As a brief introduction, we say that iPhone X (10) is one anniversary model, released 10 years after the first iPhone. Until this launch, the event took place at San Francisco, but with the inauguration Steve Jobs Theater (Copertino), it seems that this has become the new home of the iPhone.

During the launch event of the new range of Apple devices, after the presentation iPhone 8 and iPhone 8 Plus, which apparently did not impress anyone, on the screen of the scene from Steve Jobs Theater the message "One more thing…". It was the sign that the "cherry on the cake" was coming. The device that the audience and Apple fans were waiting to see, to discover its capabilities and innovations.

Since the first presentation images, the emphasis was placed on the new facial recognition function Face ID and design edge-to-edge totally new for a iPhone, drawn by Jony Ive (Apple Chief Design Officer).

iPhone X – Design / Dimensiuni (Size & Weight)

iPhone X comes in only one size version (we don't have one iPhone X Plus) and in two color variants: Space Gray and Silver. With the edges made of a aluminum alloy carefully finished, iPhone X can cope with the most demanding tastes in terms of elegance and refinement.

The dimensions are ideal to be buttoned with one hand. Especially since in iOS 11 we will also find one special function keys that will facilitate writing with one hand.

143.6 mm lungime, 70.9 mm latime, just 7.7 mm grosime and weighing 174 grams, the iPhone X easily fits into the line of mid-sized smartphones.

Make ID on the iPhone X

During the iPhone X presentation event, there was also a less pleasant moment for those from Apple. At the first live demonstration, which should have shown How to unlocked an iPhone using Do X ID, things did not go as they should have and in the end the PIN was needed for unlocking.

What is Face ID and how does it work?

Many have said that Samsung they came first with unlocking based on the facial fingerprint, but the technology used by those from Samsung proved to be put to the ground by a simple picture or a selfie, capable of unlocking the devices. It was a big failure for the Korean company. Face ID is something else entirely. Both as a scanning system and technology.

Face ID is introduced to increase the security new Apple devices. Currently, this feature is only used on iPhone X and is designed to replace Touch ID. Footprint. Thanks to the sensors and front cameras, which I presented above, TrueDepth Room has the ability to scan the facial lines and design 30,000 invisible points with the help of dot projector. These 30,000 invisible points will make up a 3D image of the face. During the Face ID setting process, the owner of the iPhone will have to rotate the head in a circle to capture all the lines of the face.
The device will be impossible to unlock by another person, no matter how much it resembles the authorized one. In addition, it is not a problem if foundation or other forms of makeup are used. Since it is a 3D geometric image, the color of the face and other elements that bring "design" changes do not matter.
With the help of infrared camera, Face ID can be both set and used on low light or in the dark.

Apple tells us that Face ID it requires "user attention" to work. If we are not looking at the iPhone or have our eyes closed, the device will not unlock.

The front camera of the iPhone X is truly revolutionary, which is capable of capturing images in HD quality even when we are in low light.

If most of the functions above seem familiar to you, one has definitely caught your attention. Animoji it is also a characteristic feature of iPhone X.
As can be deduced from the name, it is about emoji animate. able to take that much the girl's face, the movement of the lips, the expression of the eyes as well as user gestures. Thanks to the frontal sensors also used in Face ID.

With this new feature I can compose and send via imessages, voice messages with animoji.
It's a pretty funny feature, but it's currently only available on iPhone X and with a limited set of animoji.
