For me it’s the smaller size, much more pocketable. What about you all?
Got a tip for us?

Honestly, it is really difficult to pick just one thing .. there are so many. But the thing I use most .... swiping up from the bottom ... it is soooo smooth ... like butta!! LOL ...
It doesn't look white like the Silver model.
The size. It’s the perfect size for me. And I’m coming from a 7 plus.
Perfect size/screen...coming from an 8 Plus...this thing is beautiful to look at and scroll around with
Only real reason I got it was for the screen size in the smaller form factor. 1 year of having to constantly take my 7+ out of my front pocket before sitting down was annoying. And some of my favorite jeans, I basically stopped wearing because the + didn't fit entirely in the front pockets.
swiping up to go home. Much more natural and effortless.
I enjoy 2 things:
1. Screen size, I came from a iphone 7+ and I loved the larger screen but doing things one handed was a challenge (texting for one). The iPhone X is just slightly smaller than a plus model and I love it because I can now reach both ends of the keyboard with one hand while maintaining a good grip on the phone.
2. faceID, I like how fast and easy it works. I hear people complaining about having to swipe up to open the phone but I would argue that we had to press the touchID button to do the same thing. Also if you just swipe up as soon as the screen is on, faceID will recognize you and unlock the phone all in 1 step. I think the people who are complaining are first waiting for the phone to unlock and then swipe up. There is no need to wait just do it all in one step. Works flawlessly. Oh, I’m also surprised that it works At different angles. For example, I had the phone next to my keyboard on the left hand side while I typed some stuff. I looked over at the phone and swiped up and it recognized me and unlocked.

O Face ID...
I didn’t realize how much time we all wasted reading fingerprints.
Jeez they used to use fingerprints in the freakin 1800s. This phone is definitely the future.

Overall design/form factor
Okay, truthfully, I LOVE everything but I had to pick one thing so there you go

Message previews hiding until you look right at the phone and then the text appears immediately. Stops people from glancing as your phone lights up if you're not near it and allows you to keep message previews on.
This was pretty cool. I had navigation going. While it was sitting in my cup holder. Phone would light up with a direction notification and not show it until I looked at the phone.
The screen is amazing! Also Face ID works a lot better than I thought. Overall I love it. Well worth the wait.
In all honesty, I have yet to find a single thing I don't absolutely love about this phone. Everything...and I mean everything...is working perfectly for me. Face ID? Good lord. I had high expectations, but wow.
Face ID/ OLED Screen... this phone is simply amazing
Dumping the home button. It’s what I’ve wanted since I’ve seen other android phones dump buttons. Long time coming for me.
So far I am really liking everything. Very impressed.
If I have to pick...I feel like I am joining the chorus, but the Face ID and the OLED screen are awesome.
Also, sorry I need to add more as I think it is just such a gorgeous phone. I have the Silver, and it is even more beautiful in person. I really liked the design of the 4, but this blows that out of the water, in my opinion.
