[doublepost=1547595126][/doublepost]I agree it's complete bs with the prices. A company with $500 Billion dollars in the bank could start offering some discounts to those who made them all that cash once in awhile....
Apple is a for profit company;wonder If Apple stockholders would support your suggestion?
 
I was looking at the pictures. I don't think they're blocked, I think it just doesn't show. My bet are the speaker cutouts exist and that the lighting port you see is actually set back from the phone itself and not perfectly aligned with the bottom, I'm guessing this is how they did away with the chin.


I really hope so. It would be nice if they had photos of the bottom. Well, guess I’ll find out Thursday. If the speakers are blocked, I’ll return it. Crossing fingers.

Have ordered one for my iPhone XS Max as my iPhone does not last 1 day, when getting home from work I have to charge the iPhone for a few hours to make it last until I go to bed.
You’re getting your moneys worth then for putting that bad boy to work.

You must be on the phone a lot (whatever your usage cases are). I use the phone the same as my 6s and go home with about 50% battery. But I may pick up one of these to extend the life to 2 days or more between charging.
 
$129 is a rip for effectively a silicone case and battery pack -- no question

But Mophie's are usually $100, so if you want a silicone case ($39) AND a battery pack and to not have to pick and choose, I'm sure many could rationalize it

Was anyone not expecting this price?
Curious. What should Apple have charged?
 
Just one more reason apple is failing , no iPhone X and that same ugly design

Yeah, I'm sure this is going to be the nail in the coffin for Apple. Along with the hundred others people have moaned about for years.

I just looked again as I had the same concern as you and if you look at the last picture online of the case at an angle, it almost looks like there is a darker shadow on the bottom. My guess is that there is a cutout for both the speaker and microphone

Was thinking the same. Thinking and hoping.

And how did people already get shipping confirmations? Still waiting for mine.
