Ten years ago the first iPhone was introduced. It brought a revolution in the way we look at smartphones. Today Apple is going a step further with a mobile industry. They claim that new iPhone will lead the way for all generations.


iPhone X has these specifications - 5.8 inch Super Retina display along the phone, the so-called Face ID unlock by scanning the owner `s face, OLED display which raises the scale for all future iPhone models, front and back cameras which are better than ever for the perfect photographing experience, a special emphasis was placed on Emoji, named Animojis (a new kind of responsive emoticons, that thanks to the front camera, are mimicking the owner of the phone), and many more, not so important, specifications. Honestly, l think we have so many filters and applications, as well as various social networks, which offer a very similar experience of "masking" in the extended reality.

The iPhone X will come in black and silver color and the initial price is $ 999. Some would say it`s a waste of money and some will criticize till the maximum, but the fact is that Apple has an exceptionally strong fan base who are already waiting in line for the new iPhone regardless of the price. Everyone wants to know if the new iPhone X is worth having. After all it actually represents a new iPhone.

So... is the iPhone X worth having?

In my opinion, changing the iPhone's design is a good thing. regardless of who buys it. Each company should be afraid of stagnation of its competitors, as it will affect the confidence and ambition of the company. Having a strong rival is crucial for sustaining the progress of innovation. In my opinion, it's great that Apple has finally introduced the wireless charging, which will probably allow that wireless charging becomes the standard for all future mobile devices. Also, it's great that Apple supports a fast wireless charging, regardless of whether the equipment is purchased separately or comes with the device. A new option of charging will allow a faster progress of this technology and its popularization, which is necessary to a market that tends to devices without connectors.


Apple`s face ID can be hacked using a mask, makeup, a wig or even shaving your beard. Even Apples security tim of experts managed to break the face ID using the 3D printed frame, makeup, silicone nose and a 2D images. But afterwards they wrote : „It means the recognition mechanism is not as strict as you think.“... „After nearly 10 years of development, face recognition is not mature enough to guarantee security for computers and smartphones. As for biometric security, fingerprint is the best.“
