I already know it'll be worth whatever price Apple chooses to charge for it.
What would be your cut-off? If it was like that expensive Apple Watch and it turns out the iPhone X is a limited edition and costs $10,000, would you still buy it?

It's not "a bit less", if the rumours are true it the iPhone 8 will cost a third less than the iPhone X.If you are happy to pay a bit less for a compromised experience, I'm happy for you.

Tbh, I'm having a problem spending 1,000 for a phone that may last 2 years.
The iPhone 7 starts at $649, the iPhone X is rumored to cost around $1000 so it's probably at least $350. That's taking it past the point where it makes any sense to me. At the end of the day it's only a bloody smartphone.So maybe $250 less? Ok that's a considerable difference for many people, but I am certain iPhone X is going to be sufficiently compelling that most people will find a way to get the extra money.
Let's wait and see. I don't think there's any chance I'll need to weigh up the merits of paying $10,000 for this.![]()
Tim Cook says Apple isn't for people like you.Personally, I think Apple should charge £2,500+ for the iPhone X to make the iPhone 'exclusive' again as it once was.
£1.36 per day. And that's not taking into account the cash you'll get when you sell it after two years.
Doesn't sound too bad to me considering how much I use my smartphone.
People spend many thousands on a car which spends the majority of its time sitting on a driveway/in a car park, so £1,000 for a top-of-the-range smartphone seems pretty cheap to me. Personally, I think Apple should charge £2,500+ for the iPhone X to make the iPhone 'exclusive' again as it once was. It should be the Range Rover of smartphones.
Let the masses enjoy the iPhone 8.

Well, thanks for playing along.
For what it's worth, I think my cut off would be £3,000. At least at that price there'd be less orders and you might actually get one this side of xmas.
So will the iPhone 8 but it will be a third cheaper and be almost as good.In my eyes, it's an awesome Super Computer that fits into my pocket and is always with me.

Only Apple fans actually want products to be more expensive just so that they can feel elite for buying them!
You want to feel elite? You could brag to everyone about how much money you've donated to help hurricane victims, or some other charity of your choosing...
Not trying to preach, come on!
the 2016 MBP i bought is junk
why take a chance on an iPhone X

'Compromised experience' for what is still a flagship level phone is an interesting way of putting itIf you want the best, you have to pay for it. If you are happy to pay a bit less for a compromised experience, I'm happy for you.
It is iPhone X for me. I already know it'll be worth whatever price Apple chooses to charge for it.
I respect your opinion but "may" last two years is ridiculous. The A11 is rumored to be a 6 core CPU + who knows what the GPU looks like. The 2500k desktop CPU is still relevant today and we are entering into a 6 core CPU on a mobile device. That is crazy.
Not sure you know anything about Porsche. Boxster/Cayman runs $75k-$85k and are fantastic machines; not junky 911 knockoffs.I'll get the iPhone X or whatever it's called. If you're going to buy a new phone, you might as well spend good money on the real thing instead of a gimped cheaper version. It's like those people who buy a Porsche Boxster or Cayman. They've purposely spent money of something purposely designed to not be very good so it doesn't tread on the toes of the most expensive model.
