True.
I guess I'm going to let my iPhone X pre-order show up, even though I've already proved the 8 Plus doesn't work with Honda/Acura Bluetooth.
It has so much going against it before I even get it, despite the tremendous design.
*No gigabit LTE. We'll be seeing a lot of gigabit LTE by this summer, at least around here.
*No Band 71. By April - June, we'll have some of that around here.
*The 2018/2019 designs will have more sizes.
*The 2018/2019 designs will not have the famous "notch."
The last straw will be the Acura/Honda Bluetooth problem. If it doesn't work right, it's going back just like the 8 Plus.
If it works, I'll keep it even though I know it's inherently a bit of a waste of money.

Best thing about the X...Being able to put a phone in the front pocket of my jeans and not feeling it’s bulk (only mine ).

wanted the 1080p screen. Thought bigger screen better for the shit I do. I've been ok with it for the most part but I'm really looking forward to this X. It arrived at my work yesterday while I'm in Vegas :-/. Delivery said 11/14 so I thought that would be ok. Anyways getting back from Vegas tonite around midnight gonna drive straight to my work and pick it up. They locked it up in a special place for me. I'm still on the original 6Plus believe it or not so this is gonna be quite a step up. Dunno why I didn't go to 7 probably just didn't wanna deal with the "new phone" process. lol anyway.

otherwise the plus replaced my iPad 3 to read books on. Plus the better camera, duh. And I wouldn’t take anything extra for sort trips. I like the bigger screen. It’s nice to have a bigger screen in a smaller package.

Now that the X is giving me PLUS size screen with regular size phone, I am perfectly happy.

Have a safe flight and enjoy the phone.

Swipe down from the right side of the screen.
swiping down from the left gets you the notifications.

Also the X doesn't really have a bigger screen than the Plus.
Sure it's 5.8" vs 5.5 but the aspect ratio is higher. 19.5:9 vs 16.9 on the plus.
The width of the screen is the same as the non-plus model.
overall screen space is less than the plus. That's why Apple didn't include the big screen features on the X.
This is why I'm waiting for the rumored iPhone X Plus for next year. It'll have a 6.5" screen.

Any one seeing this weird iOS 11.1 bug where capital “i” show up as the “A ?” For example:
I️ first noticed when receiving a text from someone else and their capital “i” looked like that too, now mine do

Update: Apple's support staff is recommending customers affected by this bug use text replacement as a temporary workaround.
To do this, go to Settings > General > Keyboard > Text Replacement. Type in an uppercase "I" for the phrase, and a lowercase "i" as the replacement.
