PASADENA (CBSLA) — There was something missing at Pasadena’s Apple Store for the Friday release of the iPhone 8 – a line of eager fans.
Previous releases of the iPhone attracted hundreds of Apple fans waiting in the early morning hours at several stores across Southern California.
The Apple Store has a ticketing system, but that never stopped eager iPhone fans from camping out overnight.
But on Friday morning, all was quiet on Colorado Boulevard, except for employees inside the store handing out tickets.
The iPhone 8 and 8 Plus touts new features like wireless charging, new camera features, and a faster processor.
The lack of a line may be due to more people waiting for the November release of the iPhone X, which has a more drastic redesign.
The updated Apple Watch and Apple TV also went on sale Friday.

Apple just discovered how much people are really willing to pay for an iPhone.
It’s less than $999. but more than $299.
I think that apple shot itself in the “iPhone 8” foot, announcing iPhone X at the same time. I am happy with my iPhone 7 Plus, but will skip the 8 and wait for iPhone X to make it’s debut.
I was among the missing. No, thanks. I’m happy with my old flip phone. If and when I upgrade, it won’t be with rotten Apple.
I heard that in addition to allowing access to the internet, playing videos and music, as well as the ability to play a game or two, the iPhone 8 will allow the user to make phone calls
Don’t buy from these foam party boys. You are paying for their 8 billion dollar mothership.
Speaking of the Apple 8. I just do not want to do facial recognition. When It is time to say good buy to my I Phone 6, I will be looking at the Samsung Galaxy phones. Hopefully the other brands do not force a person to do facial recognition.
