I've been using my iPhone SE for the past 3 years and it's time for an upgrade.
I'm eyeing the iPhone XS (5.8). But I'm wondering if it will be discontinued the same way the X was?
I wasn't paying attention at the time, but was the X removed immediately after the XS announcement, or could it still be bought on Apple's site for a couple days/weeks?
I'm weighing the risk of ordering the current XS now (because I don't want/need the 2019 3 camera bump), or waiting to see if it will still be orderable from Apple after the Sept 10th announcement, perhaps with a $100 price drop?
I don't know how likely it will be that Apple keeps the current XS alongside the so-called "2019 Pro/iPhone 11" model, since they are going to be more similar than different. Plus, it seems the next XR will inherit some key current XS features (4x4 MIMO)...making even less reason for Apple to keep the current XS around once the 2019s are announced.
And no, I don't want to wait for the magical 2020 unicorn model.
