MoneypuckOverlord Posted September 9, 2017 Share Posted September 9, 2017 Ok guys, lets just keep this thread simple, don't want to turn this into apple vs android hate. Anyone getting this or have intentions of getting it? any tips on the best way of obtaining one right away? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brilac Posted September 9, 2017 Share Posted September 9, 2017 I would definitely have to look at the specs and the cost of the iPhone 8, and the benefits. I don't know too much about it, but I am interested in the iPhone. My work phone is an iPhone 6, and I like that Red iPhone at the Apple Store.

If your from Canada as Canadians we are looking at 1200 for entry level probably. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rumor has the naming convention to be: iPhone 8 iPhone 8 Plus iPhone X (edited: latest rumour now has it as X) I probably will pass on this model. My iPhone 6 is still going strong...and plus the Canadian price will be ridiculous... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocksterh8 Posted September 9, 2017 Share Posted September 9, 2017 Still using my iphone 5, not a scratch on it and works like a charm. No need buying new when your old still works. It's good for your pocketbook and the environment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GLASSJAW Posted September 9, 2017 Share Posted September 9, 2017 apparently Samsung jacked the prices of the OLED panels up or something, which is why these models are projected to cost so much. but they won't be that bad if you're under contract i don't think? i'll definitely consider grabbing the X/Edition if it's good, but i'm not in any rush if its not. 6s is still good for me. i'm semi-curious about what they're doing with the rumoured 4K Apple TV. definitely interested in any news about the new OS as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghostsof1915 Posted September 9, 2017 Share Posted September 9, 2017 I just got my iPhone 7 with 128 gigs. I was still using a iPhone 4s. My 4s was just good basically to get email/text/phone. They didn't even support the old iOS haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did try an android phone (LG G4) and was a die-hard apple user before that and I really like them both. I may go back to the iPhone 8 though depending on the features but its going to have to really take a signifiant leap to justify the $$. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But as mentioned above, what is wrong with people having iPhone 5 or 6, or whatever. I don't get the rush to go out and buy a new phone every time it comes out. It's like a disease. I don't get spending hundreds of dollars for a device that texts and makes calls, and a 1/4 inch larger screen and some extra storage that most people aren't even close to consuming on their current phone. Isn't just about every other feature available on your desktop computer which cost a decent bill to begin with? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My iPhone 6 is still going strong...and plus the Canadian price will be ridiculous... FIFY. Good move on the "stick with what works". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm actually still really happy with the G4 i'm using now, and it would take a real leap in tech to get me to cough up $1,200 for a new iPhone. I just wonder what Apple has left to innovate now thats really going to get them to stand out? I really like the camera on the G4 which was better at the time than the iPhone but that may have changed again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tre Mac Posted September 11, 2017 Share Posted September 11, 2017 As told in the joke thread: How do you milk sheep? Release another Iphone Anyways I still rock a S3 with a cracked screen and a headphone jack that no longer works. But the longer I hang on to it the more value I get out of that 3 year contract I signed ages ago(at least that's what I keep telling myself). I heard a disgruntled employee is leaking all the tidbits for this new Iphone, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
