They changed the name of the "Plus" to the "Max". They released an iPhone 7 and a 7 Plus. It is the same concept, only marketed differently.
Point is that the 8+ to the Xs max is a complete redesign if you look at it that way. It's an entirely new phone, it's not incremental.
Now the X to Xs is incremental, as usual with the "s" lineup. Going forward I expect they'll be on the same schedule so the next "s" round may be an incremental upgrade for the Max/whatever line.

Yeah Phil Schiller always does the iPhone keynote. He's a total douche.

Further, you're wrong about the Xr. It has a bigger screen than the X, not smaller. Yes the internals are lower spec'd- but don't compare it to the Xs. Compare it to the 8+. That's the model and pricepoint it's replacing. When compared to the 8+, it's a significant change.
It's smaller than the XS.
Also, nothing is replacing the 8+.....It appears to me that Apple is still selling the 7 and the 8 lines.

lol. Xs is 5.8 inch screen. Xr is 6.1 inches.
Xr is stepping into the old pricepoint of the 8+.
the Xr isn't anything incremental. it's a new model, which blends the lower pricepoint with the newer edge to edge design.

It’s either Xr or xs max for me, unless I can find a killer deal on an X

I pre approved for the Gold Xs. I usually hate those gold phones but this one caught my attention for some reason.

I don't have the specs in front of me, but is the width of the Xs the same width as the Xs Max or whatever it is called?

Is it worth it to upgrade from the iPhonex ?

X to Xs, probably not. The S models are rarely big enough changes to warrant an upgrade after just a year. I can see considering an Xs Max though for the larger screen.

Remember when the choices were the 7 for small or 7s for large?
I'm lost with the new chemical equation phone names.

How do you get “pre-approved”
I don’t want to wake up at 2am to order a fricking phone. What’s the easiest way to do it? If I wait til Friday morning will there be a backlog of orders?
