There’s a lot of stockholders on here. I seriously doubt the sales are doing as astoundingly well as past years. The 8 just doesn’t appeal.
Got a tip for us?

I still can't figure out how to order the LTE model of the watch from Germany and let it ship to the Czech Republic; can anyone please help on that? We won't have LTE model for maybe 4-5 months however I want ceramic back and more storage already - and be ready when it comes. Tried official store, can't select the Czech Republic. Thanks!
Lmao are you serious. How was my post indicative of being a slave to Apple products. I'm using the 8 Plus and RETURNING IT FOR A FULL REFUND when the X releases.

It doesn't kill anything. Thanks though!
Thanks.
Thanks. Last year I was forced to pay full price for my wife att iPhone 7 plus 128gb mode and they didn't offer a sim unlock model. And we all know the att model is intel modem and not universal compatible with cdma carriers
Model citizen. I do admire that you even brag about it.
From what I'm hearing demand is easily exceeding expectations, by a lot!!!
And we've still got the main event to come next month.

Lool I’m patiently waiting for the X just like I am with Destiny 2 on the PC not double dipping on nothing Lool
Patience is key. They’re both around the same time period too lool

I know right, Ive seen quite a few posts of people saying they are getting both or getting the 8 until the x comes out. This forum either has a lot of moneybags or Apple will be getting a lot of returns for the 8 as people just buy it to have soehting new and then return it once the x is about to come out...
Basically, that everyone is waiting for the X and that it will be a madhouse in a month and a half.
Right! I will be happy with my X while watching the preorder madness for the X. I might stay up that night just to see what happens when that time rolls around.
Tmobile models are still available for pickup on launch day for my nearest Apple Store. Definitely the first time since I've been buying iPhones where I could wake up at a normal time and still preorder a new iPhone for launch day.
Pretty concerning... because it means a lot more people will be going for the X!

A lot of people would be pissed if they announced the X after millions bought the 8
You can't do that. Apple deliver only to the home country of whichever country's store you are using. If you know anyone in Germany, you can get it delivered to their address and get it sent over to you.
I'm a member of Apple's iPhone Upgrade Program and I can still order any iPhone 8 (Verizon) and pick it up or have it delivered on launch day. Looks like they have allocated more to iPhone upgrade program customers. This is a huge fix from last year.
Apple knows this and it’s part of there scam
It’s quite brilliant in a disgusting kind of way
I was considering the X model but I only need 128
I already have the 7 plus but in Canada they want 1529 plus tax comes to 1750ish
Besides they disabled landscape mode for this model so those that liked using a keyboard or landscape mode on a desk while working on the laptop won’t work any more
The X looks pretty but too many trade offs
apples decisions saved me a lot of money
The 7plus will satisfy for a long time until something better comes out
Like a real 8 plus all screen model
No doubt...
I was completely underwhelmed by the 8. I have a 7 Plus and there is no real reason to upgrade. If the X didn't exist, I would be tempted to upgrade to the 8 just because of the novelty (and because I'm on an upgrade plan, so might as well).
Either pre-orders for the 8 are low, or they were able to produce a lot of stock ahead of time. Would have been pretty easy, considering the 8 looks exactly the same as the 7.....
iPhone X pre-orders will be a mad house.
Good luck with your Samsung in a few months when it starts to lag. If it already doesn't (try swiping to the bixby screen) good luck waiting for the next big os update (maybe in april, 9 months after release). good luck with all the double services you can't delete from your phone.
You got a big mouth for a guy supporting a company that just copies everything apple does. Because in the end, you are just using a copy of the iPhone. A list of things samsung tried to copy from apple: 3GS design, app icon design, UI animations, s-voice, samsung wallet, fingerprint sensor, gold color, pink color, continuum, the way samsung stores look,...
Btw, calling apple users iSheep while almost all android users have the same phone you have is a little laughable. Sounds to mee you are a Ssheep. And over priced, maybe, but at least we will get a good price over a year when we upgrade. The value of your S8 will be a lot less.
I was overwhelmed at the $600 phone prices and now it's just over the top. I barely touch the power or capacity in the 6s currently and really cannot fathom putting money into any of these devices.
Don't we all use the same phone pretty much? Each OS has their advantages. Sometimes I wonder if we hit the peak of ground breaking features that applies to a large swath of mobile users. Texting still seems to be the peak use, if gauged by the number of people who walk into things on the sidewalk while doing so.

Most definitely. It's a very good phone. I was simply saying I cannot see any reason to spend money on a new device when the 6s fulfills my requirements.
It's just a shame. I've been using iPhones since they came out, but this price point is too much for me to buy one.
I hear you. I was ready to click on the 64 GB option, but then I saw the difference in AT&T monthly payment between the 256 and 64 is $5. Unless my wife goes crazy with horse videos she'll never fill that space. 128 would be fine. Still, for 5 extra clams a month, we'll live with the empty space :-/
