And here’s how iOS 16 is doing on the iPhone X th-cam.com/video/0Z8BDke1Y8c/w-d-xo.html
yooo what’s up
I used to have an Android phone then I switched to iPhone 13 but for some reason I really wanted to have the iPhone 10.
And now, Apple drops support for iPhone X from iOS 17.
How did you set up your iPhone X home screen?
iPhone X was the breath of fresh air that the iPhone line desperately needed. The leap from top and bottom bezels to full screen display plus Touch ID meant a new era for iPhone. Crazy that it was almost 6 years ago.
I prefer old iphone design
still remember people hate that though
6 YEARS AGO? It felt like 2 years ago
@@sandosimbolon6993 yea haha
And almost no improvements for further iPhones. The only thing that has changed is a camera
I’m kind of glad that Apple still keeps their older phones supported like the X, XR and 11 series. Because you have people who want to get a iPhone but don’t have the money to get the newest phones like the 14 & 14 Pro Max and then it’s the fact they support their phones with iOS updates for a long and that’s awesome. I have a older phone myself that I got in 2021 (a iPhone 11) and it’s a pretty solid phone and I’m really liking it so far, the next phone I plan on getting next is going to be a 13 Pro Max.
Same.I replaced my 8 with the 14 plus not too long ago.Really love it
i have the iphone x but i could get the 14 if i would, but i dont see a reason
@@RiftX1111 get the 15 this Christmas
@@spaceman022 meanwhile I im still rocking my iphone 8 battery replaced
@@GEM-eq9zj would have done that but it was in rough shape and charging port was damaged lol
I am still using my X and it is still meeting my expectations! I had completely forgotten about 3D Touch 😂
3D Touch is the best thing. And i am still using too
I upgraded from the iPhone X to the 12 Pro Max mostly for the larger display and larger battery, and somewhat for the camera improvements like Night Mode. Plus, I tend to upgrade every few years anyhow. I’m very happy with my 12 Pro Max, though, and might keep it a bit longer than 3 years.
I use my phone for most things, including mobile games, some with near console quality graphics like CoD Mobile, Genshen Impact, PubG Mobile, Roblox and others.
Were it not for games and watching videos, I’d probably still be using the iPhone X because it was meeting most of my needs otherwise.
But I only have my iPhone for personal stuff and one small Windows laptop for work (company laptop).
Soooo.
I think my 12 Pro Max will still be big enough and powerful enough for another year or two, but I might need a new battery within the next year (if I keep it).
Actually, it’ll def be big enough, lol, as I don’t think I’d get anything larger (phone-wise) than the 6.7” Pro Max. I don’t think Apple would make the iPhone much bigger than this anyhow. And anything bigger than the current Pro Max would just be too big, too heavy. It took me a couple weeks to get used to the 12 Pro Max and I ALMOST returned it in the first 7 days as it was a lot heavier and bulkier than I expected.
But, in the end, glad I kept it! 😂
Oh. But my main point here which I totally forgot to post is that I DO miss 3D Touch (on the X)! 😢
Yes I miss 3D Touch
still using ios 15 iphone 6s
For me the main thing that would frustrate me is downgrading to 60hz. I had the XS, I recently switched to the iPhone 14pro. It’s insane how much faster this new phone feels just having 120hz on the display.
@@emilsecker7881 For sure, it’s like night and day. I’ve scrolled from time to time on my wife’s iPhone 11, and I don’t know how I ever lived without 120 HZ. I know it’s sounds really 1st world of me but it’s insane how much that makes a difference. The same exact feeling the first time iPhone got OLED screens.
Agreed! Went from an 11 to the 14 Pro and the refresh rate is such a huge upgrade.
Same. I had every iPhone since the 7, and when I upgraded to the 13 Pro it was a game changer. Due to financial changes for the worse I sold my 13 Pro and went back to the 11 Pro. My head hurt from the 60Hz at first.
@@emilsecker7881 No, the 13 pro is worth more money. And besides, the 11 is still supported.
@@emilsecker7881 He was low on money? You seem to be quite slow.
