Ah yeah for some reason I thought the white one was white. Maybe give the option to have the sides black to give a uniformed look. Perhaps you get used to it.

Possibly a combo of Tall Poppy Syndrome and them constantly overstating their "magical" devices when they're often just playing catch up and then only going part way there. In many ways they make their own bed and I personally think that they've lost their way a bit. It feels a bit like they're doing things just to be seen to be doing something different. Once upon a time that worked for them (OSX being a good example of this) but now there conflating different with UX and personally I'm not sure it's holding up (ala sticking with lightening and getting rid of headphone socket's).

For over a thousand pictures of her Maj i would expect the thing to be able to withstand a direct nuclear detonation, let alone a bit of a visit to the bottom of the toilet for a few seconds.

I have never gotten my phone wet, ever. If I did, that's what insurance is for.
Well they aren't a huge amount different. Look at the price of the Note 8. The price of the S8 and S8+ are pretty bad.
I bought an S8+, "greatly discounted" and it was Sri £500. The prices of phones is just getting ridiculous.
Wait, i missed the some of it. The iPhone X IS NOT waterproof? Yet I'm assuming the 8 is?
I'm not impressed as I am, especially with that price point. If the monthly cost isn't too much different from current handset I might upgrade but £999 for 64gb... C'mon son

I think I'll wait 12 months for the phone Apple tried but failed to launch this time around, with Touch ID under the screen. Happy to stick with my 7+ - pointless upgrading to the 8+ just to add wireless charging.

You think that's bad - it's between $1500 - $1900 here in Aus.£1,000
Maybe not the s9 but later 2018 flagships should have it,qualcomm's ultrasonic fingerprint technology is much more interesting and practical than Face ID or it's equivalents.

Why on earth do you do that? Just use a desktop app for instagram, I use instapic, export from light room, direct upload to instagram, copy pasta the hash tags from my hash tag file, takes literally 2 button clicks, and a paste command, super easy off a desktop, sending a pic from the desktop, to the phone, only to then have to manually upload it..... Pfff I thought Apple was meant to be easier

This is a really good hands on video.
Didn't know about the Canada thing...considering the phone includes all necessary LTE bands in the States if you are travelling to the USA and want one it's the best place to buy one.

Looks like I'll give this a pass and just buy a new battery for my 6S, it still feels great. There's no chance that I'm going to keep something loose in my pocket that is more expensive than my desktop.

There's no difference in LTE band support between the different models of iPhone 8, 8+ and X.
For each model, there's a North America and China version that supports the various CDMA based technologies and a Rest of World version that doesn't.

Try a bit of foreplay
The benchmarks are in and it blows the Android competition out of the water:
On par with a MacBook Pro and twice as fast as the Samsung S8.
That 24mhz CPU tho

After some deliberation, i'm sticking with my ageing iPhone 6 as I cannot comprehend spending £700 on the 8 let alone £1K for the X. Might even wait to see what Microsoft do with the surface phone.
