iPhone 10 phone dimensions in cm. iPhone X - review, price, where to buy, photos and specifications

It looks great, especially in a light version (with a shiny silver edging), it lies great in the hand - just like a regular iPhone 6/6s/7/8.

Smartphone Apple iPhone X

We only note that in order to avoid cracks on the glass, it is better to wear a smartphone in a case - then it is unlikely to suffer if it falls. The case, by the way, hides the protrusion of the camera, but the elegance of the smartphone is also lost.

Screen

To be honest, the iPhone X screen is the detail that disappointed us the most in the device. Firstly, we have already said that it is made using OLED technology, and uses a “checkerboard” placement of PenTile subpixels. On the one hand, yes, the screen still has better color reproduction than many Samsung flagships (which, recall, produces these screens for Apple), on the other hand, it's still not IPS, which is the same.

Compare screen width between iPhone X (bottom) and iPhone 8 Plus

Secondly, let me down and the size itself. We expected that we would get a larger screen than the 8 Plus in a smaller package. In fact, it turned out that the screen of the iPhone 8 Plus is still ... larger than that of the iPhone X!

Look, the diagonal of the iPhone X is 5.8 inches, and the 8 Plus is 5.5 inches. However, it has a different aspect ratio - 19.5:9 instead of 16:9. It turns out that the screen width of the iPhone X is 61.7 mm, and the iPhone 8 Plus is 68.5 mm.

But in optimized applications, more information is placed vertically

If we calculate the area, then for the iPhone X it is 82.6 cm2, and for the iPhone 8 Plus - 83.4 cm2. At the same time, this is only the estimated screen area, the iPhone 8 Plus has such a real area, and the iPhone X part of the screen is covered with rounded cutouts in the corners and a strip on top.

It turns out that the iPhone X is more of an extension of the user experience of the iPhone 8, the usual one. And in the hand, the ten feels like a regular eight. We already wrote that the iPhone 8 in this generation turned out to be a little useless in general - it does not have a dual camera, and, as a result, also portrait mode.

If the application is not optimized for iPhone X, then its usable area is even smaller in height than on iPhone 8 Plus

Again, if the application does not use the entire screen area of ​​the iPhone X, then even less is obtained.

Home screen on iPhone X cannot be rotated "to the side"

By the way, the function of rotating the image by 90 degrees on the main screen (as in the iPhone 8 Plus) is missing here.

Modern Combat 5 on iPhone X

We add that the same game developers still don’t really know what to do with the cutouts on the iPhone X screen. For example, in the screenshot above you can see that the pause button is slightly cut off by rounding the corner, and the black screen insert blocks the view. At the same time, the fact that the game is running in full screen indicates that it has been optimized for the iPhone X.

Gestures

The removed Home button had to be replaced with something. We have already said that the iPhone X is not the first smartphone without buttons (it was probably the first), so some solutions have already been tested, but in the case of the iPhone, it was necessary to offer an adequate replacement for all standard and familiar gestures, which is a bit more complicated.

In general, the adaptation turned out to be successful, with the exception of a few points.

The first is to call the multitasking manager and close applications. Previously, we double-clicked the Home button, but now we need to swipe up from the bottom and hold our finger roughly in the middle of the screen. Moreover, if earlier we closed applications simply by swiping them up, now after opening the multitasking manager, you need to press your finger on the application list again and hold it until red icons appear in the upper left corners of the application preview. It's kind of like deleting apps from the desktop.

Control Panel on iPhone X

The second is to call the control panel. Previously, we called it with a swipe from the bottom up, but now this gesture returns from the application to the main screen (that is, it replaces the Home button). To call the control panel, you now need to swipe down from the top edge of the screen, moreover, from the right side, since performing this gesture to the left will open the Today screen and the list of notifications (if any) - like in Android. By the way, the battery percentage can now only be viewed in the control panel.

