iPhone X (X pronounced "ten" /ˈtɛn/)[1] is a phablet designed, developed, and marketed by Apple Inc. Apple CEO Tim Cook announced the iPhone X on September 12, 2017, alongside the iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus at the Steve Jobs Theater in the Apple Park campus. This iPhone marks the iPhone's tenth anniversary, with "X" being the symbol for "ten" in Roman numerals.

Within Apple's line-up, the iPhone X is positioned as a high-end, premium model intended to showcase advanced technologies. Leaks, including those from case manufacturers, as well as HomePod firmware and the final version of iOS 11, revealed various aspects of the device prior to its unveiling, including the fact that it would have a nearly bezel-less design and no physical home button, an OLED display, dual cameras with improved depth sensing, and a face recognition unlock system known as Face ID.[2][3]

History

Before the official keynote of the iPhone X on September 12, 2017, a leak regarding the HomePod firmware was brought to the attention of the media.[4] It confirmed several features like Face ID. Many of the speculations regarding technical specifications were proved accurate. Most of the leaked information was confirmed with additional elements such as wireless charging.

On August 31, 2017, invitations to a press event on September 12, 2017 at the Steve Jobs Theater in Apple Park, California were sent out to members of the media.[5][6] It is the first event ever held in the Steve Jobs Theater.[7][8][9]

Specifications

Hardware

The iPhone X features an 5.8 inch diagonal OLED color-accurate screen that supports P3, SRGB, and HDR dubbed "Super Retina HD Display". It also has the True Tone technology found on the iPad Pro, and a typical max brightness at 625 cd/m2 or 625 nits.

The iPhone X contains the Apple's A11 Bionic SoC, which is a hexa-core processor using the 10nm process. It has the Neural Engine, which is the AI accelerator.[10][11]

Face ID replaces the Touch ID system entirely on this model. An infrared camera reads the dot pattern, captures an infrared image, then sends the data to the secure enclave in the A11 Bionic chip (which contains a dedicated AI accelerator) to confirm a match. The Flood illuminator is an invisible infrared light that helps identify the user's face in the dark. A dot projector uses more than 30,000 invisible dots are projected onto it to build its unique facial map. The system will not work with eyes closed—preventing access if unattended.

The iPhone X features two cameras, a 12 MP wide-angle camera with six-element lens, autofocus, IR filter, burst mode, f/1.8 aperture, digital image stabilization, and optical image stabilization. It can record 4K video at 24, 30, or 60 fps or 1080p at 30 or 60 fps, and slow-motion video (1080p at 120 or 240 fps), timelapse with stabilization. It can capture panoramas, can recognize faces. The telephoto lens has 2× optical zoom / 10× digital zoom, Portrait Lighting (beta), f/2.4 aperture, and optical image stabilization. It also has a quad-LED "True Tone" flash with Slow Sync.

It has a 7 MP TrueDepth camera with a f/2.2 aperture. It can capture in burst mode, it has an exposure control, face detection, auto-HDR, auto image stabilization, Retina flash, 1080p HD video recording, and it now enables Portrait mode, Portrait Lighting (beta) and Animoji. It also supports Qi-standard wireless charging.

Software

The iPhone X will launch with a tweaked version of iOS 11.1 to use the different screen layout.[12] The home button is replaced with gestures similar to the Nokia N9 and WebOS, but some features like Siri and Apple Pay will require the new side button.
