Yes I know where you’re coming from, but after a few hours use I picked my Plus up and it felt massive! Definitely lacking width coming from that phone but to me the trade off is worth it for the smaller footprint.
Sorry I had to.
So,
Collected my phone from the Apple store an hour away, came home, unboxed it. Have to say this is the most pleased I have felt about holding an iPhone since the 6. The feeling of having something ‘new’ instead of a rehashed design. I’m loving it. The size is great for one handed use and having the front as a whole screen is just superb. And it feels SO premium. Heavy and solid. It feels like you’re holding something expensive. Had a look at the space grey in the store before I left and I have to say I am glad I chose the silver!
Well done apple.
Yes I know all this, I was asking what the difference was between the standard John Lewis 2 year warranty and the "2 years' Added Care as someone was asking about it. Well I recall I had the "added care" as it covers accidents and my son's iPad Mini 3 was slightly bent and they replaced it.
Guys anyone see a very yellow screen when looking straight on at the screen, but good/normal colours when the phone is angled away? It’s really putting me off. I do have an anker screen protector on but I’m sure the issue was there before. I have a second phone that I’ll open tomorrow and test (my sisters phone)
Also slight second issue, AirPods don’t seem to be working as well right now. On the 7 they would pop straight away, but now there’s a 3-4 second delay. Also I was just on a call using AirPods, once I ended the call and started playing something on Apple Music it went to loudspeaker. Not sure what’s causing these issues

makes for interesting reading to say the least.. .https://www.macrumors.com/2017/11/03/iphone-x-display-screen-burn-in-normal/
It wont restore as IPhone X is 11.0.3. You have to restore the X to 11.1 before syncing with your old phone.

Even I could understand it.
i had this, im not sure if its the same issue as 7 where it took time or the Adhesive on the panels to dry or they have changed the hue. but either way, you can go into accessibility, display accommodations and colour filters and just the hue to a cool colour which makes it seem more natural. its what i have done and ill switch it off in a week to check if its still yellow. if it is, no big deal keeping the setting on
PS+++ switch off true tone! its known for making it extra yellow, speaking from iPad pro to
As someone was asking earlier about screen replacement, which "Added Care" should cover too.
Well I dont need to do anything now as theres 11.2 beta for the X... no need to be mean about it jeez
Turning off True Tone just now has helped a bit but it’s slightly annoying. Let’s see how it goes over the next few days.
I went to my local CPW store, they had zero stock and 1 demo unit - which is funny as they have a demo unit of a device they don't even have stock of in-store to sell to customers. Then I went to my local Apple reseller store, and they had zero stock as well as they stock went to pre-orders, but they said they will be getting more stock on Monday, so I reserved one unit for pickup. They're offering 3 years warranty as well which is great!
try the accessibility option and cool the hue if its still annoying. not sure why apple even placed that option in accessibility it should be in display settings
yeah true tone is good in selective environments. like i personality put it on if im spending a lot of time under blue toned or white lighting like in an office or something as true tone makes your device easier on the eyes but i turn it off mostly
No Ones being mean, just giving advice. Forgive me, I thing you misunderstand,
You can not restore a phone if the operating system is higher than the operating system of the phone your restoring to.
Iphone X is 11.0.3 so as you are using a higher operating system you must update your new purchase for it to restore to the operating system you are currently using and backing up. The last Public update a few days ago was 11.1 So if you have this or higher then an update on your new purchase will be necessary before it will sync. Many forum users did not update form the original public 11.0.3 those users will be able to sync straight away with the new X without updating it first.

I really like it, the edges are rounded off so it is hardly noticeable when swiping up compared with the Anker one which was quite rough round the edges. It doesn't sit right to the edge of the screen but it covers the whole display and with the Apple Silicone Case on it it is a great fit
Did anyone else’s phone come with zero battery? I think that’s a first for me, as far as I remember all my previous phones have been at least half full. Was extra terrifying waiting 15 mins to even switch it on
They actually just released 11.2 for iPhone X
That said - as I said earlier, if you're currently on the last 11.1 beta, that's the same as the public 11.1 release, so you'll be fine! It'll just work if you try and restore an iCloud backup. It'll update your phone for you before restoring.
