iPhone X it is expected by many people, less so by one of the co-founders of the company Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC), who is still alive, stating that he will not buy the product. More exactly, Steve Wozniak, the co-founder of Apple who will be present tomorrow in Romania, stated in a recent interview that he is satisfied with iPhone 8, which looks like iPhone 7 or iPhone 6, and that he will not buy the new phone model that Apple will release next week.
iPhone X brings a lot of changes compared to the previous models of the Apple company, but not for Steve Wozniak, who prefers to wait to see what the customers' reactions will be. Steve Wozniak's wife will buy the iPhone X on launch day, so he'll have the opportunity to use it anyway, so he won't be able to say he hasn't tried new technologies, even if it won't be his main phone this year.
The iPhone X is the first new Apple mobile phone that Steve Wozniak will not buy on launch day, an unfortunate first for the company he co-founded. Wozniak is known as a technology-hungry person, eager to test the latest gadgets, and with the new Apple phone he will have the opportunity to do so before his wife gets to configure it for her own use.
Steve Wozniak won't buy the iPhone X on launch day
iPhone X has Face ID implemented by the Apple company as a biometric security system that we should use instead of the defunct Touch ID. Steve Wozniak is quite circumspect about the usefulness of facial recognition technology, so he prefers to wait to see what the first reactions of users will be, but he will definitely test the function on his wife's phone after the purchase.
"I'm happy with my iPhone 8 — which is the same as the iPhone 7, which is the same as the iPhone 6, to me. For some reason, the iPhone X is going to be the first iPhone I didn't — on day one — upgrade to. But my wife will, so I'll be close enough to see it."
The iPhone X had the Face ID function discussed by Steve Wozniak on several occasions, most likely because of the problems the system had in the official presentation. Despite this, Apple had almost 2 months to solve the problems discovered for Face ID, so it is very likely that the phone will provide a satisfactory experience for global customers.
iPhone X will definitely be criticized in one way or another by a lot of people after the launch, mainly because of the high selling price, but everything will calm down quickly. This is Apple's most expensive phone, it will be subject to enormous expectations, but the world must understand that nothing is perfect, and despite the price, this American product will not be flawless either.
