I'm on my third iPhone X, the 3 phones were made on the same date and each one had different issues, the first was the camera, the second was the pink color on the edge of the screen, the third and last is perfect, no issues with a good camera and a perfect white screen which causes a feeling of immersion when using safari.
You are so lucky that you'll can get an exchange without any hassle ! Here in India they have taken my iPhone X and doing diagnostics, and no guarantee!
Thats why i buy all in amazon. PRoduct with any damage? replace or recover your money.. Best place to buy
I thought of buying but since I already pre-ordered with an installment I decided not to go and cancel it!! Amazon it will be for next time!!
I had an issue the first week with my iPhone X where it would freeze periodically upon activating Siri. It wouldn’t go back home no matter how many times I pressed the power button. One time, it even activated emergency SOS because I pressed it so many times with no response, and then I couldn’t get out of that!
About a week passed, and the issue went away completely. Hasn’t happened since. I have no idea what the problem was.

No, they won't stop selling iPhone X in the summer. That doesn't even make sense and when has Apple ever stopped selling any iPhone that was newly released in the middle of summer? The iPhone X was not a beta device or test device. Every smart phone has its issues, and not everything you read on a tech forum is everybody else's experiences that uses this phone.
No, they'll just supposedly discontinue it when the new models release this fall. That's not because there's anything wrong with it, but because they think hardly anybody would buy the new 6.1" LCD model if the iPhone X was still being sold.
It matters why since the poster above thinks it's some grand scheme on Apple's part and the iPhone X was a "test to analyze the market." The reasons for discontinuing it are very simple and easily explained.
The fact that its being discontinued (not made cheaper), and it's plagued by issues.
It's being discontinued because Apple doesn't want to cannibalize sales of the new 6.1" LCD model they'll be introducing. It's not "plagued by issues" any more than previous launches. In fact, I would argue that certain previous iPhones have been plagued by more issues than this one. The iPhone 4, for example, suffered from such widespread reception issues that Apple had to offer free bumpers for every single customer who bought one. There has been no such widespread issue with the X.
It's being discontinued because even though it has sold well, it is too prone to defects. Have you not seen this forum filled with threads on the various issues? Many of this threads are multipages of people have the same or more defects per X device.
The iPhone 4 only suffered from 1 issues, the Antenna. Yet, that was an issue fixeable with a case.
This forum is filled with threads on issues for every single launch. By your logic, every iPhone ever released has been an experiment. There are no perfect iPhone releases, and there never will be. That doesn’t make any single iPhone an experiment or beta release.
No, it wasn't. This is your own asserted claim for something you likely don't own or even have experience with. And it's not unusual to read someone saying the iPhone X is a 'beta'or 'test' product on a tech forum, but it's not indicative of others experiences.
That's because a tech forum is a place for others to congregate about issues or defects that they have had or experienced with iPhone X and want to share with others. What about the millions of iPhone users that never report to forums or share their experiences on a tech site? We don't know that they don't have any problems with their iPhones. A tech site is not always an accurate measurement of what every iPhone is experiencing, it's merely a discussion board from select individuals. I could make the same argument Of others around me that have no problems with their iPhone X at all.
