Ten years after the launch of the first iPhone, Apple has revealed the anniversary edition iPhone X.
The company on Tuesday also unveiled the iPhone 8 and bigger iPhone 8 Plus, and a new cellular Apple Watch.
The new iPhone X kills the home button to make space for a larger screen. The loss of the home button means no more fingerprint sensor. To unlock the phone, you use your face with a new technology called Face ID.
It also has an edge-to-edge display, glass on the front and back, and a surgical-grade stainless steel band around the edges. The 5.8-inch OLED display packs 458 pixels per inch.
The iPhone X will start at $999 and start shipping November 3.
The iPhone 8 devices are faster, sturdier and better at snapping photos. They also feature Qi-based wireless charging, which Apple thinks will be available at coffee shops, stores and airports around the world in the near future.
The iPhone 8 will start at $699 and the iPhone 8 Plus is $799 for 64 GB models. Pre-orders start Friday.
The waterproof Apple Watch has an even greater focus on fitness and health. For example, it flags users when it detects an elevated pulse. Ref. CNN.
