Can't wait for idiots to camp out for this, considering how little of an improvement it's going to end up being over the 6/6+.

Imo, smartphone technology overall has plateued pretty hard since Q2 2014ish. The market being saturated by annual refreshes doesn't help, either. Apple will of course not be severely impacted by either of these things. Reason being, the venn diagram that has Apple customers paired with a group of consumers that buys things based on objective 'need'/has ever done a price/performance calculation has almost 0 overlap.

Enjoy your overpriced status symbol designed by plutocrats and assembled by wage slaves, OP.

serious (non-rhetorical) question: is there a single brand/model of consumer electronics products NOT assembled by wage slaves in shithole working conditions in china or somewhere even worse? genuinely curious if apple is a particularly bad offender or if they just get blamed for the same poo poo everyone does

Pretty much the latter, but their margins are way higher, so it's mostly just nerds like me jealous at their success.

Not at all, a majority of electronics has gone overseas to China or Taiwan due to cheaper labor costs.

Also western companies have made massive capital investments in the above locations instead of at home.
