So we can watch them flaunt the iPhone XI for the low-low price of $1,500 with a slightly bigger screen? Rumors point to a lower cost phone with a bigger screen than the current 5.8" iPhone X, meaning sub 1k. This model might compromise in comparison to their more premium options with a less impressive screen & camera. The follow up to the 5.8" dimension iPhone X is rumored to be priced somewhere around $100-200 cheaper than last generation. We'll see. --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

I don't really trust just plugging in how many situps I've done or whatever to calculate burn accurately so I don't even bother with it when tracking my intake. Dunno if it's worth it though. --- ...
