TopicHonestly, I really don't see what market Apple is aiming for with the iPhone XR

$749 is firmly in the flagship phone segment. Most people in the market for a true flagship phone (Galaxy S+, Note, Pixel, etc) are less price sensitive. We're not talking about people who buy OnePlus or Huawei.

Where things become really stupid is just how shitty the XR's screen resolution is for a $750 phone. 1792828 is worse than most $200-or-less phones. The Galaxy S4 had a 1080p display in 2013.

It seems deliberately gimped for seemingly no reason other than to make the iPhone XS's price seem less crazy (or rather, worth the "upcharge").

It's like how fast food places deliberately make Medium drinks like 10 cents less than Large drinks, just to make the Large seem superficially like a better deal than it really is.
