iPhone X

The Apple iPhone X was Apple’s flagship 10th anniversary iPhone featuring a 5.8-inch OLED display, facial recognition and 3D camera functionality, a glass body, and an A11 Bionic processor. Launched November 3, 2017, discontinued with the launch of the iPhone XR, XS, and XS Max.

Display

A 5.8 inches display. That automatically makes the Apple iPhone X a phablet device. It has an 83% screen to body ratio and comes with an unbelievable 1125 x 2436 pixels (458 ppi pixel density) resolution. Is this not a 4K display? And have I mentioned it is a Super AMOLED capacitive display?

There isn’t any smartphone in the market today (2017) with a display that beats that on the iPhone X. To top it up, it is a scratch resistant display since it has scratch resistant glass protection and supports 3D touch display with a wide gamut and true tone display.

Camera

Once again we see a dual camera setup on an Apple iPhone. The first time was with the Apple iPhone 7 Plus. It did work out well and here, with the iPhone X, it can only get better.

It comes with a dual 12MP camera with phase detection, autofocus, Optical Image stabilization, 2x optical zoom and a quad core LED flash. The front facing camera is a 7MP shooter with face detection, HDR and panorama. It can record videos of quality up to 1080p@30fps.

Video recording stands at 2160p@24/30/60 fps and 1080p@30/60/120/240fps.

The camera has these features geo tagging, simultaneous 4K video recording, and touch focus, face/smile detection, HDR (photo/panorama).

Performance and Memory

It comes with the latest iOS 11, an Apple A11 Bionic chipset and a Hexa core CPU.

The memory is either 64 GB or 256 GB and both run n 3GB RAM.

It is as snappy as you would expect, as smooth as it can get and you get the best user experience with the Apple iPhone X as well.

Its non-removable battery will last you a whole day of usage. The Apple iPhone X supports fast batter charging> you go from 0 to 50% in just 30 minutes of charging. It does support wireless charging as well.

You get to choose between a space grey and a silver Apple iPhone X. This is one phone that has come way ahead of its time. It has the best camera performance, platform performance and user experience.
