Using the iPhone X in 2024 - worth it?
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 2 май 2024
- The iPhone X looks like a modern smartphone, but it's fast approaching 6 years old and will not be receiving iOS 17 - though the phone remains very capable with a healthy battery. How does the iPhone X hold up in 2024, should you upgrade, and could it even be worth it?

Kind reminder: iPhone "TEN", not iPhone "EX". Please, it's been 6 years people, we can do this lol
Shoutout to the channel members for making this video possible!

Like people that say “ex-arr” for Xr 😒

Portland, JAMAICA in the Building!!! 👑🇯🇲🔥💥🌟⭐💯💎
It's actually weird to see the iPhone X being unsupported, it feels like it came out yesterday.
Wait what
So true, modern and asthetically pleasing.
In the past they discontinued iphones because the actual hardware wasnt able to run the software. iPhones are discontinued now because apple just wants you to get a new one when the iPhone X is clearly capable of running iOS 17
It helps that apple barely changes their design 😂
Still remember the craze when it came out first, and it felt like a joke that time, that it will be outdated someday
The fact that my XR had gotten ios 17 but not the X is criminal in my opinion, such a great phone even to today's standards
The X is the ideal perfect apple iphone, even to this day, there is nothing like that
I'm really sad my iphone X got busted & no longer works (it fell many times, and the screen got cracked to death) last seen Jan 2023, RIP my beloved X :(
Not sure how that's criminal when the Xr is the same as the Xs which both are technically superior than the X.
But I agree the iPhone X still holds up. I mean look at the front of an iPhone X and the front of a standard iPhone 14 and tell me how much difference is there in the past 5 years.
a12 bionic vs a11 bionic tho. Its good that they at least gave it ios 16, but further than that would just slow the phone down
XR has the A12. X has the A11.
Why? XR is newer.
The iPhone X series has arguably the best iPhone design ever. Much prefer the camera design on this series of phones. Also love the curved edges.
Apple will go back to curved edges, mark my words. Just for the sake of changing. Just as they will change to flat after that. They must have something to change right ?
Yeah I still have my X from 2018 and it works perfectly fine. No reason to upgrade something that works just fine. Feels like yesterday bc 2020-2023 has been the same year
@@aapddd also because they already played the game. If I remember correctly iPhone 4 and 4s had the flat design, and it was roughly 10/12 years ago
SAAAAME I LOVE THE CAMERA DESIGN AND ITS NOT THAT BIG SO I CAN FIT IT IN MY BRA AND NOT CARRY A BAG OUTSIDE! 😂😂😂😂😂
It’s a real shame the iPhone X didn’t make 10 years of software support, when you consider the 6s made it to 7 years it seems possible given how powerful the iPhone X was at the time
Yeah it doesnt make sensé
It’s still nice to see that Apple has held up its software support for older devices. 6 years is a pretty good run for a smartphone and it can still be used securely for another year or so.
This phone will get 3 more years of security updates
I got an iPhone 12 but honestly I’ve always wanted the X, something about it already feels nostalgic. I remember the reveal so clearly
It’s because of the X lol

@@davidzak6769 I would but I’m stuck with Apple for now. Maybe when I’m independent from my parents and find a way to transfer purchases.
I used my iPhone X up until May of 2023. Amazing phone, but the age really started to show in the last few months, with frequent lags and crashes. The battery was okay, needed to recharge once throughout the day. Switched to a Google Pixel 6a and sometimes miss my iPhone X.
The laggy iPhone X actually got better with a few iOS 16 patches. I noticed, it has smoothed out quite a bit over the last month or so….
Watch out, Android zealot bros might crucify you for heresy. Almost as if it's unfathomable that someone actually likes the other OS
Did you ever replace the battery? Or is it the same one from when you bought it
@@267sibtainafridi9 I replaced it in February 2022 and was great until I installed iOS 16
@@mihirdalal5303i use a iPhone xs it is doesn’t even lag a bit
I love the X. I've always wanted one and it's truly been one of Apples best. I hope the Iphone SE4 replicates the X body with the modern interior
The fact that Apple won’t introduce huge changes between years means that even older iPhones still largely function like modern flagship devices particularly when compared to similarly priced Android devices. For people living in regions where upgrading devices isn’t that easy; this is very helpful. The flagship Androids from 2017 became obsolete several years ago but the X held on till 2023.
dude iphone x is not even close to some android mid-range now
in 2023 the Samsung galaxy S8 is in the same position as this phone. Nice design and screen but without getting further updates. There are also a lot of video's that talk about using the S8 in 2023.
