuck about super duper augmented reality. Don't give a fuck about talking animated turds.

Muh diversity.

Been with iPhone for a long long time. Headed out to order Chink Note 8 today and it will be here Friday.

Cook is the Ballmer of Apple.

it's brand recognition. currently everyone knows when you're using an iphone almost immediately even from across the room. you know when someone's using a mac way in the background of a newsroom even if the device is out of focus. apple's designs are distinct on purpose.

the bezel notch was done so that anyone can also immediately know which model iphone you're using, and as apple hopes, you notice it, come over to talk about it, see what it's like, learn its features, become jealous and eventually buy one too.

it's literally fashion for the customer, giving the ability to show off, making you feel good for what you own, giving you a sense of loyalty and pride in the company you buy from. it is also for making the units sell themselves--the customers themselves becoming the marketers.

Because Apple customers consists mostly of women and fags of varying ages who loves taking selfies.
No front facing camera = no selfies. Or at least that's how most in that audience would react, and promptly not buy the device.

My Galaxy S8 is more aesthetic, more powerful, more compatible with everything non-Apple, more customisable, more easily unlockable, capable of using headphones without dongles and whilst charging, and has everything the iPhone X has other than the fact I bought this for a few hundred less than the X will be and I've been using it for 6 months already.

Literally the only thing I will give the X over the S8 (or most other flagships) is the status of having an iPhone, which only matters to cancerous people and which anyone can afford anyway with a contract. Even the bloatware and android skin on the S8 is minimal.

>>62411883
Oh yeah, forgot to mention expandable storage, more freedom to download apps not approved by SJWs and execs, torrenting, etc.

I buy phone's contractless and an S8+ is around $850, the same as when I bought my 6S+.

lolno. Aren't those things only good if you're going to be on a plane?

honestly a good BT adapter that had real transparent compression would be OKish, but I don't think those even exist. It's all gay necklaces and shit, totally useless for working out.

Youve been able to get S8's for sub-500 since launch. You're just an unsavvy shopper

Officially. By the way, every phone on previously Android versions after like 4.4.4 still support every app on Play Store, while maintaining the same speed they had at launch. All updates ever do is change some cosmetic things and add mostly useless gimmick features, for both iPhones and Android phones, they are only a excuse to bait you into planned obsolescence, with Apple slowly slowing you down and Android brands just dropping support and luring you with new shiny features.

Or walk over, see how hideous it is up close and decide against it.

Do I have a completely incorrect understanding of what a bezel is or does that thing have a bezel?
>>
>>62412883
I always thought a bezel meant "grinding down" an edge between two surfaces, so that the transition becomes two less sharp edges.

Does anyone really NEED this? Or is it just like people buying fancy cars?

I got a 2nd Gen Moto E like 3 years ago for "free" (10% of my monthly bill was put towards the cost of the phone as a credit, fully paid off now) and it does anything I need it to (music, web browsing, text/call, apps). The idea of spending that much money on a goddamn phone is repulsive.

Is that phone ever going to get through airport security?
>>
>>62415040
I'm sure a person could come up with theoretical scenarios in which they would need the power/performance offered by a high-end smartphone.
The issue with the iPhone X is that it's not a high-end smartphone. It's outperformed in all respects by the flagships of other brands, which are also cheaper.

Most people picture buying an iPhone like buying a luxury item such as a sports car or a Rolex. But it's worse than that; buying an iPhone is like getting suckered into buying a fake Rolex.
