mkoDet har gått et tiår siden den opprinnelige iPhone ble utgitt. Mitt eget vintage håndsett fra 2007 har sett bedre dager, men det går fortsatt sterkt. Så 10 års iterasjon og utvikling har ført oss til denne hyped up jubileumsutgaven. Men er den nye iPhone X (ti) alt det er sprukket opp til å være?
Glass og rustfritt stål
Selv før du slår den på, er det klart at denne iPhone er litt annerledes. Laget av det ‘mest lange varige glasset noensinne’ og ‘kirurgisk karradert rustfritt stål’ (Apple Uber-markedsføring snakker) har det et førsteklasses utseende.
Når jeg snakker om følelse, leste jeg ofte at aluminiumstøttede iPhones er glatte og vanskelig å holde. Jeg har aldri funnet det, og jeg har alltid gått naken. Jeg er en fast tro på at å dekke opp en iPhone med en $ 2 stykke plast er hellig. Imidlertid må det måtte endre Dekker opp den ganske tilbake, så jeg kjøpte denne Spigen Ultra Hybrid Transparent Case, men det er en styggedom og jeg har tatt den av allerede. Det føles litt som russisk roulette uten sak, med kunnskap om disse reparasjonskostnadene.
Den nye glassryggen er litt gripere, og sammen med den stålrammen gir den ekstra tettheten den en betryggende solid følelse, den er 0,2 mm tykkere enn pluss. Det 2,5D buede glasset møter rustfritt stål på en mye mer sømløs måte enn tidligere design, og hjelper til med å gjøre det ‘sprut, vann og støvbestandig’ (IP67).
Stålbåndet er polert på min sølvmodell, lik stål Apple Watch, mens Space Grey -versjonene får et lag med matchende farge ved hjelp av dampavsetning. I motsetning til tidligere iPhones har begge fargene nå svarte frontrammer.
Det er alt skjerm
Er det? Rammene er slanke, men Galaxy 8s med uendelig visning er i det minste på sine sider.
Den nye 5.8 ″ ‘Super Retina HD Display’ er den første OLED på en iPhone. Den har en oppløsning på 2436 × 1125 ved 458 PPI og dets høye dynamiske rekkevidde (HDR) -visning støtter Dolby Vision og HDR10 for din Netflix og iTunes filmens glede. Som med alle OLED -skjermer, er kontrastforholdet utenfor listene. Det minner meg om min aldring, men likevel elsket Pioneer Kuro Plasma TV.
Uavhengig av pikseldimensjonene er punktstørrelsen, og det er slik brukergrensesnittet ser på skjermen og hva den kan passe på den. Med Tens 3x -bildeskala -aspekt som er 375 poeng store med 812 poeng høye. Det kan sammenlignes med 414 innen 736 for Plus -telefonene (her er en flott illustrasjon av de forskjellige piksel- og punktstørrelsene på hver generasjon av iPhone).
Så selv om 5,8 ″ -displayet høres større ut enn 5,5 ″ av pluss, har X et smalere sideforhold (19,5: 9). Legg det til de avrundede hjørnene, sensorhuset samt ‘hjemmeindikatoren’ (linjen nederst på skjermen som gir brukeren et hint på sveipfunksjonen), og du sitter igjen med et utvidet trygt område for utviklere.
I motsetning til pluss -telefonene, roterer ikke ikonene når du er i landskapsmodus, og du får ikke 2 -panelversjonen av e -postappen osv. Hvis du vil ha maksimal skjerm eiendom, spesielt i landskapsmodus, kan pluss -modellen fortsatt være den du trenger
Det er sannsynligvis mye mer nøyaktig å tenke på X som noen der mellom 8 og 8 pluss. Imidlertid føles skjermen fra en pluss -modell langt fra et baklengs trinn.
Ved 120Hz er berøringshastigheten på denne skjermen det dobbelte av andre iPhones, og i motsetning til noen tidligere modell kan du berøre hvilken som helst del av skjermen for å vekke enheten.
Apple hevder den beste fargekraftnøyaktigheten noensinne for en iPhone med P3 og SRGB -fargespekter tilgjengelig. ‘True Tone’ Tech bruker en ny omgivende lyssensor for å justere skjermene hvitbalanse for å matche fargetemperaturen på omgivelsene dine. Dette varmer opp ting og kjøler dem ned etter behov og er subtile og behagelige. Først da jeg tok med meg 6 -årene i nærheten av den nye telefonen, var det virkelig åpenbart hvor forskjellige fargetemperaturene var.