I bought the iPhone X as soon as it came out, just 3 months ago I switched to the iPhone 14 Pro, I have to say that it was a really good phone. The only problems I had were the battery (that frankly I never changed, my bad) and overheating. But overall it was probably one of the best phones I had so far.
I have the 14 plus … and it’s just as smooth if not smoother than any android 120hz… having 120hz doesn’t affect my day to day use in anyway .. makes no sense
@@user-pv7mn6le3x Android 60hz < Apple 60hz < Android 120hz < Apple 120hz
Nice i also had owned the iPhone X when it first dropped had it until this year. Figured id upgrade i just recently switched to the iPhone 15 Pro Max couple of weeks ago & i love it. Im Glad how long the iPhone X held up through the years definitely was a game changer when it dropped.
Whenever I watch a video of older iPhones being used, I always come away with the same conclusion: while they may not be as flashy as android phones of a similar era, they age way better and Apple always gets the basics rock solid
As much as I hate them for it, Apple is smart for letting Android phone makers play with gimmicks and then introducing them in "the Apple way"
iPhone 11 might have new software updates etc. But it still doesn't come close to the s10 plus or S10 5G by Samsung, arguably one of the best android series ever made in the history of smartphones. Even the iPhone 11 series feels laggy in comparison to the S10 series.
Not to forget, Apple iOS gesture-based navigation was inspired by BB10 OS, if BlackBerry didn't bring that on, with major phone reviewers saying it was way better than using the touch ID-based navigation button, Apple would have remained bent on Touch ID and wouldn't have considered Face ID. 😂
I also love the fact that Samsung pulled inspiration from BlackBerry 10 OS as well, in the lock screen notification 🔔 area.
Guess what? BlackBerry could have stolen the whole market and still can do so in my perspective, the BlackBerry logo can not be mistaken any time - any day. If they took ram/battery mah bumping up seriously, improve on-camera software and hardware, utilize the latest flagship processor, or opt for their unique in-house powerful processor and further polish their ui it would have grown on the world by now, it such a shame it died the way it did.
Hey, I am not labeling Apple a copycat or Samsung either, what I am trying to say is that sometimes, you need the inspiration to forge ahead.I remembered vividly when BlackBerry Z30 came out, I had one, before that I have owned previously a BlackBerry Z10, Q10, Q5, bold series, and curve series. To my surprise no one liked the gesture based navigation (my friends who uses an Apple iOS or Android powered device), fast forward Apple adopted it, introduced it with the iPhone X series and they fall in love with it.
The same people said they hate customization because Android (and some previous OS offered it), fast forward to the present day, they are all loving it, it is simply not because Apple did it better, it is simply because Apple did it.
I used to have a silver X and a gold XS, their designs were stunning. I now have a midnight green 11 Pro due to various faults with those other phones and it’s the perfect blend of battery life, comfort and camera quality.
The iPhone X is such an important iPhone in Apple’s history with the way it had layed the foundation for current iPhones 6 years later. Its right up there with the original iPhone, the 4 and 5S in importance
I have an XS max right now and I was planning to upgrade once the iPhone 15 comes out next fall. I love the way this phone feels and I’ve found myself used to 3D Touch by now, the screen is good because it’s larger size which also gives it better battery life too because of the bigger battery inside compared to the normal XS. The downsides are the camera becoming more outdated and iOS being a bit laggy sometimes. Other than that this phone is still really solid even today and I could still see someone buying one as a budget phone for a year or two.
Same situation here; very happy with my XS Max. I’m upgrading this year as well for USB-C, but I’m completely content otherwise (it will be hard to let go of 3D Touch though 😭)
I got the 14 Pro coming from the iPhone 11 and don’t regret a thing. I am very curious what my experience would be moving to an iPhone X though. Compared to the iPhone 11 the display would be better, but smaller, and the cameras would be far worse in low-light situations. Main thing for me is I use the cameras on my iPhone all the time, and the 14 Pro offers so much more flexibility and the 48MP mode offers such amazing image quality. Not to mention I just love the 120Hz display.
The square design is def better for smaller phones, I went to the 13 mini and have enjoyed it very much coming from the 13 pro max 👍🏻 I had the iPhone 4,5, 5S with the smaller box design and the 13 mini really brings that back and it’s a huge breath of fresh air love it
I like the flat edges of the 4 and 5, not the 13 mini and I had both. Now I am enjoying the se 3
3D touch is definitely something I'm going to miss whenever I upgrade (using XS max still).
