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.

Manton Reece

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

skoo.bz

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

Christopher Wilson

@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.

Arne Fismen

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

Kristof Kocsis

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

Manton Reece

@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.

Bruce Steinberg

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

Christopher Wilson

@Bruce I'm sure it would sell well too.

skoo.bz

@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.

Jan Luca Siewert

More leaks? I'd say all the leaks

Christopher Wilson

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

Jeena

@sku_b i'm one of them
