While we are content with the release of the iPhones 8 and 8 Plus, which takes place tomorrow in Brazil, some countries are already getting to know the iPhone X closely.
The US press even received units of the device sent by the Apple in advance so that they could share their first impressions.
With only one screen option, larger than the iPhone 8 in body and smaller than the 8 Plus, the company's "commemorative" model received a considerable change, losing very characteristic points such as the "home” and the fingerprint identifier. Let's see what the foreign press thinks of the news.
Face ID 534t4b
The main release of Apple this year has more emphasis on the facial recognition. Many of its features are geared towards this functionality: the natural, for example, with space for the on-screen recognition engine, portrait photos on the front camera and the animojis are some of them.
Nilay patel, from the website The Verge, tried the function and… was not entirely satisfied.
According to him, the configuration is extremely simple, more than touch ID. Just turn your face in front of the screen twice and the system quickly s your features.
Initially it works very well and impress. Over time, it gets even better and captures new features and possible changes in the face.
Some issues arise only with some time of use. Slower variations are identified without problems, others more drastic, such as a shave, may already make it necessary to enter the . Sunglasses do not let the system fail, as long as they allow infrared to through the lens.
The biggest problem, contrary to what many believed, is the excess light. Everyone expected that the biggest difficulty would be in the dark, but when leaving the office on a sunny day, Patel noticed significant system flaws:
“I went into the shade and had to bring the phone a lot closer to my face than usual. I also went to a Deli that has a wide variety of lights inside and Face ID has also become significantly more inconsistent.”
He also noted that recent Apple products require s to adapt to them, rather than the other way around, such as the habit of always looking straight at the device to unlock it, one of the company's indications of how Face works. ID Just taking it out of your pocket and watching the screen, with the device next to your pants, does not activate the recognition system.

It is not news that the cameras of the iPhones 8 and, mainly, of 8 iPhone Plus have been very pleased and stood out in tests. As iPhone X is no different. In fact, there are even some better spots.
Matthew Panzarino, from the website TechCrunch, said the differences are subtle and more technical compared to 8 iPhone Plus.
It highlights the ability to take photos with different levels of brightness, including high light, and image stabilization. This last feature even helps in macro photos, bringing better definition in the details.
In more common lighting conditions, the difference between the two models is small, but the on-screen visibility impressed panzarino:
“The OLED screen on the iPhone X makes any image look better, with more depth and color detail. Even new or old photos look equally better to look at.”

karen haslam, from british MacWorld, noted the benefits of having a bigger screen on a device easy to handle. A mixture of the screens of the other two models.
No Mashable, Lance Ulanoff choose the screen of iPhone X as the best screen of all iPhones. The minimal edges and their curves in the contours were quite praised.
Despite the initial strangeness with “the notch” at the top of the screen, Ulanoff describes the camera TrueDepth like the most recent innovation from Apple. According to him, some time after using the device, it is easy to get used to the detail:
"I'd be lying if I said I never noticed the notch, but after a while, I stopped noticing it."
Ulanoff still comments about the lack of the button "Home" and claims to have tried to press a button that doesn't exist on the screen for the first 24 hours. "It is a species of Ghost Button Syndrome", jokes.
