because with 16GB, they’ll get a lot of lash back i imagine. like— a considerable amount of people wouldn’t buy the phone because of this.
the balance they’ve come up with now is 64GB buy in... and no fast charger included.
and they’re selling a crapton.
if enough people didn’t buy the product for storage reasons.. or charger reasons..
then they’d include these items or up the capacity.
for now though, they don’t really have a reason to include this.. as far as i see it at least.
apparently others think there are reasons Apple has to include the charger though i’ve yet to see a reason listed..
other than “i want this (but i’ll buy it regardless)”
I will give you a great reason...
Fast charging is just about the norn now! And I'm sorry but I do use my phone all day, from when my eyes open until they close, I've owned all the plus models because I need the extra battery life! I get god knows how many Emails a day, to many texts to count, and even do something called talk on my phone quite often which so many people don't do anymore. All that basically applies to running my business and doesn't include the small recreational things I do like visiting the net to chat with people like you, Watching you tube, and just basic BS that we are all guilty of throughout the day that brings down the battery. I'm a real deal power user, I'm in and out of my store and office all day, and being able to full charge my phone in a very short period of time appeals to me in a very tremendous way. Loved the S8 for that feature, and yes it came with the phone.
I hear your argument, and no it didn't stear me away....But yes it would have been nice out of the box. Maybe they will include it with the plus variant next year, I don't know. But with it being the norm now, I'm surprised apple hasn't adapted yet. Also I know people hate this, but maybe they just should have went with USB-C for the X like they did for their new lap tops. Would have, should have, but didn't...it's irrelevant and I guess if anyone wants a fast charger they will have to buy one, but all I'm saying is apple should have at least gave us something that would avoid old school snail paced charging on such an expensive and future pushing smart phone...here unlock your phone with this next level type stuff called Face ID which is lightning quick, but here's a charger we've been including for the last how many years on phones that cost half the price.

Then buy phones from other manufacturer that gives you fast charger.
But just because others do it, does not mean Apple should do the same.
The most oblivious point you are missing, is that Apple would lose a lot of money in profits by including a fast charger. Instead, by selling you a fast charger, Apple gets to make more money, even if the fast charger costs $0.25 to make. If Apple wasn’t in business in making money, they would have sold iPhone X for $500 and included every accessory for free.
This economics 101.
It’s ok to wishfully think about it, but being upset about it is waste of time and energy.
I do...I got an S8
And what your saying is plain ridiculous!
Get out...Apple make money? I thought they wanted to just save the planet?
Next year things will change, I hope they switch from lighting to USB-C and a fast charging brick is included so all the little babies can complain about what they should do with their lightning cables. Plain and simple fast charging is what is happening right now, it's been included with phones from a year ago and ones that are just as high end and even lower priced than the iPhone X. I love apples products, I buy cases, lap tops, earphones, a ton of stuff from them. What you're saying is charge people a crazy high premium for a phone, in the X world of pricing $1000 and up, and include the oldest charger for which they have been including for how many years now? That takes hours to charge your phone? When in essence there is a brand new way of doing this that cuts the time in half! Stop!!!
Apple is all about cutting edge, apple is all about perfecting. Tell me Apple is working on a way to Bring us a brick that is half the size of Samsung's, tell me they are working on something that will charge even faster than the ones on the market now, but don't tell me to not buy the phone if I don't like it, don't tell me the people who use apples products shouldn't be concerned with this. I am! Why are you giving me the same crap you've given me for the same 7 years when charging has evolved in a big way?
Maybe your ok with wired headphones and the same brick and cable we've seen for almost a decade, maybe you don't charge your phone more than once a day, maybe maybe maybe...either way Apple customers should have gotten something that is available at this very moment, and would not cost them as much as people are making it out to be. Pennies in the grand scheme of things. Yes making money is the most important thing, but giving your customers what they should be getting is even more important...just my 2 cents and nothing more.
