Samsung looks to reinvent Apple's Genius Bar with WeWork 'care centers'
I've been using Apple since 85' and I have had to use the Genius Bar on several occasions. Always excellent help that knows what they're doing, maybe a few min late at most and always leave satisfied. That's why even though I don't always like everything Apple does every piece on computing and phone hardware I buy comes from them.fotoformat said:Quote: "Service is a hassle.

Yeh man, that's partly why Apple is so successful... 'servicing' is required so infrequently, time-outs needn't be factored into schedules!
PS : I started with a Mac in 1992 for magazine publishing and currently use an iMac, iPad, iPhone and Apple Watch 3... and have never needed a single Apple item to be 'serviced' in 25 years.

How to take advantage of the iPhone X's wireless and fast-charging capabilities
I don't expect a wireless charger in the box or anything but to still just stick in the same 5 watt charger that came with the gen 1 iPhone is really pretty cheapo IMO. How much is it to stick a high watt charger in there.

First look: Apple's bionic iPhone X with Face ID
I agree. However I do think they should be packaging with a higher power charger at this point. What they put in is patheticasdasd said:
you mean to wipe out their margins? I mean thats $300 worth of merchandise you want for free.ClarityToSee said:Great early review. Agree about the disappointment of fast OR wireless charger not being included in the box. Would have also been nice to have AirPods included with the purchase as well.

Original iPhone early reviewer Steven Levy heralds iPhone X as kicking off Apple's next de...
I have a issue justifying spending $800 on old tech phone when for a small percentage increase you get the first of the new tech. I was undecided between an iPhone 8 256 and an iPhone X 256. That decided me on going the iPhone X routeschlack said:I think calling it a half way point is a good description. The features are cool and cutting edge. But it will take a few more years to fully realize their potential in software and use cases. Also, at ~$1,500 including decent storage, an Apple case, AppleCare, and tax (6%) it feels more like a tech showcase than a phone that most people will really buy. Even as a huge Apple fan without a budget per se, I don't think I could justify spending more than $800 on a new phone. -
Apple updates iPhone X preorders with improved delivery estimates
Most likely combination of a lot of people double ordered and cancelled one and increased manufacturing. Hoping my Nov 17-24 eventually gets moved up.
