What has that got to do with anything?

You mentioned a couple of technical reasons why you would drop 1k on a phone.
I pointed out that better technology has been around for a while and doesn't cost a grand.

The non existent queues to buy it this morning said it all

The X is not out.

Plus don't base things on queues outside a shop. Base it on what the company report every three months.

Unless you know my workflow and what I use computing devices for then what you say is meaningless.

^^ This thread isnt about you ..


Some apple fans are soooo defensive its funny


Dont get me wrong, I like my iphone (work one) but all the hype for old tech branded as new , coupled with pocket busting prices is just laughable..


Go on - Ill bite , how do YOU justify the 1k price tag ?
You mentioned a couple of points, which i pointed out have been available on other devices for a while .. So what is it that makes YOU want to drop 1k on this ?

The last sentence, maybe, but the rest is on the button.

I understand why people buy into the Apple infrastructure and would never say that they don't provide for their market and they have a good product. However, it's been a while since they offered any innovation.
If you really want to be a one device user then the Galaxy S8 or Note 8 combined with the Dex station, gives it you all.
All that said. Flagship phones have just gone bananas price wise.
A phone that sells for twice the price of a good computer and sells, probably, ten times (plus) the units, has to be ripping someone off.
I have a Galaxy S8, £779 at launch, I didn't pay retail for it so bought it and sold a Galaxy S6, this brought it into the realms of an OK expense for a phone to last a couple of years.
My Wife has a Moto G4 and rarely finds anything that can't be done. Paying £1000 for an iPhone, quite frankly, is madness.:eek: Especially as in a few months time it will be going for a lot less than that.

The OP asked is anyone getting it and I answered their question and the reason why. i don't know how else to answer the question?

I then replied to your statement as I seen no relationship to what the OP said and what I said.
