CORE exchange rewards
I have read about supposed changes in the CORE rewards
And I think that if I change the APEX for Kinetic Capsules I will cancel my subscription

Bold of you to assume they’re reading the forums still.
Why even care about Apex?
Churning ap for yet another recursion?
The value alone of the 500 more inventory space is double what CORE is now.
It's not really about apex or not, it's an arbitrary reduction in the value of the subscription. Hackable items like kcaps are of less real money value than non hackable. If they are going to reduce the value of the subscription, they can, and should expect people to cancel accordingly when they no longer feel the value is worth it. Really, this is just going to remind a bunch of people who meant to cancel a while ago that they should do that.
Any time your subscribed user base reviews the value of the sub and you have decided to bring their attention to it, you should be adding value. Otherwise its likely just going to be a loss of customers... big or small depends on the value calculation of the rest of the sub, but there is no upside to this for NIA.
@Grogyan For me 500 inventory slots is the main value of CORE. The other items are either nice-to-have or negative value for me.
I really, REALLY wish they'd either give us multiple choices of bundles or (even better) allow us to customize the bundle as we see fit. Allowing each person to tailor the bundle to their personal preferences would probably increase subscribership. While @FreddyFG might cancel their subscription of Apex boosts are removed I nearly cancelled my subscription because I kept getting them.
I currently have 30 Rare Kinetic capsules. I'm hacking them faster than I can use them. I've now stopped using the regular common Kinetic as a result.
Do I really need more in the monthly C.O.R.E bundle?
No.
I support the ideas about being able to customising your C.O.R.E load out bundle.
Honestly, there is no real reason why CORE should even be limited in its value. The benefits that are given beyond the 500 inventory/CMU are so minimal already that it would not even be game breaking to give us the Apex and the RKC and gear.
I imagine they want us to actively use gear. I'm still hoarding a lot of things because I haven't needed to use it as much.
I have 70 apex. I welcome Niantic to at least test different loadouts. The issue is putting value on apex where it really depends on when there's opportunities to use x2 AP so it stacks to x4 AP. I think some people can probably see it as overkill but at the same time, it's your premium gear.
When they bring out Tier 2,3,4 though, I'd have too many Apex to use faster than I'd get them.
Where's my +2000 inventory slots!
Apparently if they read the forum, they have already made adjustments to the changes 😅