The third is the Reachability function, when the image on the display seems to slide down to facilitate access to the upper elements. On other iPhones, we've double-tapped (tapped) the Home button (without pressing!), now we need to swipe from the bottom edge of the screen, just above the edge, down. This, in our opinion, is the most uncomfortable gesture for many reasons.

Firstly, it is difficult to find the border from which the gesture works. If you see a horizontal bar at the bottom that appears in applications, then the reference is this bar. You kind of need to pull it down from the edge of the display. However, there is no strip on the main screen and you have to aim at the center of the dock with four application shortcuts.

Reachability on iPhone X

Secondly, it is not very convenient that the thumb (if you work with a smartphone with one hand) needs to be strongly bent down. The irony is that this action is required precisely if you want to reach as high as possible with the same finger. Of course, the descent of the image down is again cleverly calculated so that you can reach any icons without any problems, but the principle itself - pull your finger down to then reach the very top - causes some kind of internal contradiction in us. It's definitely not the Apple way.

face ID

If the screen disappointed us the most in the iPhone X, then Face ID, on the contrary, impressed us the most. It is useless to compare Face ID with attempts to unlock the face earlier - these are not only different technologies, but also a fundamentally different result. All these ideas from Samsung, ZTE and other companies worked poorly, only in good light, and required taking off glasses, taking off a hat, shaving - and so on, which ultimately made the function completely unusable for real use.

Face ID is fast, always and under any conditions. Even in total darkness. Even if you put on a hat and glasses, do not shave for two weeks, she will still recognize the user, moreover, almost instantly.

At first, however, we had problems with Apple Pay - we just did not quite understand how it works. In fact, it turned out like this - first you need to unlock the smartphone (Face ID), then press the power button twice to activate Apple Pay, after which, before bringing the smartphone to the terminal, you need to look at it again and make sure that the smartphone recognizes us. And now you can apply to the terminal. In fact, it takes a second or two at most.

Not all terminals are located at such a level that it was possible to unlock and apply the phone at the same time, as in the case of Touch ID. Nevertheless, Face ID is more convenient in any case - it always works, it does not require any special actions (remove gloves, wipe a button, wipe a finger, etc.). In short, when we figured out the sequence of actions, the problems stopped. Although, Apple Watch is still the most convenient payment method.

On the left - the smartphone is locked, on the right - Face ID recognized the owner

But most of all, we liked Face ID in another scenario. When your phone is locked, various notifications come to it, the text of which is not displayed (if the screen is activated). But if you take the iPhone X and look at it, then their text is instantly revealed. You can not even unlock the smartphone, remove it - and they will hide again.

It's incredibly comfortable and natural. After all, in order to read the message, you just need to look at the smartphone, all other actions, in fact, are superfluous.

Performance

Now we can finally compare the performance of all the latest iPhones in one table.

Now we know absolutely everything about the iPhone XS vs iPhone Xs Max vs iPhone XR, it happened pretty quickly, let's compare them. Your options for next year boil down to one of these phones (although you can still buy an iPhone 8 and 8 Plus or an iPhone 7).

All three new iPhones for 2018 have most of the same core features, but they differ in more than just price.

• iPhone XR: aluminum case with glass back;
• iPhone XS: Stainless steel body with glass front and back;
• iPhone Xs Max: Stainless steel body with glass front and back.

If the size of the iPhone Xs Max display doesn't bother you, then you might be surprised by the size of the case:

• iPhone XR – 75.7 x 150.9 x 8.3 mm (5.94 x 2.98 x 0.33 in) and 194 g (6.84 oz);

• iPhone XS – 143.6 x 70.9 x 7.7 mm (5.65 x 2.79 x 0.30 in) and 177 g (6.24 oz);
• iPhone XS Max – 157.5 x 77.4 x 7.7mm (6.20 x 3.05 x 0.30 inches) and 208g (7.34 ounces).

Accordingly: length: 143.6 mm, width: 70.9 mm, thickness: 7.7 mm.

