I'm just stating the reality of the situation

no money conscious, OS-agnostic person is buying an iPhone X. It's for iOS diehards and people who dont care how much their gadgets cost. A Note 8 being $70 less or $150 less or even $100 more is irrelevant to the people who are going to buy the X.


Even the Note 8 is overpriced.

A fair comparison is the S8, which is the same size with similar capabilities. And the S8 is virtually half the price.

Honestly the iPhone X looks almost exactly like an S8 or LG G6, and is the same size as well. Unless Apple contracted God himself to make their OLED screen, Samsung's will be better. The only major difference between the two phones will be the X being twice the price without expandable storage or a headphone jack. It's a fucking terrible deal.

After turning on the phone the first time you have to enter the code in. Then facial ID works. Same way touch ID worked. Facial ID worked several times after that. Intern forgot to enter the code in. RIP intern

Did you forget that many other phone companies manufacture Apple screens, including Samsung?

And in terms of screen quality/accuracy the iPhones have scored well in the past even without OLED, you're just being salty about the resolution

And the headphone jack thing is such a non-issue at this point; it comes with an adapter and Lighting EarPods, and only poor people and audiophiles listen to music on non-Bluetooth headphones anyway.

Literally everything lol

8 is just the 7 with a glass back for wireless charging, so disappointed

X has face ID instead of Touch ID, even better specs, all screen design, and an OLED Retina Display

You don't have to be poor or an audiophile snob to prefer using a wired headset you can plug into other devices.

Of course you don't.

However that's exactly why they include an adapter with a DAC and why they considered taking it out to begin with; it wasn't as much of an essential feature as the benefits that were added.
