When a friend bought the new iPhone X and told me what it COST! "But it only raised my monthly bill XXX amount of dollars" When I asked for how many years, all I got was a blank stare. I kept my iPhone 6plus till it died last Summer, literally DIED! Best Buy was running a Summer Special with my Carrier for iPhone 8. As other's have mentioned, I will not be upgrading until this one DIES!