Yes, the iPhone Xs Max is a big phone, but it's not much heavier than the iPhone XS. In addition, it is almost identical in size and weight to the 5.5-inch iPhone 8 Plus model: 158.4 x 78.1 x 7.5 mm (6.28 x 3.07 x 0.32 inches) and 202 g ( 7.13 oz.). In addition, both new models have improved IP68 water resistance (compared to IP67 in the iPhone X), which allows the phones to be submerged in water up to three meters instead of one.

In other countries, Apple has integrated support for two SIM cards - one standard nano-SIM and a second eSIM, an all-digital alternative. With their help, you can combine work and home numbers or add a local SIM card while traveling - all in one device. In Asia, where dual-SIM technology is already popular but eSIM isn't, Apple will provide a variant of both new iPhones with dual physical SIM slots.

The iPhone XS and Xs Max have louder external speakers than the iPhone X (25% louder than the iPhone 7) and stereo support. The stereo system may seem pointless on a phone, but Apple has worked hard to provide a genuine sense of separation between the left and right speaker.

Finally, those who liked the stainless steel frame of the iPhone X will be happy to hear that it is being carried over to the iPhone XS and Xs Max. As well as more polarizing glass, it's important for wireless charging.

Both the iPhone XS and Xs Max come in silver and gray just like their predecessor, while the gold has been carried over from the iPhone 8 range. Expect limited edition red in the future, a color already available for the iPhone XR at startup.

iPhone XS vs XS Max vs XR: Price in Russia

Let's get straight to the point: The iPhone XS and Xs Max are the most expensive iPhones Apple has ever released.

If you're thinking about Xs, get ready to shell out a ton of money. The Xs (same as the X before it) costs $87,990 for the 64GB model, which still seems like a lot of money for a low-memory phone. (The 256GB model costs $100,990.) The XS Max is even more expensive, with a starting price of $103,990 for the 64GB version and $118,990 for the 256GB version.

Both of these phones also offer a 512GB model that costs $400 more than their respective base models.

• iPhone Xs Max: Gold, Silver, Grey.

The iPhone XR starts at a more affordable (but not cheap) £65,990 for the 64GB model, and you'll spend £69,990 to bump it up to 128GB.

• iPhone XR – 64GB (64,990 RUB or $749), 128GB (68,990 RUB or $799), 256GB (77,990 RUB or $869)

• iPhone XS – 64 GB (87,990 RUB or $999), 256 GB (100,990 RUB or $1,149), 512 GB (118,990 RUB or $1,349)

• iPhone XS Max - 64 GB (103,990 ₽ or $1,099), 256 GB (118,990 ₽ or $1,249), 512 GB (135,990 ₽ or $1,449)

By comparison, the iPhone X topped out at $118,990 for 256GB, but the new 512GB option pushes the iPhone XS higher while the iPhone Xs Max is in a class of its own.

  iPhone XS vs XS Max vs XR: Which is better to buy?

  My advice to those who want to buy an iPhone XS or iPhone Xs Max but will buy an iPhone XR instead. Despite a few compromises, it delivers all the key features in the XS models.

  However, for those who can afford Apple's flagship models, the iPhone Xs Max is the more impressive of the two, seeing such a large display crammed into a body no bigger than the iPhone 8 Plus is dizzying. However, the huge display impacts battery life with disappointing numbers given its vastly increased battery capacity.

  For iPhone X owners, this is not enough to offer you updates. But if you have an older model and you've been saving a lot, I'd suggest the iPhone XS Max... although the choice is yours.

  iPhone XS vs XS Max vs XR: What do we end up with?

  In terms of their performance and cameras, the iPhone Xs, XS Max, and XR are more similar than their prices. The biggest difference, both in price and size, is where you pay pennies for the biggest iPhone.

  We look forward to testing each of the phones in our full reviews so we can find out what Retina displays really are, and how high the A12 bionic processor sets the bar for each phone. Are you ready to pre-order one of these iPhones (Xs orders start September 14th and XR orders start October 19th)? If yes, then let us know in the comments below so we can sympathize with you about the high price.

