Varcor, 10 Mar 2018Let's look at the bigger picture surrounding the iPhone X. ... moreWell that’s the problem you heavily rely on papers and reviews from a third a party, they can be in favor of either one of them, depending who sponsors them. Samsung just released their oversaturated samsung galaxy s9 ( I say oversaturated because the display is digusting in real person and not as pleasant as the iphone X) so Samsung invest a lot to market the phone and that includes sponsoring a lot of reviewers and bloggers in favor of them. Lol. The Face ID feature of the iphone X automatically unlocked the phone as soon as you look at it and It can be faster when you turn off the option “requires attention” but it doesn’t necessarily open the phone cause you have to swipe it up and by no means it isn’t slower than the S9. Iphone X works differently cause it doesn’t bring you automatically to the homescreen instead notications will show you the detailed messages to look over to. You see you don’t get everything on youtube reviews unless you use the phone yourself and know the workaround! I have the phone for about three months now and the battery life is quite impressive; it stays at 100% after a couple of hours with minor use. And it last for a day and a half with average use before you need to Plug it again. This phone with only 2, 716 MAH battery does rediculouly compete to the flagship android phones with more than 3k MAH battery! What’s to complain about? The iphone X is super smooth and the screen responds to your touch so fast unlike the android phones wherein you need to apply a certain level of intensity that sometimes you need to press it harder to get it work. That’s insane! Apple made a huge and a radical change to their 10th anniversary flagship phone with the design, technology and gesture based features. For the past few years apple just keep recycling the looks of their iphones with minor upgrade each year but not with the iphone X. In exchange it is released with an eye watering price tag but what do you expect from apple? Their products are no cheap since they’ve been producing electronic devices! The only setback that comes with this phone is the price cause most people can’t afford it; and that’s the main reason why the sales declined. But If you haven’t got a high-end phone yet and if you have the money and you are used to the ios! It is definitely worth the upgrade!

Anonymous, 08 Mar 2018You tend to waste your time on this forum and you are not e... moreLet's look at the bigger picture surrounding the iPhone X. Prior to introduction Apple put forth it was a revolutionary game changing device with the intent of convincing users who own Apple iPhones and Android Smartphones to justify ponying up for the most expensive device ever produced or in a simpler term, build value. If you're an Apple user the device has significant features not found on earlier iPhones. OLED Display, Glass Case, Quick Charging, Face ID and a faster Chip. If your a Android Smartphone User these features aren't revolutionary or game changing as they've been embedded to various devices for years. Nor is the iPhone X Camera a game changer as it's the same as iPhone 8's. The OLED Display certainly isn't the next generation since we know it is supplied by Samsung and old news for many Smartphone devices. The feature Apple really pushed to the forefront was Animoji's. I suppose you can label that a revolutionary feature however I don't think it influenced an average person's buying decision to a large degree or built much value.
When the iPhone X arrived it's most glaring defect was found in the batteries. While Apple apologized, it never admitted a mistake. It didnt follow Samsungs pledge to overhaul its battery technology or increase battery stamina to 95% of capacity after two years (as Samsung did). It also didnt copy LG or Google by increasing smartphone warranties to two years and covering the battery as part of this. Instead iPhone owners got an 11 month window to replace defective iPhone batteries at a reduced cost, the reiteration when Apple quietly slowed your iPhone down without warning it was a feature owners should appreciate. And finally the suggestion that in future it is the responsibility of mainstream users to monitor their iPhone battery condition and act according rather than Apple.
Of course iPhone users will point out its lightening fast Bionic Chip and top tier Benchmark Scores, how smooth and flawless the UI is and how the iPhone never lags. In the past those were valid considerations but not now. First off, comparing Cross Platform Devices is difficult if not impossible due to inherent differences and requirements of Andriod and Apple's Software Platform Architectural Composition. Recent Speed Tests reflect Facial ID is much slower on the iPhone X and a variety of Apps open, run and preform at similar speeds for the Andriod and iPhone Flagship Devices.

