The Face ID function assures to scan your face for verifying you as the user and guarantees no deceiving by your photo or even authentic 3 face mask.
Animoji – Animated Emojis
Introducing, Animoji! Apple introduces this animated emoji, named as Animoji in iPhone X. Animoji, is basically an animated versions of the emojis you send and recceive to your friends or family. It uses the same technology of Face ID hardware to biomaps your facial expressions and creates custom 3D versions of the emojis in realtime before you send them to someone.
Powerful Full Vision True Tone Display
The iPhone X screen comes with 1125x2436 OLED display which is known as Super Retina Display which has some advantages. You are able to see a dark grey screen with usual LCD screen, not letting you visualizing the black pixels. With Apples’ OLED display and true tone technology, the dark colors will appear darker and text will look better.
For the reason that the Home button is vanished, the Power button has drawn the power to perform many functions. For instance, long pressing will work for Siri and double clicking it will be used for Apple Pay.
