Anonymous, 29 Oct 2018Overpriced garbage that is essentially a Sony Xperia SP lol... moreXperia SP from 2013 had 1/10th of the horsepower, half the screen quality , the camera was 1/10th of the quality, its battery would last half, Sony never upgrades her phone. I know I sadly owned the Xperia SP
You could not pick a more dissimilar phone. Going from xperia SP to this it is like going from a bicycle to spaceship. This is the worst comparison that I have read in all my life. Nothing gets worse than this.

Apple fans excuses: why would you do that? We don't need to, we have the Apple logo.

AnonD-781012, 29 Oct 2018Even dogs seem less loyal in front of apple fans!This is the best phone per price in 2018.
Twice as good SoC as anybody else. Actually passive biometrics (that work and is secure). Best bokeh/portrait effect in the industry due to the much more advanced SoC, actually useful AR and so much more.
Only problem is iOS which looks and acts positively ancient. But everything else it beats any phone its price range.
For example look at one Plus. Still using that weak Qualcomm SoC, still using active biometrics as if we live in 2000s or sth, lower screen clarity (very low subpixel count), no AR to speak off... It is clearly the worse option, yet some people praise it because fandroids are blindly loyal and let the quality of their phones slip.
If only android fans were as demanding as Apple fans. Maybe we wouldn't be taking active biometrics which is useless once you have used its passive variant. Or the weak SoC... Oh well.

Galaxy Note 10, 29 Oct 2018No they deserve 780p LCD Apple knows it is good enough for themYou do realize that this is sharper than 1080p smoked (pentile). Or are your fandroids so blind to the reality that you would ignore every reality?
Also it's 828p

What users want? Clearly Apple knows what users want because their sales q after q is so high.

Apple has completely lost the plot about what users want. Massive, overexpensive models aren't going to sell units, even with Apple's fan loyalty!

Some brilliant comments here
"Only fools buy that phone with a 720 resolution LCD haha". Have you seen the phone? The screen is fine, same as iPhone 8. Which nobody complained about. Also, its not 720p is it? So who is the fool now.
"Who needs an iPhone xr when OnePlus just launched their new OnePlus 6t📱" Somebody who wants to use iOS and stay clear of Android?
"iOS still can't multitask in 2018. It's about as advanced as Symbian S60 was." I'm not even going to answer this. You are just plain wrong. iOS cannot multitask? never a bigger lie told

I do like iOS and I do like iPhones, but I dislike Apple's marketing - pricing to be more accurate. It is not the price itself, but it is what you get for that price. For that price - only chipset is on point, everything else is below expectations. To pay that much just to have phone whose hardware averages on 2016 at the best (2017 camera and display from 2014) just because it has A12 chipset inside - it's ridiculous! The iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 plus are way better options than this.

They shipped to the dealers those millions. I bet they make offers like the more units you buy the best price you get or offer a longer payment plan.
How many units reached to the end-user? We will see in the near future. If the sealers don't sell quickly they will cancel the next orders or diminish them.