Apple iPhone X has a 5.8 screen. You can see on the official site that the size is 5.8 for a rectangular screen, while the X has rounded corners. But this is insignificant, the problem is that there is a cutout at the top of the screen that limits the usable area. What is the diagonal of the iPhone X and how is it different from the iPhone 8?

The aspect ratio of the new Super Retina Display is 19.5:9, wider than Samsung's 18.5:9 (LG and Xiaomi use 18:9). But then again, this means that you get a small part of the screen that you cannot use.

In fact, if ignoring the top of the screen where the notch is, then the iPhone X is roughly 18.5:9 in aspect ratio. This ratio gives you a little more space than the iPhone 8 - 10% - 20%.

Now let's imagine that the iPhone X has an 18.5:9 screen and an "extra screen" above it (the horns around the notch). Then the diagonal is equivalent to the screen 5.56.

It's smaller than the 5.8-inch Galaxy S8 phone.

Let's compare iPhone X diagonal and iPhone 8 Plus diagonal

You get almost 30% more surface area than the small iPhone 8 (and a taller and slightly wider display). Against the larger iPhone 8 Plus, you lose about 5% of the surface area (and the display gets shorter and narrower).

In short, the iPhone X offers a screen that's about the same size as the 8 Plus, though content will have to fit the narrower screen of 61.8mm vs. 68.5mm.

With its shrunk display, the iPhone X competes with both the iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus. The iPhone X is a 5.8-inch display in a device with a height of 5.65 inches. Compare that to the iPhone 8 Plus, which has a 5.5-inch display with a height of 6.24 inches. That difference is equal to a 0.3-inch larger display on the iPhone X than the iPhone 8 Plus, albeit 0.59 inches shorter in height. For fans of smaller devices, the iPhone X isn't much larger than the iPhone 8.

It's not so much about how one phone can be better than another, but rather which phone has a larger display.

iPhone X diagonal, what is the display area?

We know you're curious about how the iPhone X's new design and aspect ratio affects its actual screen size compared to the iPhone 8/Plus. Well, it offers about 20% extra space compared to the iPhone 8, Apple says, but the screen area is slightly smaller than the 8 Plus's - about 12.8 vs. 13 square inches - due to differences in aspect ratio and notch.

Other comparisons:

iPhone X diagonal - video

The iPhone X has a resolution of 1125 x 2436 pixels (2.17), taking into account the notch at the top, which Apple advises app developers not to cover unless it will affect usage.

But how many movies and TV shows are recorded in 2:1? Answer: Not much, and at the moment the vast majority of content has been made with other standards, including YouTube clips. As a result, on all these new flagships with this ratio, including the iPhone X, standard videos are cut or stretched. How did Apple solve this problem?

Double tap the screen and it fills the display completely except for the notch area of ​​course. Some may find this distracting, but remember that the S8 or V30 will also crop or stretch the video, there is no other way at the moment. Letterboxing will shrink the viewable area, probably to about the size of an iPhone 8 video, while stretching will bring you the cropped portion of the video at the top and bottom.

iPhone X diagonal view

Because we get a much larger vertical screen compared to the brothers S8 and LG V30 with 16:9 aspect ratio. The iPhone X renders more of the page than the 8 Plus despite having a similar screen area, not to mention the iPhone 8 where you have to scroll a lot more to read the same amount of content.

iPhone X diagonal - programs

Well, this is where things get complicated. Apple advises all developers to consider clipping rather than covering the status area on the left and right if necessary. This means that for most applications they will not be displayed, reducing the actual screen area from the official screen diagonal of 5.85 inches.

In addition, Apple warns developers to have margins on the rounded corners of the display and on the home bar indicator at the bottom, only hiding it in situations where it's necessary, like watching a video or taking a photo. Remember the gap, as the British say.

landscape mode

One thing is becoming increasingly clear: landscape mode on the iPhone X will present a big problem, as even Safari appears with white bars on the sides, depending on the background of the website, and as a result, the iPhone X's vertical space in this position is said to be in iPhone 8 sphere.

