Exactly my reaction. I hate this. I hate that someone thought of it and that it exists. I have no idea if it will sell, but I was like "no way, that cannot be a real launch from Apple"


Oh, it will sell! For the very reason it's $230 (remember the "I am Rich" app of olden days?).


I remember.


It's definitely a signal


Here there be sharks...


Huh ? Who will put its expensive, 1000 $ iPhone in a cheap, 200 $ Pocket ? /s


Like anything newly launched, this is a test product. Just be happy that Apple is keeping innovation and experimentation alive.


Yes, it’s a financial engineering and pricing test product.

I would much prefer them to test the technical product.

Or at least fix Xcode or SwiftUI bugs.

Okay, guess I can buy a sock.


If this is a "test product" from a multi-trillion dollar business, the American economy is perma-fucked.
