The processor, battery life, photos...

you laugh, you mock, but it's hard to claim any moral victory when you know they will still make incredible profit on it
tornadosandwich
You could say the same about the PlayStation one joystick controller and the ps3 one.
joon9498
I'd rather save up for the iphone X

An apple product is like a diamond ring. There are superior alternatives, but you buy it anyway because it tells people you can afford to.
thedissident
Apple isn't even trying to hide the fact that they're ripping everyone off with these "new" releases. For $1000 it better give me a blowjob.

How come when a new android phone comes out, I don't see a bunch of Apple users shitting on it?
JuiceSpringsteen8
You can't shit on a superior product when your chosen brand just copies them 6 months down the track every time. You look silly.
StringVariable
I guess because nobody cares so much about it as Apple. Also there's the assumption people will blindly buy the new iPhone immediately.
TrueKingCheech
because android tries to be innovative, and then apple just steals what works

How to milk a sheep...

Patrick is definitely an android user

I'll tell you the difference: battery. The battery is sealed in the phone. That's what is "new" about the phone. Yeah they upgrade
RedIronCrown
Tough to do water resistance with a replaceable battery.
NoCreativity3
My galaxy s5 is water resistant. The back removes. I bought a $25 64 gb SD card and replaced the battery. I also am using it in the shower 1
NoCreativity3
Where I regularly drop it. I don't have a case on my phone. There's one crack where I smashed it on concrete when drunk. It's a shame that 2
NoCreativity3
It seems the newer phones all lose the features that make this phone great. :(
MerkNowitzki41
Features here and there. Redesign components. Make the cam better, improve the efficiency etc. The phones are great and would be better
MerkNowitzki41
If we could swap the batteries out. But no. This is planned obsolescence. The batteries are ever good for about a year. Lithium ion
MerkNowitzki41
Batteries suffer from a phenomenon called aging. They're supposed to go bad and Apple knows that. You say to yourself, damn my phone doesn't
MerkNowitzki41
Hold a charge anymore! Oh, well behold. Apple has just come out with a new phone! Perfect. It's an annual loop. So predictable and
MerkNowitzki41
Transparent. Yet we have thousands of dipshits that will stand in line for hours to buy the new one. I have both iPhone and Android. I much
MrWobblyHead
Why did they call the special edition the X? That to me makes it look like it's the iPhone 10.
idontneednostinkingpuffin
IPhone.... 6, 7, X, 9, X2, X2+1....
tablecat
Well uh... They ARE calling it the iPhone 10. Prob bc of 10th anniversary. Also because 7 8 9.
LemmiwinksKingofGerbils
I... okay. +1
poonhoundjr
10th anniversary and avoiding the confusion of calling it 10
sailorlnz
If you watch the announcement the X is pronounced 10 so the iphone X is the iphone 10 just with a fancy letter instead of a number
MrWobblyHead
Are they skipping 9 like Microsoft did with Windows?
oxide454
Well they skipped 2 so why not
GrayFish
I go on Twitter and it's just people loving iPhone, atleast imgur doesn't have it's head up it's ass
jaggedcow
You follow the wrong people if you hate everyone on your timeline
Zumaakk
Yea, our heads aren't up our asses, they're up androids asses!
AvielMenter
Imgur's anti-apple circle-jerk is at least as mindless as post-keynote apple hype.

PC MASTER RACCEDREDE FUCK XBOX FUCK PS4. I could go on
EmotionallyTransparent
I work at an airport info booth. The amount of technologically clueless people that come to me for help with their iPhones is staggering.
EmotionallyTransparent
When I ask them why they got an iPhone they just tell me they heard it was the best phone. So I turn off data on all their social media apps