Yeah, they should have never removed it fully. My old Samsung Galaxy S9+ also had 3D touch, but it was localised which makes me wonder why Apple couldn't have also implemented the same and just leave it at 2 spots for the torch and camera.
My favorite was the IPhone 6s, I absolutely used it until it wasn’t useable anymore, and I remember everyone in college got the new iPhone X when it came out and in the iPhone world, it was a game changer! I had that 6s for a good 4 years, it went through some roughness and it impressed me with both performance, comfort from holding it and how it felt in my pocket, and with how much it survived. I upgraded to the XR i think in 2019 and had it for about 2 years and loved the price, a good transition for me from the home button to face ID, and had to upgrade to a 12 pro max when my xr fell in a pool at work. I recently upgraded to the 14 pro max, been 3 weeks now and i really enjoy it, but going from a 4s with the squared edges to the 6s, i fell inlove with the rounded edges and still miss it. The squared edges are ok, but to me personally, the rounded edges felt easier to hold, but im loving my 14 pro max so far!
Im still rocking my X from when they launched lol. Its starting to show its age but it still feels new if that makes sense. looks and feels like the “next big thing”. love it
As an android user my whole lofe, i switched to iphone x 2 weeks ago and i don’t regret a thing about it, replaced only problem it had was the battery that i replaced and now it’s great i enjoy it a lot
I had a 13 mini, had some bugs and sent it back, I went to it from a iPhone 6 which was an upgraded but saved for a iPhone 7 plus. I loved the size, design and just the feel.
Love this video man, i enjoyed the video a lot
i was using an XR for the last 2 or 3ish years, just recently switched over to a 12 and i personally am SO glad to be rid of the rounded off sides design. In my hands it just makes the phone more slippery and harder to hold onto, even with a case. The squared off side design lets me get a nice solid grip on it, a lottt like the old iPhone 5ses i wished i had as a kid
I got a 5s when I was like 11 I paid for from working was the best phone I ever used well and the original SE but there old news now, I liked the curved edges better they do get annoying or can feel cramped in the hand over flat edges but I feel it feels more premium over the block like shape it offers more hand curve and comfort at least for me but I agree in some term with you hope they bring the curve to the se 4
Funny how you talked about bad battery life on your X. I had a 12 mini before I upgraded to the 14 Pro Max. My 12 mini had fine battery life at the beginning as I wasn’t a heavy user, but as time went by I sometimes had trouble making it through the day especially at the last month before I got the 14 Pro Max and OMG the battery life is just f ing amazing on the 14 Pro Max… Like I can sometimes finish my 2nd day with moderate use above 20%… Seriously, such a huge upgrade from my 12 mini.
I’m on the 11 Pro Max and it’s still a beast!
8+ still going strong 💪 although the new cameras are probably what will make me upgrade eventually, but even then it’s only edge cases where I would need anything better than the 8+
Lol same with me going strong with my8+ but waiting for. A upgrade after many years iPhone 15
I still have the 8
8+ had horizontal Home Screen even.
@@Zackhasacat sure did but I never used it. I have the 15pm now and it’s so much better
Yeah, I don't have my 8+ either but I think it was cool. Got a 15p now. Bigger than the 8+.
tnx for the nice review🌸 I just bought an old X and I gotta say, the video on filmic pro looks sweet. I'm going to use it for my B rolls.
I guess it was one step before apple started going crazy with the digital oversharpening. It has a vibe... it's smooth, not aggressively processed and very functional. I prefer that look over my 11 and 13 Pro.
It’s so cool that Sam Kohl was in Drew’s video at the beginning. The new ginger Hair is something I have to get accustomed to though
The iPhone XS Max in gold was the most gorgeous smartphone ever created! The amount of people blown away by the color and design was staggering. I hated the notch but the design was incredible.
this was the first video i've seen from you, the skit was great!
