Outrageous!! That’s $120 more than I paid for my 256gb 12.9” iPad Pro 2, which, for productivity, is a FAR more capable machine! (Still trying to figure out how to fit it into my pants pocket, however.)
Yeah that's mental. I mean even $1,099 felt like a lot. $1,149 is a punch in the face.
Now let me preorder it!!
Crazy.
Just add another $499,000 and buy yourself a decent apartment in NYC instead.
About 4: it can magically take your money.If Google can convince me to pick up a Pixel 2, they will have saved me from a lot of waiting. The only way I can see this happening:
1: Google shows off a IR/depth sensing camera.
2: More screen surface area than the iPhone X.
3: Dual OIS in dual cameras.
3: Magical features we don't know about that has yet to been seen.
1800 CAD for the 64GB model with AC+
think about this
you use phone to contact anything
if you use it for 3 year, it is just 1 dollar a day
Think of it this way, for each year you don't upgrade, you are saving money/discounting your purchase of an X!
You think that's bad?
Due to taxes etc., the 256 GB X is 10,249.00 DKK here in Denmark. That is 1618.14 USD at todays rates.
And the 256GB 8+ is something like 1334 USD lol...
Apple introduced 3 brand new phones this year. 3 full featured no compromise phones. The 8, 8 Plus and the X all have the same features in terms on CPU, Storage, Performance and only slight differences in clock frequency, RAM, camera, etc. Under the hood they are all essentially the same.
The X is a premium / luxury item and is priced as such. Can't afford the X? That's why the 8 exists... the x probably wasn't meant for you. You aren't sacrificing anything. You can still run the same apps. You can still use the same services.
The X is for those who don't think about price. Ever look at something and wonder "How much does that cost?" In my experience, if you have to ask the question you probably can't afford it. All watches tell time but some people choose a Rolex over a timex. All cars have 4 wheels and get you from A - B... but some people choose a BMW over a Kia.
And some people with Choose an x over an 8 or some other android device...
Where? The only thing that price tag will get you is a closet in someone's house in the basement.![]()
See, this is why you should've gotten the 512GB iPad.Outrageous!! That’s $120 more than I paid for my 256gb 12.9” iPad Pro 2, which, for productivity, is a FAR more capable machine! (Still trying to figure out how to fit it into my pants pocket, however.)
I have a 15% taxIt’s $1,568 with AC+ before tax for the 64gb model.
You must be thinking of the 256gb model. Which is $1,778 with AC+ before tax.
That price tag seems like a tough pill to swallow.
I have a 15% tax
I have a 15% tax
I upgrade annually so I'm only paying half of the phone. (Give it back or sell it for half the cost; easy to do with an iPhone). But most importantly my 7+ 256 is $40 a month and the X 256 will be $47 a month. Only $7 difference! No biggieI don't understand your analogy here. And how would you even consider this for somebody that might upgrade annually.
Especially for a phone that basically does the same thing as every other recent iPhone due to iOS just in a different form factor and a new way to unlock.
Think most will be paying on contract not upfront.Brits will paying the equivalent to $1,524.
That's crazy. Couldn't do it.
That's a hell of a lot of coin to part with.
