It packs a perfect build blending glass and metal in a really superb way.
Thanks to Apple for the creative location of the speaker which produces audible sound downwards from the under part of the phone.
To add, iPhone X is dust and water resistant, therefore you’re covered when these elements “attack” your phone.

I used the iPhone 7 before this. With so many conflicting reviews I was unsure how the Device would be. I also knew that Apple would not bring an anniversary product to the market without extensive testing to eliminate major problems.Thank god I ordered it! Face ID changes everything. Unlocking the phone is only one minuscule part of its job. Lovely phone enjoying every minute of it. Never missed the home button for a second. The gestures and screen are pure butter. Feels like the future for sure! Apple at its intuitive best!