Is there any way you can also stop them breeding?
jackharvest
Dat iPhone X though...
wheresthebaby
I'll prob make the jump from the 7 to the 10 next year. I like iPhones.
BerwynBrewyn
You mean the phone that copies Samsung and LG but looks worse and costs more? Dat notch...
SavageRancor
you mean s8
DoctorFromTheDarkestAlley
I may get downvotes but YEEEEEESSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Can't fucking wait!
MrAgrijag
No to mention they blatantly lie about the features. It's not edge to edge by any definition, top to bottom or side to side
JonestownClassPresident
I was looking at it on my S8+ and cracked up. Those edges are huge in comparison to what I already have.
MrAgrijag
It's a note 8 without the stylus
ObsidianChef
Dat waste of money tho.
BluePineapple64
I need it in my life. In unrelated news, anyone need a couple of my room mate’s kidneys?
BerwynBrewyn
Just get an LG V30.
BluePineapple64
Just get an iPhone
BerwynBrewyn
Why? The V30, or the S8, is the same phone or better at a 30-40% discount. And no ugly notch. And a headphone jack.
JuiceSpringsteen8
Why? They're just copying Samsung and other manufacturers at this point. They are still a year or 2 behind on most features.
BluePineapple64
They do a much better job with their features, usually. Touch ID is far better than Samsung’s thumbprint reader. Face ID appears to work /1
fe1od1or
It's an S8/S7 minus the headphone jack, and with animated emojis. I really don't see what warrants the price?
caramelballoffur
How can you be so blind. NO HOME BUTTON AND IT IS THE FIRST PHONE WITH WIRELESS CHARGING, the pure image of innovation
caramelballoffur
That was sarcasm by the way. A classmate legit said it was the first tactile phone ever with wireless charging...
fe1od1or
My condolences..
franco15
Dat $1000 price tag tho
wheresthebaby
That's for the 64gb. Might as well go for the 256gb for an extra $150
BerwynBrewyn
And dat ugly notch.
BlackBullMountsWhiteGirl
It's only a couple hundred more than the previous ones, I don't have a job and I can afford it wtf
BlackBullMountsWhiteGirl
You fucks need to get better jobs
JonestownClassPresident
If you don't have a job you cannot afford it. You can maybe afford a flip phone.
Stupidpeoplearestpid
Is that becuase you are still living out of the bank of mum and dad or just use unemployment checks?
nohabloespanol
You are by far the dumbest prick I've ever ca me across. Good day sir!
doctormellow
I make 50g a year, I'm not paying an extra 400$ from,my LG g6 for a prettier phone. As a programmer I have a mac for iOS work, I don't need
BlackBullMountsWhiteGirl
50k as a software developer LMAO wtf you live in West Virginia or something
doctormellow
Entry level out of college with a marketing degree, you get what you can for the right learning experience. Been there 90 days
doctormellow
A phone that expensive
johnnyratbastard
I like apple stuff, but when one of the selling points of the iPhone x is animated emoji, we should just start dismantling society.
anerkul31415
Skype has animated emojis tho
ShouldersDeepInAHorse
The Emoji movie but every Emoji is replaced with an Iphone X animated one.
NotSoIndependentGamer
Animojis... I remember those books...
fedthepoopy
It is literally the shit in that episode of Black Mirror... it's terrifying
Varenvel
It's my fav episode. Soldier one is tho one who scared me the most , like wow man...
KitRamsey
Episode? I want to check it out without adding to my list of tv shows to watch. It's getting out of hand
Varenvel
Watch it all its second best sci fi I watched for years , tho maybe don't start with episode 1 first as it's heavy and very odd

They're trying to take the leg work out of sending gifs. Everybody grab a weapon they're coming for imgur next!

