Got the iphone xs max and I fukking love this phone. Came from the 5s and this is just heaven to deal with. If its to expensive or not inovating enough then keep it moving.

I dont care for android phones just like i dont care for windows pcs anymore after i got an imac.
i have the XS max and its the most satisfied ive ever been with a phone despite it being overpriced.

I agree

All your really buying is what a better battery, or better camera

I won’t make an upgrade until 5g networks and a 5g phone
My Note 5 USB port went so I used it as an excuse to get an S8+

Real talk there is very little difference in performance :francis: Should have just got the Note 5 fixed :snoop: Only big difference is the Youtube pop out window. I don't even know if 5G will be worth it unless data rates get that much cheaper.

You don’t notice that app opening .004 seconds faster and crisper call connections
And that extra megapixel when you take a selfie :troll:

I remember back in the day there were big jumps from the first iPhone to the iPhone 3G to the iPhone 4 then 5 after the 6 it’s been eh

Not much they can do :manny:

I remember when I got my Note, I was like 1440p screen :gladbron: That shyt looks exactly the same as 1080p but just runs the battery down faster. And the camera records 4K.... but where can you watch it :dwillhuh:

Funny thing is camera makers are in the same spot... blew all their gains early to compete, now people stopped buying. Computers probably too. I'd hate to be in the hardware business right now :sadcam:

Not even that people aren’t buying new iPhones, it’s that it’s no need to buy a new one every year. I don’t see people jumping ship for other brands and operating systems.

They’re just like me, I’d rock out with my iPhone for another year or two.

They need to fire Tim Cook. I remember that Apple didn’t release a new phone every damn year.

He has no vision or direction, just trying to keep Apple on cruise control.

Apple has always released a new iPhone every year with one year being a major upgrade and one year being an internals upgrade and an “S” designation. The problem they have is that since every phone gets OS updates for about 4 years, it gets harder and harder for the average person to justify upgrading. Where as with the average Android phone, you not gonna get even one year update...the version of Android it shipped with is the one it’s gonna have on it when you sell it for $20.00.

People like you hold Apple to some impossible standards, in the past 10 years they have basically changed everyday computing into a mobile experience with the most popular phone, most popular tablet, most popular smart watch, and people are like “well they fell off because they haven’t changed any other industries” in the last 4 years smh.

What you don’t see is that Apple is about to get rid of the phone and make computing completely wearable. You gonna have a personal assistant in Siri, a Watch, and glasses with AR. They about to change the game all over again but you don’t know enough about them to see what they are up to.

I remember back in high school (2000 or so :flabbynsick: ) I had a computer with a 2GB HDD

I thought I was doing it.... "I can record a whole album on this :jawalrus:"

Hardware business is absolutely insane.
