So a couple of weeks ago, Apple introduced a new group of iPhones. The two biggest ones was the iPhone XS Max and the iPhone XS. Though it’s more expensive, iPhone XS Max wins sell race. But why?
So in polls and pre-sales, the iPhone XS Max seems to be somewhat more popular than the iPhone XS. In fact, it seems to be way more popular. One MacRumors blogger says The Max phones are selling 3 to 1, maybe even 4 to 1, what the XS regulars are selling. The gold and space gray are the most popular colors. The 256GB is the most popular size.
But did you get a 512GB or planning to get one? Well, they’re in short supply because of NAND Flash. And only Samsung can ship that, well, with accuracy. Also, the Max is especially popular in Asia. They expect the XS Max only to increase by the year’s end because they expect Asia to eat these iPhones up. This is just in time for the holiday season. Keep in mind the iPhone XS Max cost $1,099. This makes it the most expensive iPhone of all-time. The iPhone XS only cost $999. However, the iPhone XS Max wins sell race. But why?
Many say it’s because of the 6.5 inch OLED screen. The XS regular gives you only a 5.8 screen. That may not sound like much, but most iPhone users will tell you that means a huge difference. Those who use iPhones in our computer service shop will tell you that. However, there may less of an IT service reason and or of economic reason. According to many statistics, the US economy is doing better than it has in a long time. Furthermore, economies in China, India and Israel are booming. Okay, China may be hit because of the tariffs. What this means is more disposable income. So when people have more, they tend to want to buy up. Is that what is happening?
