The iPhone X is in the limelight this time around with the release of the new iPhones. So, let’s dive into the most noteworthy features of the iPhone X, besides its really cool name!

• It has a glass finish on the front and back, which supports wireless charging. It is also water, splash, and dust resistance.

• It only comes in two finishes: Space Grey and Silver.

• The 5.8” Super Retina Display that fills up most of the screen with an OLED display of more than 2 million pixels; so expect sharper texts and more. You don’t have to get a bigger phone for a bigger screen!
