    It's still 60hz hardly what you can call fast gaming these days. I really thought they'd step it up like the iPad Pro

    Theyd never put that in an LCD phone tho, supposedly its not even coming in the pro either. If the Note 10 didnt have it the Pro defo wont.

    The notch on the iPhones is really looking to start dated.

    $699 is a decent price in fairness.

    Apple are still the king of promotional videos. Always makes mediocre look great.

    The graphics card improves the graphics. As I said. I didn’t say refresh rate.

    Theyve knocked 12-15% off the cost price so it was due.

    Very surprised at the price drops, and I'm expecting it for the Pro model too. I know Apples iPhone sales have gone down a bit in the last few years, so this may be their way of handling it.

    Hmmm, I don't think that's right. The XR started at 750 in the US.

    I wouldn't hold my breath for a price drop on the Pro models. Knowing Apple, they'll up the prices.

    Forbes reported it that Apples cost of manufacturing for the "iPhone" has been reduced by 12-15%. Not sure if that applies to all iPhones or just particular ones, or it might be an average across the board.

    Id imagine the cost of sourcing LCD panels now is feck all.

    Low power design. Jesus Tim just put in a bigger battery like everyone else.

    They have to really otherwise the iPhone section would be done in 15 minutes. They're even stating specs from previous models as if they were new on this one.
