Thanks you, Chris! This is the only damn preview/review I’ve seen that addresses Reachability, which is something I use constantly on my 7 Plus and was worried about with the X.

[robertokellyramos]

Thanks for the tip with the screen coming down with the swipe in the black bar didn’t think it was there.

Is iphone 8 plus getting that wallpapers to ? They are beautyful

[watchreport]

@engadget You can swipe up to close the apps . Just press on then till the X pops up and then swipe up on them. You don’t have to tap on the x.

How about using Face ID outdoors? The Verge are reporting problems with consistency.

I do have a question. Do you still get the double bars ontop of the phone when an app is using your GPS? That's one of the biggest problems I have with the iPhone.

I think Facebook and Twitter will explode with all of these animoji lol

[westondaniel]

Is the stainless steel the same color on both phones or shinier on the silver? I can’t find any info anywhere.

[jnursing]

Uhm... dude yes you still can swipe up to close apps in the multitasking pane.

[etns]

How did you get the phone? Hasn’t even came out?

[glaziainc]

iPhone X's depth camera is perfect for facial mocap, animoji are just the beginning!

[shaungilmour]

Please can you comment on the haptic feedback engine? How does it compare to the iPhone 8? Thanks

what about the AssistiveTouch ? is it available ?

[hrthykw]

what does the black colored ring finger nails mean? just curious

[everythingzone]

If I have a black background, will those pixels be turned off? That would be awesome!

[gabikourie]

First thing i want to ask about the face ID if bloomberg report was right or fault if they are actually reduced the accuracy to ramp up production
Second about YouTube and videos why'd not blacked between the notch and use the remaining display ??

In the Multitasking, you can also touch it and when you see the red circle, you can swipe up

[parisbff]

You can swipe up to dismiss apps. You should check it again. I’ve seen videos where youtubers do it so...

[adwaitsharma]

Does it still have the stereo speakers?

[jhnwoo]

the multitask screen, when you have call up the "-" sign, you still can slide up app to kill app. (i saw it in ijustine video)
