The much-anticipated smartphone from Apple's stable is finally here. After series of leaks and speculations, Apple finally revealed the iPhone X at a launch event at the newly introduce campus of the company Apple Park, which was originally envisioned by Steve Jobs. As per Tim Cook, the entire campus replaces 5 million square feet of asphalt and concrete with grassy fields and over 9,000 native and drought-resistant trees.

The new super flagship iPhone X packs in some superb technologies that were never seen before in any other iPhone.

"Over the past decade, we've pushed forward with innovation after innovation, bringing us to this moment, when we can create devices that are far more intelligent, far more capable, and far more creative than ever before," said Tim Cook while introducing the iPhone X, which he believes will carve the path of technology and innovation for the next decade.

The iPhone X has a glass-body and "surgical-grade" stainless steel around the sides. The smartphone is water and dust resistant at a microscopic level and comes in two colours - space gray and silver.

It features the highest pixel density (458ppi) that has been seen any iPhone. iPhone X also has, what Apple calls, a super retina display. Its true tone display is also the first OLED display in an iPhone.

As was suggested by earlier leaks, Apple has, indeed, ditched the home button in iPhone X and the phone now unlocks with Facial ID. Users can unlock the screen just by looking at the screen, thanks to the advanced face tracking technology. The Face ID also works with Apple Pay and third party apps. Since the home button isn't there anymore, users can now go to the home screen with just a swipe from the bottom of the screen.