@@leonox7313 my brother uses one fine I sold it to him when I upgraded from my s8 to a s22 but I use iPhone mainly and had an xr I sold early 2024 and a 13 I just sold so I'm thinking I get an iPhone x and hold onto it until the iPhone 20 is out I'm not much of a phone user but I like both ecosystems
this phone rlly was revolutionary, and i remember being absolutely taken aback when it was announced. crazy to think that it’s now about to be unsupported
Man, I can’t believe the iPhone X isn’t supported anymore, it feels weird to see it go, it feels like it just came out yesterday.
@@SuperNostalgia. AMEN 🙏
Iphone only ahead because of the hardware's, google is coming for the iphone days numbered!
Pixel 4xl is just as old and still kicking ass and taking names, iphone x owners crying, their phones not invincibile! So I bought the iphone XS as prices bow to me on ebay as iphone cowards sell their high prices paper weight! 🙅🫨🎃👻🎃😌🤭
it's the last ive designed iPhone. It feels like a good send off.
I bought my 10 in white with 256gb in march 2018 , it felt so good buying it and first unboxing it and using it felt revolutionary because of the new design, I gave it to my mom in 2020 and she dailies it to this day its amazing and I had to have it because of the ten year anniversary of the first iPhone. 🥰
I’ve been watching your videos for years and they’re just so good, really gives me that cosy feeling.
I still remember all the ads from the iPhone X and it just feels so weird to see it go
I remember seeing the announcement and coughing at the $1,000 price tag. Now that's just normal for phones these days.
I broke out my iPhone X just to watch this video. I think this and the XS might be my favorite iPhones of all time. I know it won’t happen, but my dream would be for Apple to revive this exact phone design as a SE model.
Been a while since I watched ya videos. Good to be back😎
I was forced to be on this phone after my current 13 Pro Max broke out of warranty. Used it for almost a month and was blown away how reliable it still is. Quick, super rare stutters, best haptics to date due 3D Touch, camera completely capable with decent lighting and the battery on this unit was 88% and never had an issue. Insane for a 6 years old phone.
i remember the day it released and how much i begged to get it i eventually after selling my beloved 6S i finally got it in 2020. that phone got me through some of the hardest times of my life sad to see it losing support. i will forever miss it
almost 6 years later and my X is still running but this Friday it'll finally meet its end as my main. About halfway through it's lifetime it got a bad case of spicy pillow and I replaced the battery with an aftermarket one. At the end of the day, I am usually left with 20-30% battery to space but I am also not what one would describe as a power user. In the last year, I have started feeling the lack of performance, most apps still run smoothly but some have smaller lags and recently even crashes directly after startup (oddly enough safari of all is especially affected).
It's not that I wouldn't have replaced it earlier but I waited for another big leap like the X was itself but that just hasn't happened so I kept on waiting year on year for the next generation, for the next big leap but alas that never came. I guess the combination of the last 5 years' tiny leaps is finally a gap large enough for me to warrant a jump
I went from day 1 iPhone X directly to day 1 iPhone 15. It had 73% of the original battery. It got really bad at the end but I’m happy I was able to have one phone for 6 years. The iPhone 15 is every upgrade I wanted over the X. I wonder how long I can do with this one.
The iPhone 15 will probably have support for like 7 years unless a huge breakthrough is made in phones
you really took care of that phone 😮😂 73% batt health with 6 years of usage on it is amazing
You can limit battery charging to 80% on new iPhones so battery health will last longer at high levels
I wasn’t really fond of the new design of the iPhone X at first, but after seeing it more I very much loved seeing it. I’m happy to have gotten a certified refurbished iPhone X from Apple nearly 3 years ago, and I would highly recommend it for a cheaper phone even if it will eventually become unsupported.
