Cameras cameras cameras. Cameras everywhere. Have they announced that I can use the portrait mode to take pictures of my dogs? Because I don't take pictures of humans. I take pictures of my dogs, and would like to have a use for portrait mode.
I thought they had, but could be mistaken.
The Xs can do portrait mode of objects, the Xr can’t. Although supposedly there are some 3rd party photo apps that let you do it.
Pretty impressive the presentation with the new cameras. I'm definitely excited to get the new Pro Max. That preorder time for us users on the west coast, yikes! Hopefully I won't sleep through my alarm.

They literally did announce you can use Portrait Mode on your dog, with a photo and everything.
Pretty much expected this.... nothing exciting......sort of like a lame duck year until 5G arrives. Will keep my iPhone XS Max for another year.
If you're expecting annual upgrades to be riveting you'll likely be disappointed for life. Normal people don't upgrade every year, so it's no surprise the updates are the usual 50% processor improvements, camera improvements, etc. You just got an awesome phone last year, so no tears for you.
5G, when it arrives, just means faster loading web pages when not on wifi. Big whoop.
Looks like Apple is taking iPhone X trade-ins at a value of $400 (bigger capacity I assume). Will have to see what 64gb is valued for. Not bad tho compared to 64gb model here:
Gazelle: $246 eBay avg: $337 (before fees)
...plus with Apple trade in you don't need to worry about boxes, cables, cosmetic wear, fees, etc.
This might be one of the main reasons I might consider doing the upgrade this go around, maximize the trade-in / resell potential value of my X. And as you mentioned, the no hassle process as well.

Found it interesting though that Apple touts the video stabilisation on its new phone and yet the clip was shot with phone mounted to huge dolly...
