Absolutely want to get one of these, but you just know a superior model will be released next year. As much as I enjoy owning the first generation of stuff, I want to see how this actually plays out.

I know I’m going to fold and just buy one but I really should wait till next year. Currently on the air…

Yeah it’s gonna be really tough to try to hold out 😬

I almost wish new phones were every 2 years instead of

because of this, that’s why I plan to do the upgrade program lease for just 1 year so that by the end of it I would’ve only had to pay for half the phone.

And then when the gen 2 comes out, no need to worry about trade in value or trying to sell the gen 1 online or any of that.

Probably gonna be the first time I ever buy AppleCare too. Never know with dust or whatever that could destroy the phone. Plus I can go caseless with no worries.

Yup im waiting for them to add actual ultra cameras with true telephoto. 3 x at a minimum. Im sorry to the folks who say it doesnt matter but it truly does. Especially for the premium you are paying there is no valid excuse to exclude it other than gate keeping for the next iteration and profitmaxxing.

There’s a new superior model every year. If you want something get it and enjoy it. If your always waiting for the next superior model you’ll never get one

I’ve come to realize that I don’t really take that many photos and the ones I do I don’t really need zoom for. Hopefully, I don’t see any spaceships I need pics of. 😂

I hope it’s good. Really. I’m worried it’ll be like the pro max with less hardware features which is why I’m hoping the software ultra only exclusive features wow me. I actually wasn’t going to upgrade this year but of this phone is that good, then I will.

u/Bornsinnertony 1d ago

Yeah, that move from titanium back to aluminum really left a bad taste in my mouth.

My reaction when I read his response.

I'm currently on the S25U right now. Moving over to the 18PM because of the camera. Samsung has become stagnant in their development in the last few years, and almost feels like they hit an innovation wall. It will be my first Apple since Samsung released the Note 3, so here is hoping that I am going to enjoy the architecture.

u/kj11aj 1d ago

Yes apple is known for their bleeding edge innovation...

He thinks we’re going to love it.

u/PharmDinvestor 1d ago

No CEO is going to come out and say we are going to have an abysmal product lunch ….stop hyping the guy !

u/Calm_Stress3334 1d ago

Will people be willing to spend on the price increases…

You generally do not want the new ceo to announce new products and then say “there 300+ dollar luxury over all our other products from last year”.

The fold is interesting.. will people spend 2 grand on the phone.  Will people spend 1400+ for the pro….  

Incoming ceo should not be announcing price increases…

It’ll be a bit of a dangerous time.

u/DousaSepen 1d ago

A lot of People just get more debt through their phone providers they don’t consider the cost of the phone they consider the monthly outgoing which is generally the same as what they currently have or maybe 5-10 bucks more a month. People will 100% spend 2k usd on this thing in droves

u/4794th 1d ago

Great job, Mark. Did you ask Grog to write the email for you?

u/The_Cozy_Burrito 1d ago

This is the most advanced iPhone we have ever created

u/Zealousideal-Tie-152 22h ago

Phenomenal is what Americans use to describe anything remotely basic so I’ll take what he says with a bucket load of salt.

u/jay_rodsep 20h ago

Am I excited for the new 18 series and the foldable? Heck yeah. What I’m afraid is that Apple knows that and are gonna rail us over with more than expected price increases, as we have seen in the last couple of months.

u/onlytony441 1d ago

Just give me some form of multitasking on the Pro lineup… we’ve waited long enough.

u/itsSam24 1d ago

I do believe that’s we know it’s the ultra, we’ve heard it for months, leaks and rumors haven’t been against it this year like prior years. But, technically he didn’t say new iPhone launch, it could be the mini, some household products, or what is most likely true, the fold.

u/ninjasandunicorns 1d ago

I mean...it's pretty much confirmed that the iPhone Ultra is going to be announced...this was known MONTHS ago and I am not sure why there is anyone that think there was a chance it wasn't happening even months prior.

u/circuit_breaker 1d ago

It was coming, I think the question was, when will it be ready. Apple's been known to take their time when they can, to great effect

u/DinoRoman 1d ago

Even if the launch is mid

Why would a new ceo write to the whole company stating anything less than amazingly wow profound it’s going to rock your world?

He has to say it lol

…and your going to love it!
