Wireless charging mat called AirPower. Charges iPhone, Apple Watch and AirPods (optional case) at once. Probably quite expensive. Next year.

What a very shit phone.

I watched this event live because I was genuinely thinking of upgrading (looks like it's going to be a downgrade tongue) to the iPhone X from my S8 but I'm not impressed.

The iPhone 8 should've been called the 7s. But they're playing catch up with the S8's model number.

I'm only impressed by the A11 processor, slayed the S8. Unfortunately I won't be rendering 3D content on my phone so that kind of performance isn't necessarily a plus (good for future proofing though)

FaceID really It's slower and less intuitive to use than TouchID

Wireless Charging. Yay Welcome to 2012 iPhone users!

iPhone 8 - still the same 750p resolution as the iPhone 6. The first time i accidentally switched to 1080p from 2K on the S8, I thought my eyes had gone bad (the difference is that noticeable between 1080P & 1440P, now imagine the difference between 750P and 1440P)

Not impressive Apple!

You said it all. I'm only impressed by the SoC, but due to the limited functionalities of iOS it's basically meaningless for now. The funniest line during the presentation was "super retina display". Lol, they should have just called it by it's name "super AMOLED by Samsung"

Yup, if you're on any apple device (6s and above) just keep your money.

Let's see what they come up with in 2018 though.

I'm only considering switching to iOS because no Android Wear watch matches the Apple Watch

Dude, the Audience were annoying.

They only added a "Super" to the "Retina" that was already on screen and they started going berserk and clapping. They didn't even wait for them to explain the pluses of the "Super"

Welcome to that time of the year where SOME ladies start banging/bleeping their way to purchasing one of these phones so as to feel like a big girl.

Also this is the time where SOME guys would also swindle their parents or swindle other people to purchase this phone so as to feel like a big boy.

Yh you nailed it but unfortunately they will still buy it.
What's special about Apple watch? I swear down, you haven't read much about it. Did you know Apple just introduced LTE to Apple watch and it's been on Samsung Gear S2 .

Do you know you can't make phone calls with Apple watch without iPhones?

Apple watch is BS compared to some other watches. Read up on Gear S2 and S3

Lol. They expected more from Apple but became disappointed. iPhone X is me in design as well especially the notch on top. Reviewers hit the essential phone hard because of that, I'm sure their voice and fingers will be lost since their believed Apple did exact same thing with the iPhone

The camera design placement is boring as well and wondering why FPS was ditched all together when they could have embedded it on the power button or the logo behind it.

The only impressive thing about this launch is A11. Apple isn't innovating anymore. The only beautiful thing about this event was a stolen product which is the SoC

I just like the style of the Apple Watch.

The LG Watch Style looks good but it doesn't support Android Pay. (joke's on me because Apple Pay isn't supported where I live)

It's your choice then bro not based on facts. I think Samsung pay is now opened so you should be able to use it on the LG watch style if you aren't impressed with the Gear S2 and S3

You're never thinking of moving to iPhone X. Everything you typed is devoid of objectivity but filled with vitriol.

The only thing you said that's a little bit of sense was the wireless charging (+ fast charging)

The A11 is too much hardware in 2017 but your contradiction is well seen with your approach on the 750p screen resolution on the iPhone, which first of all is only on iPhone 8 and second of all, FHD is too much hardware for a 4.7 inch phone.

You've already concluded that FaceID is slower and less intuitive. Unless you've used the iPhone X, your point here is moot. It's well explained how the Faceid utilises projector beams and illuminators with a failure rate of 0.0000001%, 20 times more secure than TouchID. And it's compliant with Apple pay, apps same as the TouchID

And Apple is playing catchup with Samsung's model number? What does that even mean? The flagship is iPhone 10 not 8. And last I checked S8/S8+ is still playing catchup to iPhone 7 in sales


Level up, young man. Your biased points are rather immature

I don't have to use it to know this. Stop making a fool of yourself.

Here's a hands-on video
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mtUlRE1b8Rc showing how she has to (I'm quoting here)"Manually Tilt" the iPhone to get it unlocked

Raising your phone to unlock is less intuitive than putting your finger on the home button to unlock it from any angle. You'd have known this if the A11 chip wasn't faster than your brain.

Which is easier?. Unlocking my phone by putting my hand on the button before even pulling it out of my pocket completely or bringing it out then putting it in front of my face,

Common sense

And Apple
is playing catchup with Samsung's model number? What does that even mean? The flagship is iPhone 10 not 8. And last I checked S8/S8+ is still playing catchup to iPhone 7 in sales

Because you can't read simple english and understand.

This is what I wrote "The iPhone 8 should've been called the 7s. But they're playing catch up with the S8's model number."
