technology Want to buy the iPhone x?

[Mlppotterwhoovian 381]

It's 1000 dollars in the United States... answer wisely  

[Scrubbed user 3,415]

I have a Note 8, so that would be a no.

[Mlppotterwhoovian 381]

It's okay.. I have an iPhone 5

[Sione 1,108]

Due to how pricey it is, I think no, 1,000$ is not worth paying for a large piece of machinery duplicated as the last one, 

[Catpone Cerberus 23,439]

No, I rather buy second windows PC. Or two more laptops. 

[Jeric 46,836]

No. At this point phone improvements are only incremental conveniences. I am disinterested in spending that much for non game changing tech that isn't a laptop. 

[Babyyoshi309 1,829]

What is sad is that the Iphone 6 is still the best Iphone! 

[KrazyDashie 1,846]

i really don't think 1000 dollars for a phone is worth it.

[Denim&Venöm 16,623]

If I had to get a new phone, it would be a Blackberry Keyone. Tactile keyboard and a very long battery life. Even brand new, it's still worth half the Iphone X.

iPhone isn't even that good to begin with, plus that's the cheaper model, there's a 256 GB version for $1200

I'll stick with my Moto G5 plus. That cost me $230, and has 64GB plus sd card compatibility.

[Crystal Peppermint 1,108]

Well some people use their 1000$ for a iphone and others for a bike,watch, clothes or lose it by gambling.

[Olly 1,008]

I doubt I'll be buying any apple product in the future because tbh they've been nothing but unreliable, inconvenient, confusing, and just generally frustrating. I've had like four different apple products stop working for no apparent reason. which is sad because I used to like apple... most people did. But you're just making your products worse so what gives you the audacity to charge people $1000 for a phone?

If you're rich and don't care about functionality, sure, go for it.

With $1000 I could get rid of this cheap laptop and buy a new computer.

[Envy 6,004]

My iPhone 6 from three and a half years ago is still doing me fine. Not that I have money, but I really don't have any hype for the iPhone X. It's just another iPhone, probably with features that annoy me more than I enjoy. Apple already destroyed their music shuffling feature with iOS 8.4.

I am quite content with my phone so I'm not getting the new iPhone.

Same but I am still curious about other ponies  

[EightBit 284]

Not at all. I'm quite happy with my SE.

[Kyoshi Frost Wolf 40,389]

Hell no. To me, $1,000 for a phone is insanity. That thing should be able to make a pizza for me at that price. Or at least have a pizza maker attachment. Either way, that price is far beyond anything I would pay for a phone.

[Props Valroa 26,149]

No way. Screw that phone. I don't have one nor want one, even if I did its too expensive for a phone and doesn't really offer much for that price. I'd rather save up for the mac pro than pay for that thing.

IF IT DID make pizza... would you pay $1000 for it?

 

As for me, the answer is no. I have never liked iPhones.

[Megas 27,111]

Sure just let me sell my car first

[Steve Piranha 28,909]

I could pay that for a computer instead

Oh yeah, they've never stopped. There have been a few missteps, like the times they've tried to make a tablet and an Iphone clone, but other times they've experimented and broke away from the pack, like with the Passport, the Priv, the Classic (which I still use), and the potential comeback in the recent KeyOne.

My Note 8 kills the X. Sorry, not sorry.

An Apple user's choice is just another Apple device. While I'm pretty devoted to Samsung and glad I never got suckered into an Apple, we on Android have choice. Sometimes it's overwhelming even.

Also this recent tweet by Samsung is just gold:

No SD card, no buy. No stylus, no buy. I've kinda given up the ability to replace the battery, but oh well. The next Note will be even better and I hate some of the other things about my Note 8 (reader placement being another), but it's still a huge upgrade from my previous Note 4. 

And people thought the Note 8 cost a lot on announcement? Then we saw the X cost even more. Yea ok, no. But people on Apple have literally no choice if they do choose to upgrade
