Re: question about the iPhone X

[Arlene]

Wayne, We've got t-mobile, so far, so good. Was your t-mobile experience 
something to watch out for? With all you said I could understand why you 
went with the 7 plus. It never hurts to ask someone what made their 
decision, because    of all these informative details and points that you 
wouldn't know unless you were shopping around.  Thank you.

Arlene,
Largely I went with the 7 Plus because of cost; the iPhone X is around
$1,000 for the base model. However, there in general were not any real
big feature draws for me, the new animations were not appealing, and
seemed more like a waste and fluff to me; the wireless charging
sounded nice, but the fact that Apple did not include a wireless
charger in the box with the X was a big downer; and, the storage.
iPhone X comes in 64 and 256 gig sizes. I have a 128 gig phone, and I
wanted to hang onto that storage size for a bit longer. 128 is more
than enough for me, and 256 seemed like it would be too much. In
short, I couldn't justify the upgrade to the X. When I got the 7 Plus,
the big advantage for me personally was that my wife and I switched US
carriers from T-Mobile to AT&T. We were not satisfied with our
T-Mobile services, especially last summer, and were more than ready to
switch. AT&T may cost more, but you get what you pay for. One other
minor reason for the 7 Plus is it still has the touch ID sensor. Touch
ID strikes me as being lots more reliable than Face ID, from what I've
heard from others. Yes, I know the 8 and 8 Plus have Touch ID, but see
my comments earlier on the wireless charging issue. Granted, Apple can
do what they want and charge what they want, but not including a
wireless charger with the phone is like not including a wired charger
with the phone; if they did that and charged people for the
accessories then there would be lots of unhappy and angry customers.

Wayne, I'm just wondering what made your decision, about not going withthe

the x and instead going with the 7 plus What are  some things that you 
like

about the 7 plus? I know of a number of people that have either the 7 and

the 7 plus and they all are very happy  with their phones.  It would be

interesting to know your thoughts. The se phones are our first iphones 
that

we recently upgraded my t-mobile account from 2 samsung t-199  button

phones.  Amoungst so many other things about our phones, and learning so

much now, We do love the size of the se phones.  We have looked at  so far

the 7 and also I think it was the 6s. As we get too we'll check out some 
of

the other iphones now that we have more an understanding about them.

I've started seeing rumors on YouTube that the iPhone X will stop

production in early summer due to low demand. Time will tell, and

Apple will reveal more at their WWDC event in June and later the fall

press event when they reveal the new iPhone/iOS versions and features.

I was ready for a new phone last summer, but waited for the event on

the new phone last fall, and decided the new phones weren't for me. I

ended up getting a 7 Plus, which I am very happy with.

Unless you absolutely need a new phone now I would absolutely wait until

this fall to see what Apple is offering. If anything the iPhone X will

release and the next and as I said, anybody who doesn't need a phone

because

maybe trhe old one quit completely or it was stolen or lost or something

like that you might as well wait.

That's good to know, and as far as the home  button is concerned, is it

just

like tapping anywhere else on the screen? While we can't afford the x
now,

we'd like to see how it is the next time we go to the store.

I have an iPhone X, and the lack of home button was a problem that took7

seconds to be fixed. More problems with the iPhone X?

No, no accessibility problems, no any other problem.
