Live Coverage of Apple's iPhone X Event at Steve Jobs Theater

[_Kiki_]

double camera isn't new, right ?

 

[routine_analyst]

uh... that notch covers up the left side of a video game ... LOL

 

[TroyBoy30]

Have they showed even for a second what that cutout is going to do when the phone is turned sideways?

they did. it stays black obviously

 

[wallysb01]

I don't know what to think about iphone x....kinda gimmicky.

Very much so. We all know Apple's habit of their version 1 really being a beta. This is definitely a version 1 to skip.

 

[zakarhino]

Maybe I'm showing my age, but are emoji's really that important?

Not showing your age. Most people that would pay this much for a phone don't care about animated Emojis, especially considering applications already do that today without the special FaceID tech.

 

[sequential]

maybe I should just try to hold out for next years iPhone. such a terrible looking phone. what were they thinking.

 

[M.PaulCezanne]

very cool tech. kind of just strikes me, though, as not really that useful for anyone but kids with wealthy parents.

 

[Leonard1818]

Hope you all have long arms to get enough distance for depth mode on the front-facing camera

 

[Decimotox]

Hah, he called it iPhone 10.

Because that's what it's called?

 

[CooKieMoNs7eR]

but........why only two colors

 

[DevNull0]

Anyone feel bad for the Shill? He actually looks embarrassed up there being forced to announce this.

 

[yanki01]

October i bet.

 

[fel10]

10.000 $

SOLD.

 

[H2SO4]

$999

I was thinking one unit under the thousand too.

 

[BlueCreek]

ok the battery life is impressive

 

[_Kiki_]

freemium games...

 

[dannyyankou]

That was awkward lol

 

[jimbobb24]

Have they showed even for a second what that cutout is going to do when the phone is turned sideways?

Yes...its going to look terrible. Terrible.

 

[Rob_2811]

Price please. Quick who can guess the price exactly before it's announced?

$999 base model. WSJ went with that and they rarely wrong with these things.

 

[Decimotox]

but........why only two colors

Classy

 

[bobdobalina]

I gotta stop watching these events - or just watch the ones when Macs launch.

...on the other hand, I do enjoy feeling entitled to sacrifice a couple hours of working. It's a tradeoff.

 

[Flow39]

So the Plus iPhones still have better battery life than the X?

 

[jujufreeze]

I expected more interesting showcase of AR, what they showed looked like a freshman college tech-demo, and the MLB bobble-heads would be super distracting in real life situation.

 

[Leonard1818]

No idea what you're talking about. Sorry.

Have you been watching? All of the demo games? All of the moving emoji stuff? c'mon, try to keep up...

 

[pat500000]

2 more hours than ip7? such lame detail! Battery life of 7 varies!!! WTH/

 

[M.PaulCezanne]

still haven't explained why no Apple Qi device, have they?
