iPhone X: Every new thing you need to know!
Okay, Apple released the iPhone 8 and 8 plus models in the September 12th event, but almost nobody cared about that. The hype was the iPhone X which is now official and it really looks so gorgeous. Let's talk what's new and different without doing any delay.
Face ID
The company, for removing the bezels, they removed the Touch ID and replaced it with a Face ID. So, Face ID is an advance technology by Apple which detects your face with the help of infrared dots on our face. According to Apple, the chances are that only one out of a million people will be able to unlock your phone. It works in low light and complete dark too. It does not errors when your changes i.e, with spectacles, or beard or without beard.
Design
The design of this phone is great. It is not that bad-looking like in the models made from the leaks and rumours. The black colour in the side of the screen melts with the display and feels like you are really holding a screen. There's a vertical dual camera system on the back. The back is completely clean with just a Apple logo and written 'iPhone'. Some don't liked the design but I loved that.
Software
As the company has removed the physical home button from their iPhone, they will have to a big change in the software and they did. You will have to use gestures while controlling and navigating through your phone. For instance, you are in an app and want to go home,then swipe from the line down below completely to the top. Or for multitasking. swipe up from the bottom to about the center and stop.
Animoji
This is one of the coolest new upgrades. With the help of advance cameras at the front, Apple has made Animoji. It will use your facial expressions to make emoji animated according to your mood.
Wireless Charging
Finally, Apple has brought wireless charging to iPhones which was on Android phones from years. But, Apple has made a new AirPower charging pad that can charge every new Apple product: an Apple Watch, AirPods and the iPhone X.
