Apple has officially announced the iPhone X Edition at this year’s Special Event.
The new phone, which starts at $999, marks ten years of the iPhone, and comes with a wide range of new features, including a 5.8-inch OLED display, slimmer bezels, wireless charging capability and facial recognition technology known as Face ID.
It’s the first iPhone not to feature a physical home button, and instead relies on gestures and shortcuts to visit the home screen, switch between apps, and other functionality.
iPhone X to be own as 'ten' rather than 'ex'. #AppleEvent
