I'm just excited the GPU'S are getting faster in a mobile device. I really wanted Apple to have more pixel density in their iPhone X. 2000+ do would mean that we can wear an iPhone as a head set and have a descent VR experience.

#992They make is so easy to login to the phone -- I'm still waiting for the ability to add multiple users. When I hand my phone to my daughter she should see her apps, my son, his. And when I hand my phone to my wife, she should unlock it and see.... her phone . If 256GB local storage and 11ac WiFi isn't enough storage and bandwidth to make this easy, I would be OK if it only kept the last GB of the camera roll. Of cours…
TouchID is not stored in the cloud.
I hope FaceID isn't either.

This would be less beneficial IMHO on a phone. My wife sometimes uses my phone, but she always has her own nearby. when she is using it, its for a quick, specific reason.
But I could really see this on an iPad. iPad's are often shared around a household, this would be amazing for that. Macs themselves would also apply here.

Then it would be a "mePhone" and conflict with their branding. :)
On a more serious note, the most I think we'll ever see from them is limited web browsing as a guest user.

#995I cannot get around the missing headphone jack. My headphones cost more than this new iPhone :(
How's that floppy drive working out for ya?
Re: iPhone X
#996I unlock my phone in my pocket with Touch ID all the time - ready to go and on the home screen by the time I've flipped it around in my hand. Feels like a straight downgrade in usability. also, some engineer at apple had to continuously grow a beard to test this
I remember when I first had this feature available on my android phone, like 2 or 3 phones ago, and quickly turned it off. Fingerprint FTW
The system Apple is using is leaps and bounds better than whatever 2d sensor was in that old Android phone
Re: iPhone X
#997These keynotes were magical before leakers leaked everything. I'm wondering if Apple should scrap these and aim for smaller, unplanned releases instead. As far as this phone goes, I am really excited to see how it stacks up to the Galaxy S8. Face ID is incredibly enticing, but Samsung Pay is much more universal. The only thing that is making me want to retreat back to an iPhone is its inferior Bluetooth audio quality…
The majority of these leaks came from Apple itself.
It would seem there are people ignorant on the subject. The majority of the leaks came from firmware prematurely release from Apple. A second leak was from iOS 11 GA download links.
Re: iPhone X
#998I'm pretty impressed and blown away honestly that Apple chose to support Qi wireless charging over coming up with some proprietary nonsense. This might be the killer feature that finally gets me to upgrade.
I am guessing this had something to do with Steve Jobs no longer being there. More freedom for choosing technologies.
Would genuinely love to know the reasoning behind the negative votes. Steve's departure has certainly changed the company in the past.

Sharing phones seems like an absolutely terrible idea. It goes against the simplicity and good design that Apple pursue. I can think of tons of problems with this: being out of signal; having biometric data in cloud; running face matching across huge databases where false positives are extremely likely; interrupted signal where things are corrupt; designing efficient caching algorithms; sharing onboard storage with m…
Who said anything about biometric data in the cloud? This doesn't need to work the same way the first time you see a device as it will work the second time you see it, after having fully authenticated the first time.
So, it doesn't have to alter the security attack surface or really even a major change in the secure element.
Someone from Apple should just reach out, the design is not simple but it's absolutely workable.

"I'm still waiting for the ability to add multiple users."
One shared device with multiple profiles for your family members VERSUS One device each for each family member
To understand how Apple chooses to prioritise, simply ask the question - "Which option makes more money?"
