                    @ColstonAUS: I dont have. Even a costco worker like me think 1k phone is affordable. Really the aus average income is around 75 or 80k so mathmaticly is not too bad

                      @Bryanalves: Average income is meaningless, people who earn millions a year just offset the majority that have average incomes. Realistically working class families with mortgages and mouths to feed barely making it by would disagree that 1k is affordable for an extremely fragile mobile phone that is in essence a luxury item

                        And the fact the commentor that i initially replied to changed his comment about 1k phone being not affordable means he realised his statement is exaggerated. Now he just said its not a good price which i agree.

              @tightm8: Bad analogy. The supercar has features and performance vastly different from the cheap car. In this case the phones have similar features and performance yet a drastically different price. Apple still has advantages compared to Android (stability, support, integration) but the prices are becoming ridiculous.

            @srhardy: No wireless charge, no IP rating, no quad-HD display, it's not close to 99% as good, maybe if you use you phone once a day, but even still you can easily tell the difference in build, smoothness, camera quality, etc.

            Not saying A20 is bad, but it's very obviously a budget phone and great value for the price, if you actually care about camera quality, a flagship is obviously going to be leagues better. All these missing features add up especially when this is something you use every day.

          I remember when iPhone removed the headphone jack (I wasn't happy either) but for months and months android lovers mocked it, then what do you know… Samsung and many android brethren followed suit.. that surely wasn't mentioned.

          Let's just cut this bs, and call it what it is.

          These are phones, just like cars, they all mostly do the same thing, but have a badge and those manufacturing them can do whatever the f''k they want in terms of pricing and positioning, nobody is holding a gun to your head to buy it. If you want a cheap Hyundai (Xiaomi) go nuts, if you want an overpriced Aston Martin (iPhone), enjoy your high yield investment.

            @tightm8: Um you mean one model of about 8 or 9 different models of Samsungs released this year removed the headphone jack? Probably why it wasn't mentioned very much. Samsung and Apple are hardly comparable, Apple haven't innovated in design for almost 3 years yet still outprice every other phone manufacturer.

              @ColstonAUS: I think these analogies of iPhone= lambo/ferrari are a bit far fetched. Iphone hardly has such a signigicant lead on Android. Iphone = top of the range Volkswagon and top of the range Android= optioned out Toyota are a bit closer to the truth.

                @Danstar: Put a Galaxy S8+ next to an S10+ or a Note 8 next to a Note 10, just on visuals alone they are significantly different, not to mention the hardware, software and added features. Apple make incremental changes that barely warrant an upgrade and charge through the roof for it

                  @ColstonAUS: You're being silly. I can say the same thing about an iPhone, put an iPhone 7 next to a 10, the changes are massive (especially hardware). Comparing phones that are 3 generations apart for Samsung but saying iPhone only makes incremental changes is just stupid.

          Really irritates me Apple's attitude to hardware and pricing structure is so awful. I'd absolutely buy an iPhone if there was something reasonable for around $700.

          Their tech's pretty great (iirc their chip flogs Qualcomm and Samsung's) and the approach to software is pretty pro consumer.

        • Trishool on 05/09/2019 - 14:58

          Samsungs and Pixels have also increased in their resale value over the years, mainly because of the initial outlay. This has also been met with iPhones not holding that well over the years, as there are now more iPhone models released each year, and more competition in the smartphone space where Android build quality, support and features have continued to improve.

          The iph7 would be supported and receive software+security updates until 2021 as history would dictate though. I'm not sure the same thing can be said about the Galaxy 7 which came out the same year.
          I cannot argue though, the A70 looks great. A sibling bought one for $640 and it's amazing how Samsung was able to make the notch that small.

        2yr warranty vs maybe a warranty.

        There isn’t much difference between the two, spec wise.

        I’d buy this over a secondhand xs. You may found out that previous owner has replaced the screen with non genuine or maybe there is water damage etc.

          Speaking of buying used, is it possible for Apple to run diagnostics and catch those issues

          • cchhiillyy on 11/09/2019 - 22:42

            @kehuehue: Internal indicators for water damage can be seen by apple, not fully sure about the screen part tho, most likely yes.

        May even find a brand new one at that price, after eBay code.

          Found one easy enough for ~$1120 for a new iphX from a reputable seller(mobileciti) with an eBay plus code. This was last month and since then I noticed they've started to go out of stock on reputable stores selling it at those prices.

            @Chickfilo: u mean X or XS?

            • Chickfilo on 05/09/2019 - 23:51

              @hawkeye93: That was the X. All the XS were over $1310 even after cashback. As said, these were off the reputable sellers in eBay selling brand new Australian stock phones (mobileciti, allphones etc.)

      iPhone XS and somewhat surprisingly, the XR, both have significant camera improvements over the X.

      I would personally go with the XR over the X purely based on the faster processor and better camera. I think it’s a reasonable trade off (the LCD screen is fine. My main gripe is the bigger bezels on the XR).

        having owned both for 12 months or so each, id comfortably have the X over the XR - only stuck with the XR as i got a work phone.

        The screen on the XR is below par when placed near the oled screens.
        Dual Camera on the X is better than the XR.
        The XR does have the best battery though.

          I was looking at them side by side earlier this week and could hardly see a difference.

              They were in a display cabinet.

              Are they cheaper there?

            @jv: I agree! Several times I've done the same, held them side by side. Damned if I can see a difference.

            @jv: Agreed. I played with an XR at the apple store thinking it was the XS. Screens are same same but a little different in size

        • entropysbane on 05/09/2019 - 19:09

          I have the XR and the XS Max in my family ( I still have the 7)
          Side by side the XS max looks better, but not that much better it matters on a phone.
          They are both amazingly powerful compared with my 7 though.
          If I had over a phone righ now! It wold be the XR while cursing I couldn’t wait a fortnight.

      Apple is known for it's after sales service and that's why holding a brand value in this competitive market.

      Missus is using 4 years old iPhone 6Plus and it had some performance issues.. Simply called up apple service center and the person was more than happy to troubleshoot the issue without any hesitation.. The issue is resolved over the phone..

      My personal experience says "NO DOWNSIDE" unless you are not concerned about pricing.