MUCH faster CPU, better camera, wireless charging, better water resistance, new glassback. I mean, not huge difference difference, but still
Xerxes8169
Faster CPU justifies "planned obsolescence" of earlier models
tablecat
As long as all their phones receive updates for 5 years, I'm not complaining ... Are you actually complaining about faster hardware?
Xerxes8169
If used as an excuse to justify crap performance of previous models that worked fine six months earlier then yes. Yes I am.
EmberFiretail
It still only had 3 gigs of ram while flagship android devices are already on 4 and 6.
tablecat
The 7 Plus with 3GB RAM still multitasks better than any Android flagship with 6GB. It's about optimization.
EmberFiretail
And why does it cost more then? if it's only software optimizing ram use? why the 150 dollar price raise?
Halsaster
So android?
oxfordsorbrogues
Android isn't hardware
Halsaster
But it does support all of the above offered
Mirawatts
I fucking hate the glass backs on phones. I understand they're for wireless charging, but they break so easy.
tablecat
This one should be fairly solid... But I also think glassbacks are really uncomfortable and slippery :/
GentryMarine
Wait like all the features Samsung had 2 phones ago?? Woah
tablecat
The CPU of the S6 was not that powerful. I mean, not even the CPU of Note 8 is that powerful.
GentryMarine
You sir are hugely wrong hahaha. The note 8 has the most powerful processor of any phone and 6gigs of ram. IPhone x. Half that much
tablecat
Dude. A11 is almost twice as powerful as Note 8. Look up geekbench scores.
GentryMarine
Wanna go ahead and paste those links. They have nothing on the A11 chip or the note 8.
EmberFiretail
It has 4 gigs of ram, six in the EU, iPhone still....including the new one....only has 3.
tablecat
Right, but seeing as iOS is good at managing background apps, it utilizes ram MUCH better than Android does.
EmberFiretail
So why not include more? this is a 1000+ dollar phone, why still bottle neck on 3 gigs of ram...it's so you are forced to buy the next one
Comingin2014
So, things that most other phones already have?
caramelballoffur
No, this is going for $1000 for the cheapest model. It is clearly Superior to those petty peasant phones you talk about /s
WhatisaYute
The 8 is $699 and $799 US. The X is the $1000 phone.
sharkwaffle
How? Looking up the specs androids beats it in everyway
tablecat
Dude, the A11 stomps over literally any CPU on the market.
caramelballoffur
not sure if trolling, blind, or stupid. Did you not see the ”/s” at the end of my comment?
tablecat
Water resistance and most powerful phone CPU on the market? Most phones have that?
JuiceSpringsteen8
Samsung have been water resistant for years. The iPhone x has a 6 core A11 with 3GB of ram, to the S8's octa-core with 4GB of ram. 1/2
JuiceSpringsteen8
The iPhone X is releasing as a less powerful copy of the Samsung S8... 2/2
tablecat
I didn't say that no other phone had water resistance, I said MOST don't. Also, there's more to CPUs than that.
IloveHockey
still an apple fan boy?
SavageRancor
yea man faster cpu means faster candy crusj
tablecat
And everything else, yeah. I mean, it also allows for 4k 60fps recording, which no Android phone does right now, so there's that.
SavageRancor
OMG who care, its a fucking phone. If you need to film at 4k dont do it on a phone because it will be shit anyway
runo
And yet when an Android phone that does all of that, and likely does it better, it'll be far cheaper because it's not an Apple product.
tablecat
No far cheaper Android phone is going to have similar raw performance for a long time.
cdrgrnr
I think the others replying don't realize 30fps =! 60fps -5x User
tablecat
Wouldn't expect anything else from Imgur.
thesolamnus
"No android phone does right now" lol
tablecat
Go on, find me an Android phone that 4k@60fps.
thesolamnus
Samsung Galaxy S8

Sony Xperia Z5 Premium
RacerBoy93
ya but the note 8 and s8+ have 2960 x 1440 display. iphone doesnt. So eh
tablecat
Most people dont even have TVs and monitors with resolution, it's absolutely overkill with that res on phones - and I used to have an S7.
RacerBoy93
Hell no its not. Sorry i have a 4k 55inch display for my computer and at 4k settings.. Theres a huge difference in everything.

Please stop before you embarrass yourself even further.

How am I embarrassing yourself? I'm literally only stating facts here.
