Massively overpriced in Canada. No discount compared to the iPhone 8.

Ya it's weird because the new ipad magic keyboard is 350 USD and in Canada it's 450 even though 350 USD translates to 493 ...
 
Starts at $399.... sounds too low to be true! But we shall see soon enough.

Would you pay more than that for this phone? I find this to be a recycled unappealing phone to be honest. I just purchased an Android phone for US 180 that beats this one in every regard.

I have my iPhone 11 Pro Max for personal use and the Android one for app development/testing.

That's probably more exciting fo most.
Wasn't sold on that piece at all originally. But after using the mouse on and off with my current ipad I had to get the new case. Happy to say I was complete wrong on that particular accessory.
 
iPhone SE with TouchID integrated into the display would have been the strongest selling iPhone ever. But Jobs is gone - so we don‘t get it ....
 
I’m using an iPhone 8 right now because my iPhone SEs all have crappy battery life on iOS 13.

The best thing about iPhone SE is its size. You don’t make an upgraded iPhone 8 and call it an SE when you remove the very thing that makes an SE what it is.

This is reason to look for a small Android phone.

You probably wouldn’t of gotten that under him either. You do realize that jobs wasn’t just about the small displays. He changed his mind very frequently.
In 2004, he said that video on an iPod was stupid and unnecessary. A year later, he introduced the iPod video.
In 2008, he said that e-books were stupid, because no one reads anymore. two years later, iBooks came out

The power of the brand is everything.

The power of Apple as a brand, and the loyalty to it is a factor I think, yes. I think you are also paying for the years of software updates you are guaranteed to get as well.

Yes, but new features are usually tie
How many countries can you walk into a Xiaomi store and get your phone fixed, shop for a phone, try out a phone or exchange your phone ?

I'm saying that Apple can afford to sell ancient hardware at high prices while others are offering current technologies.

I'm not saying you should buy a Xiaomi.

Not with Apples marketing budget. Ya they still make a killing but people like buying from a trusted name. 100% of the money you spend on the phone doesnt go towards the specs.

What are you talking about?
Xiaomi is a trusted name on countries they're in.

Again, what are you talking about? It's a 6 years old design, it's like building a smartphone with a box of scraps. That's exactly what they did!

It's ancient technology.
