I was just at my daughters home playing hide and seek with the grandkids and noticed she had a new phone - the iPhone X. I took advantage of the opportunity to check it out. I like the screen size relative to the overall size. My iPhone 6s isn’t much smaller, but the screen on mine is much smaller.

I’ll be ordering an X with 256gb in January. I’ve had iPads since they came out and I’m all in on Apple phones and tablets, but I’ll take Windows 10 over Mac OS any day.

Yeah, OK, let the critics keep yapping while the numbers speak for themselves.

Have been holding out on switching up from my 7 Plus until I got feedback from folks on how they liked the Face ID over Touch ID and general feedback on the loss of the home button.

I too plan on ordering soon... looks to be a well executed change.

The face ID is great. I really like it over the finger print sensor/home button.

One good thing about FaceID you can’t unlock the phone easily while driving [emoji28]so less distractions

I just got the X, this week.
Apple gave me a great trade in price on my 6S Plus, which was a nice surprise, as well.

The X is fantastic, so far. Pictures I've taken with the camera are so far ahead of my older 6S, the screen looks sharper, clearer, and brighter, and after a few days, I think the phone is easier to navigate with the one side button and screen gestures.

I haven't had the chance to set up face ID yet, though. I will over the weekend, though.

You guys do realise the wonderful X screen and picture quality is because you are looking at a Samsung Screen - LOL
