i want it to be USB so I can use it in the car without adapters
also have feeling it's going to be like $150

i'm returning the official leather case...the tan leather feels and look amazing but it sticks out from my mundane looking wallet, watch and keys

Anybody else's Iphone X seen a drastic change in their battery performance? It went from being able to last 2 days to 1 day now with moderate usage.

no mine's half decent given Bluetooth is on, but I'm still on 11.1.2 (waiting for jb)

if anyone cares I ended up getting the Samsung convertible wireless charger

and just got the icarez 2.5D protector that covers the bezel and top sensors as well (as that's all glass too)

About to upgrade my 7 to an 8 Plus.

I've always wanted a Plus phone but for whatever reason when I upgraded from my 5s at the time, I didn't go for one.

I played around with my gf's X, honestly even though I'm able to get the X for only 15% of its actual cost, I feel like the phone is personally too much of a compromise to me. I've begun to play a lot of mobile games and watch a lot of YouTube on my phone to kill time, and in landscape screen orientation, the X screen is essentially the same size as the 7/8. I have rather big hands and don't mind the width of the Plus phones at all, and the notch on the X is such a huge distraction to me, I just can't get over it.

As much as I love Face ID and how easy it is to use, I guess I'm just so used to using Touch ID that I don't think I'm ready to make the switch to Face ID just yet.

having so many issues a mere 3 months in with the X on 11.1.2 (waiting for JB'd CarPlay tweaks to be updated)

- Samsung wireless chargers don't play well...I've tried 2 different models and it keeps charging/discharging every 30 seconds. I've turned off background refresh and new ensure it's sitting flush and centered. No issues with the $10 anker one in my car

- Siri has stopped working, I can't even set it up because it doesn't not respond at all...however it works when I hit the Siri button in my car radio and the phone's mic isn't broken cause calls still work

- recently it's often asking me to enter my PIN to enable face ID, this should only be the case when restarting the phone

so close to throwing this device into the ocean..i thought iphones were intuitive and idiotproof
