am I the only one that still think Apple has run out of creativity

nope. you, me and the rest of the world. and this year's event just seemed so ...lazy

XS? Really? X meaning 10 was the 10th year anniversary special so this year cannot be X anymore! such a lazy upgrade. and the big brother - XS Max . the hell kind of name is that.

removing the adapter dongle and making it a separate order..? come on Apple billion dollar company and still no fast charger included.

Speaking as fan boy since IP4 and owned each year the fan-ness is slowly reducing.

Problem is the alternative - nothing much as i feel Android still a work in progress. Have used Samsung, Xioami, Nokia (experimenting you know..) still keep coming back to iOS. Should give a little more to keep the fan base loyal.

Looks like the camera lens cover is not sapphire crystal after all. Marketing gimmick.

Ya.. thats what the reviews say but I dont really believe it. Pixel 2 XL is last years phone coupled with last year's tech. Lets wait for DXO mark to review first. The IPhone Xs and Xs Max should be pitted against the Pixel 3 instead.

Pixel 2 cams even now praised by most YT tech guys. Pity. Wish Google would have local units here.

hello Max owners how's the battery life? First iPhone with a 3K battery. (if sources mentioned are correct)

How's the staying power? Better as Apple mentioned?

Come in early owners with a mini review inc camera

The charge issue is not something new though, it has been there for a while (wake screen to charge), hmm but the screen freeze (fake charging) seems to be something new laugh.gif

not new? sorry you mean not new on the XS? or was already on the X?