3D Touch er fremdeles her. Etter 2 år, selv om jeg bruker det veldig lite, generelt for å rydde alle varsler og plassere markøren min i tekst. 10 -tallet startskjerm har nå hjelpsomt et lommelykt og CAM -ikon som bruker 3D -berøring for å raskt lansere dem.
Det vil være ventetid på at apper blir revidert for den nye utformingen, men med mange oppdateringer som kommer hver dag, vil dette ikke ta lang tid. Her er en før og etter eksempel på at den nedslitte podcast -appen blir oppdatert for den høyere skjermen. Du kan se programvarenesene systemet bruker til venstre før apper oppdateres.
Av høyeste kvalitet
Hakk har vært et av de største snakkepunktene på X. Det er spesielt åpenbart i landskapsmodus når du spiller video fullskjerm. Å sjekke ut 16: 9 videoinnhold griper faktisk ikke ut på hakket, selv om du kan velge å zoome til fullskjerm og miste litt av toppen og bunnen av videoen. Jeg fant å spille fullskjerm og holdethe phone one handed your thumb covers a lot of of the notch anyway. In portrait mode in apps with a black UI the notch disappears completely.

I’ve always thought of the notch as giving me a lot more screen rather than taking some of it away. While a lot of other modern designs have thicker bezels top and bottom Apple has maximised this area better than a lot of (with the exception of the essential Phone). Here’s a quick (badly) Photoshopped image to show what I indicate on the Galaxy S8 Plus.
So the notch can be considered to be reclaiming screen, rather than minimizing it, although it’s probably the aesthetics that a lot of object to. I’m taking a glass half full attitude to the notch, but of course ideally Apple could magic away all those sensors and have zero bezels.
Face ID
For now though the notch houses the normal suspects. The earpiece speaker, proximity sensor and light sensor. In addition it’s home to the 7MP ƒ/2.2 TrueDepth cam along with an variety of sensors and emitters that together make up the face ID system.
30,000 undetectable dots are beamed onto your face to create a 3D depth map. Apple say there’s now a 1 in a 1,000,000 chance of a random stranger being able to unlock a face ID equipped iphone compared to 1 in 50,000 for Touch ID. They’ve apparently worked to make sure the system cannot be fooled by photos or even 3D masks, unlike some of the joke facial recognition of its competitors.
You can bet your house though that the worlds hackers are at this very moment devising cunning plans to try and out fox the system. Sometime in the future we’ll find out how safe it is. For now the best low-tech way to unlock someone else’s iphone X is to be their (near?) identical sibling.
Setting up face ID involves a movement akin to drawing a circle in the air with your nose. This movement allows the system to capture your face swiftly and the setup process is faster than for Touch ID.
When you first use it to unlock the phone it seems odd that it does not reveal the home screen as is the case with the Touch ID operation. You need to swipe up to do this. There’s a reason though. face ID is ‘attention aware’ and it will unlock your device when you look at it with your eyes open (you can switch this off). That’s beneficial when checking out notifications as they reveal their details once you glance at the phone. If you have no notifications then you simply raise the phone and swipe up at the same time as you look towards the sensor. It becomes one fluid motion and feels like you don’t even have biometric safety switched on.
It works fine with both my sunglasses and the coated varifocal lenses of my regular glasses. It worked after I shaved, while I was wearing my big headphones and a hat. I wondered how this would work when the phone was in its cradle in the car and lying flat on my desk. In practise it’s fine in the car because it’s facing me, but less convenient on a desk as you do have to step your head over the phone. face ID does not work in landscape orientation and a friend also tells me it doesn’t work for him when he has a flourish mic across his face while flying his plane. On the upside no a lot more problems with wet fingers or gloved hands trying to unlock Touch ID. So pros and cons. I’d say after just a few days face ID is better in around 95% of situations and worse in around 5%. remember you can turn it off and use a passcode if you prefer.
The system absolutely replaces Touch ID and is used to authenticate Apple Pay as well. A quick visit to a filling station for milk and bread was a good test of the new way. now a double tap of the side button invokes the system followed by a glance to unlock before putting the phone near the reader. Enkel.
