AirPower looks like a maxipad, there is a absolutely nothing special about its design, it's actually one of the plainest products they have ever come out with...or have never come out with.
This honestly looks way better than a majority of its 3rd party counterparts
I really like the AirPower design, very clean and no annoying LED lights, chrome trim, logos or anything like that. And one of the most annoying things of most Qi chargers is they put that stupid "FAST CHARGE" in huge letters, makes it look tacky as hell. AirPower looks a lot more elegant in comparison.
If it's reasonably priced I'll probably buy two, one for my desk and one for my bedside table/nightstand. Would like a black version though.
What update? 11.2.2? It was only supposed to include Spectre mitigations, so I'd doubt it's any different.
care to elaborate? I'm currently thinking about switching from Android (S7) to the X. I like the phone more than any Android device but the switch from Android to ios makes me really anxious.
Heh yeah, I am expecting $129 - $150 for AirPower and I wouldn't be shocked if they charge even more. Plus it'd require the new AirPods case that supports wireless charging on top of that, guessing that'll cost like $75 too.
Let me just say that I don't pledge my allegiance to a specific brand or company. I started with an iPhone 3g, moved to a Galaxy S4, back to iPhone, back to OnePlus, and now back to iPhone.
My biggest gripes come from moving from a "stock" android experience on the OnePlus 3T, back to the restrictive ecosystem that is Apple. Hardware-wise, the X is a monster. Though the more I use it and its old, familiar software, I miss the customization and the small things.
The company I work for was built on Google's enterprise backbone. So like i said, I miss the small things. When signing in to google on Android, it will automatically authenticate because it knows your device. Whereas on the iPhone, you're prompted to open the Google app and click a button. Yes it works fine, but it's not as seamless. Other things like known safe areas, YouTube/Gmail/Maps optimizations, and Google Home integration make me miss it a lot.
I love how things just work with Apple, be it the watch, AirPods, etc, but the phone never feels like it's mine. If that makes sense. I can change the wallpaper and app layout, but that's about it.
And the notification system is a dumpster fire right now. Always has been though.
I am looking for a good iphone case, after I searched Era l found no extra thread dedicated to cases so yeah. As I am getting a new phone, and have been sticking to the same motif for 2 gens I thought it us time for a change.
My last one came from redbubble — tough edition — which really did a good at protecting my old phone. Be it falls to solid ground (1m was no problem) even water; it fell once into the water at a small river because I was looking at the lock of a watergate (while I turned it off right away nothing had happened to my loyal iphone6).
The thing is that they increased the price for those cases (now I dont have a problem with paying a lot for a good case) but then it's supposed to be good looking at least. Sadly none of the designs really click with me.
Before I settle for a product with a hefty price despite not liking the looks I wanted to know if there is another place where good iphone covers can be found.

This would be shocking to me. However as someone who has the X and loves it dearly. I would be ok if they stay away somehow from the thousand dollar phones.

Convenience and on the go.
Throw it down while you're doing something then pick up and go. Cords are messy.
I use it. It's simply more convenient. I like being able to just toss my phone on the nightstand or desk and not have to deal with the cable. There are few times when I need fast charging and I just plug it in for those. It's pretty much always topped up though because of the aforementioned convenience
I have my wireless pad on my desk at work, it's the best. Come in in the morning, chuck it down and it's charged back up. I don't even really think about needing to charge my phone anymore.
Shame it took so long for Apple to adopt it, but I'm glad it's here.

I use it at home. Easy to plop it down and pick it up if I want to check something. That's how the cords always rip from using it while it's plugged in
thank you, that's exactly the kind of answer I was looking for. :) I think I could live with these draw backs, but it's still a hard decision that will take some time.
I have a hard time believing this but I would be happy as it would make my phone a collectors item.
Macrumors posted another report similar. Basically saying they wont discount price it when the next model comes out. I don't think they want to sell it for less than a thousand so makes sense
They won't keep selling it for a $1,000 together with a new model as the new model
would need to be significantly even more expensive. I think Kuo clarified he means that the current iPhone X will just be discontinued instead of discounted. That already has happened in the past, for example with the original iPhone or iPhone 5.
Out of curiosity, what do you mean by 'signs no into google'? Just your account on the site?
I know that's what I was trying to say. They will just flat out replace it
I didn't even realize they had Opinion Rewards on iOS. What do they reward you with?
I want a BIG mouse pad where half of it is a wireless charger. Does this exist? The only ones I've seen on Amazon look pretty small.
Yeah, so I have 2-factor authentication enabled on my Google account. Whenever I need to sign in, be it my email, a website, or an app, I'm prompted by 2-factor.
On Android, that prompt is instantaneous in most cases, where as it's not on IOS. Even if I have a code texted to me, Android will recognize the code and enter it for me. These are small things, but you start to notice them a lot once they're gone.
I think I might upgrade my iPhone 6 Plus to an iPhone X today. What new (useful) features have I been missing out on?
3D Touch, I guess.
Coming from an iPhone 6 I have been playing around with it these first few days of X ownership, though it's a bit mean of Apple to make it a requirement in order to activate the swipe to correct feature for the keyboard while they could have easily implemented the same function without 3D touch on older phones as well, see SwipeSelection jailbreak tweak.

Also is it true that the Air Power charger will cost $199? Lol
How is this charger?

I use it on my nightstand when I go to sleep. Much easier and convenient. However, the real benefit is what's to come. Restaurants, bars, stores, airports, etc with wireless charging stations, meaning you never have to worry about having a cable with you.
Hmm. I have two factor on as well, but once the device and account log in is verified, I don't have to go through that again even if I log out of the account.
I do know that the code auto verification works for iOS as well, though obviously for Apple devices.
Mine is money into my paypal
It's great. Well worth it for the features.
Dolby Vision/HDR10 display
Wireless charging
Better overall glass design
Speedy
Camera improvements (4k60, 1080p240)
I'm pretty sure the X is the only one with an HDR display.
The 8 Plus is fine, but it's going to feel dated a lot faster compared to the X which should be pretty close to the 2018 iPhone.
8 Plus has it as well. I watch Netflix in Dolby Vision.

I think it's mad Katz showed one at CES. Qi charging mat for the new mouse that also had room for a cell phone
Unlike the X the screen isn't actually made for HDR though.
