I guess we are all considers tipsters. They have been doing this exact rollout style for years.
Really don’t think we need tipsters in this day and age. Same pattern with dates every year. Predictable Apple
I’m still using a perfectly good launch day iPhone X. It will take a lot to get me to upgrade.
Maybe its because I got an XR as an upgrade from my 6S+ a few months ago, but I'm just not excited by what rumors I've seen. I'm not looking to upgrade but I will be disheartened if at the end of the keynote I'm not pleasantly surprised by some aspect of the presentation.
Stinks, I know. I feel the same way this time. I'll watch the keynote as usual...but I do not plan on upgrading no matter what this new phone can do, that the XS Max can't. Only excited for the new OS (Watch OS, iPadOS) MacOS as well...but that upgrade will wait as usual - need to wait a few weeks to see if any bad bugs pop up.For the first time ever, we're a week or so out.. and I don't even care or think about the new iPhone.
Pre-order as usual will be 3am EAST COAST time (12am WEST COAST) Sept 13thWhat time would the preorder be on the East coast.
Apple should reduce the bezels first . I checked the Note 10 , it looks really great, compared to my iPhone XS
30 min longerCheers for the tipster ! Hope the "11" will stay on battery longer than Xs![]()
I'd like to see two sets of both front and rear cameras working in tandem to produce a 360° 3D VR video and photos.I'm waiting for the rumored 7 camera system with VR-UltraReality /3D, laser focus, AR enhanced live reality, 8K video in iPhone XII MAX Pro Plus
(ok, I have no idea what I'm talking about)
BUT..I do expect the 11S, 12 rumors to start up by Sept 25-30??

Is there a compelling reason to upgrade your hardware for the sake of iOS 13? I haven’t seen much on iOS 13 they looks like a reason I’d want to purchase a new phoneI disagree. It's not exciting for those who want something new every year, but I've still got an iPhone 6, which will not be supported on iOS 13, so I need to upgrade now. If they skipped the S updates, those who hold out until they need a new phone might get stuck paying full price for a year+ old phone instead of having an option for a cheaper price on the non-S model or the better processor (even if mostly similar in features) in the newer version.
This is not an S year, but if it was, I'd be stuck paying $750 or $1,000 for old tech or settling for an 8. (I'd be happy to buy a discounted X if they still sold them)
Not to get political - but I think they will go with numbers this time. "11"Question is, will it be the iphone XI or 11? The iPhone XIR or 11R? I mean, do you really want a phone that people will pronounce as the iPhone "Zir"
Not far off. I planned to sit this one out until I cracked the screen on my X recently. I wanted to hold off to see if next year they go usb-c. Oh well. I’m typically a two year refresher, so I guess it won’t kill my to get an 11 and wait for a 13We’ve reached peak smart phone for all manufacturers. The only reason to upgrade is depleted consumables.
What are you even talking about? Priority is first come first serve, Apple Card or not.Purchasers using Apple Card will have Priority---------
It is not the SAME iphone-----
Hard to say. If you have an X or newer, probably not. I’m using 13.1 now on my X, and aside from the screen being just a bit too touch sensitive, it works fine. I find that the slightest press beyond simple contact opens context menus or tries to give me a quick view of a web link. A little annoying, but I suspect by the time 13.1 actually rolls out it’ll be well sorted.Is there a compelling reason to upgrade your hardware for the sake of iOS 13?

See I’m the opposite, it doesn’t take me much at all lol. (I think) I’ve had every model since the 3GS. But this is getting increasingly difficult to justify. The 11 is looking to be entirely too close to not only the XS but also the X for me to consider upgrading this year, and the one “major” rumoured feature is the biggest eye sore in iPhone history.
Almost feel as though it may be worth scrapping the S models for the sake of a yearly release, and just put everything into a new model every two years. These incremental updates are getting smaller and smaller.
