I said I wasn't going to but I just couldn't resist, just confirmed my preorder for the 256gb iPhone 8 space grey.
I thought when I pre ordered it said ship day was the 22nd. On my phone call to Verizon they said ship day is the 29th but that is could still ship by the 22nd. I guess I will find out.


HMM their website still says deliver by 9/22

I'm just not too fond of the Space grey and silver though. I feel they should have offered a jet black option.

It appears in the photos that the Polished Surgical Stainless Steel Space Gray color is very close to the Jet Black color. I think it's going to very attractive. I can barely wait to see one in person.

If I get one, it will be the X. But, I believe I am just going to wait until next year. Just bought a truck earlier this year, and would like to get it paid down some.

I’m now tempted to get the 8.. I don’t think the preorder for the X will go smoothly.. I might have to wait until early 2018 before it’s widely available.

I just ordered a Space Grey 256GB iPhone 8, for pickup at the Apple Store Sept. 22. My business phone will be replaced with this one & I’ll still be getting the X for the primary line.

I'll be coming back to Apple after a a sabbatical with Android. My dislikes were adding up to the point I ditched Apple. But then Android. They have more promise than what they deliver. So I'm gladly back in the fold with a Black 8 Plus. The X seems like they are taking too much of a leap for me at this time. Will see how it pans out and maybe pick one up next year.

I've owned every iPhone made. It was my sole device until the 6s. I got bored with Apple and the inability to do a lot of things Android could do. Apple has chipped away at a lot of things I wanted to the point that I can't stick with Android. It's never smooth, keyboards are not close to the level of the stock apple keyboard. Even the fan favorite alternates have horrible spell check and often cannot find the simplest of words. Its a lot of things but I'm finally at the point a simplified approach is more appreciated than constant tinkering and always feeling like I'm in a never ending beta.