Also, I do agree that the only issue is the battery life. If it didn’t degrade so fast, I definitely would have waited to upgrade.
I've had the iphone x since 2018, so going on 6 years now! It's been flawless. I've needed just one battery replacement over those years and I use it constantly for work and life. I plan to keep it as long as possible so long as it gets security updates. A quality phone like this will be really hard to part with.
I just upgraded to a 13 because the battery was awful and it was slow quite frequently. It's a nice breath of fresh air having a phone capable of handling newer software seamlessly.
Definitely one of the best iPhone Apple has created.. already upgraded from iPhone X to iPhone 14 last year and now my dad is using it.. welp, eventually made a deal with my sister to have her broken iPhone X repaired and in exchange I’ll be using it so yeah so far it still performs well as my backup phone that’s why I was surprised that it will not get the iOS 17 update.. I was expecting it to have one more update before Apple drops its support..
I'm in this position and my phone still runs like new ( only changed the battery once )
I said to myself, since being on the S cycle since the 3GS, to now wait...and it seems to have paid off because while there have been upgrades since, they haven't been so major for me to care ( only cared for the improved night mode )
Now, I'm going to the 15 pro and going to stay on this 5 generation cycle. This way, It's always a good and worth it upgrade and not an incremental one.
Phones are at it's peak, not just iPhone. How much more can you do to it that would honestly matter anymore.
I'm still on an iPhone 8 in 2023 and it still feels as snappy as ever, I was really disappointed when I found out IOS 17 wasn't going to be supported. The battery life is pretty great with a 100 cycle %100 health battery, except when it comes to Spotify, which is my biggest drainer, even more than RUclips, so I'm thinking of switching over to apple music to see if its optimized better, with moderate social media use, I can get a day out of it, and for the prices used iPhones are on FB marketplace in Canada, I don't feel the need to upgrade, but when I finally do, I'm definitely picking up an iPhone 13 mini.
I use Apple Music on an 8 with 92% health and can confirm Apple Music doesn’t drain battery a lot. Was on an 8 hour flight, plugged my tunes in shortly after takeoff at around 83% battery left, fell asleep woke up an hour before landing with 81% left and music still playing.
@@th3_ne0__ yeah Spotify used to be like that too, I have no idea what the hell they did honestly, thanks for the info!
My 8 has a 74% for battery life
Make sure to not get eye strain and headache from the oled screen
I just upgraded from a XS to a 13 mini. I did not at all feel like it was necessary to make the upgrade but I figured that it's probably getting near the end of being able to buy a 13 mini brand new. The XS held up so well that I'm keeping it around as an extra WiFi device for the house.
After experiencing how great the 13 mini is to hold and use, they'll have to pry this one out of my cold-dead hands before I'd upgrade.
I swear the iPhone X was released yesterday and all the rich kids at school boasted having one, so weird to see it unsupported.
Security updates should be launched still for a couple of years and apps supporting iOS16 too
still using it since 2017, and it still works good enough with battery health around 76% :D
I had my 10 since launch and it served me well. Im on team no case and it stood the drops and daily use well. After so many years, the battery got to 60% and my face id stopped working so this February, I made the switch to the 14 pro. I got the 14 pro cause the new space black reminded me of my old slate black iPhone 5. The 10 fit my hand so well with the weight and screen size. I'm still getting used to the top heavy 14 pro 😅
Get me a 14 bruv hmu
Been using my iPhone X for nearly 5 years now and still on the original battery. No other iPhone has lasted me this long, the performance is still quick as well.
