>> then you look at a Pixel 2 XL, that's about $200 cheaper than the iPhone X

And that's where the iPhone 8+ comes in.

Yep. I have to wonder whether the iPhone X is just Apple's way of taking advantage of the customer segment that is price insensitive and actually wants to spend more to get an iPhone that is rarer as sort of a status symbol.

The Wall Street Analysts may have just misunderstood what Apple was actually trying to do when they made their first sales estimates.
