A new tactics for China and other Asia-Pacific regions are 100-200$ off on pre-booking + some gift hampers to spend in App store. As always Apple Tax will be high as gaming laptops with RTX GPUs.hmscott likes this. -
The truth is, they are just to damn expensive now. End of story. Even with carrier subsidies the 256gb Xr is over 600 bucks up front here. That is mental. I do really like the Xr more than I thought I would. But, in no way am I paying 600 bucks plus up front for a phone. I paid Nothing up front and no subsidies cost on my contract for our iPhone 8s and 6s's. My wife's employer has great deals on devices for us. We pay nothing for them over two years, they take the costs in their contract with Telus and we own the phones outright after two years. So in reality, we get new devices every two years, for less monthly payment than the BYOD plans.

You won't accept iPhones even if Tim Cook gifts you 3000$ 512GB iPhone for your entire family since none of them can wants the 3000$ phone and he just needs to clear the inventory?
I am just getting 3.5G here almost full signal since 6 months ago otherwise I don't even get 2G. We do get 4G but it maxes out at 40-50Mbps for downloads and uploads are measly 1Mb. On 3G, I get 18-20Mb downloads and 6-8Mb upload speeds. 5G rollout might be delayed here..
