I think it's more relevant to say that a lot of the people who end up buying the X will be the same ones who say "I can't eat healthy because it's too expensive" or, "I can't afford to go away on vacation because it's too expensive"
Since I've gone through two phones already this year, it's unlikely I'll be making the jump back to Apple (Besides, happy as heck with my G6, though the S8 is tempting) but I'll likely get the X for the girlfriend. I don't have a monthly plan, since work pays for it (roughly $110 per month) so buying phones off contract makes way more sense in my position. This way I just pay off whatever phone I have in a month or so, and it's all good.
Bummed out that Apple Financial is no longer alive in Canada. I was hoping to get the X that way, and be interest free for three months. Ah well, guess I'll just have to work a bit more overtime.