I agree with almost everything you said, I had an iPhone X since 2018 (that had a battery change 2 years ago) and replaced it by a 15P a couple of weeks ago. iOS 16 wasn't kind on my iPhone X, it became slower, was overheating and apps would stutter often so it wasn't snappy at all, but everything else you mentioned was on point for me.
So I switched back to the iPhone from a pixel. (Family green blue bubble issues.) I had the SE 3rd gen and found it lackluster. A customer came into the store yesterday and sold me her X. I replaced the display, battery, and repaired the Face ID. I found the OLED to be exactly what I was missing. Sure the SE has the nice Touch ID but I’m getting older and my glasses are out of date. So this just made my world far better.
I just upgraded from iPhone X which I had from its launch month, to 14 pro yesterday. I miss Force Touch! And as you said the screen has no burn in. And my wife’s iPhone X also has no burn in.
I’m currently on an iPhone 13 pro max, but I still use my old iPhone 8 as a work phone. I haven’t noticed much difference in performance when accessing TH-cam or Social Media when using either one.
Still life in the “Old Dog”📱
Nah that’s the best intro sketch by far m8, I’m pretty sure you’re acting is gradually improving😂👍
stumbled upon this video and honestly if apple went back to this size with a squared chassis i wouldn’t mind going for this. i have a 12 pro max and while i like stuff like the camera and the battery i have to admit is a big phone to carry around.
nice video!
Loved this video! So engaging.
Having to send off my Z Fold 4 for warranty, I have had to switch back to my old iPhone X, which from time to time I would use as my 2nd phone and it was fine with simple tasks.. but as a heavy user using this phone as a main phone again has been rather painful.... battery is really bad (my battery health is specifically is at 76%) and any heavy usage not only overheats the phone (which was happening 4 years ago already) but is gets quite laggy. In the end it's a nice humbling experience and makes me appreciate my newest phone more
I think the IPhone X was the phone that put them over the top compared to other brands and that design was a game changer and still has resemblance in their newer phones.
Still rockin the original X. Recently replaced the battery and feels like new again 😊. I still like the small phones thought. If I want bigger screen I just use MacBook 💻
I recommend the iphone 13 mini! It gets 7 hours of screen time! And has a 15 bionic!
rockin with 6s
Still using my iPhone 10S Max. Got it brand new when they first came out and have not really felt the need to upgrade. The phone is still snappy and does everything I need it to. I kind of forgot Apple removed 3D touch since I don't use it that often but it still is a nice feature to have. The only real complaint I have now is that my battery has degraded since I got the phone and I sometimes have to charge the phone multiple times a day as a result. But a battery replacement could solve that issue since I am still using the same battery I got the phone with.
Get a new battery
If you have 79% and under you should replace your battery.
@@emilsecker7881 You didn’t have to agree it’s literally a fact lol
Time to make an appointment with Apple to get a new battery.
Me too 😊
I used iPhone X just little over 5 months before upgraded to XS in 2018 and use it for almost 4 years. XS served me very well, super reliable and yes the battery endurance wasn’t that great but forgivable as the phone is way lighter than current pro iPhone line ups.
In 2022 finally upgraded to iPhone 14 Pro. It is a huge leap of upgrades and yes, sure the camera is superb. However I miss the old days of iPhones with natural and subtle image processing. I’m disappointed with all enhancements that automatically applied on each pictures that I took with my iPhone 14 Pro. I constantly find my self shoot in RAW or turn on live photos to choose other keyframe without any enhancements applied.
I totally agree with the apple logo haha i do miss the 3D Touch I had it on my iPhone XS and it was so cool. I now have a iPhone 13 Pro Max and love the battery since I’m on the go a lot. Captures amazing video quality and pictures as well.
My daughter still loves her iPhone X. I love the vertical cameras. I sold my 13 and went back to my 11 Pro Max because I hated the squared off frame of the phone. And I love my Apple Watch SE first gen. The SE still rocks! No need to upgrade :)
I had the iPhone X for a year. Every phone since then is dramatically better than it. I constantly had screen dimming issues that it was so hard to see outside. And the battery life is horrible. The best thing about the X was the haptic touch as you mentioned and the small light weight
very proud of my silver iphone X right now, it’s still working like a charm there’s only two things i could complain about and that’s the battery and the camera but they still work so i’m not upgrading any time soon
I personally have a Xs Max, 2 iPhone 13 Pro Max and 2 14 pro Max all full active and have service. But the one thing I really noticed, on the Xs Max the volume sounds like typing clicks, camera shutter sounds, and lock sounds, are so much more clearer over better sound.
