1. It won't have Face ID.
Right but you're not carrying a around a Pro iPhone and a Pro iPad. You're carrying around severely compromised versions of both, for no other reason than to carry both.
All your personal opinion to which you are entitled to.
Supply chains worldwide have been disrupted by all of the on again off again tariff verbiage spewed out of Washington DC, so some product delays are certainly likely.
You don't. You're supposed to want your phone to unfold into an iPad. But the truth is that the only way to get there today is with a worse iPhone and a worse iPad than you already have. For more money than you paid for the better ones.
A better example would be the ability to carry around an iPhone Pro and an iPad Mini in one device.
This is not opinion. This is based entirely on the reliable leaks that we have seen. If you want to pretend that those are not accurate, go ahead.
Well, it is mostly that the so called "leakers" were wrong in their schedules...
It's neither an iPhone Pro nor an iPad mini. Have you not read any of the information available?
Thanks for the laugh... there is no such thing as "reliable" leaks, but whatever works for you.
Yeah that...could not possibly be more false.
Not true [hypothetically because we have not seen one], but someone who uses a small tablet like an iPad mini for image review and markup, reading or whatever might find that a ffablet means that a single device in one's pants pocket works well, actually replacing two devices.
There's a big difference in "leaking" when it comes to products that are a few months vs a year plus out, but as I said, whatever works for you
I’m not sure if Apple is going to shut down the entire business but their share of selling the services is growing rapidly. So maybe we will just get more expensive and more ordinary hardware by then?
I said it would be a better example, I never said it was going to actually be either of those devices. We don't know what it will be at this point. We are over a year away from the rumored launch and with Apple's track record of late, I am sure it will be pushed out beyond the second half of next year.
Wrong. there was not some huge market 10 years ago that Apple missed. More likely is that there has been a slowly developing market that Apple is about to enter with 10-years-newer tech.
A better question might be "Do I find value add in having an iPad mini in my pocket?"
Oh my. AAPL was at ~130 1/23 and is at ~212 today, a 63% increase. Sorry for your lost potential two years of AAPL gains, since you "have sold off my AAPL in chunks over the past 2 years."
Well Samsung is proving that wrong with the price they have set with the Fold and Flip 7. Some people do pay full price direct from Samsung or Apple but I would say most people are buying on payment plans with Verizon, t-mobile, etc. So they don't look at the 1999 price tag, they are looking at Free over 3 years or $33.99 per month, etc.
I never looked at it that way so that is a good point.
