If you are one of the millions who've waited for the launch of the latest iPhone, then you have been observing the possible new features of Apple's flagship phone. The launch was done as the first event of the Steve Jobs Theater, a physical homage to the founder and visionary of company which celebrates ten years of the launch of the iPhone.
iPhone 8 and 8 Plus was impressive with the design with a glass and metal finish which makes it look very fragile but they assured everyone that it is more than aesthetics. It has reinforced materials which makes it tough, it looks smoother and it also provides another function to amplify wireless charging with or without a case.
Now, its seems that the spotlight was first wit the iPhone 8 and 8 Plus, but it was quickly over shadowed by the announcement of the 10th anniversary version called iPhone X (pronounced X which is still confusing for me). It is also shares some of the qualities of the two compressed into a display-centric facade which eliminated the iconic home button.
Now let us take a look at the specs of the iPhone 8 and 8 Plus first so we could know the key similarities between these flagship phones.
Apple iPhone 8 specs:
64GB - USD699 (around Php35,700)
256GB - USD799 (roughly Php40,100)

But all these beautiful features, it was quickly overshadowed when they revealed the Apple iPhone X. The decade of the charismatic iPhone rushed count to ten to bring a great leap from the time it was launched. Now let us take a look of the specs...
Well it does have almost the same features like the iPhone 8 but the facade + features is really sexy and rad design, the home button gone, facial unlocking, animoji, almost bezel-less screen. Some are not that very new, but they might have banked on the technology then made a better version for the phone. It is nice but not that mind-blowing.
Though we are given a option, an expensive new iPhone, and a more expensive iPhone that actually depends on your budget. I do hope that all the variants are well received since they have distinct features. But most likely, we will gravitate to the iPhone X.
