Yah. I primarily use it on my bedside table, so it's fine for me.Cheers, no remote though is a let down.
The few times I've needed to control it remotely, I've (attempted to) use Siri voice commands.
In a word: INFURIATING

Get an Apple Watch, problem solved
Though they have made browsing your music on the watch a pain.
Looking online at potential upgrades to the refresh on the iPhone X in September.
After using the X since launch day I can’t think of anything they can do that would make me sell my X for the refreshed version.
Battery is superb, screen is great and FaceID is now excellent.
What can they do to make it better?

Better Face ID?
From all the rumours I’ve seen about the X not selling as well as expected, I do wonder what could replace it? My reaction to the £999 price was that it was too high, and although I love my X, I’m going to have to make it last 3 years as opposed to a new phone every year like I used to.
Better how? Have it recognise your face 0.2 seconds faster? It’s already fast, surely any improvements will be software based to allow more apps to benefit from FaceID.

Working at wider angles would be nice, but I can't see them being able to add anything this year that will make me upgrade my X.
I'll be upgrading to the Series 4 watch though, I'm still on a Series 2 and I want the cellular version.
Yeah, how face ID is going to work on roumored ipad? it would be useless if you could only unlock it while in portrait mode. it must be something better. For me they could make X thinner and lighter. This phone is like going back to old bulky phones.

People said exactly the same about Touch ID and v2 was miles quicker than v1. There’s always room for improvement.

I bought the cellular V3 as I bought it in the States and it was only about £30 per expensive. I assumed that there was some exclusive period for EE and it would then be available of all networks. Given the amount I travel I do I am pretty much tied to 3.
Turns out that the reason it is only available on EE is that they are the only ones with the right technology to enable the same phone number on more than one SIM. Until the rest upgrade their networks in the UK you will only be able to use the Cellular Apple Watch on EE.

I’m with EE so that won’t be a problem.
The screen is by far the best I have seen even compared to the S9. Watching the Greatest showman in HDR on it even puts my OLED tv to shame. Apple have tuned the colours to be accurate and vivid without the artificial look the Samsung phones give.
Screen is made by Samsung so it shows what could have been achieved with the S9 if Samsung were sensible and Android had better colour management!
To be fair I checked the cellular thing online as I’m with EE and the bands you require aren’t included in all cellular version. So buying from the USA wouldn’t work on UK networks e-sims.

Considering swapping my 8 for an X. What is the battery life like?