I bought the iPhone XS for my dad for his birthday. I bought it in 2023 because he had a bent iPhone 7+ with a non-working haptic vibration motor. That means that the phone would not vibrate anymore and the home button which still worked, just didn’t have the button click feel to it. I had already convinced my mom to upgrade her phone in 2022 and she ended up getting an iPhone 11 Pro. I ended up buying my dad the iPhone XS because it was a phone that was the same style with apples for screen design and it was affordable for me to buy on my own outright and it had a zoom camera. I know a lot of people prefer the wide angle camera, but for me everything I’ve ever done, led me to prefer the zoom camera and the fact that the base model for newer iPhones don’t have a zoom camera was a dealbreaker. So I gave the phone to my dad and I transferred everything from his iPhone 8 over to his iPhone XS and he’s really happy with the phone and I got a really nice OtterBox case for it and he’s really happy with the phone. He really likes it and the fact that it is the Xs means that it has that design with the OLED screen and the original iPhone X had an LCD screen what was nice but it’s not an OLED screen. So iPhone XS for my dad and iPhone 11 Pro for my mom. They’re both really happy with the phones and also I gave it to my dad for his birthday so he thought that was a great gift.
The regular iPhone X has an OLED screen.
XS…Jeez
@@lauly33 I might have mistaken it for the XR
My favorite phone. I broke my X and got an Xs since I really didn't find anything better. I really like 3D touch for the flashlight toggle.
Been rocking an iPhone XS for over 3.5 years and only now I’m going to upgrade to the 15 Pro. No other phone’s lasted me this long and it convinced me to stick to Apple in the future
6 years?? wow this hit me hard hahah. Can't believe it will no longer the next update. This iphone still feels so 'new', probably because the new iphone design doesn't look too far off from this. I'm still using this and yes, the age is starts showing. I've replaced the battery but sometimes the phone still lags. It only happen occasionally though, it still holds up pretty well for daily usage
I'm still using my iPhone X I bought new in March 2018 as my daily driver, and I haven't really felt the need for an upgrade until very recently. My main issues now are battery life, mine still has it's original battery which is now at 77% max capacity, not great but not the worst for a phone I've used for over 5 years straight. I've seen newer devices with worse batteries than this one.
I pair mine with an Apple Watch Series 4 and use AirPod Pros with it too, keep the brightness up most of the time and just use it as I would any other phone, the camera gets used a lot during the day as I'm vision impaired and use it to see small text on small or distant objects, and I always use it every weekday morning for my 90 minute commute to work to listen to podcasts and RUclips videos. It doesn't last a long time with my usage, I usually put it in low power mode at the start of the day at 6AM and by the time I get to work at 8:30 AM I'm down to 75-80% battery, and usually down to 40-50% by lunch at 1PM. Not brilliant but I have a charger built into my desk at work so I can charge it before I go home. I always had really good battery life until I got to about 80% max capacity which is where the big drop off happened.
I've been hesitant to upgrade but I'll be doing so with one of the iPhone 15 variants later in the year. I wanted to get a 14 Pro but as soon as it was made clear the next iPhone would have USB-C, I put that on hold and just rode it out with my iPhone X and tbh it's been okay. It's definitely been the best phone I've ever owned, it's lasted the 5 years I wanted it to last for when I bought it and it'll be a sad day when it does eventually get replaced.
❤️❤️❤️
Might be controversial but… I prefer the design and feel of the X and XS to anything released the last 3 years.
But, 4G is feeling limited by carriers. As if they want to force you into a 5G device. Plus, the fact it ain’t getting iOS 17 just makes it unusable for a certain crowd.
I’ve been using my iPhone XS Max since it first came out. But this past weekend I had to upgrade to the iPhone 14 Pro Max because the phone suddenly stopped working when I updated to the latest software 16.6.1. It started restarting itself over and over again and only worked if I used an Apple charger and not the 3rd Party fast chargers. I really loved my XS Max but let see how this 14 does
I really love my X, I’ve had to replace the battery several times over the years but wow she is so reliable, she has always been so good to me. I have considered switching over to android as she is reaching 6 years old but I would really miss IOS.
Watching this on my this on my iPhone X in August 20 2023 made me love it even more. Aside from the battery health which currently sits at 85% which does make it that I don’t always get through one day without charging, it’s an amazing phone. It’s fast, it’s stable and when not in low-light conditions it makes beautiful photos (especially from up close).
I’m definitely considering buying an 11 pro or newer (as long as it’s a pro (I need that zoom lens) and depends on whatever I can afford) but I will keep this phone as well. I might put a new battery inside of it and it’s gonna end up somewhere I can’t find it anymore.
