10 Reasons why not buy iPhone X - 2018

Now everyone is familiar with the 10th anniversary iPhone - X a.k.a iPhone 10. Apple  showed it as a "revolutionary, extraordinary, best iPhone ever " but on serious note it is not. But due to its huge fan base, or rather, Steve Jobs, fan base the iPhone X is going to be always hanged with stock out of stock board at least for 5-6 months as the bezel-beauty hits the market. 



Buzz about the iPhone X is really high, hardly anyone cares about what iPhone 8 & 8 plus has to offer, which actually is iPhone 7 with improved chip, wireless charging and old water resistance technlogy.

So Apple boys(& girls), you can fill my comment box for the upcoming line.  Apple is not innovating, they are coping. harsh words ? right!
but actually they are not. Except for the back camera design and 4k at 60fps camera hardly any feature is innovated by APPLE, you say Augmented reality? scroll down to know the truth. 

APPLE lovers comment down atleast 3 major innovations by Apple in iPhone X and stand a chance to win surprising gifts. Before it read the full article, also comment if your point has been proved wrong.

Apple just checks the market, analysis the new innovations in market by various competitors , collect them all and put them in their phone after 2-3 years and call it most innovative thought, costing you your kidney for that eaten Apple logo.

10 reasons not to buy iPhone X


1. Design
                   OK! how I dared saying that ? Its the most innovative one. Sorry to hurt you but ESSENTIAL phone launced way back in may has something similar to offer atleast at front, and that phone is designed by co-founder of Google Andy Rubin. iPhone X display looks much familiar to it with more functionality in that camera area.
And talking about back design thats not at all innovative, please, no! turning camera by 90 degree angle is not innovative.

2. Display
                  5.8" OLED display, com'mon Samsung has been using those since ages. Apple uses a full view OLED screen with 1125 x2 436 pixel and  625 nits of brightness, seriously Apple ?? Note offers almost 1200 nits of Brightness and is far cheaper. And wanna add, Apple is purchasing those screens from Samsung, they are not manufacturing it  themselves.             Buy i Phone X


Do you know the cost of manufacturing the iPhone X ? Stay tuned with this blog, bookmark and follow to get the latest news. Cost price for iPhone X is gonna be revealed in the next article soon.

3. No Touch ID
                        Ditching touch ID for Face ID, is it an innovation? read the next point.

4. Face ID
                 A new level protection to your Apple device with two times less chances to break into your Apple device than touch id. But, it hit on Android ways back, even in entry level handsets like Lenovo A6000. Even Samsung Galaxy 8 and 8+ Samsung Galaxy Note 8 and Note 8+are already equipped with it. OK! Apple has made it secure with IR camera and other hardware, but conclusion can be drawn when it hits the market.

5. Headphone Jack
                                Am still missing that 3.5 mm hole in my iPhone. Why cant I listen to music while charging. Air pods? connector ?? I hardly remember where I last saw it and why should I keep thinking about my "Apple stuff" than my work?

6. Wireless Charging
                                   Finally hits the Apple with Air Pads, but wait do I get it with my device? No! wait till 2018 and pay extra for it. Apple, but you are already charging a Four digit sum. Wait is it really wireless? see picture below.

7. IP67 (Water and dust resistance)
                                                            in the Era of IP68 Apple bought IP67, is that revolutionary by any means? Samsung has IP68 for its flagship this year.

8. Augmented Reality
                                      The new feature was revealed by Apple, was actually introduced by Sony by its Xperia XZ1 earlier in August. Ok! I admit  no one can develop it in a week but when we say who introduced it in market, thats, Sony. Who knows if Google Pixel 2 and Pixel XL 2 may bring out the same feature, may be better tomorrow(04-10-2017) at its launching event. And remember iPhone X is hitting the market in November

9. Price
              A four digit iPhone and what do I pay for? A bunch of things already present in the market with a box of eaten Apple on it.

Entry level 64 GB unit for  whopping  $999 (INR 89,990) and 256 GB unit for $1149 (INR 120,000) 

Look I  have no hard feeling for Apple, but am just upset with the pricing strategy. What I think is that they have launched iPhone 8 and 8+ just to take a step to make iPhone X more costly. They would have easily launched iPhone X as a stand alone phone this year but no, no, no! they did not used it as a stepping stone to make people sell their kidney as well as an eye for the new face passcode iPhone.

10. Accessories 
                            After saying goodbye to kidney and an eye you may have to sell your blood to buy its accessories for just $100 (INR 6500),  aback cover for $100 just let me know if its good to your pocket.

and, now a not so bonus point for some.

11. Battery
                  It still is 2716mAh of battery, and when it comes to number game it is far behind but for the final output we have to wait till we get to use it.

Analysis

Sometime it feels that Apple is working on the strategy of playing a safe game, letting other companies do the main job and check whether its successful or not if successful Apple adds it in their devices after couple of years and at launching event release it with some new name and to many new adjectives defining the old features at too higher price than their competitors.

Apple please, please care for your fans and customer. Why you want to make them sell of their parts to buy you device, which have lost innovations, only innovation it has is adjectives used at launch event.

Also, Apple is launching it in just 2 colors. It is very much possible that later Apple comes up with some new colors like Red, Gold or Rose Gold for some more cash. What do you say?
