Now as the campus is done, he is back to designing phones. Hopefully that means better devices in 2018. We will start to get the leaks in few months anyways 😁. Till then my iPhone 8+ will keep rocking my boat.

                    I would not buy an iPhone and give it to me, with so much limited system, no sd card, you can only play music through the itunes to kill, then to ring the phone as a specific melody, you have to cut it to 30s in the pc and rename it, then return to the program and into the phone
                    what is so complicated? It's absurd and boring, while Android is open, and you can do what you want, you have to put everything on the cloud instead of storing yourself on sd,
                    why should I hide my stuff on a server server ,,,, from where I know who has access to it,
                    so I do not want this shit even as a gift to add

                      Well we can expect next 3 iphones will again start with notch feature.
                      Apple will reduce production from half to one quarter.
                      Paying 800 for a so called budget phone is just too much even for an apple fans.

                            If you dont want read then dont read it.
                            Apple is US company and only reason their hones are made and assembled in china is because of a basic workers sallary in china and cost of expenses.
                            Try to imagine how much could cost for example old Iphone 4 made in US by US workers where the hourly pay is like 10 dollars per hour.
                            I tell you much more than apple X.
                            But in case of apple not only their prices are horrible.

                                    Lol how many times have we had to see that production orders don't necessarily correlate to sales.

                                    They ramped up production after finding out people liked it, and may have produced more than enough, so now they cut orders to slow down production.

                                    What's so hard to understand? It's so weird that analysts are paid big bucks for this. I also loved in the early years, after every launch, analysts would predict that "Rumour is Apple is working on the next model..." Remember those?

                                      Half? From 10 millions to 5 millions? LOL
