I don't think apple is looking to make the X as a huge-mungous block buster, but instead a limited edition tenth anniversary type of thing. A celebration of just how far things have progressed since iPhone 1.
It also seems to be a trial balloon aimed at a certain audience, and not the masses.
Apparently unlike most iPhones the X will take a lot longer to build each one... like only a few hundred a month versus the usual thousands per month.
Will it be a flop? Probably not. Being available in 50 countries, there's probably plenty of folks who'll buy it.
It seems at the 'kick off' demonstration it did exactly what it was supposed to do... lock out.
Apparently several people had tried to get the phone that to turn on using their face and it was set to recognize that poor fellow who ended up embarrassed... and only him. By the time somebody handed it to him it had placed itself into a safe mode. So when you read how it failed at the big shin-dig that's why.
I'm an android user who aint bothered by the $1000-1500 price tag one bit. I just prefer android stuff.
