Week 37 in review: iPhone trio, Xiaomi duo debut

Week 37 of 2017 was dominated by three important events. The first was Apple holding its annual iPhone refresh, which this time brought three new devices, including the X - the first major redesign since the iPhone 5 came around.

Xizomi introduced a couple of interesting devices too - the Mi Mix 2 and the Mi Note 3 are both premium offerings and understandably got plenty of attention.

Finally Samsung released the Galaxy Note8 in 42 markets, marking the official start of its sales. Early numbers are impressive, but we'll see how much of an impact the iPhone 8 release next week will have on the Samsung flagship.
