Better cameras, potentially Face ID 2, and maybe more RAM. Plus any other features they could introduce, I am hoping for ProMotion on the OLED models.

Apparently you didn’t read the actual article then??? If you’d read the first post, you’d see that I was referring to what had been said.
I’ll give you a hint... the statements I was referring to, are in the very first paragraph of the story in the very first post that started this whole thread.
X is discontinued, replaced by newer model that is rumored to be mostly the same as last year, except A11—>A12 for CPU and 3GB—>4GB RAM.
That’s where you went wrong... how dare you ask... take what you’re given... pay the premium price... and be grateful for the privilege.
Don’t know we’ll see. But since 802.11 ax isn’t due until 2019 I wouldnt wait for it.
Or they could just designed and manufacture iPhones worse.
If Apple isn't going to be rewarded for their effort, why put as much work in?
For the eternal gratitude of people who judge what 'correct' profit margin is?
Yeah... no.
I don't see what's wrong with an LCD screen (and I have an OLED). In a number of comparison tests reviewers have said it's pretty darned hard to see much of a difference (if any) between the 8 plus and the iPhone X especially with True Tone.
Hint: how could the article cite “lower than expected”, when Apple doesn’t publish their expectations?
The A12 Is fabricated on TSMC’s new 7nm process node so battery life will increase, unless Apple uses a smaller battery to decrease weight.
An 8 plus with edge to edge screen. Is that basically this year’s 6.1 X plus phone? I’m trying to get an idea of how big the 6.1 will be.
Apple Pencil support, LMAO.
I don't think the current apple pencil could be used properly on an iPhone, and if they create a mini apple Pencil, they need to find some way to have it be on the device (otherwise, it's just another thing you carry).

This wishlist might be more realistic in 2019 or 2020, it would be nice if some of those features were available this year, though.
iPhone this, iPhone that..bleh..
Still no mention of the Mini or of the rest of the MAC line...

3GB of RAM and 64GB at baseline? I’m in. Finally an iPhone with a base model that fits my needs and gives me more RAM than my current 6S. I’m finding 64GB to be the sweet spot for my usage (never fill more than 75% of my 64GB 6S).
Now hoping that the LCD model will be dual SIM universally.

I just really want an iPhone SE X 
Really though slap the camera of the iPhone X on the SE and upgrade the processors and internals, and I'd be a completely happy camper. I'm kind of done with the large format phones.

I'm kind of done with the large format phones.I lust after the red iPhones. I wish they would release the new ones out of the gate, instead of using them for a mid-cycle bump.
My 6s+ still just works. Tell me again why I need a new phone. Guess I am just not cool enough any more.
The question is, how the rest of the lineup would look like? It is clear that the 8 and 7 would go down a tier, but what about the SE and 6S? Would the SE disappear replaced by the 6S, or the 6S disappear (replaced by the 7) while the SE remains?
Nonetheless, the SE/6S can be a great device to get for some as they’re the last iPhones with headphone jacks.

I was wondering that as well. What the heck do you put on a phone that you would need 512 gigs? Movies? And why wouldn't an iPad be better for that? I don't get it.
The competitors outside Samsung is barely making any money. Even Samsung is pushing their prices up as well.
Apple is trading off less volume with higher ASP.
Regardless of what we think, we will see what the market will bear. Who would’ve thought that people would be buying the $999 X. Come this September, a better one would be available for $100 less.
Probably going to have the base model 32gb an amount that 99% of users can’t use for $899 and then the only other model 512gb an amount that is way to much for 99% of users and then charge $300 more for what costs them $40 to upgrade that way most people are forced to buy a $1200 phone. Just my guess.
i just hope Apple won’t leak EVERYHTING through a firmware again like last year. I mean the HomePod firmware pretty much leaked everything on the keynote last year.
