Looks like most of the upgrades are with the camera.

Watch the Video and get you information there rather than a bunch of Apple haters here that trash Apple at every opportunity.

The hatred of Apple is just as irrational as the hatred lefties have of Trump.

What car as Apple CarPlay but not Android Auto?

The smarter ones.

Sadly, I can no longer find the old Gizmodo “iProduct” spoof from many years ago. Seems to have been scrubbed from the Internet. Hmmmm...

“What does it mean for a smart phone to be “more powerful”? Makes for a better viewing experience of cat videos or porn?”

Take a look at actual videos that were made by experts. Shot in 4k at 60 fps and then edited on that same phone.

Still photos use AI to actually take several picture when you shoot one then put all those pixels together to make one very cool picture. If you don't need that stuff buy a left over iPhone 7, they are still offering the 7 and 8 at big discounts, the 7 goes for a couple hundred. The iPads are cheaper than ever.

you have to use a case to prevent the screen from breaking at the slightest sneeze.

That is just B$ their screen is the toughest in the business and you know it. I don't even own an iPhone any more, don't need one and neither do most of the complainers here.

The irrational hatred here of all things Apple makes no more sense that the libtard hatred of all things Trump and all with no reason, just hatred. You don't like their products, don't buy the, problem solved. I have Apple products for one reason only, the OS. If I could run their OS on something else then I would and no I don't want a hackintosh to putz with.

I can’t possibly justify a $1,000 phone

Apple still offers the iPhone 7 & 8 at big discount so don't spring for the Pro model unless you need to film and edit 4k videos or slow motion stuff at 4k.

Well, I've dropped dozens of different phones dozens of times, and the only one that broke the screen was an iPhone 6. Anecdotal, for sure, but it's what my experience is.

I read the info. I don’t hate Apple. I’m typing this from my 10x.

What does it mean for a smart phone to be "more powerful"? Makes for a better viewing experience of cat videos or porn?

Try watching the announcement and you’d know. Faster processor than the already fastest processor in the phone industry, much faster than the already fastest graphics co-processors in the industry as well. Depending on which model iPhone 11, it adds one, four, or five hours more battery life on a charge. The iPhone 11 Pro Max has by far the best screen on any phone with a Super Retina Screen display with by far the brightest at 1200 NITS brightness.

The iPhone XS with the A12 Bionic Processor was already twice as fast as any Android phone on the market and this new iPhone 11 with the A13 Bionic processor is far faster than the A12.

The Apple iPhone 11’s Neural Engine can process at 1 Trillion decisions per second.

That’s what “more powerful” means.

And, no, Apple does not collect data on its customers. You are thinking of Google and Android, MrEdd.

I’m going to an iPhone this time around because my car has Apple CarPlay. Hopefully with the release of this new one I can get a deal on last year’s model, which suits my needs fine.

Check out the iPhone 8 which at $449. That model will fulfill that need. Don’t forget to scroll to the bottom of the Apple.com page and check out their refurbished store (same warranty as brand new — many of them are being just items that have been purchased and returned or excess from bulk purchases that were not put in service) where you can get a good discounted price.

How long is it supported? I’d hope for at least 5 years - as it is the price of a decent laptop.

Generally, iPhones are supported for five to six years. . . But work much longer. They are likely to need new batteries before then. . . After that, they will not accept an operating system upgrade because their hardware is not up to the demands of the new OS.

“check out their refurbished store”

I am hoping for a deal, but I draw the line at a used cell phone. I don’t even like to hold someone I know’s phone, much less one from lord knows who. The iPhone 8 is a contender, thanks.

2. Apple, made in Communist China with God only knows how many embedded back doors? No thanks!!!!!

Uh, none? Apple is firmly in control of manufacturing and design of the processors and chips. The company that makes the Apple devices is a TAIWAN company, unlike most of the Android phone, which I hate to burst your bubble, ARE ALSO MADE IN CHINA, including the vast majority of lower end Samsung and LG phones. Back doors HAVE been found in many Android devices and actual software that reports back to the Red Chinese Army. Not a single one has ever been found on an Apple product. In China, Apple has to abide by the Chinese laws where Chinese citizens are concerned. . . But not anywhere else. Not even a nice try, newfreep. Apple is not in the business of selling its customer’s privacy to the highest bidder.

You third point I can’t argue. He did say that. He’s delusional there. . . But Microsoft and Google (Android) have made larger donations to the LBGQTand the rest of the Alphabet crowd than has Apple. So you have to pick your poison in Silicon Valley. . .

My current iPhone X battery went tits up and was only 2 years old. $100 service charge. Not happy camper.

Any Lithium Oxide battery will fail after ~600-700 charge cycles. It’s the nature of the beast. Two years is approximately 730 charge cycles. You could have changed that battery yourself for about $20.
