I just checked the Apple Store app. It says I can pick up a gold 512 GB XS Max at my local Apple store on Sept 21 if I order it now. That’s really odd seeing how whenever I pre ordered iPhones in the past, if I didn’t order right at midnight on pre sale day, I’d be waiting about a month.

None of the Apple Stores in my area have any of the 512 GB Xs Max available for pick up on Sept 21. There are a lot of Apple Stores in my area. 

I guess availability is spotty. No matter what, I’m sure these phones will be a huge hit, as always. I gotta say though, that new gold color is gorgeous. 

Only with a crystal clear case will the beauty of the gold iPhone shine through.

The problem with clear cases is they always end up turning yellow. I have yet to find one that doesn't do that. 

I’ve had the caudabe clear case on the X since release last year and it is not yellow at all.  Check it out.  It’s thin, and pretty durable and protective. - dropped on concrete a few times.  No, I don’t work for them.

I really hope Disney closes this deal, if for no other reason than to keep Comcast from getting it. Comcast is likely the worst US company there is. 

Totally agree.  

People don’t make as much money in Europe in the US, and they pay more money in taxes, in exchange for education, health care, and retirement.  In the South if France (Nice), the average dual family income is €2000 per month.  So, I’m not surprised if iPhones are not as popular as cheaper androids. 


However, I lived in Monaco, and travelled frequently to Paris and Amsterdam.  In those cities I can’t say I saw any less iPhones than in the Cincinnati, OH (where I am currently living). Certainly in some situations, I only saw iPhone.

 In My opinion, iPhone is definitely a status symbol in Europe.  A luxury good. In the States, most freshman college students have iPhones.   

I guess Samsung’s ad showcasing their ARemoji or whatever joke of a response to Animoji hasn’t worked out for them.  

Samsung has nothing to work with.  

Android phones have cloned the notch in droves.  

People who would switch due to the battery issue would have done so already, no need for an ad to remind them.

And the really funny thing is this shit hasn’t had one iota of effect on Apple sales or customer satisfaction.

It will. Even water bend rocks.

Going with your metaphor, you’ll be long gone before that happens then.  

Seriously, what evidence do you have?