I still got my iPhone XS Max and I love it! Using my iPhone child now! It is my child. Still works like a charm! I have had the phone since it's release. So basically 5 years, a little over since it's release! I won't be upgrading any time soon due to my low income, the iPhone I got is just fine, and unless there's a critical issue that comes up I won't be upgrading any time soon.
🎉hello from Romania 🇷🇴. Been watching your channel since you had about a thousand subscribers. 🎉
I have a se2 and was thinking to switch to a xs.
Thanks for this video. I have an iPhone 10 and thought I HAD TO upgrade. Since I watched your video I realize that I can get a year or two more from this iPhone. I have no problem with poor battery life - I bought a power bank for emergencies but it’s seldom used. I charge up as and when I need to. Love it!
With how big they’re making the iPhones now they should bring back 3d touch
Or allow for shorter animations
just wait for the iphone ultra with M3, it will be a micro ipad
@@eomoran You actually can change it in accessibility I think
@@alanperez5694 I just checked there, I can’t seem to find it. But that would be massive if true. Something I miss from android. I’m a 2speed Andy, these animations are borderline cancerous
i commented this as a response to someone else here but it applies as a standalone comment so i'll go ahead and post it here:
i'm a new iphone user, and since i'm not a person of money (yet) i could not afford a newer model, so i purchased a second-hand iphone x. really impressed with how NEW it looks and feels like even though it's second hand and a model that came out five/six years ago, and not one of the bests currently. it rarely lags, has a very decent camera, it's comfortable for my tiny hands (i'm only 1.51 m/5 ft tall so my hands are small), and more. my only complain would be the battery (but i understand that's a normal thing on iphones + this one doesn't have a battery in perfect condition) and still it lasts; and also having a social circle of android users, being the only one with lightning port is a bit inconvenient but that can be easily fixed by just bringing my own cable which occupies 0 space inside my bag. i'm impressed and i think i'll stay on this side of the fence for now. all of that thanks to a 2017 phone.
adding:
design wise? the iphone x is beautiful. i liked the 11 as well and that was my dream phone (in lilac) but when i had the x in my hands, in this space grey color, i fell in love. it's not insanely big, it's pretty basic looking, soft around the edges, and i LOVE IT. as an artist with ever changing feelings, i love a blank canvas and i feel this is what my phone is. i can easily slip a phone case with a specific design over it and customize it (while protecting it) according to the way i feel: if i want something simple i can just put a silicone case or a clear one and that's it, and if i want something more elaborate or with a design i can just put on some of the cases i have.
The emergency contact joke on the intro. haha
By the way, thank you for also making your contents in podcast form. I really do appreciate it a lot
I prefer the round edges. It was much more comfortable to hold rather than a boxed off edge. The flat looks more sleek but not very good to hold
The only that that sucks back then was trying to put a screen protector it without having one that either doesn't adhere all the way or one that partially leaves some of the screen exposed.
The new one though is god to use providing that you get a case for it.
I’m always surprised that people forget to say how much thinner the iPhone X is from all the newer ones. I regret upgrading still after 4 years.
Dope video! ive got a Xr and ive still got 88% of battery health from the original battery and i still get around 9 hours of On screen time. I just got it about a month ago and im loving it.
lucky, my iohone xr is shutting off and over heating
i recently upgraded from a X to a 12pro (got it super cheap refurbished) and yea everything what you said. the x was amazing but it def had its flaws. i had it since launch so the already bad battery gotten a lot worse to a point it didn't even last for half a day. the camera was also just not that good. additionally i have to say it was bit slow in heavy use since it heated up super quickly and than thermal throttled. in normal use its still super fast tho, its incredible if u think about how old it is. (shows you how far we have gotten and that the need to upgrade kinda disappeared)
but also like u pointed out the shape was just better in the hand tho i do like the new designs visually more. (interested how it will evolve in the next one)
i was planning to buy the 13 but that was just not enough reason to upgrade when it was new and the same goes for the 14, especially with the huge price increase. (here in Germany the pro models went from 1000€ which already was expensive, to now 1300€ with the 14pro. not even talking about the massive inflation over the last year) no thank you!
