dat iPhone SE 2. want.

Curved.de has more mockups:

View attachment 755261

Honestly, this thing looks perpetually futuristic—like, remember in 2006 when Apple was believed to be making a touchscreen iPod that become the iPhone? Remember reduced-bezel mockups from 2014? Here they are.

If that notch wasn't there, I'd call that a beautiful thing.

X2? Not likely. More like XI.

Good point. If the iPhone X is pronounced "ten", then X2 would be pronounced "ten-two".

XI makes more sense.

They’ll get their sales when they drop that price. It’s high for US costumers and you can imagine how insane it is for the rest of the world where salaries are 1/3 of Americans or lower.


Wait what? The rest of the world has lower min wage then the Yanks?
USA Min fed wage for a tipped employee is $2.13 (usd) and non tip is $7.25

rest of the world clearly doesn't include where I have lived...
Canada $15 ($11.60 usd)
Australia $17.70 ($13.65)
New Zealand $15.25 ($11.03)
France 9.88E ($12.17 usd)

the worst I worked in was Tokyo where the min wage was
Japan 932 yen ($8.97)

So when you say the rest of the world do you mean fellow third world countries similar to the horrid condition in America...like Russia?
 
Lots of baby hands on this forum, apparently. lol.

Yea, no. The X is unwieldy. Heck, even the 6/7/8 (or 6/6SS/6SSS, if you prefer) form factor is not optimal for single hand use (otherwise we wouldn't have reachability).

Even Marques Brownlee with his NBA-sized hands cannot comfortably reach the top right corner to activate the control centre on the X.

My bet that they will only release iPhone X Plus this year or it will be iPhone X1 and X1 Plus.
 
I'm in Apple upgrade program I do not care about resale issues anymore..

I want the X Plus already and a new iPad Pro...

The most overlooked option on the X is the fact to be able to clear all notifications at once...

Shut up an take my $$$
 
That iPhone 5 / X merge is crazy sexy. And this is coming from an android user. I really like the design / form factor, hope there's something to this.

"Lower than expected"???

But Tim Cook said that they were the best selling ever! Another Tim Cook lie, just like with no FM antennas in iPhones.

Truth be told, the iPhone 7 and 6s sales helped make them the best selling ever! :D

Time Cook said the X has been the #1 selling iPhone model. The only person lying here is you, trying to twist what someone said.

And what do FM antennas have to do with this article? Oh right, nothing. Just another lame attempt to try and bash Apple by bringing up something completely irrelevant.
 
They could call the smallest one iPhone SEx

Sex sells.

And if they made a phone in that size and were able to put the double cameras on it for portrait mode, I'd be ALL ABOUT IT.
 
I'm sure they'll be nice but essentially they are the same phone as the X, very minor changes this year. I'll take a massive software change before I buy further apple hardware. Going to be a while, unless WWDC has some goodies.
 
I think the price for iPhones/phones are getting too high for (me) to upgrade every year. It’s not like they have exciting new stuff that I can’t live with out. Still in my 7+ and I have had every iPhone since launch.
My next phone will be even more expensive, but at least it will have a few possible game changing features like 4V view without glasses. The only thing I fear and dread is that it will run on Android. This summer will be exciting.
RED Hydrogen 1......
 
As gorgeous as that SE looks, Apple are too stubborn to return to an old design. They have been a "design for the sake of it" company for a good few years now and despite numerous mistakes proving this point over the last few years like the notch, removing the headphone jack, soldered memory/SSDs etc their reputation as "innovators" is too important to them to ever admit they were wrong.

I don’t understand another SE or the desire? Maybe just for size? Cause I should would rather buy a discounted iPhone X or 8 plus next year if I wanted to save some money.

Size. Why is that so hard to understand? I live in the US and I don't know a single person who bought an SE because of price. Post millennials who can afford a TV to watch Netflix (not that we have time to watch it anyway because we are busy working, kid's practices, sleeping, etc.), a Macbook Pro for proper computer work, and need a phone to make calls and text. That, and as a functioning adult, the idea of walking around with what is basically an iPad mini attached to the side of my head is utterly ridiculous, but to each their own...
 
If they are successful, I'm buying AAPL on the dips over the summer. Would be a great holiday quarter.
 
Okay so we are supposed to call the iPhone X the "ten" right? (not 'eks'). So is the iPhone X2 the "iPhone ten-two" ? What happens in 2020 when there is the iPhone "ten-four" ? Won't that confuse our CB radio friends?

I've been pretty good about reminding myself to pronounce "iPhone X" as "iPhone Ten". But if they go with "iPhone X2" then I'm calling it "iPhone Eks-Two" even if that's not correct. Saying "iPhone Ten-Two" sounds so stupid.

Reading the caption for the picture in the article--iPhone X2? What is this? Final Fantasy?

Was thinking more Mega Man X2.
