Hey, Apple is telling you what you want and need so stop being an outlier. Stick to the program. Leave individuality to us Android/PC users.
Who offers some SE-like phone?

Like my X. Would have liked to see the X Plus last year as I downsized from my 7 Plus.
But really a Series 4 and some updated MBPs are what my radar is scanning for.
I’m good waiting another upgrade cycle on the X.
But... but... the other guys said all models would be OLED..... Even the iPhone Poverty Edition would get all the same stuff the high-end did....
Makes sense. The 6.1" is targeted at the huge swath of iPhone 6 and 6 Plus owners. The 6.1" keeps the single rear camera and implements software 3D Touch.
Many iPhone 6 and 6 Plus owners see no compelling reason to upgrade to iPhone 7 or 8. iPhone X was too expensive.
It doesn't cannibalize the iPhone X too much and gives what most consumers want: large display and a new form factor.
Yeah big laugh for you rich white kids caring about ****.Yay. Means more high end models available for me!
iPhone Poverty Edition was way funny tho....
TBH I don't see a whole lot of difference from my old LG g5 that used LCD to my wife's Oled V30, other than brightness. I use my Galaxy s9 plus on FHD instead WQHD anyway. My old eyes can't tell but my battery life sure can.I'd gladly buy the iPhone PE (Poverty Edition) if it's that cheap LCD model w/o 3D Touch. As long as it has FaceID, ergonomics like the X, and sturdy build quality?
I don't need 4gb RAM, dual cameras, 3D Touch, an OLED screen, etc to get a good experience. Not worth the extra $
Only reason why I think I would go LCD model over 2017 X on clearance is the Band 71 LTE possibly for T-Mobile.
Why not? My iPhone does everything I want it to really good and really fast.RE: "... to ensure customers have an affordable option to choose from. "
Affordable is a RELATIVE term ... any Sept 2018 iPhone priced in the $600-$700 USD range is still OUT of reach for most !
Even here in La Jolla, right next to UCSD, I'd say "affordable" means less than $500 USD.
Apple doesn't have real competition for it's iPhones, but is competing with itself.
Unless / until they start to offer compelling new Features & Capabilities, Users won't be upgrading to anything new.
If it's just FaceID & Animojis in Sept, AAPL is sunk !
Ask yourself, "what was the last Hardware OR Software addition that really impressed you ?" ... for me, it was the register-rich A7 processor in the 5s ... "that addition" was responsible for 50% or so of the success of the iPhone 6 family one year later ... FaceID & Animojis don't cut it !

It’s already been proven that the x has a smaller screen compared to the plus. Not to mention a smaller battery, so yeah it is downsizing.Put your X over the 7 plus, and the screen is nearly identical not sure how that's downsizing unless you prefer unnecessary bulk.
I liked the wider keyboard. Didn’t feel as cramped. Width of X is closer to non Plus (screen dimensions only).Put your X over the 7 plus, and the screen is nearly identical not sure how that's downsizing unless you prefer unnecessary bulk.
No 3D Touch no sale for me.
Hoping they get rid of it I forget it’s even there
Well, most android phones are phablets as well. So not much individuality there either.Hey, Apple is telling you what you want and need so stop being an outlier. Stick to the program. Leave individuality to us Android/PC users.
Um, Apple has iOS? And save the iOS 11 is a disaster and no different than Android. There are plenty of advantages to iOS, Apple support, security, and iOS 11.4 is frankly great now.Why does apple have to make the only 900$+ OLED. Other oems have made 600-700 with the technology. It is not that expensive.
