Then I’ll take that as a hint to jailbreak my current iPX for true landscape orientationThis post is incredibly active so I don’t know if anyone has mentioned or noticed this already, but the image used on the display appears to be in landscape. Most reports suggest the larger device will support landscape mode, like the current Plus models and iPads do, but that landscape will not be available on the smaller device. Anyone else think the image suggests both versions will support a landscape interface?
Apple fanboys are ultra defensive about the ridiculous iPhone excess/tennis name lol
Sad...
yes but the copper qi coil rumor (also, is have copper wires really a feature?! I mean c'mon!)I know I’m reaching here, but I hope the circle in the invitation refers to touch-ID coming back under the screen, that circle is reminiscent of the steel ring around the home button.
Charred?!!! Did you have actual lightning?what I have had happen: apple lightning cables fail at the rubber strain relief or the internal wires open circuit. As well as getting little charred lighting contacts that eventually stop working
Brand preference and blind fanboyism are not the same thing....What’s sad is people on here being critical of others over their brand preference. This is so tiring and stop with the Apple fanboy ****....like there aren’t Android fanboys, Samsung fanboys, etc....
[doublepost=1535756748][/doublepost]Well, there are many more material options including various composites, but carbon fiber, synthetic crystal and ceramic are three very interesting materials. If Apple made a phone that had a display made of sapphire crystal instead of glass, and the body was ceramic, it would be very, very difficult to scratch. Shatter... now that's a different story.People are living a good life when 90% of the posts in this thread consists of complains about how stupid the naming schemes is in a post about leaked images of the new iPhone models.
When you read through these comments it almost seems like the name of the phone is massively important for most people and some kind of deal-breaker...
Who cares about the name? It's not even displayed on the phone itself, the back only says iPhone... Why take this so personally? Does it even matter in the end? Will it affect your desire to get the phone, will it affect the total amount of sales? Not at all....
What does distinct form factor mean? There’s only so many ways to go with a smartphone which is why they all kind of look similar now. Apple did try colored plastic and people hated it. The tech press hated it because they’ve decided anything not metal isn’t premium. Apple has used aluminum, stainless steel, glass and plastic. What other materials are there to use?
Well I don’t agree with you opinions of iPhones but nothing you suggest would be any sort of radical design change.woukd still look like a flat slab of glass. Because that makes the most sense. No point in reinventing something that doesn’t need to be.
Right - you probably said iPad is a horrible name because it sounds like a feminine hygiene product, back when it was fist introduced.
The OLED display opens a lot of possible features that Samsung has been delivering on for years. An always on clock, new/stock/text message ticker, etc.
The last few years of flagship Samsungs have come in much nicer colors than iPhone, and the finish that samsung has that almost looks like color behind a thin layer of glass is far prettier than Apple's cheap-crap looking rough aluminum finish (or in the case of Jet Black, shiny that looks like the same finish as a dollar store toy).
Revolutionary features like an SD slot and 3.5mm stereo pin would be better. I still don't see any reason to replace an iPhone 6s. imo the iPhone 8 is the same a 6s with a better camera and wireless charging. Of the 3 features, the only one I care about is the headphone jack. I don't see the 2018 models changing the equaltion.
I wonder what compelling feature it will have. I have no reason to updated my X it's awesome.
Brand preference and blind fanboyism are not the same thing....
Why does a phone need to feel fresh? Most people don’t replace every year anyway and those that do probably are probably on installments and would upgrade anyway. I guess I don’t ever look at my phone and think gee I wish it looked fresh.Which I completely agree with you about. It doesn't take a radical new design to innovate new features and keep a phone feeling fresh.
I wish Apple would have figured that out years ago before killing every Mac line.
Seems like change for the sake of change, especially if you’re trading one problem (scratching) for another (easily breakable if dropped).Well, there are many more material options including various composites, but carbon fiber, synthetic crystal and ceramic are three very interesting materials. If Apple made a phone that had a display made of sapphire crystal instead of glass, and the body was ceramic, it would be very, very difficult to scratch. Shatter... now that's a different story.
Looks like the name is official: iPhone Xs
It makes complete sense to continue with the numbering system.
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.
I thought I was hallucinating at first. The bulge. Anyone else?
Apple fanboys are ultra defensive about the ridiculous iPhone excess/tennis name lol
Sad...
Saying that the iPhone excess/tennis name sounds stupid is not trolling. Just because this is an ‘Apple forum’ doesn’t mean everyone has to kiss Apple’s rear end and fawn over them when it is not deserving.
Ps it doesn’t suck to be me because I allow myself to have an opinion
I'd rather eat a brussel sprout than have an iPhone tennis.So lets get this straight...
You hate brussel sprouts and the new iPhone name.
You sure it doesn't suck to be you?
OK OK OK, now I'm trolling you. I'm sorry!
