RE: it's here, the X

Great Report, Simon. I look forward to your next one, especially your Face ID experience. Yes, the phone is surprisingly slim when compared to iPhone 8 Plus. Based on your statement, may we assume that you are using a pass code to unlock your 10? or are you, "going commando", (big smile) with

Hi Alex, Yeah I still find it odd but I really have to say it's not as bad as people might think, For a start it was crap as I couldn't get it to work for me. Now although it's only been 24 hours I've pretty much got it It's a case of tap on the screen to wake the device then slide firmly

Hi Mark, Well I have to admit that I didn't get it until 5:30pm lastnight so when I got to the setting up face id section I skipped it as the light was getting low and it seemed I couldn’t' look directly at the screen. So I'll leave that until the weekend and set it up then. Interesting the

Re: it's here, the X

the no home button is fine. Like simon said, once you get use to it it’s fine. You place your finger, start sliding up, the first feedback you get is to close the app or folder, if you keep going you get the app switcher. I think it will come down to personal preference, I like the no home bu

Hello All, If you're like me, you may find it much easier to read/see white text on a black background. This also holds true for distinguishing the icons on the iOS launch pad. This is to say, it's easier to see the icons when placed on a dark or black, solid, background. For many years, I ha
