Isn't the Note 8 already $900+? Regarding the iPhone X, if the $999 price freaks you out, consider the 8/8 Plus which are just as powerful with a lower price tag.

Doesn't everyone absorb the price into their monthly contract nowadays?

The days of subsidized pricing with $200-$300 flagship phones are over.

Nowadays, you buy the phone outright (which is what I do), or work up a monthly fee/plan with your carrier.

Only suckers do. Anyone with any financial sense buys their phone outright and goes with an unlimited prepaid plan.

That's not that much, just save some money for a month or so.

It's negligible at best to most people. Instead of paying $28/month, you have to pay $40.

To many people, $12/month extra is not much when you put it that way. People don't really think about the total 24 month cost.

And then soon enough, they start having BOGO deals, so then you get 2 for the same price. Note 8 already has had BOGOs since launch.

More importantly, how is this even useful? The fingerprint scanner is just as fast, and a passcode takes about a half a second longer to unlock. Or you could just not lock your phone because no one probably wants to get into your phone anyways, you loser.

It's a solution looking for a problem, and an expensive solution at that.

Doesn't make them any less suckers for doing so.

Note 8 and iPhone X have heralded the era of $1K phones.

Only reason I got a Note 8 is because it was $500 for people who had a Note 7.
