Hello,
Yes. You can infect use the side button, formally the sleep/wake button to
start VoiceOver the first time the X is turned on. I set up the X without
any assistance from my sighted spouse.

Hello All,
I have recently received my beautiful new iPhone X. I love the design of
this phone. The glass front and metal sides are what I loved about my
first iPhone, the iPhone 4. I have been waiting for years for Apple to go
back to this design.
I have heard a ton of chatter about why the iPhone is not the phone for
everyone, and why the iPhone 8 is better, but I am extremely glad that I
went with the iPhone X. This phone has made me fall in love with the
iPhone interface and the sheer quality of Apple’s craftsmanship all over
again. I am completely blind and I have to use VoiceOver. The new home
buttonless interface was a trick for about the first 20 to 30 mins I had
the device. After that the gestures to unlock the phone and even get to
the Notification Center or the control center has become second nature.
Closing apps….
To close apps you will need to find the lower most part of the touch
screen (The Home Indicator), you will hear VoiceOver make a little popping
sound, and you will also feel the haptic feedback pop once as well. You
then start to drag your finger up the screen and you will hear and feel
another pop. This second pop will indicate that you have performed the
exit gesture properly, and you now should be back on your home screen.
Opening the App Switcher….
To open the App Switcher, you will have to find the lower most part of the
touch screen (Home Indicator). You will drag your finger up the screen
just like exiting out of an app, you will hear and feel the same
indicators as exiting an application, this time though you will keep
draggingg past the exit app sound and haptic feedback. You will then keep
dragging up to about the middle of the touch screen and you will hear and
feel another indication letting you know that you are now opening the app
switcher. Now you can use the typical gestures you normally use to close
apps completely.
Control Center and Notification Center…
Getting in to the Control Center and Notification Center is much like
exiting apps and getting into the App Switcher. Find the status bar at the
top of the screen and You will do a one finger drag down the screen you
will hear and feel the pop once your finger is on the status bar. Drag
down and you will hear and feel the first pop to let you know you are
passing the control center, stop dragging if you want to activate the
control center, keep dragging until you hear and feel a pop to get to the
Notification Center. Once you are in either the Control center or the
Notification Center you can use your standard group of VoiceOver gestures.
Over All I really love this phone and it has made me love using iOS again.
The buttonless world is upon us and it isn’t all that scary. Come in the
water is fine.
