That left edge was fucking gross for videos!!!

 

[serenewarfare]

For the record, the message that phone gave after the failure indicated it was restarted recently. Touch ID does the same thing where you need to put in the pass code when it restarts.

I don't like that videos are cut off by the bezel.

 

[jon bones]

love the device

but... i don't know if i like the cut out or rounded edges when watching a full screen vid

 

[Kensation]

Wait, there's a big black bar covering part of a vid in landscape?

 

[DeviantBoi]

What will stop the police from unlocking your phone by pointing it at your face?

Was there a court ruling on the police forcing you to unlock the phone with your fingerprint? I believe there was, but can't remember.

This is not good for security.

 

[jstripes]

Ick, rounded corners and the notch in video.

 

[Dabanton]

Animojis seem lame the Snapchat stuff is much better

 

[unrealist]

The cutout even affects movies! there is a cutout .. they should just implement a line across where it ends (not sure how to put it better)

 

[Jarmel]

THANK YOU GOD I WAS ALIVE FOR THAT MOMENT

 

[pprkut]

That notch looks simply disgusting in landscape mode.

 

[santi_yo]

Full screen is not... full screen? No corners and no image on that camera zone.

 

[reKon]

This would be the one time you really wouldn't want a mistake live demo wise.

 

[TheOfficeMut]

This phone looks really ugly on the presentation. I feel like round corners on phones is gonna be the type of thing where we look back in 5 years and wonder wtf we were thinking.

The 8 looks more interesting to me so far.

They're both god damn ugly. I wish the sides and edges were better.

It looks so god damn cheap.

 

[PeakPointMatrix]

I blushed for him

 

[kulapik]

Cutting a part of the screen lol the essential fixes that dammit lol

 

[RockmanBN]

One more thing...


Animated emojis.

Are chat rooms back in?

 

[HardRojo]

A good start for FaceID lol.

 

[GCX]

Sure the screen is nice but I'm still not seeing the "biggest thing since the original iPhone".

 

[molnizzle]

wait what was the iPhone 9?

 

[ekim]

Good recover

 

[shadow_shogun]

is the number "9" a bad luck number or something?

 

[Dany]

okay good it worked that time. lolz

 

[trixx]

I don't like the bar at the top maybe in ten years when the average phone can remove it; I'll be interested.

 

[VeeP]

Not feeling the gestures tbh. Maybe if I try it out I'll like them. We'll see.

 

[Tom Nook]

 

[Plum]

They had to try again! Fucking lol

 

[jwk94]

Thats what i want to see.

Yep. When I had my Galaxy Nexus, I was hyped as hell for facial unlocking until I realized I was too dark for it to ever work.

 

[jett]

It feels like Apple does things without thinking.

 

[The Real Abed]

Ugh. I can’t not notice the bezel. That border is thick! Hopefully the 11 has more edge pixels and goes all the way to the edge.

Also I don’t want to swipe Down to get to CC!

The phone is too big as it is.

 

[knicks]

"Let's look at the web, it's just amazing"

There is something wrong with these people.

 

[NYR]

Phew, the second and third time of Face ID seemed way better.

 

[Gowans]

That notch looks simply disgusting in landscape mode.

That will piss the shit out of me

 

[Quick]

wait what was the iPhone 9?

We don't talk about that iPhone.

 

[AHA-Lambda]

1 in 1 million chance of unlocking your phone.

 

[Art Teitlebaum]

ios UI looks soo dated.

 

[kharma45]

Definitely slower than touch ID

 

[Scully Scully Scoo]

that top bazel looks horrible, u would think its a fan mockup or something. s8 won in design this year

 

[undecided]

Video playback also displays on the screen around the notches? That looks terrible. Hopefully media apps all adjust the screen size to prevent that.

 

[EmilioLargo]

clap for me. at least this time it worked...

 

[gutshot]

Don't really see what the problem is. If it doesn't work the first time, you just need to have a backup $1,000 phone.

 

[Nevasleep]

Face ID for payment sounds like too much work.

Yep, and in some places they have the readers fixed vertically, so you'd have to squat lol.

Unlock seemed slow.

 

[Husker86]

It said Passcode required to enable Face ID...I'm gonna be optimistic and hope that was the same thing that would happen at times with Touch ID, where you had to enter passcode before using fingerprint again.

But damn...embarrassing.

 

[Paznos]

Too many steps to unlock the phone.

 

[kiguel182]

Lol at failing on stage...

This is cool but having an iPhone 8 released at the same time (way cheaper) does take the wind off of it a bit.

 

[LT Snoshado]

So you have to pick your phone up every time you want to unlock your iPhone X? What the fuck?

 

[sangreal]

But I don't want to raise my phone and stare at it....

This is not living up to the hype

 

[Windle Poons]

How do you quit an app?

When he scrolled left they were all still running.

 

[Arcteryx]

So is there no control panel? How do you turn on the flashlight and control music?

Still there.

 

[CarbonatedFalcon]

I'm dying at first demonstration of FaceID failing, LMAO.

And fully animated poop emoji, I DON'T NEED THIS IN MY LIFE.

 

[cws]

Took them a while to catch up the Samsung Galaxy Edge...they def. seem very happy about that - cant blame them.
