Would you rather Apple delay the iPhone 8 or launch it with select features disabled at first?[Poll]

It looks like a nice phone, but I cannot tell you anything about the battery as I don't own one.

I also haven't looked at it in depth yet as what Apple does in regards to the new iPhone will determine which way I go.

That said, I have no binding loyalty to Apple. I use the products of theirs I like and that's it. I'm not bound to their ecosystem and neither are the other users in my house. The only service I use is iMessage and that's easily replaceable with SMS.

Facetime is nice every once in a while but I usually just call my wife if I need to talk to her.

My newest Mac is a 2006 MBP which is limited to Snow Leopard only so no iPhone I own can sync to it, except maybe my 4s and 5 which I don't sync anyway.

So, again, really not bound to Apple.

Understood, mistaken the fact that you already owned a H P10+. Thanks for sharing it! That gave to me, probably a good direction where should i be this fall!

They've had 3 f**king years to get this right hence we had to put up with the 6ss last year! This is rubbish if true and simply not good enough.

If you are talking about hardware features like putting TouchID under the glass on the front, inductive charging capabilities (hardware), etc -->delay release until all is ready.

If you mean software updates or accessories (inductive charging puck, etc.), then I don't mind waiting.

Can't mean hardware features because how would they be added after release?

That said, I have no problem with some features being released later. If users can still enjoy say 90% of the phone's features in the meantime, why not have that instead of nothing at all? Many people may not even care about the extra features. For instance, if it's getting wireless charging right, I don't really care about that anyway.

No sense in getting worked up over rumours and speculation.

Which would you prefer?

Good poll - With my motivations as a customer rather than a shareholder, I'd rather they delay until it is fully kitted out with their 1st choice design and features.

Not looking likely though . . .

PS - to those saying they "don't care" if you don't care, you don't vote, it's quite simple. You don't need to each tell us individually that you're not bothered.
