CPU doesn’t seem like a major upgrade.
I expect next years iPhone to be epic and will be holding onto my iPhone X till than.
This is a XR upgrade. I’m going to wait until they reveal the XS upgrade before judging.

Personally, I was planning on sticking with my XS unless the XS upgrade (iPhone 11 Pro??) wow’d me.
 
Only $700 is a great price for the phone. I love my Xr so this is a solid upgrade for less (not that I paid that much for my Xr...).

Just going by the article picture, I for one am glad they went with that design (with just two dark camera circles in particular) rather than the huge black box render that was getting thrown around

I'm probably getting one of these! Unless the Pro does something earth shattering to justify what I'm guessing is a huge price jump. Nice colours too, lol. What a nice Xr continuation.
 
Looks nice. Processor team still crushing it. I am a little surprised Apple still cannot do all OLED in 2019. Cheap phones have that now.
I think battery life is one of the main focus’ on the XR, 11 line. The screen is MORE than good enough for 99% of people and oled would just increase costs and reduce battery life

Fell asleep watching and had to turn off after an hour. For those who don’t get all excited for a camera and taking “slofies” these iPhones are so underwhelming. Apple should have taken a year off.
And was disappointed in the Apple Watch. A new model and still a weak battery? Cmon Apple!

Here’s to next year.

I can't find the screen resolution anywhere, is it the same 720p nonsense?

Yeah I got my Xr pretty cheap with a trade in and will trade my Xr in for one of these. The colors look a bit washed out but in the case of yellow, I do think it’s an improvement from the intense yellow I have now.
 
I'm disappointed they added a wide angle zoom instead of a tele zoom. Sort of clever/devious marketing.

Very expensive iPhone coming out for some people. Others it will be a drop in the proverbial bucket. As they say, you only live once. Easy come easy go.
 
As they did not mentiot resolution, i suppose still not full hd - laughable
 
If the second camera was a tele rather than an ultrawide I may have been tempted to upgrade my Xr. It is the only thing I miss from my old iPhone 7+ but I'm not spending iPhone Pro money to get a telephoto camera.
