Mahoning posted:Almost no one actually plugs their phones directly into their computer anymore. Why would they factor that into what they pack into the box with the phone? It would've been good because it would allow for fast charging out of the box (and made USB c to lightning cables more prevalent and affordable, which is all I care about)

I guess they could at least include a cable with a USB-A to USB-C adapter on it.

Given the charger they packed in with the iPhone 7 Plus I’d say charging speed was hardly a priority.

It’s loving astounding in 2017, 3 phone revisions past the first one that could quick charge, the phone still doesn’t come with the appropriate brick for it.

I just love they're about to sell a 1200 dollar phone with the same charging options that came with my SE.

it's also incredibly dumb since they're pushing the one-port usb-c future with the macbooks already. no courage, sad!

arging, expandable storage and costs $275 less. Simply not possible.

He means sides which is actually a good point. The screen would look cooler if it was truly side to side, but there is about the same amount of black border on the X sides as there is in the 7/8.

I never thought they should do top/bottom edge to edge for the same reason when holding in landscape, but when people were mocking up edge to edge for the iPhone X, half the people wanted full edge to edge with ears and half wanted bars. Apple was hosed no matter what they did. The top/bottom black bars on the S8 look silly.

I have an Anker 5 port USB charger with 2A on every port and I was surprised that it does charge my iPhone 6S faster than a 1A charger does

Curious. Couldn't they just have seamlessly integrated TouchID into the rear Apple logo with the X?

Speaking of cases, the worst thing about this update for me is that Apple is selling folio cases for the iPhone now. Gross.
