Mehhhh, I guess I can agree with you
Maybe this extra £150-200 is worth the new features, but what if next years iPhone will get £1200 because of integrated Touchb ID?
Unfortunately we will end up paying $1800 in the next 4-5 years...
As student it's not always easy to save and spent ~£1500 on Apple product every year. Apple just out-marketed me with their new 15' MacBook Pro, so I was forced to get the 13'. I don't like to be out-marketed for the iPhone(my favorite Apple product)
I get that, there does come a point where it gets ridiculously expensive and I think even Apple know that, I have a feeling that this year they are releasing the 3 iPhones because they know not everyone can afford or want to spend that kind of money on an iPhone, next year it may be different the 8 May end up replacing the Plus version and being a little cheaper.
At the moment the whole Touch ID thing is up in the air, some are saying it's in the display and Apple have figured it out that's why production is starting later because it's taken longer for them to figure out, while others have said it's been removed in favour of the facial recognition system.
