Apple iPhone X Design 

The Apple iPhone X is a handsome phone. The design has a premium touch but it is quite a niche – there is nothing starkly beautiful about it. It fits comfortably in the hand and the buttons are ergonomically placed. It is not very hefty either.

When it comes to design, Apple has made a few key decisions that give the iPhone X its unique appearance. Firstly, it has removed the Home button, allowing the screen to extend all the way to the bottom of the device. If you’ve been keeping up with the Android world, you’ve seen this trend for the better part of a year now, and it’s now making its way into Apple’s latest iPhone.

Apple iPhone X Display 

The new bezel-less screen design is among its most striking features. It is the first smartphone Apple has released with an OLED display and it comes with all the perks you’d expect from them, including and not limited to great contrast, HDR video support, and good colour accuracy. The colour shifting is also down to a minimum when looking from an angle.

The diagonal of the screen is 5.8 inches, but don’t let that number fool you. With its tall aspect ratio, you’re getting a smaller screen surface than the 5.5 inches of the Apple iPhone 8 Plus, and that’s discounting the fact that iOS doesn’t utilise screen space properly. This is primarily due to the notch which houses the front camera and the sensors for the face ID. The screen spills around it at the corners, creating an area which a lot of apps do not use. This is especially noticeable when using landscape mode. Instead of an edge-to-edge screen, you get a letterbox with black bars on either side. Even when holding it normally, a pretty large bottom bar tends to show up in order to visually balance out the notch. It seems like the OS came out a bit rushed and the UI design doesn’t fit the architecture of the display properly. That said, the iOS 11.1 runs beautifully – thanks to Apple’s 11 bionic chipset and the 3 GB of RAM!

Apple iPhone X Performance 

With the home button gone, the iPhone X has to rely heavily on gestures and swiping. This can be frustrating at times due to so many functionalities that get compromised. It’s a lot of swiping which is not easy to do with one hand, making it feel very strange. Every missed swipe or accidental closure makes you wish that Apple was adapting to it is customers and not the other way around.

On the iPhone X, Apple has done away with Touch ID, opting instead for the face ID. The facial recognition software uses numerous infrared beams to map the shape of your face. It does so every time it has to unlock your phone, even in the dark. Face ID is surprisingly accurate – it can recognize you with sunglasses or a hat on – and it will even adapt to gradual changes like hair growth. But that’s not to say that it doesn’t come with its issues. You can’t unlock it from an angle or while it’s lying somewhere since it has to be kept in front of your face to unlock. This also takes much longer than the fingerprint readers in a lot of other new devices. You may certainly find yourself missing the touch ID!

The face ID software is used to access Animojis on the iPhone X. if you’ve ever wanted to turn your face into a chicken or a talking poop, now you finally have your chance! The mapping makes the emojis lifelike and they’re a wonderful alternative to reaction gifs.

Apple iPhone X Camera 

Talking about the dual-camera setup, it is overall quite similar to the one on the iPhone 8+, with one 12MP wide-angle lens and one 12MP telephoto camera. However, on the iPhone X, the telephoto lens comes with a brighter F2.4 Aperture and an OIS akin to that of the wide-angle lens, yet while clicking low light photos the telephoto camera is not used. The phone chooses to stick with a cropped photo from the wide-angle camera instead and ends up experiencing a drop in the quality of the low light photo.

In good lighting the iPhone X brings the best that Apple has to offer: there’s great dynamic range, and loads of details and the colours are pleasant without being oversaturated. Portrait mode creates an artistic-looking shot with a blurred background behind your subject. After clicking the shot, you get multiple artificial lighting modes to play with. Through these, you can accentuate different aspects of the picture you’ve clicked.

As for the video, the iPhones remain the only smartphones to be able to shoot in 4k at 60fps

Apple iPhone X Battery 

The battery life on the iPhone X is decent, with a 2700 mAH battery. It won’t win many awards for this rating, but it does earn a respectable 74 hours on life endurance. Given the present competition, the given battery becomes a glitch and modern-day usage demands large batteries, which Apple should have taken into consideration.

Apple iPhone X Verdict 

The iPhone X certainly brings a great OLED screen and a fresh new design, the Face ID is unique, and as in previous iterations, the performance and the camera specs are the best. However, for such a huge price, a smartphone shouldn’t feel rough around the edges. The UI rearrangement around the notch doesn’t look great and the swipe gestures are a bit clumsy as well. The iPhone 11 has reached its end of life and won’t receive any future updates as it runs on iOS 16.7.5.
