When I picked up my 8 plus in early December, I told myself it was just temporary until I could get my hands on an X Plus. I’m honestly so happy with my phone that I’d be shocked if I don’t keep it for the next few years. I came from the galaxy s8+, so I have seen what a nicely calibrated oled screen looks like. It’s cool, but I don’t watch long videos on my phone or do any VR, so it’s really not a must have feature for me.

The X Plus will allegedly be a 6.5” slim bezel phone. Nice, but I used a note 8 for a while, so I’ve already experienced the form factor for the most part. Don’t get me wrong I would trade my 8 plus for an x plus straight up, but I’m not going to pay hundreds of dollars more to get a bigger and higher resolution screen. The speed differences and camera improvements will most likely be minor compared to the huge bump in resolution. The x Plus will be the best iPhone ever made for big phone lovers, but it lacks any must have features that I’m waiting for. Hopefully what I want is ready by 2020 or 2021.

I'm interested in the sense that I'm intrigued to see what phones they release and what the new features/designs will be.

However, based on rumors so far, I don't think I'm actually interested in getting any of the new rumored models and will probably stick with my X. I'm also not as excited as I have been in years past for the upcoming announcement. So for those reasons, I voted "no".

I think partially that’s because tech (Hardware included) is so good and it’s becoming redundant where others are not excited as they used to be, because we have reached a certain peak with new “Features”, aside from Face ID. And I think the rising cost of smart phones are making consumers think twice before they decide if they want to upgrade annually.

1/ I think apple has something special that make people will buy new iphone 2018 >> just like every S version , ( 1 Things cool )

2/ Iphone is monthly payment 20-30$ per month now , so people can buy and less concern about big bill

3/ New Color = strong weapon apple always used on new model

To me ,,, iphone is highest level now ,love what i have .....

Don't expect a new iPhone at WWDC, other than maybe an SE with minor spec improvements (though even that is unlikely). I am looking forward to the iPhone X Plus later this year, though.

Looking forward to the new iPhone in September that will debut at a lower cost than the X did last year. Thus dropping the price of the X and making it a great buy in a few months. Phones will sell like hot cakes this year. Make sure you’ve got Apple stock loaded up soon, and get ready to sell late in 2018.

Since the X was billed as "the iPhone of the future", everything eventually will need to catch up to it. No more radical changes I suspect for iPhone for several more years.

I'm just one of those who don't always need the latest and the greatest. Sticking with my iPhone 7 as long as it continues to work for me and is acceptably speedy enough for what I need it to do, I will continue to hang onto it.

I’m on the fence this year. I don’t need a new phone. My 7 still works just fine. Just gonna have to wait till September and see how I feel then but I have a feeling I will take a new one home this year.

Almost unbelievable recycle/trade in offers available in these modern times.

Existing iPad Pro 10.5 64gb -1year into 2 year contract-3rd party recycle offer-cost to me £91 if I wanted to either upgrade ipad or switch provider.
IPhone 8 2 months into 24 month contract -3rd party recycle offer-cost to me $166 if I wanted to either upgrade iPhone 8 or switch provider.

The point I'm trying to make is, choice of products are becoming readily made available even if I have recently made a purchase -Tech heaven.
Let's hope it continues until 2nd gen SE

Gumtree, a girl bought it didn't like it went back to her S8.

I find this interesting.....did she explain why she chose to sell her 2-day old phone at half price rather than return it for a full refund?

You can’t in Australia if bought from a retailer once opened, only from Apple.
