Let's talk about the overpriced 2018 iPhones. [DTUBE EXCLUSIVE RANT]

in #tech6 years ago (edited)


So the new iPhones was announced a few days ago, as expected. However, there are many reasons why you should not consider picking up either the iPhone Xs, Xs Max or the Xr. You could spend up to $1449 USD (plus tax) for a 512GB iPhone Xs Max which is ridiculous for a flagship smartphone!

Also I forgot to mention that both phones do not come with the fast charger included. You still have to spend $49 for a 30W USB-C power adapter and $19 for a lightning to USB-C cable if you do not have those handy!

while all those fancy features are great and I just don’t think the average or even above average user would need it, push the phone to its limits and need all that power or space! It’s all for novelty and status and makes no sense really

I have had quite a few iPhones over the years and I’m still very much ok with an iPhone 7 trying to keep up with the latest model doesn’t benefit me in any way! All I need is a phone that can WhatsApp and sync with my MacBook and I’m happy

I have been seriously thinking android for my next phone, I will most likely keep my iPhone 6s for use of its camera and backup of google Authenticator.

Apple is the worst for charging insane prices with devices that are already outdated in comparison with others already available on the market.

Searching iphone xs expensive and iphone xs overpriced` on YouTube returned about 5 videos that actually rant about the phone, out of many results in multiple pages.

Can't people just wake up? 🤔

No they cannot, branding is everything when it comes to consumerism plus people like me who have made the leap into the Apple pile do not want to waist the investments already made. That’s why I will keep my iPhone for backup but will migrate to android in future for more function but I still can’t just move the information I have on my iPhone directly to android like I could if upgrading to a newer iPhone.

Simplicity is the key, people will always choose what is easier no matter the cost or complications down the line.

By the time the price of these phones come down after the launch of newer and "better" models, our attention will be focused on the new models instead of the legacy.

so high price :(
