How accurate are those? The X looks pretty darn close to the Note 8, without the curved edges. I'd take the X over the Note 8 just based on that so far.

The link i posted gives you all the details with size dimensions. Did you check it out?

iPhone X has exactly the same width as the iphone 8.

You can see it on Apples Human Interface Guidelines.
https://developer.apple.com/ios/human-interface-guidelines/overview/iphone-x/

I think next Year Apple will release two sizes for the iPhone X.
If you like Plus Size, iPhone X is no option.

I saw that a while ago, VERY disappointing that you are just getting a taller iPhone 8. Also the screen is smaller than the iPhone plus:

Hmm they are supposedly accurate, but is the iPhone X screen really almost the same size as the Note 8's screen? Man, that means the iPhone X is going to be very tall.

Note 8 is not in the picture, add another cm on the length of 7 plus for tommy tall.

No note 8

Oops I meant the S8+, but I now see that's a regular S8, now it makes more sense!!

Roles have reversed this year. iPhone 8 Plus' suffering from puffy batteries.

Not the same extent. Note 7's were catching fire and exploding, saw a story last night about a family's house burnt down from a Samsung washing machine, there is 30,000 that Samsung havn't even notified about it here. Great company.

Love my new Alcatara cover!

Looks like its wrapped in a old piece of velvet or carpet IMO. Is that the best they can come up with?

Recalls aren't the only way to have product defects. Apple is famous for touch disease. Pretty sure you know about that.

I am sure if it was problem like note 7 and samsung washing machines they would of. Personally i would have more faith in a US company doing the right thing than one out of Asia.

You never have nothing nice to say do you? Alcatara looks like this even on a very expensive car.

I provided a link for you. Why didn't you post the comparisons?

It appears to be the same company that made some of the Note 7 batteries

It appears the battery inside the iPhone 8 Plus is made by Amperex Technology Limited (ATL), The Next Websays, citing unconfirmed reports. ATL was one of the two suppliers of faulty Galaxy Note 7 batteries that Samsung threw under the bus in early 2017. However, that shouldn’t be a cause for concern, as long as these are isolated incidents. After all, the Galaxy Note 7 explosions were caused by Samsung’s faulty design, not the companies building the batteries.

Not a faulty design. The batteries had bent pens/blades or whatever they are called on the ends and other things wrong with them. I can't recall all the details, but it really wasn't the design it was the supplier of the battery that made them badly.

The focus speed is fast! It certainly helps with snapping photos of my boy, he's faster :)
