    What do you guys think about the three new iPhones released a couple of days ago? Is it worth it to spend over 1000 dolllars to get the 10th anniversary iPhone!? Also, are the updates to the 8 really enough to upgrade from a 7...... Input below!!!

    On topic, I think that a smartphone at such a price is just too much. You can get a Samsung Galaxy S7 at the third of the price, which is still a high-end smartphone.

    I totally agree it's too much. $999?!? It might not even include wireless headphones +$200 and apple warranty +$200 also, a case for the phone +$15. So, overall way too much for one device.

    Was excited to see iPhone X actually. It may not be better than competitors, but for the first time in ages it feels like Apple is catching up with the rest of the smartphone industry.

    Honestly it all depends on the success of the ARKit. It has a metric **** ton of potential if the A11 chip is good, but Apple products aren't exactly famous for their performance so we'll have to wait and see.

    $1,000? Is it gold plated? Will it actually survive if I drop it? What makes it worth 1k? Nothing. Apple probably figured people were gonna buy it anyways, so they jacked up the price. It's a ripoff

    The main reasons that I see them as being $1000 is that A) Apple has this new face Id stuff, B) Wireless charging (which Samsung phones have had for 3 years now), and C) they are "futuristic devices" with no home button.
    Besides, Apple products have always been on the more expensive side since the beginning, Apple was the first to make a phone without a keyboard or keypad.

    The Samsung Galaxy S8 uses a Snapdragon 835 processor (produced and designed by Qualcomm), the iPhone X uses an A11 Bionic processor (produced and designed by Apple). Of course these are based on the same technology, but they are as different as an AMD and Intel processor.
