Takes too much effort. I just go elsewhere for my news now and only check back here on major events.
Ah yes in Apple world which is not the same thing as the real world. That phone isn't worth anywhere close to £1000. Its a no from me.
if nobody buys, prices will go down after X-Mas. iPhone X -Mas. Haha.
The phone is already unlocked by the time you're done picking up the phone. All you have to do is swipe up. Is that really that much more work than resting your finger on Touch ID?
Well, the poo emoji concluded it pretty much I'd say.
I see no safe way to unlock the iPhone X while driving. That's an epic fail for me and makes this phone simply overpriced at $1000 without any Touch ID.
I realize the fascinating gimmick factor to the iPhone X, but why pay more for a phone that's display will not last as long and has less features and practical functionality in real life situations I'd be likely to use the phone?

Well, the US price is without tax, and UK price includes VAT at 20%, but you're right, £751 x 1.2 = £901 = rip off.
Pre-Order date is the 15th for Apple Watch. Pre-Order for phone is Oct 27th for iPhone X
Apple's level of self-righteous BS and hypocrisy has reached near-toxic levels. Seriously. You would think they were a philanthropic charity. "We make these marvelous products each of which is a magnamious gift to the human race" and make us billions. Can't really stand this anymore. This keynote was nauseating.
With Family Sharing I would expect they could either buy something on their parent's phone and use it on their device (iPhone/iPad/iPod touch), or use their parent's authorization directly on their device. If nothing else, use the parent's phone to authorize $100 of iTunes credit into the child's account (there's some allowance function). Kids are ingenious.