The phone just has a very polished and nostalgic feeling to it and I might use is as a reserve phone. Also although it’s battery only last for around 3 and a half hours I think, it charges INSANELY fast.
My respect for you bro. I love to see people stick to their phones for these many years instead of brainless people who’d switch every year. I used to use iphone 8plus until iPhone 14 pro max came out and switched to it. I am so happy about the uproar because i felt like i just took a huge leap into the future by this. Definitely gonna use my 14 pro max until it’s iOS updates gets discontinued
@@nikhilprince2904yea upgrading from such an old device is amazing for sure! Gotta tinker with all the new things haha
This iPhone could’ve easily been supported for a few more years 😭 apple knew what they were doing. Rip legendary X.
I've an iPhone X and signed up for the beta 17 release ,and it installed and works absolutely fine
ive just bought the new 15 base model and have to say after 6 years of using the iPhone 10 she's still at 80% batter life and amazing performance. Don't plan on throwing it away rather using it as a backup. love it too much.
I just ordered the 15 pro and refuse to give my X away. The only problem I have had in the last year is the battery life. When I got it, it was the perfect iPhone. I hope the 15 pro will hold up as long as my X did.
X and XS series look like jewels. I love ‘em so much!
I still have a 3-4 year old iPhone X that I still use, all my games work perfect at 60fps although on really heavy games it may get hot and then lose fps, my battery capacity is at 79% I can still use it for a whole day, it’s going to be very emotional to update from this
I hope they bring back the rounded frame it’s much better than the boxy frame
I LOVED my iPhone X. Specially 3D Touch. Went to a fold 3 and then 14 pro. I miss SO many things from it
I just got the 14 pro but the design of the X was just so beautiful
still rocking my Iphone Xs, 5 years of good service and on.
I changed the battery once when the capacity was at 79%
I'm still using the iPhone 7 to this day, already went through one iPhone 7, and I'm on my second iPhone 7. Old iPhone 7 was on the verge of getting on life support, and was broken so I just got a refurbished iPhone 7. It's jailbroken on iOS 15, looking like iOS 16. Performance isn't good, apps can't stay open for long when the phone is locked, and do crash due to lack of ram, but the battery life is decent, still couldn't last me a full day on a trip to New York, it died while I was in Central Park, and I pulled out my iPad, just so I could still take pictures, and enjoy some music. I am looking to upgrade though, was thinking about a used iPhone SE 2.
SE is definitely the phone to get. It’s the pinnacle of the 6S/8 model iPhones.
I remember when the iPhone X came out when I was just entering 9th grade in 2017. Now I can’t believe apple is axing support
I am currently still using an Xs and it still feels solid. Im upgrading to the 15 plus soon though but will definitely be keeping my Xs as a backup.
I'm only 18 and seeing this video makes me feel old even at a young age. How the hell did 6 years go by so fast?
Ikr time flies
Time doesn't fly, you forget.
@@vietta6424fair enough
I think it could of ran iOS 17 well, I used one until a couple months ago, the reason why I think it didn’t get iOS 17 is because on iOS 16 most of the features weren’t available anyways.
Before getting the 15 I was on an XS with iOS 15, it was completely fine, except the battery and charge port failing
You know you are getting old when your dream phone gets unsupported.
Yeah, i remember my dream phone xperia xz lol
Yup
@@yatoyato5160lollll that's nostalgia for real
@@yatoyato5160 I remember when my dream phone was a samsung galaxy s7 edge, i never got it but i got a s9+ in 2020 and i still use it.
i bought it when it relaced and im still using it until now
Still using from launch as we speak but im finally gonna upgrade this year, it just recently started to show its age, getting a little slow, only wants to charge one way etc.
Got one a year ago, used for 230€. I have replaced battery and that's all, i really like it. Thinking of some older pro/max models.
the iPhone X is my favorite iPhone of all time. even when the iPhone 20 comes out I will still cherish and appreciate the iPhone X. I currently use the iPhone 13 mini but I still have my iPhone X in its original box with 94% battery health. The iPhone X was revolutionary and I’m keeping mine forever
It’s a really different time to be alive when my iPhone X sits in a drawer unused and one that no one really cares about today. It’s such a nice, and premium little device, that is so capable still.
