People are being killed left and right in this country. As usual, the youth are talking about iphone. What is the value of an iphone if you're not even sure whether the fulanis and Buhari will allow you to see tomorrow? Future leaders my ass!

This is not true. It won't even make the list of Top 20 most expensive smartphones right now
Don't mind all these ignorant bloggers.. The Op has no idea of what an expensive smartphone is...

I recently published a review of the Apple iPhone X, and truth be told, it's amazing.

Do not forget it's the most expensive smartphone right now ...

As amazing as it is, I think it just has that "Apple Hype."

Now, I'm directing the question to you: Is It Overhyped Or Overpriced? Or it's really worth it?

https://www.favshub.com/2018/06/iphone-x-review.html

I am a lover of iPhone and a dealer. IPhone X is overhyped. IPhone 8 and 8 plus are simply the two best if you as me.

I have the iPhone X

I don’t know if it was worth the money or not.

It has good picture quality that’s all I’m usually interested in but I can bet I don’t use it to it’s full potential. I don’t know much about technology so I’m not a reliable resource on it’s worth

You are asking if it worth it when you should be telling them to prepare for another release soon.

I agree. What made the iphone great was that it was special, different, and new. People justified the price bc of those things. But now an Iphone comes out every year with not much difference, lower quality, and increased price.Meanwhile, its competitors are coming for Iphones top spot. Androids for me.

It's your opinion, and I respect that. It doesn't mean I accept it though.
You're addressing an audience that's non existent here, it is not as if they are not here but they don't have the time to reply such things, you'll only get the opinion of non users.

I use a phone I bought for just under N450k, I don't see how it is overpriced. There's something called intrinsic value, you really can't place a price tag on it. It is like asking a person wearing a D&G shirt if it wasn't over priced since similar shirt from other brands should be $100 or less. He bought the D&G to look different.

You really can not operate in a sphere you have not attained and until you get there, the things done there look stupid and outrageous to you.

Many things are overhyped in this world and they are usually branded as luxury goods. People purchase them mostly NOT cos of the value they would get, but for the fact that they now become part of an exclusive group of people who use such product to the exclusion of others. There's even an economic term for it but I can't recall right now.

Friend, there are some that could afford to buy and decided not to bc of the reasons listed. The question is open to non users and users alike.

I think you are referring to social status or social prestige.
In marketing, brands do by using brand prominence, (how easily a brand is recognized), i.e logo, iphone's sleek white design.

Sure, choosing not to buy the phone does not mean a person can not afford it but I do not see the sense in asking a person who has never driven a car if buying a car is worth it. It is the reason companies almost exclusively employ only people with experience.

Hmm maybe you should say, a person who does not have a car is not qualified to answer whether buying a car is worth it.
The question is if buying an iphone is overpriced or overhyped. A person who has done the research is qualified to answer the question. The question is subjective in nature, so you will get subjective answers.

Fact, Apple has a multi million dollar marketing machine behind its products.
Fact Apple puts a new phone every year almost at over $700-999 dollars
Fact The newest iphones had bugs and issues. Actually in the last couple of years, each release had quirks.
Fact Some features on Samsung beat the Iphone at a lower price point.

So it is not worth it to ME based on the research I have done.

Bro, knowing is not the same as feeling. You can't research that, the first day I held that phone if I was an apple fan I would have collected one for myself. I will still buy it, I just want a version produced by Samsung running android.

Well, I tried one out in the store and decided it wasnt for me.
Give it a couple of years, and I anticipate Samsung out doing Apples phone.

I will part ways with you now. (Shakes hands)