so 12pro it is for now.
the 12 fixed most of my problems with my old one, much better cam and battery and faster on top. magsafe is actually really cool feature too, just missing 3d touch tho.
tbh I'm not sure if I will upgrade to the 16 or so except they really do something big. i was always someone that wanted the newest tech but man the differences between new models have just gotten so minuscule, while the prices just keep rising.
Yep exactly the differences are so minor especially for me as someone who just makes a calls and do one photo per week. The prices and inflation are insane like you said, here in Slovakia 14Pro start around 1100 € so I also bought older model.
In my opinion, the IPhone X(or XS series) is the last IPhone which was actually designed cleanly and actually looks really nice, don’t get me wrong, the new phones still looks nice but it just doesn’t have that same feel to the X or XS series. I think it’s one the best IPhone design ever.
Agree
iPhone X is my first iPhone and I love it, still using till today. Of course the only issue with older phone is the battery, anything else works fine. Huge respect to the view you want to mention, just enjoy the tech that do the job. Laughing at those who are chasing "the latest" :))))))))))))))).
its been a good thing for me to appreciate the old tech since the atart of year
Agreed on the rounded edges. I don’t think iPhones needed to go back to flat edges, but it’s not terrible to hold at least
love using the iphone x, it’s not got the small screen my previous phone (iphone 7) had, faster and looks more modern with the use of the dual cameras and full body display
XS still doing well. Only annoying complaint is the camera blurring way easier on newer iOS versions. Battery needs charged twice a day, but solid experience.
What you mean with camera blurring ?
i used mine until recent when i got a 14 pro since my 11 was crapping and i loved it the battery wasn’t as good as my 11 but it was good no problems with me with a new battery i could use it perfectly fine
Skits are getting good Drew :)
I love my IPhone XS. It was very cheap, it has a stainless steel frame, a small size which fits in my pocket and have everything I need
My iphone 14 is way better then your iPhone
I have a gold iPhone XS Max currently. I have had this thing for 4 years (I bought mine in 2019). I’m finally retiring this 📱 after 3 years of caring an ice pack around with me every summer and the constant black/load screen crashes. I think it is time. It has allowed me to share experience and capture memories for many years now but now I’ll be upgrading to the iPhone 15 Pro Max (can’t decide between the white or blue titanium) and I will have that phone for many years as well moving forward ❤
I like the blue 😊
My fav was the XR. Great battery and curved sides
I was happy with my iPhone X. I bought it new when it came out. About six months ago I had to replace it with a newer 14 because the charging port wore out on it. So I couldn’t charge it anymore. And honestly, going from an iPhone X to an iPhone 14 I couldn’t tell the difference other than cosmetic. So you don’t have to upgrade your phone every year because nothing really changes. Hopefully I’ll get lucky and get five years out of this one.
The iPhone X/XS was THE perfect size for me. I never liked large phones and I find the new pro form factor to be too large taking after the XR size. Not willing to go back to the X/XS for that reason alone but I do miss that size.
I have the XR and I love it. Had the 13 mini, headaches, eye strain, motion sickness.
still rocking the xs with my apple watch series 4! no problems at all!
iPhone 7 Plus has had also the Dual 2x Camera But I never liked to Zoom anyway. The Main and Wide Angle are more important for me.
Recently switched my 7 to a 12 and feels amazing
My first iPhone was the Xs, that I bought back in 2020, and I feared that I might have OLED burn in. To this day, it still has not had any burn in. But my Pixel 2 has burn in now, despite being careful.
That skit at the beginning was hilarious 😂
loved this guy and his mindset, subscribed instantly
I have the 13, wish I’d gotten the 11 or XR when I last needed an upgrade. The rounded edges are a lot more comfortable.
lets trade for my 6s lmao
I just upgraded from my iPhone X today but I’m really glad how long my X was able to last and he will be missed :’)
I'm an Android guy, but when the X launched it almost convinced me to jump ship. It's one of (if not the most) beautiful phones I've ever seen.
