as I understand it the major differences are the face recognition and the type 
of screen.  The guts are apparently the same in both.

Wow,

I am impressed with the way how apple managed the face recognition for people 
with visual impairements. 

Now, the face recognition is the unique difference between iPhone 8x and iPhone 
X?

Is no there any better processor?

Thanks

Jonathan, One question I don’t think I’ve heard a clear answer to, How would a 
totally blind user interact with the face ID with a minimum of aggrovation?

Hi Sieghard and all, yes, my iPhone X is arriving tomorrow. Because of the time 
difference, it means I’ll have it before they arrive in the US. I’ll be 
unboxing it, setting up face ID, playing with new gestures, making a purchase 
and even doing a recording from the phone on The Blind Side Podcast 61. When 
it’s published depends a bit on when the courier delivers, but I expect it to 
be late Thursday night US Eastern time. So even if you’re getting a phone on 
launch day, if you’re in the US you should be able to hear the podcast first.

Pablo,

 

You should definitely buy the iPhone X, it is the ultimate smartphone and blows 
every single Android phone completely out of the water.

OK, I’m just jerking your chains, but there has been a lot of discussion about 
the iPhone X since the September Apple keynote, the phone was available for 
preorder last Friday and will be available in stores and start shipping this 
Friday (November 3). Of course there is no way you would get one at this point 
probably until the new year because Apple is not at all able at this point to 
supply as many phones as are in demand despite the steep price tag.

I am sure some on the list will be able to snag one, for one thing Jonathan 
Mosen is planning to buy one simply because that is his business and once he 
gets it I am sure he will publish a very detailed and well-produced Podcast on 
all it’s features.

For now just rest assured that both Face Id and all the gestures have been made 
accessible by Apple, this iPhone has no more home button hence no more Touch 
Id. The only way to unlock it is either by entering a passcode or by training 
the phone to recognize your face. In case you didn’t follow this, Apple says 
the chance somebody else could unlock your iPhone with Touch Id was 1 in 50,000 
and they claim that with Face Id this is now 1 in a Million. This of course 
does not apply to identical twins where Face Id can apparently be fooled.

Enjoy your new iPhone X.

 

Regards,

Sieghard

Subject: gesters for iPhone X

 

Hi guys,

 

I have a few questions about the new iPhone X. 

I know that this phone has not been released, however I believe that you have 
found some information about this new device.

I understand that this phone doesn’t have a home button. I also understand that 
to activate siri people needs to flick on the side, and to close an app do 
another gester. Using voice over, how this gesters are going to work?

I don’t know if this topic has been handled on the list. If it is the case, 
could someone let me know?

Thanks
