The Apple iPhone Problem in 2018

2018-09-19
we're usually remembers my password no problem though okay login oh geez come on no no I think all of these will do it yeah what is this crosswalks what am I even looking at are you tired for getting your passwords introducing our sponsor LastPass the leading online password manager securely store multiple passwords and have them automatically entered for you completely hands-free just download the extension or smartphone apps and let LastPass take care of the rest literally LastPass will create its own complex passwords for your accounts and you'll never have to care because they'll be auto filled every time you log in the only password you'll ever have to use ever again is the one you use to sign into your LastPass account click the link below and get started for free today I should begin by disclosing the fact that I've switched periodically in the past between iOS and Android I can appreciate the simple minded approach to such an operating system and that's why I often switch between the two I love iMessage camera quality slim designs overall and a close but coherent ecosystem it's one of the downsides as well of iOS more than that is discussed right here but I want to talk about the latest Apple iPhone releases and which I would choose if I had to choose so the three phones look pretty familiar they all have the notch and they're all sporting a similar screen to body ratio we'll talk more about that as well soon to touch briefly on the notch I have never really been a huge fan of it but I've never outright hated it either I understand the need for the space wouldn't seen in the context of face ID hardware I'm just bothered by the apps that still don't support the indention the specs for all three models - the XS or the 10s depending on how you want to say that the 10s max and 10 are are fairly similar and more representative of a product refresh than anything else they all support the new a 12 ionic chip which relies on the world's first 7 NM your fabrication to hit the market Apple calls it the smallest and the most powerful chip ever in a smartphone it's a bold claim but likely to hold up in many respects the chip packs nearly 7 billion transistors into a mobile package and if the few Geekbench leaks we've seen are true we're looking at a roughly 15% boost and single core precision something you will notice though not much is really change with respect to multi-core support maybe a small bump though it is very likely Apple sacrificed much of this to benefit efficiency and battery longevity this will still make the a12 Bionic chip the fastest mobile chip to date and I mean to be completely honest iOS overhead is pretty light by comparison so even if this wasn't the case you'd probably be alright the iPhone 10 are ships with three gigs of RAM and most users won't notice it's been shorted a gig more than it's expensive counterparts though it's worth noting that most phones with a 700 plus a US dollar price tag support at least four gigs it's more or less just good practice the 10r also has a lower screen resolution than that of the 10s and 10's max at 1792 by 828 pixels it's more on par with the iPhone se form factor if you're already used to higher density displays to keep things short and sweet it's something you will notice don't let anyone tell you otherwise also is it just me or are these thick bezels ugly don't get me wrong I love the high screen to body ratio maybe not the notch but you know what I mean the border just wraps all the way around the screen as much thicker then it's XS and Max counterparts sure it may be easier to hold and prevent miss clicks but it just doesn't look very classy in my opinion I'd much prefer thin top and bottom Chin's like I have on the LGB 30 that's just a personal thing the tenor doesn't even come with 3d touch assuming you've cared about that in the first place these compromises reflect on the phone's prices but we'll talk more about this later in the video so to sum up this launched the iPhone 10 S is expensive and lacking in true upgrades in my opinion similar to the iPhone 6s and eight launches though performance jumps were notably higher with those older models and I understand that the a12 chip is a feat in them itself but for asking prices as high as $1,500 with Apple Care included wouldn't you be more comfortable with the device you're currently running that is assuming you're not using a device it's 5 or 6 years old and really I mean these Geekbench scores are to be taken with a grain of salt they don't always reflect perfectly with real-world use either but the chip deemed the most powerful chip ever in a smartphone should honestly be expected to bring more to the table this assumption casts a grim shadow over the entire launch and makes the prices even more difficult to justify and that begs the question which of these models is most worth it definitely not the 10s the max has a great deal of real estate to work with but it costs more than many gaming desktops and laptops the cheapest of the models of 10r is packed full of subtle compromises but is still probably the best option if you're dying for an upgrade consider potential iPhone 10 price drops in the future as well though this is Apple we're talking about and as someone who stopped buying iPhones after the 7 release I'd feel more comfortable with one of these just because I'm not used to spending 1200 + USD on the phone folks still running iPhone 6s or SD you should probably consider moving up a few tiers if their batteries are barely holding up and that's usually the case and while I normally recommend used markets for budget-conscious fires Apple products retain their original price is better than Android alternatives so if I had to sum this one up I'd say most iPhone users are actually in a bind right now if you're currently sporting an iPhone 10 it makes absolutely no sense to upgrade point-blank even if you make a case for the new camera system which looks arguably similar to the pixel twos Apple still doesn't make up for the 1k asking price that's assuming you want the base model the original 10 was unique in many respects its price was - but that's what people use to justify right it was a totally new design for a phone that many people copied afterwards today we've got the exact same frame the exact same dimensions a screen with marginally better contrast more defined stereo speaker range still no headphone jack we'll probably never see this again from Apple and still super expensive maybe if you need dual sim support you could make a case but for now the true gem in my opinion is the iPhone 10 our look I know it's still an expensive phone $800 is not small for most of us but when seen in the context of the Apple ecosystem assuming you have still an Apple watch maybe an iMac or a MacBook Pro it's a viable upgrade pass chances are you paid something similar already for the phone you're currently sporting whether it's up front or in a contract so if it's a 6 success or even a 7 you may even be able to sell that to bring the cost closer to 4 or 500 USD you know the difference they're much more reasonable don't be afraid of selling something on eBay or Craigslist by the way more on that this video right here so if you don't plan on giving your phone to a family member or a friend it's a wasted opportunity to me selling things online is the best way to recoup your initial investment lisa is gonna need to replace her iPhone seven when she finally moves to the states I use horizon and her European model isn't compatible with my plan so the iPhone 10 R is probably the one will buy she also likes the yellow option hits screen maybe low respect but it's battery life makes up for it out lasting even the iPhone 8 plus apparently it seems like the best option for people desiring to stay completely within Apple's ecosystem so again if you're rocking a MacBook or a series watch the 10r makes the most sense from a value perspective if you want to again buy another iPhone at least that's how I see it on paper the new watches by the way look super cool definitely something I'd like to review in the future but as a gear s3 where I can say that the fat gets pretty old pretty fast I haven't even charged mine in several weeks and or rarely use it for anything other than to check the time and they follow up in a dedicated video with respect to that but for now I'd like to hear what you think of the new iPhone launches yay or nay leave a comment down below I'll be sure to check those out I give this video a thumbs up you thought was cool dislike it for the complete opposite feeling totally ok with that you hate everything about life you can also just like it again totally ok with that click that red subscribe button you haven't already consider joining us coming out a channel number if you want to fancy with it and we'll catch you in the next video we're gonna review our TX cards very soon stay tuned I know we're a little behind on that but at benchmarks you guys know benchmark this is science studio thanks for learning with us
