Whats so special about the $1,000 iphone? You can get a HD, quad core, 3gb ram, 13mp camera, sd card slot, headphone jack cell phone for like $100 srs. LG makes really good androids that have good tech for cheap. what does the iphone do that $100 phones cant? besides novelty gimmik things...
just lmao. these cucks making $9/hour financing $1000 iphones. guarantee 99% of users only use it to browse the web, youtube, email, instagram, ********, snapchat, and make calls. even a potato potato can do that really fast.
anyways from 2 feet away or more nobody can even tell wtf phone you have, especially with the case on.

The principle is referred to as "sheep following sheep".
Or put more simply, retards follow other retards in buying over-priced, inferior products because of a fake image people want to get when in actuality they just look like complete goofs for forking over their money for a product they know nothing about but believe themselves to be "the cool kid". It's just for vapid people who are insecure about their image so they feel the need to buy Apple to feel superior.
It's quite comical actually.
inb4 you can't afford it pal
Not even hating on iPhone, I had the 4 and I loved it, but its laughable the Superiority complex people get by buying Apple.Not part of any crews crew

I literally say this about every new phone that is released that everybody is lining up for
brb all your going to do is the same chit you do on your old phone.
text = 70% of the time
Social media = 25% of the time
actually phoning people to talk to them = 5% of the time.

You are just mad that I showed you up. You came into OP's thread about how the Iphone X is a waste of $1,000 and decided to make it about how you made $2,000 in 2 hours and acting like you are rich AF. Sorry fella, but you aren't impressing anyone. I sound like a ******* because I did exactly what you did to OP fool.

iPhones hold value well compared to other phones. That’s what got me into the iPhone life. Verizon will give me $500 for my current cell phone if I upgrade so it’s really just $500 to upgrade and not $1000. Assuming in two years I’ll do the same thing with iPhone 12 it’ll be around the same. $500 isn’t a lot of money to spend on something you use literally every single day of your life. That being said, I have not ordered iPhone X but I’m temped to just so I can get that $500 for my current phone while I can. .
As for android vs iPhone, who gives a fuk. I just like the resale and reliability of iPhone (had a Samsung years back and it was the glitchiest phone you could imagine. I’m sure they’re not like that anymore but it still bothers me to think about) Plus top of the line androids are around $1000 these days also but resale isn’t as high as iPhone.
iPhone is my only Apple product btw. Use surface laptop as computer and wear real watches (no smart watch)
Cliffs. Resale value is high. $1000 isn’t a lot of money for something you use every single day./\^/\^Misc Colorado Crew^/\^/\^

Someone told me at work, that if they have the perfect picture, best music player and fastest phone for games then $1500AUD is worth it.
The thing is, when is it going to stop? When are these people going to say enough is enough? I understand you want a quick phone to use the camera to take special photos of your kids but any phone under $500 can do that.
Besides, I find the new Iphone pretty ugly. If the same Iphone X was an Android, it wouldn't have any hype.

The have-nots want to show that they do. It's actually a status symbol to them. It's like having fake bead-locker rims on your landscaping truck, $300 nikes (omg lol at this), or eating out all the time.
I don't know anyone in the top 10% of earners that does this chit. They seem to value money.Boycott foodservice industry crew

You're acting like the iPhone X is NOT the best smartphone on the market.
The reviews by professionals say otherwise, but they must all be paid off.
On the topic of price it is $1000 for a computer in your pocket. Payments can be split over a 2 year period with a carrier. We are talking about a little over $1/day. Yes, you can save a few hundred dollars and get a cheaper phone but you're acting like buying a premium product is a crime.
I really don't understand the insecurities of Android users. Check any Apple article and they're always there. I wouldn't be surprised if the majority are hired trolls, you only have to look as far as Apple earnings to see what consumers want and buy.

Tons of positive critic reviews saying the iphone x is a great phone, feels like a 1K phone and lives up to the hype. yet people trying to say why dont people just be happy with a poverty android phone. Let people enjoy nice things. Its a LUXURY phone just like the galaxy note is, both are great phones. Just be comfortable with your choice to not spend extra on a phone

My point is proven. People who don't know how to quantify a concept in a way that enables them to make good decisions regarding abstract concepts will be all over this. You don't even know what a "$1000" smart phone is supposed to do because you've never seen one until now yet here you are asserting that you know everything.
I know I don't need a $1000 smart phone because I've got $150 asus that came out 3 years ago already does everything with low latency as it is. The only thing "luxury" phones do that others can't is large texture 3D gaming which there isn't even demand for yet and fukkin lol if you think apple's OS is going to appeal to these types of development teams right now.
And yeah, most consumers want apple because most consumers have something to prove which is EXACTLY what I stated previously.
brb 60k truck, 40k car, 40k school loans, 4k furniture might as well throw a couple $1k phones into the mix. brb living in 100k house though lololol.Boycott foodservice industry crew

I personally don't like Apple products, but as far as phones go I just run mine until they start breaking down then upgrade to whatever is out. I actually still own all of the phones I've ever used and they all still work. I don't mind the higher price tag(I think my S7 was $700 or something like that?) if it's a solid phone, but I think it's stupid that people will upgrade their phones every year just to have the latest thing. I've never understood that as long as I've had one.
Agree with the comparison to the expensive shoes though, I think it's just a status thing that others can see. Also similar to the hobo clothing that Kanye West sells for hundreds/thousands of dollars lol.XBL - SqueakyBOOTS

Why buy a high end PC when you can play the same game on lower setting?
Why buy an expensive car when you can buy a Kia that gets you to point A to point B?
Why date a hot girl when you can just date an ugly fatty, who still got a vagina?
In the end, its not my money. I dont care what people do with theirs. I myself love the iPhone but will never buy Macs.
