Serious question though. What is the maximum price before you guys stop buying the premium iphone.
I know willing buyer willing seller but unless ppl stop buying apple will never reduce the price. It’s honestly getting out of hand. |

QUOTE(lyc1982 @ Sep 14 2018, 11:46 AM) the reason apple is so confident with this latest iphone is due to no other phone with iOs system...even though no significant improvement from X model Indeed. And what ever they start, everyone will follow not limited to hp manufacture but also telco |

Msia’s market is small. Even if no one in msia buying, the price will not go down. The price is considered within means in the first world country. Even in spore, that is within most people means.

They couldn’t make much improvement becoz, ipx has come to a stage where it is already very good and sufficient for most users. More over it it merely 1 year gap.
QUOTE(sigheart @ Sep 14 2018, 12:58 PM) Then again the Xs Max isn't significantly better than the Xs which in turn isn't significantly better than the X lol! Apart from the bigger screen and minor improvement on battery life over the Xs, everything else is the same between the Xs and Xs Max. Plus one hand operation on the Xs Max will be almost impossible. God damn it why does Apple need to make it so hard this year. If the difference between the Xs and Xs Max was as significant as the plus vs non plus versions I would just top up for the Xs Max no questions asked. Guess this is why its a "Max" instead of a "Plus". |

More over it it merely 1 year gap. The same can be said of most flagship phones actually. All they have to do now is fit a 5000mAh battery into each and everyone of them and I’m good |
