I've highlighted the operative phrase from my post to make it easier for you to understand ...
Either you ignore the meaning of "slightly" or if you want to talk in hyperbole don't act surprised when you get corrected.

I was at my computer last night for the iPhone 8 prepped and ready 15 minutes before they went live. I know now that I lost a lot of sleep for no reason. I do this every year and am always ready to go right away, I don't wait. Had to wait a few weeks back when the iPhone 5 came out because I decided to order at 7am here on the East Coast, and I haven't made that mistake since.Where did you come up win June? That's a bit exaggerated. If you preorder and do so promptly, your chances will be greater of receiving it much earlier. Your definition of a failed launch doesn't equate to everyone else's experience who will receive their iPhone earlier based on preparation. What you're saying is more of self biased generalization.
I think I read that the Apple OLED panel differs in significant ways that slows manufacturing plus Apple is exceedingly particular about quality control. I know I know -- we've all seen iPhones with flaws. There could also be other manufacturing issues with other components. They're not known for using many off-the-shelf parts.From claimed sales numbers, the galaxy range of phones is mopping up around 500K units per day, so I reckon Samsung can afford to let Apple have their 10K units per day without much problem....

A mixture of can't make enough of them, and rushing them out the door as a consequence, will bode well for QC.
It doesn’t seem like the iPhone 8 stood a chance against the X. Most people rent/lease their phones under their carriers so the $1000 price point definitely won’t deter anyone from getting the better option.
You have compared the X to the 7, he was comparing the X with the 8
Maybe so but I bought an 8+ today anyway, tried an true technology.Did you forget the massively superior OLED display with a much higher resolution? The previous phones are dinosaur technology compared to the iPhone X.
Err...no they don't!Which both the 7 and 8 have almost identical features aside from some of Things I listed.
Yeah just not sure I can deal with the larger size of the 8+ so we'll see.Whoohoo! Enjoy! Gotta say I *love* my Series 2. I suspect you'll be very pleased with the 8+ for a few years (save yourself the cash for something else, eh?).
I am waiting for the iPhone X Plus
Err...no they don't!
In fact the majority of your list is not in the 7
I get it, exactly the same but different?
I hope this doesn't come off as trollish, it's just a question, but does MacRumors have some sort of connection/relationship with Ming-Chi Kuo/KGI?
There you go! =)
You’re not going to put a case on it?!Silver will be my choice. Primarily because the space gray will likely show more scratches and the silver has a more unique look this year, almost like an off-white color. Looks unique to me.
Oh Jeez, so that's what happened to Blush Gold. It got vaporized!I think I read that the Apple OLED panel differs in significant ways that slows manufacturing plus Apple is exceedingly particular about quality control.

I just saw this too --
Remember how the finish on the Jet Black slowed everything down to a crawl? Yeah, that is this year's Jet Black.
I dunno, I don't buy this one. Something tells me those who want one will get it.
Everything Apple makes sells out and is in short supply after release. Every Mac, Apple TV and watch. Just wait for Home Pod. It will be the same.
I'm not convinced the iPhone X will be such a huge success as previous phones. I mean, what does it offer over the 8? Face Recognition - that's about it. Is that worth another $300?
No, that's not about it. It also offers:
Augemented reality
A11 Bionic chip
Tru-Tone display
OLED/HDR display
Wireless charging
Glass backing
Portrait Mode lighting
Upgraded Camera with Dual OIS
Stainless steel
Better battery (Two hours added over iPhone 7)
What something is worth is only valued by what the consumer appreciates. So that's completely variable.
iPhone 8 has no notch - it's better already! The notch on the iPhone X is enough to deter me, before I've even looked at the price.
Jony Ive --Oh Jeez, so that's what happened to Blush Gold. It got vaporized!I couldn't understand how a planned color could run into so much trouble and just disappear when Ming Chi Kuo first warned the Blush Gold was in trouble. I had posted that Samsung churns out all sorts of different colors of glass phones with matching metal frames, so what was the big deal?
Ah, Apple...being meticulous again, over something we are going to cover in bumpers and cases and skins or scratch all to hell anyway. But I appreciate that. It's going to be gorgeous when it's released. If it's ever released. And the silver and black will be, too.