My grandma recently got it and uses it like nothing happened 🗿
i’m just now upgrading to a newer iphone after years but i’ll miss my iphone x. it felt so fancy when it was new and now it’s on life support at 73% battery capacity
i actually got my iphone x for free about a year ago from one of my co-workers since i was still using an iphone 7 and i only use it for work and it's been great still, slapped on a screen protector and a case and it's basically brand new again. Battery life is great, probably charge it once every 3-4 days and for simple calling, mail, messaging, and the occasional facetime. I have no real reason to upgrade, until my next free iphone from co-workers lol. Even if I kept using my iphone 7, I don't think I would see any issue for my day to day use, actually miss the built in button and fingerprint sensor, i dont have faceid setup for privacy.
Many fond memories of the destroyed iPhone X I bought and repaired up, upgraded to the 13 Pro Max but I absolutely adored the iPhone X for its size and overall beautiful package
Watching this video from the X. Still working fine if you only use it for scrolling social media or watching YT. It gets hot easily if you playing heavy games or apps. But still love it even 5-6 years has passed 🥰
The camera still great and it’s perfect to be my 2nd device ❤
When are you thinking of upgrading?
I feel like the X and Xs is a similar situation to what the 5 5s or 6/6S was were the S one was a huge jump over the non-S model. I have a feeling that the Xs will get at least 2 to 3 more years support over the X
same
I don’t want to be early. But I think the iPhone XS and XR should get iOS 18 and 19 no problem. And I think apple will end off the XS and 11 series all together. iOS 20 and beyond will be for the 12 series.
depends on its neural engine suppport. I remember they remove some features on older models because of the neural engine.
wouldn't count on that, Apple is removing a generation every year now
@@_DigitalguyTrue. While it’s true, it feels weird to think that the 8 and the X were part of the same generation.
Bro i remember this being launched, so weird to see the support being dropped, such an amazing phone
Given how non-innovative the release of the iPhone 15 was I’d say that sticking with the iPhone X is a pretty smart decision tbh, this one being the last one that came out with actual innovations, me personally I’m still using the iPhone XR, and I have yet to see any lack of production from this device
been using my iPhone X since December 2017. broke it 6 times, always restored, once dropped in the gap of the elevator from the third floor, survived. I cried when they gifted it to me, but yea the guy's old. Upgrading this year but it has been hell of a ride. I'm sure if the occasion comes my X will be good for another 2 years minimum.
Always wanted a X, however at the time I has just gotten a samsung s9+ but ended up getting a 12 pro max so going back is not worth it. Seeing that I bought my current iphone fully our of pocket cash I can't just go buy the new 14 or 15 coming out this year.....I should have 2-4 more years of updates.
A battery is not a big deal, that can be replaced at a fraction of the cost of a new phone if you really like the current phone you have but a bad battery.
I have had this phone since November 25, 2017. I just ordered the 15 pro max. The iPhone 10 will remain in my heart. It's a masterpiece. I've never kept a phone as long as this one.
My dad brought the iPhone X in May 2018 and used it all the way up until yesterday when he upgraded to the iPhone 15. The phone was still working great for him however the battery life was had become quite poor. Other than that it was still working fine. I am impressed by how long it has lasted.
Im still use old design in 2023 (se 2nd gen).. all good but sadly screen resolution 750p not relevant in 2023.. it make social media story photo blurry when your viewer 1080p device see your story..
6.1 inch screen started with the 10R, it's actually the reason I bought it in the first place. It's bigger than the 10S which is too small for me, but also smaller than the 10S Max which is too big for me.
I’m still using this phone today. Feels as snappy as the day I bought it and have no desire to get a new phone. I’m going to use this phone until the day Apple stops releasing security updates for it.
I am a slacker and still use one! Ios 16 is the last stop for it, which is sad, but it had to happen one day. I will upgrade to the iPhone 14 pro because the notch is indeed getting old. I had to change the battery and i went for a high capacity one, around 3200mAh. And that got me 2 days of use, now, after 3 years, this battery comes close to the og battery capacity. It went rather fast! Can’t believe it’s 6 years old already . . .