It will be interesting to see if all this hardware will be able to do anything similar to this cool Sony feature that can build a 3D scan of your head to place an fantastic likeness of yourself into games etc.
For now all that tech is employed for these ‘Animoji’. You capture your personal expressions represented by a variety of animated emoji and send them to someone who cares. Millennia of human development has led to the animated poo emoji.
Going Home
So with no home button how do you get to the home screen now? Well prepare to format and re-write 10 years of muscle memory. There’s now a new series of gestures to learn.
Swipe up for Home
Swipe up and pause for app switcher
– or – Swipe ideal / left on home indicator to switch between apps
Swipe down from top ideal for control Centre
Swipe down from top middle or top left for Notifications
In addition there are new button presses too
Apple Pay – double click the power button (now rechristened the side button)
Siri – long press side button
Power Off – Hold side button with either volume button
Screen shot – Side button plus volume up
Surprisingly the home gesture was locked in really swiftly and easily. some of the others may take a while longer.
EN11 Bionic CPU
There’s lots of new hardware here like Bluetooth 5.0 which must support 2 headphones connected concurrently if Apple enables it? The stereo speakers are louder too, I know this because I can still hear my podcasts over the noise of the kettle boiling in the morning. But the star of the show is Cupertino’s most current CPU.
The 64-bit 6-core A11 ‘Bionic’ has 4.3 billion transistors. four efficiency cores that are up to 70 per cent faster than A10 Fusion, plus two performance cores which are up to 25 per cent faster (the three-core GPU is up to 30 per cent faster than the last gen). The CPU can fire up all 6 cores when it really feels the need for speed.

It’s been benchmarked with a similar performance to a Core i5 MacBook. Although unlike a laptop the phone would not be able to sustain that sort of performance. None-the-less it’s an excellent feat in such a diminutive device. Apple’s custom-made silicon seems to be light years ahead of the competition, leading Tom’s guide to recently review the A11 powered iphone 8 with the headline, World’s Fastest Phone (It’s Not even Close).
So whats the need for all this power? Well besides making the phone feel exceptionally snappy, its neural engine utilises it for on-device maker learning tasks, avoiding the latency of a trip to the cloud and back and its associated privacy and safety concerns. Its 600 billion operations per second are employed for other new features like face ID and augmented reality. Oh, and of course the camera.
Ryggekamera
I skipped the iphone 7 plus so coming from a 6s Plus, this is my first iphone with dual rear (12MP) cameras. The bump on the rear is still there and is actually bigger than on my old phone.
The ƒ/1.8 large angle and ƒ/2.4 telephoto, both employ optical image stabilisation, the only iphone to do so (the iphone 8 plus has OIS its large angle lens only).
Apple’s new ISP chip, a lot more custom-made silicon, can recognise and optimise elements in your photo as well as supply faster autofocus and improved HDR shots (only the HDR shot is saved by default now). as with lasts years iphone 7, portrait mode supplies that big camera, shallow depth‑of-field effect we all love and it’s now available on the front cam too. new for this years 8 and X is the portrait lighting feature (check out Austin Mann’s superb review for a lot more details). Here’s a quick test photo in tough lighting conditions (this is not using the portrait mode).
I never use flash, ever. Det er forferdelig. this time however there’s a chance that might change. The Quad-LED true Tone flash now has slow sync, a feature that combines a slow shutter speed with a short flash pulse. This is especially beneficial at night and allows the cam to capture background detail instead of just blowing everything out in the foreground and leaving everything else black
The new HEIF format indicates smaller file sizes for photos (if you want to learn a lot more read this great article). Exports are still in JPEG to make sharing easy until the rest of the world catches up. You’ll need to be on macOS High Sierra for support of the newer format, or you can choose to remain shooting in JPEG if you prefer.
HEIF is a container that uses the High efficiency video Coding (HEVC) or H.265 standard. The phone now shoots 4K in up to 60 FPS. slow motion is improved too with up to 240 FPS available in 1080p now. smaller file sizes combined with 256GB storage on board (as much or a lot more than lots of SSD equipped laptops these days) indicates there must be no shortage of storage.
Trådløs lading
Replacing the aluminium with glass on the back of the 8 and X allows inductive charging for the first time on an iPhone. It’s been a long time coming, this is severe catchup for Apple.
