iPhone X vs. iPhone 8 and 8 Plus: Display Sizes, Cameras, Battery Life, Face ID vs. Touch ID

[Pravda]

Are there any mocks up cardboard cut outs of the iPhone X yet?

Trying to compare it to the iPhone 8/7 and see how reachable that display is with one hand.

But, then you end up reducing the effective screen size to something smaller than that of the iPhone 8 Plus - benefit lost. That fact and the removal of the Touch ID sensor helped me decide to go with the iPhone 8 Plus instead. I still haven't gotten over the removal of the headphone jack on my iPhone 7 Plus. The removal of yet another practical feature disappoints me. If I want to look at my phone in the middle of the night without removing it from the charger, I can no longer reach over and unlock it with my fInger; I would have to remove it from the cradle and stare at it. Sounds trivial, but a big deal when you're half asleep.

Sounds like you’re stuck in the past. Get Bluetooth headphones or use the supplied adapter. You can look at your phone in the middle of the night the same way as before so I’m not sure why you think you need to remove it from the charger just to look at it. Your phone can be charged with a charging cable like always. No Touch ID? Then just touch the screen or raise to wake. So simple. You guys are complaining on problems that do not exist, get over it already.

I really want a big screen in a smaller form factor. The X is pretty awesome that way.

I have serious concerns about the practicality of Face ID security in situations where it's needed the most. I think its going to fail very quickly...

100%

Recently I went to a baseball game which cost so much that I wonder how people can afford doing this on the regular bases.

One of many things ha can be done with $200 extra dollars...

1. Buy more beer at a baseball game (and go pee more often)

2. Buy one jersey at the same baseball game and some food...

3. Upgrade to first class seating when going to that baseball game...

4. Donate the money instead of going to said baseball game...

Or...

5. Donate some money AND spend an extra $200 dollars and get a better iPhone to take to the baseball game.

I'm taking the latest option except that I'm not going to another baseball game in a good while. That's how I'm saving money and still enjoy iPhone X for the next two years.

I like your analogy to all the hypocypte who complain about 20%. These same people will pay $2 extra for pepperoni on a $10 cheese pizza $50 times a year. Also go to bar to buy beer that cost 6 times more than at a grocery store. How many smoke a pack a day. Maybe they should try to build their own awesome phone in their garage to get an understanding of how low cost this technical marvel really is.

They’re real problems for us. We’re complaining because they bother us. If you have nothing better to do than to disparage us for what we find frustrating, then you’re an @$$hole. Get lost!

Like I said it isn’t a problem. You’re used to doing things one way and reluctant to accept change. You don’t know what real problems are.