When they revealed it back in 2017 I was big apple hater. But when I saw the silver X I told myself: I want this. And yeah, now I have it 😀 I want to upgrade, but don’t want to get rid off this X. Perfect size, great for one hand use. It looks amazing, with nice wallpaper it looks very elegant. But now it is showing it’s age. Bought iPad Mini 6 and everything is instant. But the X is getting more and more slow. Camera is good but yes, that dynamic rande isn’t the best. I still love it, want to upgrade, but don’t want to stop using it. There is something special about the X. My Silver buddy will always have special place in hearth.
So what changed your mind

Have a iPhone 14 Pro and still miss my XS. Mainly 3D-Touch. Also perfect weight.
Yeah I recently made the switch from X to 14 Pro and besides cameras and battery life, the X still holds up, to the point where I almost didn't want to sell it. The big thing for me was Google Maps, though. On the X when using turn-by-turn navigation in Google Maps I would get constant freezing. Like the whole phone would freeze up and become unresponsive for up to 20 seconds or so. I blame Google more than Apple for that, though. I think Drew uses Apple Maps (or Tesla built-in nav), so I doubt he'd come across this specific issue I had.

@@emilsecker7881 Battery health was at 96% during the crashing. I don't think it's unreasonable that a 5 year old phone is simply unable to handle the demands of modern apps. There's a reason people not on contracts will replace their phones after a few years. They are just insufficient for the amount of resources modern apps demand.
Naw that phone is not fast or snappy and now you have 5G moron
Honestly even though i upgraded from my X, i still miss it. The design is still one of my favorites
my brother still has his iphone x and other than teh battery life and storage size, it's still a great phone, I miss the 3d touch. Home screen buttons haven't felt the same since.
I like the rounded look a bit than modern angular. Angular design looked amazing on iPhone 4 but at larger size it doesn't fit so well.
I had my damaged iPhoneX in my car due to me moving around a lot. One day my car got broken into and they stole my iPhone which happened to be my first IPhone😭 I had plans to fix it in but now that’s gone oh well. I appreciate your video randomly popping up in my recommended 💯
Every single one of your points is my exact experience with my iPhone X
If I didn’t get ghost touch and tempted by Foldables, I would still be using it today.
Now on a 14 Pro, and I just don’t like it as much as the good old X
I still use a iPhone X & it works great. I usually keep my iPhones for 5 years, and that's after it been on the market for 2 years so I can get it at better price. So for me, a phones lifespan is about 7 years before it becomes unbearably slow. I plan on keeping this iPhone X at least until the fall of 2025, when the iPhone 15 releasing with USB-C has been out for 2 years as USB-C is actually something I want out of a new phone. Funny enough, I just bought an iPad 9 (2021) on sale this week after using an iPad Air (2013) which I purchased in 2015. Honestly, features are usually not a good enough reason for me to buy a new device, a slow device is what gets me. Planned obselocene is how they get me! I will say the feature that sold me was the concept of a smartphone with the original iPhone, the Retina display for the iPhone 4, larger display & Touch ID on the iPhone 6, Face ID, larger display, & lack of a button on the iPhone 10, and now USB-C on the iPhone 15.
still using 8 yo 6s
Currently using an iPhone XR with the White Smart Case and it’s amazing. Yea yea I have all the new stuff but downgrading is kinda fun
8:28 I’ve had my iPhone X since basically day one and have the original battery in it, at 72% max capacity, still works fine, but does need to be charged regularly if used for more than a couple of hours, also I noticed a few years back that my iPhone speaker at full volume playing the day some as another iPhone X with newer/better battery that my sound was less, so I figure the iOS etc does something to stop full sound capability to help battery life.
Also when I charge and use the phone at half or more brightness it’ll auto dim my screen fully while charging with nothing I can do to change it till it decides, but also noticed the back/battery heating up big time, so another battery life saving thing. FYI I have had heavy use from the phone also, but with it no longer updating to the newest iOS I decided to get the 15 P M plus I went from the iPhone 5 to the X so a jump to 15 seemed perfectly fitting, with it being my fav number🤷🏼♂️. But having the new 15 and it’s lasting so long just feels a bit odd not needing to charge so often and with less use of my X it now last longer before it needs a charge, obviously lol.
