I’m still in the fence. Chances are I’ll buy it, but I keep waivering back and forth.

I really don’t need it. But I can afford it. I have the 7 which is a fine phone. We want to renovate the house, but $2,000 won’t really make a difference in when we can do that. But I want it. But that’s a silly reason. But it has a better camera. But I can always just use a DSLR. But the DSLR is too big to bring with me everywhere. But it’s got a bigger screen in a smaller form factor. But it really won’t help me do anything in life that my 7 can’t do. But it’s faster. But the 7 is still fast enough. Etc etc
 
Absolutely incredible, thanks for the pics OP. I am one of the few people in the world who has seen one of these in person, but it's great to be reminded what a masterpiece this phone is. Get ready for the world to change, it's happening in about ten days.
 
Im on the fence, with my 6+ right now. I wasn't blown away with the design but it has grown on me. I am sure if I were to check it out in person I would be getting it (if available). My recent dilemma was switching to the s8+ when holiday deals roll out. I could experience a whole new OS, customization, etc. (and can't forget that screen).

However, I type this from my rMB 2016. It is very convenient with iMessage. I also however been transitioning to google services, so I am not limited to Apple. Also, another dilemma is the fact that all my family uses iOS, so texting and what not is just easier and more fluid.

The price pisses me off, but I can afford it and I would probably keep it for 2+ years vs upgrading every year. It is a device I use ALL the time (most of us do), so in the end, for what it can do I see it as worth it. Can't beat the customer service either (my 6+ had a camera malfunction and they replaced it without apple care). I also am intrigued by the camera since it is my main camera (almost bought a DSLR but I don't see the point right now).

Hard decision to make for me, but I am due for an upgrade and the X seems like the clear choice.

The main compelling things I find in iPhone X is Face ID, OLED display and smaller form factor. It's going to be a successful iPhone in its own right, but Apple updating the iPhone 8 and having iPhone X, at least gives more options for the consumer.

"Sounds more mysterious, iPhone X."

My favorite color is black wearing black pants, socks, and shoes every day. But always picking black or dark colors every time is as predictable as the color the goth crowd, Darth Vader, and The Undertaker wears. Here comes the MiB! Space gray X is still nice but it's not my thing this round.

Space gray X = jet black 7, sp gray 8
Silver X = throwback option

Silver X is like every iPod released from 2001-2006 with the classic white fronts and 2007-2009 iPhones when white fronts weren't an option yet. Paying homage to 2001-2009. The 2000's Apple when they were at their peak in coolness and design.

The sole purpose of the X's creation and call it "Ten" was to honor this phone...

My choice was clear back in September 12, 2017. Might as well get the color with the silver metal around it that looks and tries to honor the original.

Special iPhones
2007 - iPhone (Original)
2016 - iPhone Special Edition (Best of the Best Design)
2017 - iPhone X (Special Anniversary Edition)

Rich DeMuro showed it the best.

I would get the X, but I simply cannot go down in usable screen space from my 7+.

Ill wait for the 6.4 inch next year.
 
[MOD NOTE]

I'm expecting it will take a while from pre-order until it's in my hands, so I'm going to pre-order it first thing and then wait for reviews and first impressions and decide if I should keep my pre-order or not. I did that with the Pixel 2 XL, and glad it was delayed because I ended up canceling.
 
I think i will go for it ...
my 6 plus run ios 11 pretty slow ... and i cant go back ios 10 i wish i could
, big mistake for me play around when upgrade to ios 11

I’m still unsure because I don’t think that l will like the Face ID.
I will order anyway. I do need a phone as I’ve been using a backup 5S and it sucks on iOS 11. If I don’t like the Face ID, will most likely get an 8 and hope that next year they put Touch ID under the screen for the next X.
