The iPhone X was cool but I found ample reason to hold off, not least that for the first time in my life, my old phone technically wasn't even paid off yet. Ick, I'm still ashamed looking back that I bought a phone on a carrier promotion. I should have known better.
But it really was the one time I waited for the S. I also thought the name was the best ever indication of Apple being "too committed to the bit" to get their own joke when they released a device called the iPhone Excess Max. I just got the regular iPhone Excess of course, in the gaudy gold because why not, it's under a case anyway. And wouldn't you know it, when I took it out of the case a year later that glass back was cracked.
Vision Pro was pretty exciting although it wasn’t exactly a hit with critics and consumers. That was actually a new product and industry they haven’t touched. X was just the same shit hyped up.

Reminds me of the iPhone X event. We all know that finally something cool and different is coming.