But also didn’t notice the touch button difference nor the face unlock being possible from landscape on the 15 and not on the X even after having the 15 for 3weeks, thank you for that little mind blower 😅
I have never really wireless charged as I did once and it was slower than wire and made my phone heat up like nothing before while in lock mode, side note I also have auto lock off, and always have it in a 360 case for protection, but I never getting to see the beauty off it is a downside, but would be a lot worse off if I hadn’t.
I find the camera is a very good one until you see anything basically better thus compared to my new 15 it’s crap but it’s still a decent camera in best settings and live mode helps.
To the chip with me having the original battery and it being highly degraded at 72% I have seen times it’s taken longer do stuff that it used to do like half a second faster, but unless you use a new X or newer iPhone I don’t think anyone would find the iPhone X slow or unresponsive.
As I said about my sound being reduced, I forgot to mention because of that I tend to hear the sound come more from the bottom/main speaker than I do the top one these days, there is still sound but to hear it over the main you have to put it to your ear, but again original battery at 72% this is why it’s bad. But I do remember the original sound was good and loud enough to hear doing most things, I,e you could still hear what you were watching or listening to at full volume while next to the kettle at half or more boil whereas now I cannot, but definitely a good phone to have, maybe less so for anyone that likes certain qualities like better/louder sounds, my 15 is so loud I have to keep it low most of the time, but I love the sound for when it’s needed, and for camera I like better, but for those less into such this is a perfect phone, or for those who want something they care less about breaking maybe or to give to someone younger.
the biggest problem with the iphone x in 2023 is just the battery and how hot it gets, it overheats really easily, and the battery is atrocious at times, and I even went through the effort of replacing the battery lol
The X? Heck I still use a 6s and have no issues with it. Having the headphone jack is sooo nice and makes things so much more convenient plus having force touch is a nice bonus.
I got burn in on my XS Max from maps, I have the maps IO permanently on screen albeit not that noticeable, but I do a lot of miles and always drive with maps on for keeping track of traffic and timings.
I currently have the iPhone X but I'm getting the 15 on Monday hehe honestly huge leaps in upgrades are really fun imo. My 64GB X has served me well but I do think its time esp bc I want certain ios17 features (which is not compatible)...and I also have 68% battery health LOLLL
I actually am a huge fan of the X though like I love the size, the feel, the look. I really had such a good time with this phone. I had the iPhone 5 before it LOL
I still have the iphone XS as a daily today and it works perfectly fine expect for the battery
Still rocking a SE from 2020, which I bought 4 weeks ago for 200€ with 128GB and a new battery. Perfectly good phone and I do not see any reason to buy a 1000€+ phone anymore, because as long I can do anything I want on my phone I will keep it.
Yeap, the A11 is a great chip 🥲
And Thank you for the speed test and talk more about 🙌⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Regardless if you have the iPhone XR or not, you should do a video comparing why you’d choose the x over the xr or vice versa since we are in a tech drought. Interested me as I would consider the xr to be a downgrade from the x but not as much as an 8
the xr is better than the iphone x….
The introduction was the best! The twins made me laugh 😂 LOL! Big thumbs up for the iPhone X!
I’m still using iPhone X, i used to get an upgrade every other year but stop from iPhone 7, since Face ID launched in iPhone X I bought a new one back then and when iPhone 13 launched I thought I need to upgrade and took away the case and screen protector to enjoy the beauty of the phone and now still thinking if I’m going to upgrade onto iPhone 14.
i miss this phone, it felt so good in the hand
I got rid of my iPhone X last year only because it started to run slower. I have a 13 Mini now. Nice being able to type one handed
My iPhone XS Max broke a few months so I upgraded to the iPhone 14 Pro Max but I could’ve easily kept the XS for a couple more years. The only inconvenience was the battery life
Great vid. I am still using the SE1. After a new battery ($50 installed) it is like a brand new phone. Just It is so small nobody is bothered by my street photography ... I just wish it had ten times the 32GB memory. 🍺😎
