More leaks ahead of the Apple announcements. iPhone XS Max, hmm? I don’t need a new phone, but curious to see the size of this one in the real world.

At least we're avoiding naming like the old potential of the Macintosh SE X.

@sku_b That's true! (Still surprised the iPhone SE never got an upgrade this year.)

Yeah, same. I still know a lot of people that like that smaller form factor.

@sku_b I have an SE and want to upgrade. I'll probably go for the Xs but would have loved an iPhone SE X (apart from all the suggested content issues that would have caused). Also I think the lack of iPhone SE replacement shows that not all rumours are worth listening to.

What do you think of the names? iPhone XS Max will surely be pronounced excess max by most people, and that sounds really tacky.

@sku_b @arne what if the “max” is just a replacament for “+”. That would make the most sense to me, but who knows 🤷♂️

@arne Agreed. I'm trying not to complain too much, but I think the 8 vs. X (and futile "10" pronunciation) has created new confusion.

@ChrisJWilson Well, a phone with that name would certainly put an extra snap in my step. 😁

@ChrisJWilson Yeah, I generally try to ignore the rumors the best I can. I want to be surprised, but I also want to know what direction Apple is actually going in.

@sku_b I know what you mean. I don’t want to know rumours...also I totally want to know rumours.
