A phone these days is pretty much a necessity. Coffee is not.
Yes Tim but can you drink an iPhone X?
Tim Cook said:"We're not trying to charge the highest price we could get or anything like that. We're just trying to price it for what we're delivering."
Augmented Reality. Haven't you been paying attention. You need that massively powerful new phone so you can take fake photos of the coffee you can't afford because you're paying off the phone.But really you need both. How can you post a picture of your coffee on Instagram without the phone?
It's crazy to still be using a 6s
If they are underpricing their products, they are shortchanging shareholders. If it’s part of long-term strategy, that’s fine. But they’re a business, not a charity.No they do not.

Wife spends $75 a month at Starbucks.
Damn. He’s right.
Time to yell at the wife.
Financing a phone for as long as a car is insane IMHO, even if it's interest-free. You're almost immediately upside down on the loan from the moment you send your first text message, and then of course the obvious: the upgrade cycle is still much shorter. So the argument of it being just a cup of coffee a day holds no water... much less coffee.

If you need 5 or 6 years to pay off your car loan, you certainly shouldn't be spending $1000+ on a phone.He said 30 months, typical car loans are 5 or 6 years.
Lol no. This is pure ignorance. Even a consumer level desktop class Coffee Lake i5 is easily over 10 times faster than an A11. And don't even get me started on discrete graphics.It is not just a phone.
Unless you are the only person in the world who bought an iPhone to make phone calls and nothing else?
The latest and greatest iPhones are super computers. They outperform most Intel PC's now. It is incredible.
The iPhone 7 plus has a much lower resolution inferior LCD screen.I went and saw the new iPhone X, it wasn't that exciting, and I kinda miss the home button. Plus the screen real estate is technically smaller than the 7 Plus and no additional storage over my 256GB 7 Plus. I guess this is $1150 I'll save and use for other things...
Well you are one of the few still using old fashioned computers. For most people now, their only computer is their iPhone. Or they have have an iPad too.
But yes, if you are happy doing most of your stuff from a laptop or desktop - and you are mainly using your iPhone as a phone - then I concede you don't need to upgrade. But you are an outlier.
