Not a chance.

Why can’t we get the monthly payment scheme in Ireland?

DubDJ

Irish price is €1,179 starting price haha. Not a chance of the same.

No. The dollar price is pre sales tax, and there is always an additional bump for Euro pricing.

Doubt ya Deridre girl.

No the $999 is usually the price without state sales tax in the US.

I just hope iOS 13 comes out earlier than iPadOS. It would have to to ship with the new iPhone.

So much fun Tim. So many videos.

That 5th Ave store ceiling was seriously low! Defo needed that lift!

They cant get a bank to finance it! One of the pre requisites is the consumer pays 0% interest over the first 12 months. Apple cant find anyone to sign up to that. Irish banks like to ride the consumer more than apple does would you believe.

Well in the past the new iOS is out the week after an event like this.

Marty Bird

Is the 128GB config back with the 11pro ?

This is like an Oscar speech.

Yeah that's what I was thinking. Usually earlier than the launch to avoid overload.

Who else would bother even mentioning a bloody store front and including a person to speak at a media event about it. It's a store !

IamMetaldave

No “one more thing” ? So much for all that talk...

UNless you buy in a tax free state like Delaware.

yeah, different rates in various states, some don't have a sales tax for example... Delaware is one I can think of.

True true.. but to be fair when it first opened it was pretty cool, with glass box entrance / glass staircase.

Well I'm just going on previous iOS versions.

Currently using the Razer Phone 2, thinking about the iPhone 8 for the smaller form factor and seeing what iOS is like (not sure I want to give up the 120hz screen though).

iPhone 8 is from the Stone age in comparison, I'm using a one plus 7 pro with a 90hz screen. Battery is amazing and the camera is very good. The pop up one at the front is pretty neat.
My Razer 2 is gone for repair.
Going back to a 60hz on an iPhone will be feel very slow to use compared to the razer.

DubDJ

A very meh event as expected. I know there'll be people in here complaining because they expected a foldable iPhone with a 240Hz 4k display but it's kinda good news for me as I won't feel the need to upgrade again this year. 

Highlights were the Apple TV and Arcade prices. I liked the look of those shows and glad to get to watch them for cheap enough.

Itssoeasy

I find it weird that there was no mention of iOS13 at all. For those who have been using the different betas of it, are there major issues that will need to be fixed ?

Hogzy

There were very strong rumours that the iPhone 11 Pro was gonna start at 128gb. Surprised that wasnt announced. Nearly every flagship starts at that these days. Christ Apple just lag behind on everything now!

ablelocks

ah balls. I was hoping the watch 4 would be reduced in price, but it's been dropped and series 3 had a price cut to €239.

what chances the irish store will have refurbed 4s over the next couple of weeks?

Just checked the store prices for the Pro.

Mad altogether. Who would pay up to €1600 for one of those?

I’m on 13.1 and it’s grand. Occasional app crash but.. no major complaints. I’m used to it now, so the new buzz is gone. Dominos app doesn’t work properly

Xr is 729 here. Could be a good deal on contract.

They did the same before if i remember correctly. The series 2 disappeared.
