help iPhone X FAQ
How does Face ID on the iPhone X work for authentication?
Face ID uses a TrueDepth camera system to project and analyze over 30,000 invisible infrared dots on your face to create a precise 3D depth map. This mathematical model is then securely stored in the device's Secure Enclave to authenticate unlocks.
Did the iPhone X come with a physical home button?
No, the iPhone X completely eliminated the physical home button to accommodate its edge-to-edge Super Retina OLED display. Users instead navigate the phone using gesture controls, such as swiping up from the bottom to return to the home screen.
Can the iPhone X charge wirelessly?
Yes, the iPhone X was one of the first Apple devices to support Qi wireless charging out of the box. It can also fast-charge via its Lightning port, reaching 50% battery in about 30 minutes when using a USB-C power adapter.
When was the iPhone X released and what did it cost?
The iPhone X was announced in September 2017 to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the iPhone. It officially launched in November 2017 with a starting price of $999, making it the most expensive baseline iPhone at that time.
