My comment about the 8 being epic was posted before we knew the naming methodology so I was referring to what we now know to be the X.

Weekly poll: are you buying an Apple iPhone X?

You can now pre-order an iPhone X – but will you? It’s the first-ever iPhone with an AMOLED screen and the first to drop the Home button.

This also makes it the first to feature advanced facial recognition – via its TrueDepth camera – and the first to shave down the bezels to a point where even most Androids will get a little jealous.

Despite some solid upgrades – like the first mobile 4K@60fps video capture, first 1080p@240fps too – the iPhone 8 and 8 Plus felt a little underwhelming. Not much has changed, their design barely differ from 2014’s iPhone 6.

With the iPhone X Apple makes bold departure from its classic styling, it’s almost as if the last shreds of DNA from the original iPhone have been replaced. If ever there was a time to upgrade to the best iPhone, this one is it – a revolution instead of evolution.

But did Apple go too crazy? You could certainly argue that the price is crazy, the X is the most expensive mass-produced phone ever, outside of exotics like the Porsche Design Mates and, previously, BlackBerries. FaceID is yet to prove itself against the battle-tested TouchID, that notch on top is just annoying to app and web developers alike.

And supplies are quite limited – the iPhone X features so many new components that there were multiple speed bumps in the supply chain. Some will argue this makes them all the more valuable, others will see it as a sign to jump ship.

So, where do you go from here?

Well, look at me in the 17 percentile...

Also, I see GSMArena has the same Androids jumping on an iPhone thread or poll thing we have going here.