Takeaways

In short, the iPhone X's new aspect ratio presents the same issues as on other flagships like the S8 or V30, with additional issues in working on the notch as well as on "bezel-less". It has disadvantages when watching "standard" video, but it is better for reading or watching, and if the application is well designed, the display result is neutral.

Given that such phones are now the flagships of Apple, Samsung, and LG, the trend is nonetheless clear.

iPhone X diagonal - Conclusion

Even with the larger display, the iPhone X still compares battery life to the iPhone 8 Plus. Using OLED display compared to traditional LCD display, which uses less battery. The iPhone 8 lasts 14 hours of talk time, according to Apple estimates, while the iPhone X and iPhone 8 Plus last up to 21 hours.

The iPhone X does introduce some new experiences that I have to get used to. With the removal of the home button, Apple implemented the Face ID navigation system instead.

These subtle size differences make the iPhone X even more appealing to me, even without Touch ID. Many agree that the iPhone X was on their shopping list. Time will tell how the general public reacts to the differences in the device, and indeed the pricing policy is justified. For me? After the first use, I always want to hold it in my hands because of its screen.

Today, thanks to TENAA documents, the new iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus smartphones received smaller batteries compared to their predecessors. We do not yet know what capacity the battery is installed in the iPhone X, but we can tell another, no less interesting fact. It turns out that the 5.8-inch display on the anniversary iPhone X is actually "smaller" than the 5.5-inch screen on the iPhone 8 Plus. This paradox is due to differences in displays.

As you know, with the release of the new iPhone X smartphone, Apple has joined many other manufacturers who have already managed to transfer their flagships to the so-called “frameless” design by marketers. The device received an unusually shaped display with thin bezels and a cutout for the TrueDepth camera system and other sensors. At the same time, the screen of the iPhone X turned out to be more elongated in height and is characterized by a resolution of 2436x1125 pixels, which corresponds to an aspect ratio of 2.17:1. At the same time, the iPhone 8 Plus model is equipped with a "regular" screen without any cutouts with a resolution of 1920x1080 pixels with an aspect ratio of 16:9. Actually, this difference leads to an unexpected result when calculating the effective screen area.

Apple uses dots as an absolute reference, so let's follow suit and not go into the nuances associated with differences in resolution, since this is a completely different topic. We are also interested in a purely "clean" screen size.

So, 2436x1125 pixels corresponds to 812x375 pixels (3x magnification factor) in case of iPhone X and 736x414 pixels in case of iPhone 8 Plus (2208x1242 pixels).

To start with, you can use a simplified model and calculate the effective screen area, ignoring the large notch and curved edges of the iPhone X display. For a more complete picture, you can also calculate the screen area for the iPhone 8. The iPhone X screen area is approximately 375 * 812 = 304500 pixels , while the exact area of ​​iPhone 8 Plus and iPhone 8 is 304704 (414 * 736) dots and 250125 (375 * 667) dots, respectively. And without subtracting the cutout area from the iPhone X result, you can see that the iPhone 8 Plus has a large display area.

To find out how much more specifically, there are a few more mathematical calculations to be done. More specifically, it is necessary to calculate the exact area of ​​the cutout and the exact area of ​​the corners of the screen. Fortunately, knowing the radii of the curves, it is possible to do this. The source cites images of smartphone screens with all sizes and calculations, there is no point in reprinting them. Note that after subtracting the extra zones and adding the area of ​​​​the corners, the net area of ​​\u200b\u200bthe iPhone X came out equal to 296724 points. Thus, the screen area of ​​the iPhone X is 97.38% of the area of ​​the iPhone 8 Plus. In other words, the iPhone X screen is 2.6% smaller than the iPhone 8 Plus screen. The image below shows the iPhone X display on top of the iPhone 8 Plus screen to see the difference.

Below is another table with the main characteristics of the new iPhone displays:

Display options	iPhone X	iPhone 8	iPhone 8 Plus
