Reports Suggest iPhone X Production Could End This Summer

Apple is planning to cancel the iPhone X, according to a report by AppleInsider. As written in a “research note” obtained by the site, renowned KGI Securities’ analyst Ming-Chi Kuo says that production of the iPhone X will end this summer.

Despite pre-orders for the model selling out immediately, Kuo says that the decision to cancel the phone is based on poor sales in China.

Kuo puts this down to the controversial “notch” which is seen as using too much screen space, with many Chinese consumers opting for the cheaper iPhone 8 Plus model.

This is the first time since the 5C in 2014 that Apple has discontinued a phone after one generation, however, iPhone X fans don’t need to get too upset, as 2018 will see three iPhone X-inspired designs be released.

Apple plans to release a second-generation 5.8-inch iPhone X, a 6.5-inch iPhone X Plus and an even cheaper 6.1-inch iPhone SE that will retail for approximately “$650-750” and include Face ID.

:mjlol: I've seen these phones in the wild and even though they have oled screens and the ugly ass notch not withstanding, its still not fukking with the Note 8 and Galaxy 8 screens.


:mjlol: that’s like comparing a Toyota to a BMW. Delusional ass android users lol.

As for the topic, I the people have spoken. I phone users pay a premium for our experience and If we aren’t pleased with a certain feature we show it with our wallets. China just did it and we’re getting new designs.

Why is that
I just dont enjoy apple products, I left them around 5 or 6 years ago, recently had a S8 decided Id make a jump back over to iOS since everyone at work was on one got the Iphone X and it just feels like a lesser version of the S8.


In a nutshell it wasn't worth the switch or the money for me personally....

:mjlol:I’m an iPhone user only because I prefer iOS over android. However outside of the os the iPhone is inferior to the top of line Samsung phones out now. Anyone saying anything different is a mindless stan.

But if I had to upgrade and choose between the X and the note 8, I would choose the Note without even thinking about.

:wow: if this is true.

:banderas: if this really means they figured out how to implement the under screen face ID technology by the next release in September/October.

For everyone's sake (Android/iOS stans, fans, and supporters), I hope we eventually see a renaissance of innovation for all platforms.
