Apple presents iPhone X with OLED Screen and Face ID

Its too expensive man, 1k is a lot of money! This must be for rich spoiled dubai teenagers or something.

 

Is it only me or is that design... ugly is the word? Specs are impressive though.

 

I dont think that matters that much for a phone. I mean there hasnt been a time when my S7 cant do something I need it do. And since I dont play games gpu isnt a concern for me also on a phone.

 

the s7 is still an expensive phone, I would rather have an iPhone 7 vs an s7 though. Im really curious to see which iPhone sells best, the 8 still has great specs and I still like the screen on the iPhone 7 better than most high res android screens that are calibrated horribly.
Remember it was Samsung that spent billions convincing the world anybody who liked apple is a sheep. Just look at the price of the upcoming note 8 lol (929 us, even more in most countries).

 

lol i wonder why u compare intel vs amd, because it perform close in daily task
but would rather more similar to compare OSX vs windows

apple - close enviroment hardware-software optimization will always likely better compared to open enviroment
but nowdays, i dont think it like night and day different... most likely daily stuff will just like a sec different
like this simple vids :

the only thing that usually ios win is loading time for game... thats mainly because better memory management than android-java

 

about hi-res android screen... u know those super-retina on iphone X is reported made by samsung , right?
think that apple can magically calibrate the oled to be much different/better than samsung S/note lineup?

speaking the price, iphone X is $999 for 64gb also
and apple did different to samsung ? both or doing same stuff to me
and people with money will keep buying both phones

 

yes I am confident that apple knows how to calibrate a screen, they've proven themselves time and time again.

 

I bet they still sell by the truckload, as these are the Nvidia of the mobile phone market

 

those type of vids are completely useless, its so easy to make one phone look better than the other in a test like that. From personal experience pretty much everything is smoother on an iphone because of the much better ipc. Heres another useless video just to prove my point, .

 

It has little to do with the SoC's IPC and everything to do with Apple running OSX's animation stack on a completely separate thread that has priority over everything else. What makes matter worse is that widely popular products like the Note/S8 still have frame pacing issues on basic animations like opening the app drawer. I don't know if those issues correspond to the increased battery longevity against Nexus devices with similar capacities but I'd take smoother animations over slightly longer battery anyday of the week.

 

Except it's not. The iphone 8 is more like the X than it is the 7. Both of the new A11 while the 7 has the older A10 processor. The 8 has the same wireless charging, 60fps @ 4k video recording while the 7 does 30fps @ 4k.

What some people don't get is the iphone 8 is the next generation progression of the iphone 7 and the price is about the same. Apple didn't jack up the price for the iPhone. What they did was release a new premium phone in the iphone X much like nVidia's Titan series of graphics cards.

As for me, my iPhone 5 is still chugging along just fine for my needs. Its built like a tank and the only thing i've had to do was change the battery about a year ago. All while watching my friends with Android phones shell out more money every year to constantly have the latest and greatest, or because they keep breaking. I'll take the iphone's build quality over android any day of the week. Many studies show android devices are far more likely to fail. https://www.blancco.com/resources/r...-performance-and-health-trend-report-q1-2016/

 

thats where you see the true value in the iPhone as a product, as time goes on the performance difference becomes more obvious to the point where any android phone that came out around the time the iPhone 5 did feels like a piece of junk in comparison (even to the average user).

 

I think we both know the qualcomm chip will be slaughtered in everything but multicore synthetic tests, and thats even with many android makers "cheating" on benchmarks. The big problem is that android makers are stuck fighting a battle of bigger numbers instead of actual better performance.

 

The prices for the 8 ($770) are higher than the 7 ($700) when it was released, it took the wind out of me for even considering a purchase. $1000 for the X is just too much for a phone. I'm sure a lot of people will buy it anyway but I no longer feel like I'm getting my money's worth from high end phones. I've never spent that much on a PC part or even a TV, forget a mobile phone. I wish I could install iOS on an android phone though lol. I much prefer iOS.

 

huh? the a10 crushes even the 821 http://www.androidauthority.com/qualcomm-snapdragon-821-versus-apple-a10-fusion-730146/

 

Well recently i destroyed my s3 screen was my fault so be it, thing is i got my xiaomi note4x 5.5 inch 1080 p screen arm 625 4100 mah baterry 3gb ram and i am not kidding the bettery last 3 days and the 3rd day at night has about 20% battery , all that for 159 euro ,i browse the net check my mails and using it as an mp3 player never had a sinle stuter why would i ever want to pay 1200 euros to gain almost nothing ?

 

I wouldn't be surprised if the next iPhone gets a rectal scanner.
