i'm starting to think Apple deliberately didn't add 2nd OIS to the tele lens on the 8+,
so camera people will wait for the X. bastards.

As a photographer I would rather have the OIS in the telephoto lens. Wide angle lenses are less vulnerable to handheld camera shakes. Not sure what Apple is thinking.
 
I just returned my 8+ space gray 256 gb to the Apple store. Beautiful phone that was lightning fast, just a year too late. I need to at least try for the X, as I am curious about how good the OLED screen will look. The notch sucks sure, but I am convinced Apple will adjust software as time goes on. At the end of the day even if the 8+ had all the extras that the X has, it still looks like an iPhone 7.

ha, my point exactly..
they knew having this feature on the 8+ will draw people like us to consider the 8+ over the X..
i cannot go for the X because of the screen size limitations so i'm screwed.
