Those reviewes are on par with CEO comments when it comes to the level of annoyance. Of course everything is awesome if you cherry pick

Apple Highlights the Best of iPhone X Reviews

Exactly. I'm waiting for the long-form reviews from the tech pundits who have had a least a week with the device. The article that was mentioned earlier, of FaceID having difficulty under florescent light, is troubling.
I got two quotes for them to use from the reviews that came out.
Check out Buzzfeed's experience with Face ID... girl had an allergic reaction from a mosquito bite, so day 1 her eye was swollen shut and over the next few days it continued to recognize her flawlessly as it healed.
These phones that are being demoed have not been out long enough to test for any burn in issues. Also, the iPhone X uses a Samsung OLED panel.
Obviously the «I can't afford it so it's ****» crowd response could only be «if a review is positive must be because these YouTube guys have reasons» and wait for the «detailed review», when these will be positive it will be «I don't believe big news outlet, let's wait for some random YouTube guy hate reviewing it» and the circle will be complete.
I already know what annoys me about the iphone and it's all software. Though I guess I'm not particularly fond of camera bumps. It's all springboard/gestures related. The middle of the springboard pull down to get search and suggested apps is such a waste of gesture. Just put those in left swipe widget page. I mean search is already duplicated there already. Make swipe down from anywhere on the screen to get to notifications. Swipe up from the middle of the screen for control centre or second hard swipe down to get to control centre like Android does. Clean up the glut of icons auto arranging top left let us arrange icons how we want to. Use the space on the top of the springboard for a larger clock, weather, stock quick views or something.
Yes I know it's kind of Android like but this is what is better about Android it seems like such an easy thing to tweak and would make navigating ios so much more efficient and look nicer. You can actually then see your wallpapers and no more having to reach.

I had to add some to the Mashable gushfest.

My review: The iPhone X is not the worst phone in history; it is, arguably, the opposite. It noticeably lacks the blandness of the last few years of Apple iPhone design. FaceID is implemented well enough that you forget about it almost immediately. The display implements technology from old iPhones to improve on Samsung's best-in-class displays. While I am curious about what Apple will do with next year's phone, I fully recommend the iPhone X as there are no better phones available.

You can't expect burn in on a brand new device for at least 14 days.

You are right. A month and a half still leaves us in 2017. Unless there is a storm, but what are the odds of bad weather impacting shipping?
