Re: Any Note 8 customers switching to iPhone X
Now why would you even ask that question?? That's a lateral move or a downgrade

What made the company revolutionary? They didn't even invent the iPod or come up with itunes...Me too! I laughed hysterically when he couldn't unlock it on the keynote presentation! He had to do a double-take of it basically. Yes, unfortunately. Unfortunately ever since Steve Jobs died the company is not revolutionary anymore apple is just a status knock off of a lot of Android phones particularly Samsung Galaxy phones. Most if not all the features of the iPhone x are on the Galaxy S8 S8 plus phones. Especially the Note 8. I'm not even trying to sound too biased against Apple but it's hard not to when all of their Futures are duplicated from Android manufacturers. For example when they had the last keynote speech with iOS 11.1 beta and they showed off the present hold for different secondary symbols on the keyboard, android keyboard such as gboard and SwiftKey and basically all Android keyboard have had that feature for years.
They revolutionized the mobile phone industry. When the iPhone first came out, it was less expensive than the Windows Mobile PDA phones, which were most of the only touch screen phones available at that time. Basically it made touch available to the masses in a less clunky interface, and it clicked. It basically signaled the death of keypad based phones.What made the company revolutionary?

The amount of smoke and mirrors surrounding Apple, the benevolent, vs. for example, back in the day, Microsoft, the evil, is why I eat apples and not use them. They are as proprietary as all get out but the fan boys (and girls) will never see it.I don't believe Apple do things better. It's all a matter of preference. They do things to make money. Now that they added wireless charging, you can bet they will come out with a proprietary version. It's that greed I do not like about this company.
Doug, please elaborate. Is it because they can force you to open your phone if they know it's by facial recognition, but you can 'forget' a PIN number?As a criminal defense attorney I strongly advise against clients depending on facial recognition. It's a complex issue but just don't do it.
The short answer is that the 5th Amendment protects you from self-incrimination, allowing you to withhold PIN or password info. Physical features are not consider intellectual property and aren't secured by your cognizant and conscious willpower. Instead, they can be used against you even if unwilling or unconscious.Doug, please elaborate.

Er sorry....but Samsung has overtaken apple in the profit stakes. And what, if you or I sell an old phone or a car, we're not going to hold out for as much as we can get???

Samsung overtook Apple by selling to the lower ends of the market. Not exactly due to flagships.Er sorry....but Samsung has overtaken apple in the profit stakes. And what, if you or I sell an old phone or a car, we're not going to hold out for as much as we can get??? Enjoy capitalism
^^This^^ It replaces religion for a lot of people. I have a feeling nobody has ever thought on their deathbed, "I wish I had that new iPhone." Purchase a phone that helps you do what you want to in life, iPhone or otherwise, and view it as a tool to achieve your goals. Don't worship the device.I really can't understand why everyone is so obsessed with apples new phone..
There were some improvements. I don't like the font changes. But, overall, it's an improvement.I downloaded the new os to my iphone and it's meh....that was one thing I wanted to experience before thinking about buying an expensive phone...if the camera blows everything else away maybe...
