It's hard to impress people with iPhones since everyone has an iPhone.

Impress yourself, buy something that actually pushes tech forward rather than waiting for it to get cheap, selling it to you at double price, then restricting features in the name of "art."

The 256gb 7 Plus cost right around 1k.
Idk why people are making such a big deal about the X being the price it is when iPhones have always been overpriced just like everything else with the Apple name on it.

I can't believe the iPhone 8 still has a 720p LCD screen. Websites dock points on budget phone reviews of they're less than 1080p lol.

Facial recognition system that actually works. Powerful processor. OLED screen. And a fairly advanced camera system.

Wait seriously? That's actually like $100-$130 over the current exchange rate. You would literally save money buying it in the US.

The software is still in Beta. The iPhone X is 1.5 months away from being shipped. It'll work when the phone is released.

I know it's fun to see Apple fail every now and then, but all they do is win.

The thing is it wasn't even an issue with the software being in Beta. Whenever an iPhone is restarted you need to actually enter the lock code in the first time you want to unlock it, and from there on the fingerprint censor works. The face recognition obviously works the same way.

Whoever was setting this up forgot to unlock the phone with the code first before the demonstration.

Then why say that it has a facial recognition system that actually works if you've never seen the ready for release product?

How do they always win if they fail every now and then?

I've been using apple products pretty much my whole life but people who are so far up their ass are annoying as hell.


Because it worked the on the backup phone. Beta hardware with beta software is buggy, that's why they have a backup. When it works during release, what are you going to say? "They got lucky?"

If that's annoying to you, that's your problem, not mine.

Well, that proves my point. Facial recognition works. The setup team probably forgot to put in the unlock code.

When it works during release I will say nothing because it's doing what it's supposed to do.

It will be the best phone on the market when it releases.

The new iPhone is a luxury item. People need to stop acting like they're entitled to the newest phones dirt cheap.

All things considered this is a pretty big change for iPhons. The $1,000 price tag shouldn't surprise anyone that's familiar with Apple.

Right, but when you restart an iPhone, it says something about needing to enter int he code after a restart.

That's not what the notification said.

They may have changed the message, who knows.
