I still have the X. Tried a co workers’ Max with a thin case. Was a struggle getting it in and out of my leg pocket on my carpenter pants.
Glad I’m sticking with my X.
Glad I’m sticking with my X.
I caved...Xs will be here tomorrow
I knew I had to upgrade from my old 4S so I bought an XS,it’s too big !!
Good. I hope you like it. It seems to be a good phone.
My 8 suffered the dreaded logic board failure yesterday I call Apple Support, they said no problem, we’ll replace it for you. I get to the store, they wanted to charge me $100. I refused & ended up walking out with a gold XS because I needed a phone. I called Apple Support, again, once I got back to my office, and they apologized to me & setup an appointment for tomorrow with a manager to repair my device. I’ll be selling the 8...I have trust issues and I just can’t deal with that device in my life anymore lol.
I honestly didn’t really want to upgrade, but my device options are limited since I already have a X. I got back to my desk at 1pm EDT & it’s still in the box. I’m not too excited about it but I won’t get another 8 or even use the one I have once it’s repaired. I feel they tried to get over on me & have probably gotten over on tons of people with this issue. Idek how I missed this one because I would have gotten rid of it a long time ago. Oh well...it is what it is????????????* Guess I’ll finally open up this box
I wanted to make sure y’all can see the time. Been on my desk for over 2 hours in plastic lol.

I upgraded to the xs max coming from a 7plus. I wasn’t planning on upgrading until next year but I caved.
Well I don't know if I should congratulate you or sympathize with you...LOL. Just go ahead and open it...LOL

Thanks for sharing your experience with us, Nikki...and thankfully, it’ll all work out for you with regard to your iPhone 8.
Responding to nikkisharif, I'd like to say a good word for the iPhone 8, based mainly on it's physical appearance. To me, design is really important (which is why I bought a 5S with its gold chamfered frame in the first place). Recently, I got wrapped up in all the XS's tech upgrades, but today I went and looked at the them at Costco, and was really disappointed that the gold steel band does not make it up to the front of the screen. All I could see is the screen's black edge and the gold buttons barely peeking out (pic below). In comparison, the aluminum band on my gold iPhone 8 shows up beautifully, and it's enhanced by a clear case.
Unless I'm missing something, I'm keeping my iPhone 8, and lovin' it once more.

Put a new $29 battery in my 7 Plus so I'm gonna rock it a bit longer for now even though the XS Max is still calling my name.
