I would be fine with that, but it seems weird to deliver your premium product a couple months after your standard product every year. I just don't want the new model to be out and be unable to get it or have to pay off the difference when it was Apple's fault it was delayed.
Again anything is possible. Apple hasn’t removed a feature they’ve already had one year only to put it back the next. I think it would also be pretty disruptive to have people using Touch ID for five years, takenit one year, and add it back the next.
if you want to be so literal:You do realise this site literally has the word "rumours" in the title?
No I wouldn't be pissed off; I wouldn't buy it. Apple isn't under any obligation to appease me. They put out a product, me, you, and everyone else has the choice to buy it or not. Seems pretty simple to me.
That's a bad tactic because they started out with the 7 and 7 Plus, along with the 6 and 6s being refined. The 7 plus was the flagship model and consumer accessible. Taking that away from consumers is a bit of a letdown, shortening demand (for obvious reasons I understand, but they could've waited a year and refined it if they were that constrained). I understand no ones stopping me from buying one, however I shouldn't have to refresh 90 times and go through site errors and sites going down to get a phone that won't ship for 3 months after getting in 5 minutes late, let alone the poor people who wait in line. It's ridiculous.
The main phone they're releasing this year, the 7s (perhaps they'll shake up the naming), will, indeed be released right on time, to fit in with past practice. The "iPhone Edition" (aka "8") will ship when it ships. Many folks seem to be missing the distinction between the new main phone and the new premium phone. It's a different thing they're starting, having a separate premium model, and the existing rules don't apply. But the new revision of the standard model, the 7s, will be right on time, just like clockwork.
I have a suspicion that Apple has seriously misjudged the market on this one. I can't imagine why anyone that thinks the iPhone 8 is too expensive would buy an only marginally cheaper 7S, instead of looking for the most savings on a discounted 7. I don't think the market for the 7S is going to be as big as Apple thinks it will be.
The new features that'll be on the 8 or "x" edition that won't be on the 7S. The + models generally are the higher tier models and most likely won't have oled, the better camera according to rumors and people here.
Seems they have forgotten since the Note 8 has broke preorder records....Thanks