Something that isn't well known is the A11 Chip has chart busting speed when the device is cold, once it warms up it speed drops significantly.
"When were looking at competitor devices we see only the the iPhone X able to compete with the last generation Snapdragon 835 devices - however with a catch. The A11 is severely thermally constrained and is only able to achieve these scores when the devices are cold. Indeed as seen from the smaller score of the iPhone 8, the SoC isnt able to sustain maximum performance for even one benchmark run before having to throttle."

End users don't share identical needs or desires for their devices and there's a degree of familiarity and loyalty which compel users to stick with a particular brand however when viewed from a value based model, iPhones are losing their competitive edge and market share even as their corporate profits are skyrocketing. Fanboy can ignore what I've shared and bloviate over his beloved iPhone until the cows come home but he can't change the FACTS! With respect to Anonymous inferring I've never owned an iPhone and can't afford the iPhone X, it doesn't deserve a response.
I'll stand by my original OPINION, the iPhone X is a good device, not a great one.

Varcor, 08 Mar 2018Who looks like the fool? Every time you tout Apple features... moreYou tend to waste your time on this forum and you are not even helpful. You are sharing your opinion based on others. Given that it is an expensive phone then don’t buy it. There are other phones out there that suit your poor judgement. Stop crying over and over cause you can’t have it. Get over it and don’t drool around saying that iphone X users are not happy with their purchase! Lol. I have tried The overhyped samsung galaxy s9. Not much of a difference from the S8. There are a lot of hiccups when navigating; it was just not as smooth as the iphone X and the oversaturated display is not impressive at all!

In the real world the 3 most important features for consumers are Display, Camera and Price. Unfortunately for Apple the Samsung Galaxy S9 Plus is the winner over the iPhone X in all 3 categories. When the Galaxy X arrives in a few months, Applehead's will really have something to cry about :o)

I went to the store to check out the Samsung galaxy s9 and to convince myself that it has better display than my iphone X. I just can’t believe that displaymate ranked the galaxy s9 as the best and better than the iphone X. It looks like exactly the same with s8, still oversaturated and painful in the eyes. Lol

Ram, 07 Mar 2018Hi friends all other brands mobile is coming with 4gb 6gb a... moreI can answer that with a question. Android has increased RAM at a high pace, but never did it translate into increased performance, once they got 4GB the Androiders were already yelling for 6-8GB. Now they got 8GB and still want more, they refuse to admit that the reason for Androids poor performance has nothing to do with RAM. So the question becomes WHY INCREASE RAM WHEN IT CLEARLY DOESNT HELP?
iPhones have no performance problems with or without 3GB RAM, if it wasnt for the high resolution of the X display 2GB would be more than enough. Just go on ebay and buy a used iphone SE, it has "ONLY" 2GB RAM but once you prolong heavy benchmarks and things get warm it starts beating the newest flagships from Sony, Samsung which will then suffer under heavy thermal throttling. With a dualcore CPU and 2GB RAM.

Varcor, 06 Mar 2018Dream on, the iPhone 7's base model retail price when Apple... moreYou look like a fool beating around the bush. Bashing the phone simply because it is expensive and throwing negative things even if you don't own one. Iphone X is not the only product that apple sells. They are giving the buyers the options based on their budget and capacity. If you want a premium phone, high powered with innovative yet intuitive design, then they can offer you the iphone X. If you think it is too expensive and you don't like the face ID feature and you're not comfortable with the size then you can choose the iphone 7, 7plus, 8 and 8 plus or SE or any other models at lower price. You don't have to push yourself too much for the iphone X if you can't afford it. You hated apple so much and you seem to discredit each product they created. Of course you can look for cheap/bargained used/refurbished iphones online cause it's hard the find them on physical store. A lot of people would be interested buying the iphones cause there's really a value for your money even if they are low end and with limited storage. On the other hand, most of the android phones don't make the cut and they are even worthless after a year or two.
