iPhone X: Boring

[janeauburn]

I'm seeing many objectionable things about the X in the Apple demonstration. This phone will get a big "no thanks" from me.

That black tab at top: yuck. Face ID looks slow.

Easy to pass on this one. I sense problems galore.

I am waiting for battery life. If it has more battery, that would be a major selling point.

 

[rgarjr]

wonder how much they're going to want for it.

Totally agree

Boring?

This unveiling tops even the original iPhone announcement. iPhone X is just incredible in every way - beauty, features, experience, security and fun, fun, fun.

2 more hours than the 7

Hope a lot more people feel like you, so my pre order goes smoothly.

Battery life improvement over 7 (not 7 plus). Underwhelming.

Went into this certain I would be ordering an X but this keynote actually has me considering an 8 :/

The claim is 2 hours more than iPhone 7.

Apple made a similar claim that iPhone 7 has 2 hours more than 6S.

Yes!!! Boring!!!

So underwhelming.

 

[mnsportsgeek]

So much for the 180 degree sensor. Lame. Not sure I want to buy this. Might just get a new battery for my iPhone 6.

So underwhelming.

If you think that wait another 2 years to be really underwhelmed. These phones will continue to get harder and harder to impress people.

No. There is no beauty.

I have no appreciation for the camera bump. Sorry.

And the face I'd failed to work live how embarrassing

iPhone X looks to be a product for early adopters. Redesigned hardware, but not really anything special when it comes to features over the 8, or even the 7. And with hardware changes, we should not be surprised if issues arise as there were with earlier iPhones (plastic cracking, screens with different tint, antenna-gate, bend-gate etc). Next iPhone X will be the one to hold out for.

Good news is I get to keep my existing phone, no "upgrade" desire.

Yeah, let 'em get the kinks worked out--and get rid of the distracting top notch.

 

[fathergll]

Hmm another $300 and doesn't ship until November 2.

So X has larger display, OLED, less bezel and Face ID. Whats the dimensions on the phone itself compared to the 8 and 8 plus?

 

[JPack]

The leaks really took the wind out of this launch.

Absolutely nothing new.

Even Ming-Chi Kuo got the delayed ramp info spot on.

 

[Starfyre]

I like how Tim says "We *think* your going to love it".

 

[clangers23]

It has the feel of Apple finally catching up technology wise with the rest of the industry.

 

[AE14]

no pre orders until 10/27? Wow...didnt know it would be that long. Might jump to the 8 plus as I still like touch id

Totally agree. Still love my 6 Plus.

 

[AppleZombie]

Pretty much. Watch Series 3 was the Star of the show. I might keep my 6 or just get a 7 plus for a good discount.
