You don’t need a gear like gadget. . . it does it now with just the iPhone in the real world on the screen. Strangely, the iPhone 8 is faster than the more expensive iPhone X.

I saw a remote for $89 at Costco for the Apple phone yesterday at the Pentagon City location - you may be right.

As for a 50% faster chip, how does that extra cost translate into value for a guy who utilizes the phone basically for calls, text messages, and internet? Now that is the true consumer benchmark;)