Love My iPhone X got it used from Visible then replaced the Battery. Not my main device these days but gonna keep it 📱
I’m on iPhone 11 Pro Max, And seeing that the X is not getting iOS 17 is nuts!
I have a xs on iOS 17 and it works perfectly. The battery health is on 87% but It was a big upgrade from a iPhone 7.
even with 4 models after this I still love the design glad iOS 17 is coming to the XS.
I still have my XS and just got IOS 17 still happy with my photos and still going strong.
It’s crazy how expensive this phone was and popular when it came out and now it’s just not even worth it now I do believe the 11 and newer should age very well
I bought the essential phone a few months before the x dropped, felt like i was living in the future with the first phone with a notch, many eyes turned, then the x came and it became a little more normal
I miss my iPhone X. Had if for 5 years. Apple gave me a free battery a couple years ago. But last year, I did feel it was getting a bit slow and I wanted to try a bigger screen. I got the 14 Pro Max and other than battery life and the display, it was a pretty bad experience. I had many issues with it and it wasn’t long before I regretted having such a bigger and heavier phone. I made it through the year and jumped on the 15 Pro this year. Already the experience is so much better than the 14 and I looked up the dimensions and weight and it is similar to the X. I feel like I’m back to having a good iPhone experience and hope that this one will be my new favorite iPhone 5 years from now
I remember when this iPhone got released it felt so futuristic
I just recently dropped my phone and I finally think I am going to buy a new phone, my X has been pretty slow for a while but this was my wake up call, it would cost more than it’s worth to replace the screen
decided to move to iPhone and go cheaper last year and got an 8 plus, i was thinking i would be able to get ios 17 as i indeed get 16. nice phone stll and it made my switch to apple become, now i am using mac and an iPad 9th gen, probably upgrading to an 12 next year tho
I still use it every day, upgrading this year. Battery health at 84%!
I have the iphone 10 and i think it takes great pictures. I have been thinking about getting the 15 but i cant decide. i only use the camera for 2 things. looking at trip pictures on my computer (getting iphone picture from my phone to my computer is a whole different headache!!) and i also like to print our 8 x10 pictures to put on my wall for my "travel art gallery" in my basement. if the iphone 10 works great for those to functions, would i have a reason to get a iphone 15 if the 10 prints out great 8X10? i dont care about videos, or editing functions. just to look at on my computer and to print out 8x 10's!
I just upgraded from an XR to a 14 Pro and I sometimes miss the simplicity of it
Love the intro
I have a Xs max and I’m getting the 15 pro max, supposed to arrive today actually.
The battery health is 75%. I work 12hr graveyard shifts and I’m a heavy user.
I had a baby last year, I really want the better cameras.
My 256GB capacity is pretty much full. Need to upgrade storage.
So It’s time.
I also didn’t know the X lost ios upgrade support. That kind of shocked me.
I kinda saw the iPhone X’s death this year coming but, not really that early. I thought it would die late 2023 or early 2024.
Love my X. It’s served me so well. I just sprang for the 15 Pro and am more sad that I have to mothball it than I am excited to get a new phone.
I’m still using my iPhone XR. It runs great.
I still have an iphone X that i got in summer 2022 but honestly it serves me well,i've used an iphone 7 from 2020-2022 and b4 that crappy android phones so i have nothing to complain apart from ios 17 not being here
Im using an iPhone X in 2023 and it's still a brilliant phone. Still relatively quick, and what was future proof in 2017 is now beginning to be outdated. The only reason why I've upgraded to a 15 pro max is because of the camera and loss of software support, and quite frankly the battery dies by 1pm with regular use. I also don't care for android devices, and find iOS better to use.
In addition with the death of the lightning cable, now is a better time to upgrade than any other year.
it also set a trend. remember android phones at that time also having their notch for no reason? it was iPhone X impact😅
…and gestures instead of 3 touch buttons, which can still be activated
I daily drive this and it still does great, tho tbf, after 2 battery changes and need to carry a power bank for long days.
