Points well taken. I considered that about the most updates. I would say, that 
unless the 8 would be half or less than, say, an XR, then it would be probably 
a better investment to go to an XR. Then, who knows what is coming up. This 
fall should be interesting. 

Best regards,

Carolyn

Subject: Re: Phone choices.

My general advice is to get the most recent iphone you can afford so you will 
have as many iOS updates as possible.  In going for an 8, you sacrifice face ID 
found on the X series.  A rumor circulating is that Apple plans a phone either 
in 2019 or 2020 that will have both face ID and a fingerprint sensor.
