Will You Buy Apple's New $1,000 iPhone?

Apple is hoping you'll pony up $1,000 for its newest smartphone, but NBC 4 New York readers say that price is too steep.

A whopping 80 percent of participants in an NBCNewYork.com straw poll said they thought a grand was too much to pay for the new iPhone X model.

But even if they're not splurging for the high-end model, 54 percent of the 143 who responded said they'll be getting a new iPhone this year, meaning Apple will be getting at least some of their hard-earned money.

And with five models ranging from $349 and rising to the $999 iPhone X base model, they'll have choices. But 38 percent of respondents said they're going to go for the top-end model (even if they said it's too expensive).

The next most popular model was the iPhone 8, (26 percent) followed by it's big brother, the iPhone 8 Plus (8.7 percent).

Will you buy a new iPhone this year, and which one? Take our survey below.
