I’m aware of that and had the same experience with the iPhone 5 when the screen was taller. I think a lot of developers held back with the X to see if was popular enough. It must be annoying developing two types of view when the vast majority of users will have standard iPhones for the foreseeable future.

I definitely think developers know the iPhone X would have popularity for obvious reasons, but likely weren’t placing priority when updating their applications either.

I’m sure you’re right. It makes no difference to me really, I only commented in the thread with a personal view of two phones. If I had a spare grand to burn I’d get an X but if I was being sensible and liked Plus phones I’d get the 8 Plus as it’s arguably the most polished iPhone to date. Personally I’d get an 8 though as the size is just about manageable.
