    I'm curious as to where the prices came from? Either someone hasn't done their maths correctly or Europe is getting ripped off compared to the US? £999 does not = $999 usd. If these prices are correct, in the current market Europe is paying an extra €284 UK an extra £225 for the 6.5"?

      Whackcar, 09 Sep 2018Yeah it is an overrated feature that eats up your battery (... moreYup. Pretty useless feature.

      What if you'll just buy a classic watch and BAM!
      Way more practical than usual AOD crappy setting.

        Whackcar, 09 Sep 2018Yeah it is an overrated feature that eats up your battery (... moreI agree, any ammount of battery wasted on that is simply a wasted battery.

        My overall experience with my S8 was poor, BUT in that phone's defense - notification led was really practical. And my screen did not burn in.

It's not just the cpu that consumes power. Actually in normal everyday usage, modem consumes more. Screen too. Gps module too.

          No amount of optimisation can compensate for a small battery.

            Everything is ok. But why apple is not able to produce budget phones and secondly why apple is not opening any store in Pakistan while about a million of Pakistani people use Apple's gadgets

              It will be great if apple still continues to make small screen phone with less bezels.

It's the next big thing as far as processors go. Even PC is moving to the 7nm process with AMD Zen 2. I'm not going to pay top dollar for a flagship that has a last-gen processor.

For that same amount, you could have bought a dedicated $65 GPS device and $50 bluetooth headset for your car/iPhone and use the change to buy:
                        1. A genuine Swiss mechanical watch, or if you already have lots of more expensive mechanical Swiss watches,
                        2. A 50"-70" 4K UHD tv, or if you already have a much better state-of-the-art front projection based home theater display system,
                        3. A 4K video equipped, interchangeable lens APS-C camera, or if you already have a more expensive full frame camera,
                        4. An additional prime lens for your interchangeable lens camera.
                        Those are way more lasting and useful than an overpriced sapphire Apple watch (or iPhone X) that gets replaced every year. And you can conspicuously display or be showy with those alternatives too, for longer, if it's partly one of the main reasons you bought a sapphire apple watch.

                        I'm not telling you how to spend your money because it's your choice. I'm just saying that for your use case scenario, there are FAR better, more useful, longer lasting options even if one of the main reasons is simply to showcase your exquisite refined taste or purchasing power.

                            Kingslayer, 10 Sep 2018Pixel 3 won't be manufactured HTC or LG. Thank goodness. Go... morePixel 3 = codename Htc Blueline

                            They would not buy part of the facilities to pay Foxconn to build the phone

                              Pixel 3 won't be manufactured HTC or LG. Thank goodness. Google will use Foxconn or a subsidiary of them. The Pixel 4 with Android Quiche might be the one to wait for in a year since that's the first time for Google totally controlling the design in-house.

                              The iPhone Xc might arrive later anyway. $849? So much for iPhone X(cheap). I'll use my Essential Phone and iPhone SE until both break. The pricing is a joke. Or $550 OnePlus 6T, here I come...

                              OnePlus 6 held its own. I thought S9+ was winning it clearly until the last half of the video. Low light for iPhone X is crap.

                                iPhone X is a good phone but apple went give us the latest innovation we all know that apple can now drop the notch or make it very small but we will get that after 3 years from now
                                I will buy iPhone when they. Give me a perfect Face ID and in screen finger unlock, and quick charge like oneplus and 3 years good battery performance and naturally a smaller notch

                                    It's still going to be iPhone Xpensive.

                                    iPhone Xc - $849? LOL

                                    Black Friday sale this year needs to really be good for me to get another iPhone. BOGO sans bill credits or $400-$500 would need to happen.

                                    I'm content getting the Apple Watch. That's it. My SE is ready to pair with it for Apple Maps.

I also answer calls on the apple watch while driving, the sound is loud and clear enough to use in fairly noisy environments. Not to mention safe payments with apple pay on the AW, very nice, virtual card numbers are used for maximum safety, and the virtual card number will be different on the iPhone connected to the same physical card s the AW. Its the most useful device ever.
                                        I have an expensive model AW with sapphire glass, the price is kinda insane but worth it over the sports models with ionX glass, i had one before and it had tiny scratches despite careful usage. The disadvantage with sapphire is that dirt sticks more to it but its unproblematic, it stays scratch free no matter what you do, its unreal how strong it is.
