I haven't noticed much difference between this and the iPhone 6+ I was coming from other than OLED and home button.

TBH, it's not worth the price. But oh well...

twitchyzero 11-18-2017 01:00 AM

ofc you're not gonna see much difference in the average app
you have the leverage the hardware....ie. AR, 4k60, portrait lighting...and dare i say it..animojis

I used the 6S and 7 for the past two years. Earlier this year, I tried the S8 for a month and going back to my 7 felt like a major downgrade overall in terms of overall design. So going from the 7 to an X, I personally love the new design and don't mind paying more even if I don't necessarily need or take advantage of functions exclusive to it.

how many of you decide to return the iphone x and get the 8 plus?

punkwax 11-18-2017 01:18 PM

Just grabbed an 8 for $30 on a new 2 year plan. Wish the 8+ wasn’t so big or would’ve spent a little more for it.

Where? and what are the details?

punkwax 11-18-2017 02:45 PM

Brand new Telus Mobility customer + already have Telus home services so got the phone for only $30 after all the discounts.

Mike Oxbig 11-18-2017 02:47 PM

sounds a like sweet deal, how much is your monthly plan and what does it include?

punkwax 11-18-2017 02:58 PM

Details are here: https://www.telus.com/en/bc/mobility/phones/iphone-8

They take an extra $200 off for existing Telus home users.

Expect to see a lot of deals this Black Friday on the 8/8+ IMO.

Anyone can't download apps and open apps at the same time? This happens randomly.


Randomly, I wouldn't be open any downloaded app. It would open up for a split second and close itself.

I tried deleting it and redownloading it, the error "Unable to download app at this time" popped up.

Anyone experiencing this?

Galactic_Phantom 11-21-2017 10:40 AM

^Speaking of apps, what are some must have apps you guys use?

Report back how that goes please!

twitchyzero 11-22-2017 03:34 PM

returned my 256gb space grey...ordering a silver instead
the dummies in-store felt solid!
notch did not bother me one bit (I don't really watch videos longer than a few minutes on a phone)

Razor Ramon HG 11-22-2017 10:48 PM

iPhone 8 is $15 tab at Freedom on any $50 plans. 8+ is $25 tab.

Gonna sign my parents up since I have a couple of those 35% discount codes off the plans.

$47.50 per month tab included. :fullofwin:

Message your friends that work at Freedom to see if they have any more codes. I think Shaw employees got some more too.

kr4l 11-23-2017 12:08 AM

I have 1 iPhone X 256gb in silver and 1 iPhone X 256gb in space grey at cost if anyone is interested before I return it

dapperfied 11-23-2017 08:31 AM

Very curious about Freedom Mobile's offer for iPhone X, is it the same for iPhone 8? Anyone on Freedom atm?

frost91 11-24-2017 11:58 AM

i just signed up on freedom, i did the $50 for 5 gigs and unlimited calling

two problems at the moment, my imessage is not working properly and it's not connecting to LTE either.

i read on reddit that i'll have to wait a few days before things are working properly so i'll see how that goes

dapperfied 11-24-2017 11:59 AM

^ Are you using an iPhone X with their network?

iMessage is a crap shoot. Should be fine once Apple adds Freedom APNs and formally activates an iMessage server in a week or two.

Make sure internet.freedommobile.ca is added to your iPhone LTE APN.

frost91 11-27-2017 08:20 AM

i'm currently still using my iphone 6. i ordered an 8+ and it doesn't arrive till dec 8.

i was told my old iphone doesn't have the correct band for LTE all the time. I think when i switch to the 8+ everything should be fine.

Hehe 11-27-2017 03:55 PM

Anyone from Shaw can hook me up with a 35% off F&F code? :D
