Apple does not simply hike their product. So I expect Xs 64 priced rm4857. And 5565 will be minimum price for 64gb Xs Max. Oh well at tat price point I might just get Xs too.. Not really keen on the huge screen. But yeah u get the wow factor since xs max is bigger and ppl may not notice u using xs unless u get the gold color. But I can say I love the new gold color.. Just looks tad classier

Kesian, have to make a new and cheaper version just to sell more. How meh has the iPhome become this day sad.gif

If they are discontinuing 7/8/X after the Xr is launched it is still pretty much the same thing like before. However, the benefit for the folks on budget is tremendous as they using the new chip rather than the old chip.

I think the XR is a better option at least. But the Max one costing 1.1k usd, I just wonder how much more increase in price it will get in a few more generations.

You still can only fit a single sim card even though it is dual. Once esim is fully operator supported in all countries u will truly wonder why there is even a need for two physical slot in the past.

I believe eSIM will rule them all. laugh.gif Just look at nano SIM. Now almost every green robot phone also using nano SIM.

Btw, just realize that our local telco maxis got but currently only for huawei watch sweat.gif

I'd go for XR too. Those OLED screens, they strain my eyes and give me headaches. And the name Liquid Retina is quite cool lol

LOL hell no, dual camera is owes better than single. The effect of after photo depth adjust will definitely better for iPhone xs. Just during their event they cannot tell u how much lousiet Xr is compare to xs. They don't even say about thicker bezel. It is up for u to find out.

Ya, I was thinking it would drop for the following year with the Max taking the price point of the X. Like the price point of then 7/7+. But their smaller screen keeps the price and the Max goes into a more obscene level. Pretty disappointing really.

Not only that, the ipxr has the same low pixel density of the ip8. Yucks.

The main thing I hate about my ip8 vs my ipx.

I was watching the hands on video earlier and noticed the XR indeed have a slightly thicker bezel. All the more obvious since the back color is not black.
I thought it is just me
