The idea is always simple... get 8 iphones (2/card) on pre-order for day 1, sell 7 to make some money while getting myself a free phone.

announcement is tomorrow!

huge iOS 11 leak
https://9to5mac.com/2017/09/08/ios-1...one-8-details/

phone is supposedly named iPhone X
hexacore A11 (2 big Monsoon cores, 4 little Mistral power-sipping cores)
records 4K60...I might just get a phone gimbal if I can transfer files easily to PC
Face ID instead of Touch ID
USB-C on board would be amazing if true
https://twitter.com/never_released/s...ecrets-leak%2F

status bar will be split into 2
https://9to5mac.com/2017/09/09/heres...ate-the-notch/

people bothered by asymmetry can buy the iP8 or an Android device

not even slightly bothered this won't be shipping until November the earliest...gives time to work on the piggy bank

are there any AirPods alternative that charges via Qi or USB-C? Rumour has it the upcoming Google Pixel is going to remove 3.5mm headphone jack too

The AR demo was cool friends could play classic board games without the cleanup lol. The speakers sensed the distance and adjusted accordingly.

Lighting feature/filter in the photo app essentially kills all those 3rd party photo editing apps.

64GB on the X won't be enough 256GB is too much Apple knows this so they nixed the 128GB option to force the 256GB and higher price tag.

Wish they kept touch ID on the X, on the back of the Apple Logo or one of the side buttons, so to unlock the phone you're gonna have to
take a "selfie" everytime.

Insane prices for the iphone X! That being said, there's probably gonna be people lining up to buy the phone or pre-order them online so they can flip them on CL to some hipsters in the Lower Mainland.

anyone hoping to record 4k60 is not gonna have much breathing room with a 64GB

pretty device but bezel-free is quite the marketing lie

Didnt they do that with previous models also?

I believe for the ipone 6 they did
16
Skipped 32
64
Went to 128

Then offered 32 gb like 2 or 3 years after... im pretty sure that's why Igot the 64 gb iphone 6 lol
