I did imagine this would be the case but still in my opinion 64GB is too little.
Got a tip for us?

So, I have ended up with a 256, to be honest because I could get it, and had originally planned on getting a 64. Im not sure if Ill ever use the storage to be honest, I'm not even half way. Do enjoy that I don't have to think twice about storage now though.
Was wondering tho, I am irritated regularly when I travel that I didn't enough storage on my iPad, cant download as many films etc as I would like. Is there a way of downloading to the phone and using the iPad to watch? Basically mirror the phones screen to the iPad?
(as an aside, coming from a 6, the battery on the X is a revelation to me!)

Likewise, first time in years I've not had to charge an iPhone overnight
one more week of waiting 24-1
will just be my luck, it will come late when all the previous have been 4-7 days early

I am coming from 6 where battery didn’t last a day and in X it lasts a day but I don’t think it would be ok another day so charging anyway :/ maybe I have some settings or something eating battery? Not sure what to think and this is only thing I am not happy that much so far just yet
Don't forget that with High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC) and High Efficiency Image File Format (HEIF) you will now save about 50% of storage with videos and photos.

I’ve returned my X (Face ID doesn’t work very well for me, have to hold the phone very close to read it... too close for Face ID)... so I’m looking for the cheapest way to get an 8. If I do as you’re thinking and bought from Very, would I be able to take it to an Apple Store if for any reason it’s faulty, or would I have to deal with Very? I won’t be buying AppleCare.
I will be up again. Really want a 256 Silver if honest!
I feel your pain
I left home to come to work on wed 25th Oct. Thurs arrived West Africa and sent straight offshore to berth a ship at a offshore terminal.
Friday morning I was on the bridge wing with a local SIM card in my phone and a local MYFI going to another phone constantly shutting down the app and opening it up trying to get in.
A dodgy 3G signal which drops to 2G didn’t help, managed to get a phone in the 24th-01st window. Like a lot of other people, first time I did not get one for launch day (apart from the JB 7+ last year, but I did get the first wave of delivery)
I didn’t feel that bad as I’m not home to play with the phone until the 24th Nov. And after seeing the stock on launch day and the delivery times of the 2nd wave (13th-20th) come fwd I thought I would still have the phone waiting for me...
After seeing the drips and drabs that have arrived in the UK I began to get a little nervous. I was ashore in the office for a few days and had setup Istocknow and the twitter feed. Like you guys I had no luck, only IUP’s until Thursday last week when there was a large delivery made to the UK stores. I managed to reserve a SG 256 (what I had originally ordered) for pickup by a fiend working in London. I put the pickup time 1700-1730, ready to cancel if the 24th-01st window started going PFD. No luck
So my friend picked up the phone and I arranged for DPD to pick it up and deliver to my house come Monday.
DPD was a great pick, 7.99 to deliver. Well it was until I put in the cost of the phone for insurance and suddenly the cost is £77 to ship the phone from Hogh Wycombe to Helensburgh (Scotland). To a vapid inconvenience to my friend I ended up stumbling up the extra cost.... not happy with DPD’s cost a 6% premium?????
Anyways, long story finished. I’ll have the phone on Friday in my had, ready to visit the Apple store in Glasgow to try and get onto the IUP for next year. And my original order cancelled
Good luck to everybody that is remaining here and just remember, even stuck 12 miles offshore with a dodgy 3G network you can still persevere and with persistence get the phone... (with help of a friend)
Intrigued to know why it’s questionable? ..... is that simply because you can’t get what you want ?
If you read through this thread someone complained to Tim Cook and one of his team admitted it was highly flawed this year.
I reckon we won’t see any Belfast stock until something becomes available for iup first.
Is the Belfast store the only store in NI? If so you’d think theyd make an effort to get some stock in there !
I hope you all get your iPhone X soon!
My wife and I have started a blog so I decided to review my iPhone X and chargers.
