Seriously. The Apple Card isn't the first metal credit card. I've got two in my wallet right now.

Liking the Kardashians is 1 thing. Being obsessed with them and thinking they’re historical / inspirational figures is a whole other thing.
Different strokes for different folks.
Or maybe the radiused corners! It’s actually quite heavy, I think people might be surprised at first.I predicted 16g a few weeks ago. I forgot to account for the etched out bits.

People are just obsessed with hating Apple. Idk what it is. A site like MacRumors would be nice if it was filled with people who actually like Apple. It’s ok to criticize and critique, but man... These comments are painful. You would think Tim Cook flipped these dudes worlds upside down.
I would hate to live my life looking at the negative in literally everything. Sucks.
I have the top offenders on ignore, it makes things much more pleasant here. Unfortunately, the ignore list seems to be limited to around 600 entries
Anybody else think this white credit card is going to look terrible and dirty after only a relatively short amount of time?
Really? Did you really think this through?
Apple won’t be on the hook at the end of the day if a card holder defaults—it will be the financial institution. And if Apple wants this to be a status symbol as sorts, there won’t be a huge pool that will at least initially get this card. Maybe later, maybe not.
The LMAO isn’t necessary, dude. One can speculate without the hyperbole.
What on earth are you talking about?
Oh for gods sake. People are interested, if you’re not then jog on and don’t click and comment.
Could be; maybe the same people who never wipe off their iPhone or clean their Airpods either.
Hygiene is just not some people’s biggest strength. Makes for some rather uncomfortable conversations for the HR dept. occasionally

This site may be called Macrumours, but Apple sells a lot more than just Macs these days, you know.
Goldman will likely use well-known underwriting standards to keep their bad debts at the desired level, i.e. not too high but not too low, either. Apple won’t be involved with setting those guidelines.
Also, this card isn’t meant to be any more exclusive or upscale than iPhone, and Apple certainly wants it in as many hands as possible. Limits will depend on credit score, income and very likely, the limits on your other credit cards. Maybe other factors too, it’s way too soon to know.

Yes I thought it through. An “impeccable” credit score implies that it has to be perfect in order to get this card. It’s just simply not true. If that was the case then very few people could get it....
The iPhone is a status symbol, but it’s still easily accessible. Even someone with amazing credit can default on their card. It can happen regardless if someone has a 600 score or an 800 score.
If people are getting approved for $1K limits they either have very little credit history or a not so “impeccable” credit report.

People are dis-gus-ting.
Those details are available on your phone but yes if you’re phone’s dead then you’re out of options
There are a lot of people that like Apple but negatively critique it. That’s great you are an optimist, but there is always room for cynics and pessimists. If it weren’t for the latter, things wouldn’t be improving as well. We need them all for balance.
If this forum was only of positive Apple lovers, it’d die pretty quick.
I don’t know why I laughed so hard on this..

Why are you so worried on the thing you don’t intend to use?
[doublepost=1561178327][/doublepost]
Who cares?

LMAO
(No doubt getting your information from Android forums?)

True, but the overwhelming majority of posts on MR seem to be negative. Yes I’m an optimist and am generally positive, but I critique when necessary. There’s a lot of negative comments on here that are laughable.
It would be nice if there was a balance, but it really leans heavily to 1 side.
This is innovation to Apple now. Blank metal squares, and $1,000 stands.
Tim Cook needs to go, yesterday!
So is this basically a credit card? So if I wanted to buy the Apple Watch SS I can use this card and pay off monthly for example?
Lmao. I’m going to laugh so hard when I see someone using this. Especially those who think they are better by having a heavy and shiny credit card. Lols on lols apple.
