That’s pretty moronic of you don’t you think? Their goal is to please everyone, the IPhone X already has a screen size the size of the 8 plus. In my case I can’t use the X it’s way too small in my hands and I love the size of the 8 plus but would love the extra screen size and the newer features. I plan on buying the X plus when it comes out, I wanted the X and I’m very happy that I passed on it because I would’ve hated to have that phone in hand everyday. Anyone with half a brain cell would realize what their aim is and that they are going to achieve it while bringing out 3 phones.

If the iPhone X had the screen size of the iPhobe 8 plus, it wouldn’t feel small in your hand, now would it? Take a lap.

Exactly! The iPhone X screen is actually closer to the iPhone 8 screen size. Just taller. The width is almost the same.
Correct. Its the same size, just a about an inch longer. But here's the "gotcha"... with the dead space at top for the camera cluster, and the dead space at the bottom for the swipe controls in the applications... its actually LESS SPACE than a regular iPhone 8 in a lot of apps. But sheeple see that meaningless diaganol measurement along with the contrived advertising and thing "OH, ITS BIGGER! ITS LIKE AN iPHONE 8 PLUS!"... no... its not even close. That’s why they took away all the dual screen features you get on the bigger iPhone plus models when turned sideways.

Your use of sheapple means I can disregard everything you said, bye bud; talk to yourself.

I think your math needs some work.
