Speaking of price hike has anybody noticed the $50 price hike on iPad Pro 10.5 256gb? When the Apple Store came back online after the presentation the price was changed Of that model. I have tried to notify macrumors and through Facebook but nobody has posted anything yet. Look at Best Buy or any retailer to see what the old price was 749.
With the introduction of the iPhone 8, iPhone 8 Plus, and iPhone X, Apple has lowered its prices on previous iPhone models, introducing a new iPhone lineup that offers devices at a range of different price points.
The 4-inch iPhone SE continues to be Apple's most affordable iPhone, but it has a new lower price point. Pricing on the iPhone SE starts at $349 for the 32GB version and goes up to $449 for the 128GB version. With carrier financing, prices start at $14.55 per month.
The iPhone 6s and the iPhone 6s Plus are the middle-tier devices, available in 32 and 128GB capacities. Pricing on the iPhone 6s starts at $449 ($18.71/month with carrier financing), while pricing on the iPhone 6s Plus starts at $549 ($22.88/month with carrier financing).
Apple is continuing to offer the iPhone 7 and the iPhone 7 Plus, also in 32 and 128GB capacities. Pricing on the iPhone 7 starts at $549 ($22.80/month with carrier financing) and pricing on the iPhone 7 Plus starts at $669 ($27.88/month with carrier financing).
Apple's new iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus are available in 64 and 256GB capacities. The iPhone 8 is priced at $699 for the 64GB model and $849 for the 256GB model. With the iPhone Upgrade Program, prices start at $34.50 per month.
The iPhone 8 Plus is priced at $799 for the 64GB model and $949 for the 256GB model. With the iPhone Upgrade Program, prices start at $39.50 per month.
The iPhone X is the new flagship high-end iPhone, available in 64 and 256GB capacities. The 64GB iPhone X is priced at $999, or $49.91 per month with the iPhone Upgrade Program, while the 256GB model is priced at $1,149 or $56.16 per month with the iPhone Upgrade Program.
The iPhone 8 and the iPhone 8 Plus will be available for pre-order on Friday, September 15, with the devices launching on September 22. The iPhone X will be available for pre-order on October 27 ahead of a November 3 launch.

At some point, it could be possible to add wireless external storage, keyboard, and a monitor. Wa la...you could have an iPhone /Mac Mini combined in one : )
This lineup doesn't make sè sè. Jobs wouldn't like it at all.
You used to buy an iPhone and that was it, it was the same for everybody. The X has nothing to do with a SE. The x is the only one that should be called iPhone. The old ones in the lineup should be called Apple Classic or something like that.

Yup they snuck that right in there. I'm surprised more people aren't upset about it.
Hike on what, the 7/7+? They hiked iPad Pro $50 as well. Something about storage shortages.
Sorry Apple, I make damn good money but I'm out. Your greediness has come around to bite you. Will use my 7 until it dies....Over and out.
Polished Stainless Steel frame?! Not touching iPhone X for sure. Learning from iPod classic and Stainless Steel Apple Watch, polished stainless steel is a scratch magnet. Even putting on a case will scratch it. Another design failure from our dear Sir Ive. Apple should use ceramic like the Apple Watch Edition with iPhone X.
I think the 8 is the flagship and X is an experimental model for FaceID beta testers.
Even with Steve, we had three iPhone models, the only difference is that we now have the Plus models. IMO they need to get rid of the Gold/Rose Gold Colors, keep one storage size (preferably the 128GB) so each model only has one price point and it won't be as confusing.
What is worse, I believe the distracted driver also killed a two of a family of four on the sidewalk before ploughing into an electric post.
Well, in iPhone's defence, it has a hell of a lot more tech packed into it than the Air.
I share your feeling though. I could afford x no proble, but it's the principle. I'm very pro-consumer. I'm all about looking out for consumers' best interest...at least I try to.
I was looking forward to upgrading from my iPhone 6 this year but with a price like $1,829 in Australia I can't justify it. There is nothing the iPhone X has over the iPhone 6 worth laying down $1,829 cash.

“Apple Must…”: A Brief History of People Instructing the Company to Do Things

Why? It would create converts who’d then buy Macs instead of Windows PCs.
What Apple did: Less than two years after Cortland’s directive that Apple should enter the smartphone market with something called the iPhone, the company followed it.
Aftermath: The iPhone did indeed help sell Macs. More important, it outsold them, and became Apple’s most important product."
I wrote that, my forum name was Cortland. Do I deserve this note in history?
Regards to you, I love the iPhone (back then I loved the Treo, but I thought Apple would do it the best, and it did)

Because 20 years ago Steve Jobs came back and pared down product lines in a much different situation so now in 2017 that obviously means that options are bad. No one is really sure why this is true but it's Apple lore so you have to just accept it.
Damn right,
FACE ID is sexy but impractical. How does it fare under poor lighting, or with your glasses on?
Exactly!!!

It works just the same if you saw the keynote
Different storage sizes makes absolute sense. People make the mistake of thinking that because 256GB is what they need, how could anyone possibly get by with only 64GB? What's the point? There's a huge percentage of the market who don't need a lot of storage, so why pay extra for something you'll never use? In fact, ditching the 128GB option is one of the worst things that Apple announced today. Options are good.
I sure would be if they were all replaced with 8 tracks for no reason.
You are probably right, but I gotta tell you, when I posted that I got not one person agreeing with me, they were all against the idea in the forum.
yeah what happens if you wear contacts during the day,
then at night, take them out and wear glasses around the house for TV, book reading, or surfing?
Some people either need one or the other to see. "Honey, I can't unlock my phone!" "Turn it around, stupid!"
How do you program FID for the different you's, does it have a "Home," "Work" face option?
Sure use your 4 or 6 digit code, but that's not as convenient as good old Touch ID.

Wow even Apple Care got a lot more expensive. 1550€ for the 256GB Version is just too much. Especially greedy now that the Euro is stronger again. Don't get me wrong: I like the phone and the idea of having the screen of the Plus and the size of the non-plus version, but it's not worth over 300€ to me.
