I’ve been around here longer than you have, lol. At the time that one was still kinda sketchy and people were doubting it for a while. Only reason I was thinking today was a big deal was because there were crystal clear leaks involving multiple product lines. The rumors during the iPhone story were that there were also photos of an Apple Watch and some videos. The Apple Watch one came true so I also combined what we had seen with potential demo videos. I haven’t seen them yet so maybe they don’t exist, but that’s what I was basing my comment on. If that had been the case then it was almost like the keynote itself leaked, which would have been a pretty big deal.You weren’t around in 2010 I take it.
Yes, clicking a virtual connect button once a day is much more of a nuisance than untangling and carrying a cable with you everywhere you go - all the time you might want music.No. Bluetooth sucks and is a nuisance.
Ok? I don't need/want to have to juggle transferring to another phone for a few months before I am able to upgrade.Well you should have sold earlier, I sold my 256 X with no apple care + 2 weeks ago for 870 so there is still good resale values. You just need to sell earlier.
Yeah my moms phone (she lives with us after her heart attack) is a 6s. We had her battery swapped for free about a year ago. Her phone is still solid. Granted she's not a power user but she does do a ton of social media and video watching especially on car rides (she and my four year old are silent, it's great lol).My girlfriend still has her 6S in good physical shape. We just went to the Apple Store to get her battery replaced for free under the 'random shutdown affecting a small number of iPhones' of which the offer was good for 3 years from purchase, and next month would hit the 3 year mark. She waited basically last minute, but will now have a newer feeling phone. She's happy and has no urgency to upgrade.
Meanwhile, I sold my 6S last year to get the iPhone 8. It was $300 less than the iPhone X, I thought I'd miss Touch ID, and whatever other justifications I had. I planned to just keep it for 2-3+ years. Here we are a year later, and kicking myself for that. I do have OLED envy, just how much nicer and functional no bezel is, and wanting the dual camera system. If I still had the 6s, easy decision to upgrade this year. Now it's a much more difficult decision to eat the cost of an iPhone 8 one-year rental.
Agreed. The gold looks stunning. I wonder what it'll look like in person though, whether its more yellow than copper? I'd much prefer a yellow gold.Wow! How does this happen?! Either way, that gold stainless steel looks gorgeous. Count me in for a gold iPhone XS and Series 4.
Who’s working on getting that wallpaper for all of us to use?
OMG those new phones look just like the old phones!!!
ZOMG Apples is the best!
'XS' = Excess. Which I would interpret as the phone will cost a lot more $$$$$
Crazy leak.
Terrible name - iPhone XS. Supposed to be pronounced “ten ess” but will inevitably be pronounced “ecs ess” and eventually just sound like ‘excess’.
Maybe that’s what they want with that solid gold look?

you realize it's TEN right? X means 10. It's the iPhone 10s. Just like the 6s, 5s and 4s before it.
