The $999 Phone
« on: September 22, 2017, 06:00:23 pm »
So, I'm sure many of you recently have heard about Apple's new fancy iPhone X (10), worth $999. What are your thoughts on this? Anyone considering to buy it?  :o

No, not interested in any phone that costs $1000. I can buy a lot of things that are more useful for all that money.

It's hard to believe that people would pay $1,000 for something that they are only going to use for a year or two. I won't be buying something that overpriced.

I have a Blu Android phone that works plenty fine for me. It's got all the bells and whistles I need, and it only cost me $60! It has ads that pop up when you first turn it on, but they're easy to swipe off and go about your business. I don't think I'd pay $1000 for a phone even if I had money to burn (I'd probably burn it on something else)!  8)

I'd never pay that much for a phone.  I've never owned an iphone and probably never will (loyal android user).  I paid close to $80 for mine a few years ago and it's just fine.  I guess if you have the money and can afford it fine.  I can think of a lot more practical uses for $1000.

I would not spend that on a phone. There are better uses of that kind of money.

Omg, $999? That's crazy! I think it's more worth it to buy a laptop instead of a little phone for that price!

It is a bit insane.  Hopefully people won't actually pay that and send them a message that the cant keep charging more and more

What is so special about that one? It is funny how these company keeps making new phones which cost an arm and a leg. I remembered the Razor blades. It was mach then mach 1 and so forth. But they are almost the same. Cuts the same to me though.

I think the new IPhone is cool, but to me I wouldn't pay that kind of price for a phone that could break or not work. I could buy more stuff with that kind of money.
