Mine was scheduled for 21-28th Nov and is sitting in a UPS truck somewhere in Vancouver. It was supposed to be delivered Friday but they didn't make it and now I have to wait until Monday.

On a separate note, I tried to buy one in Portland (to save a few hundred on taxes), but they won't sell one outright without a postpaid plan. (although they do have stock) Just something to think about if you're planning on going down to the States to pick one up.

1 of the 2 I ordered is in the same limbo state, still stuck in China. The other one was supposed to arrive tomorrow but is now in Alaska, rescheduled delivery for Thursday. UPS fail.

Anyone else feels that the hype of IPX is already gone?

Among all my Apple fans friends, except a few hardcore one who got the X, the remaining show little to none interest on IPX.

Heck, Taiwan's price already dropped below MSRP if you look hard enough. This is a sharp contrast to where previous iPhones tend to sell over MSRP for 3-6mths after launch.

mh... maybe it's time to short AAPL

Coming from an iPhone 6, it operates just like any other iPhone but it has a bigger screen, it’s faster, and doesn’t have a home button. It also feels good in the hand but it’s totally not worth the price of $1700. I think it’s more of a status symbol like a Mercedes G Class. Not worth the price but people will buy it because they can. Anyone have a Vertu phone? LOL

STILL USING Iphone 6+. Good enough for what I need so no point to drop $1700 when I can save it for a nice vacation. Beside I like my headphone jack and next phone I get will have it as well even if it means getting a phone that's not from apple or samsung.

already said it before, unless fanboy, geek, and/or privileged, there's little appeal for the anniversary device. Seems like the masses find the 6+ and 7 in similar light as the 8 so that's doing even worse in sales

the real upgrade volume will come when X's tech trickles down into the iPhone 8S or whatever they want to call it next year.

Using the X for a week now. Face ID pretty much always works for me - loving the feature so far, especially when using ApplePay.

The phone is lightning fast, IOS is still IOS so the notification menu is the drawback. Sideloaded iTransmission to torrent.

All in all the phone is great. The price is still a bit much but honestly I'm probably gonna use this phone for 3 years (used a 6S for 2) and it's going to be my most used possession on most days (perhaps second to my PC) when you think about it like that the price tag makes more sense. Also if you want a similar phone (Note 8, Pixel XL) you're shelling out the same amount...

Pretty happy with mine.

Face recognition is very well executed, and the swipe gestures feel more natural than a home button. The app switcher could probably use a bit of work though.

Watching videos with the OLED screen is nice in terms of colour and black levels, but the aspect ratio of the screen means you have real estate very similar to the iPhone 7/8.

Other than those two things and wireless charging, day to day stuff hasn't really changed much.

Still getting used to typing on the ios inferior version of swiftkey. Things are very smooth compared to my slowly falling apart oneplus one. I do miss the android notification system and the LED.

iOS version of discord seems really clunky compared to android lol.

Slowly getting used to gestures and still super nervous about accidental drops.
