Here's What You Can Do With $999 Instead Of Buying An iPhone X
iPhone X, or iPhone 10 as it is also being called, will be available in the United States from October 27. It may have a number of new features -- bezel-less, edge-to-edge screen, no home screen button, and so on -- but is it really worth blowing up $999, when the per capita GDP of my home country India itself is only $1820?
Specifications:
The iPhone is packed with Super Retina HD display, 5.8-inch (diagonal) all-screen OLED Multi-Touch display, HDR display, 2436-by-1125-pixel resolution at 458 PPI, 1,000,000:1 contrast ratio (typical),True Tone display, Wide color display (P3),3D Touch, 625 cd/m2 max brightness (typical)
Fingerprint-resistant oleophobic coating and support for display of multiple languages and characters simultaneously

Five things to do instead of spending $999 on an iPhone X :
1) I’d spend the $999 on annual fees for premium travel cards — essentially investing in a great travel card like Chase Sapphire Reserve, The Platinum Card from American Express or the Citi Prestige.
2) A super expensive phone is a risky investment. It can be stolen, damaged or lost, leaving you vulnerable to a stroke. An overseas vacation, on the other hand, will leave you with memories -- and photographs-- that will last a lifetime, and you will still have the bragging rights on Instagram.
3) Why not put the money in a PPF account? It saves you tax as well. Or go for a fixed deposit or mutual funds. For instance, a lakh in a balanced fund will earn 15% interest and the amount will double in six years. If you opt for National Savings Certificates, you will get Rs 1.5 lakh after five years.

4) Do charity: With $999, you could sponsor a child’s education at SOS Children’s Villages for about eight years at $125 annually. Read more here!
5) ASUS Zenbook UX305: With a 13.3-inch display and up to 256 GB of storage and a built-in Windows software, this computer is best for your basic word processing and web browsing needs.
