People already lining up for iPhone X

[jacg]

Do we classify this as patience or impatience?

I guess there's real money to be made on being the earliest to post un-boxing and tear-down videos.

And drop tests...

And drop tests...

And blending.

Meh.

If people want to be idiots and become voluntarily homeless for a week or more instead of simply ordering online, by all means...

You may not be able to preorder iPhone X online so those people are actually guaranteed to get iPhone X.

Stop it, your really making me consider lining up... early...

Do it. If the stock is really limited I doubt Apple would open up preorder online.
I really wish the rumors are wrong about shortage.

I think most of us will be camping outside our local Apple Stores once we know the date/time of the retail launch.

We will? Maybe if I was 20 years younger, didn't have a job to go to (but independently wealthy as to afford an expensive phone) and didn't have an internet connection so that I could order from the comfort of my home.

Lining up for hours/days to buy a phone is literally one of the dumbest things I've ever heard.

I doubt that the X will even be available in stores on release day. If the supply is constrained as they are making it out to be..... Fools to be lining up what amounts to almost 2 weeks prior to release!

Good luck surviving on the streets for nearly 2 months

 

[rumz]

lmao.

Yeah I want to see the follow up on this story

 

[dojoman]

So how many are still lining up now? lol

 

[PhillyGuy72]

Mind boggling but not shocking. And I won't be shocked if at least ONE person starts lining up at big Apple stores outside NYC, SF stores, other places.

Just pack a suitcase for the change of seasons - umbrella, gear for the nasty NorEaster storms that hit the East coast starting in Oct usually. 80º tomorrow around here, by the time it comes out Nov. 3, they might need to be bundled up in winter jackets for sleeping at night.

And yes...how the heck do these people - obviously without jobs - afford a $1K phone? (Not including tax, Apple Care)

So how many are still lining up now? lol

This is what I want to know.

 

[ricktat]

Those little muugs are gonna have to wait a long time for the X

 

[ForumChick]

Gonna have to wait until October guys!

 

[AppleZombie]

Damn....they are going to need Baby Wipes for showers...

 

[DNichter]

I guess we'll just go home then...

 

[Shadowbech]

I bet those who are in line were expecting to get the iPhone X, only to find that the pre-orders for those don't start till end of October.

 

[Juan007]

It's going to be a while, but I can see some people doing it. That was the only disappointment of the presentation today -- the release date of X is too far away. With everything else they blew expectations out of the water though.

 

[jefffriscotx]

basically it is new York.
Remember there was a Texan in the line saw a robbery, shot the crime ass for good

Didn't get one, Apple store decided to start the line on the other side of the door while he was asleep.
