iPhone X - the real inventor of the all gesture interface!
 
There - you don't need Sailfish anymore :)

Also Qi wireless charging! With a catch ;)

Re: iPhone X - the real inventor of the all gesture interface!
 
what are you saying. IPhone ten is more advance than iPhone 8?

If I got it for the US price it would be a bargin. I don't really want one. But since Jolla refund process is beyond slow I guess I have to live with iPhone for a while.

What's the prices for these phones? $999? Will it have a qwerty slider? Landscape?

Will be confusing with iPhone 9 next year. Maybe they go for iPhone 19.

Edit: WTF? Not even a HW button at a bottom. Boring! I want to go home :D

I think the Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 is prettier than the iPhone X. Plus it has a a bigger screen. Camera, among other things, is not as good. But it is cute! But, honestly, there is nothing out there I really want to buy right now. Maybe I'll buy a new guitar instead!

I vote guitar. That's the obvious choice.

Re: iPhone X - the real inventor of the all gesture interface!
 
second that...for the guitar.
A musical instrument is an ACTUAL investment ...
provides a lifetime of enjoyment and edification..
and has zero depreciation...
only appreciation :D

Get the guitar ...
Find the time to visit..
Bring an amp.
I got mine...
I don't have an extra handy since the downsizing and move to the island chalet...
I'll grab one of my bigger harps ..

https://s26.postimg.org/7u7wwefo9/phoootooo.png

from the time capsule :D
(..I haven't changed much to look at since...especially after visiting the devil at the crossroads...just my hair going quickly white...red-head so it was a given ...especially with my big Five Oh coming in a 3 months......frankly I pin going white on the paces girls put me through ..:D )

we'll route the tunes through gtkgep on our nxx0's and through to the amps..
and we'll make a weekend of it mscion.

after all is said and done you would probably still have money left over after the guitar purchase and a weekend on Gabriola Island ...
Rather than a throw away piece of garbage that phones have become....

Well, if I'm ever in the area I'll be sure to stop by!

While I'm still checking out guitars, so not in the market for a phone, I might get the V30 if I was...

http://www.gsmarena.com/lg_v30-8712.php

Based on specs and unlockable bootloader, I would take the V30 over Mi MIx 2. Same size screen, significantly better camera, micro sd slot and FM radio to boot!

Yeah. Good option,

Then you can build something like this with your old tech. Banjo!

I wish :D I'm probobly the worst banjo player walking the streets of tmo. I'm spending most of my very limited free time on earth in the my kitchen expending my knowledge there. Its makes me relax after crazy days!

Nice, however that kind of BS only applies on the funny double-continent on the other side of da big pond.

Here in euroland we have nice laws that say that consumer items have to last longer than that, and if the fruity guys want to sell their magic boxes here they need to obey our laws. Else they are going to get lightly spanked cross their bottom. :p

endsormeans 2017-09-15 09:19

Re: iPhone X - the real inventor of the all gesture interface!
 
ah yes...
of course ...companies will naturally obey the laws in Europe...
By the way...
How is that whole vehicle emission cover-up going with the car manufacturers there?
:rolleyes:

Re: iPhone X - the real inventor of the all gesture interface!
 
Do Apple have an search and destroy me Button? See what data they have? Selfdestruct Button?

What about TMO? They do operate in Euroland? Do we comply to GDPR ;)

Can customers outside of EU demand to be completely removed from Jolla servers if they don't refund before new year?

I wish apple would do a discount for repeat customers! :mad:

Re: iPhone X - the real inventor of the all gesture interface!
 
It's the repeat customers that are most keen to spend lots of money on a new blinky. Why should a company whose whole purpose is not doing good to humankind (despite trying to look that way) but earning big money refuse to milk their cow?

endsormeans 2017-10-03 12:01

Re: iPhone X - the real inventor of the all gesture interface!
 
THAT ...Amboss...
was one of the best posts ever...
a true Emeril moment.
BAM!
:D


I just gotta add this Amboss...
it's begging for it...

@Dave

More importantly, does it have Super Cow Powers?

Re: iPhone X - the real inventor of the all gesture interface!
 
I have to say I'm not sure what you asking? So I answer: "Yes"

Sorry. I mean "No".

"No" is my final answer.

What's the question?
