Since there is no official announcement of Apple about this question, there are some hypothesizes regarding this action. The first guess is that iPhone X, meaning 10, is named to mark the iPhone\u2019s 10th birthday. For this anniversary, Apple released three phone: iPhone 8, iPhone 8 Plus and<a href=\"https:\/\/www.pricepony.com.ph\/blog\/iphone-x-opinion-different-iphone\/\"> iPhone X <\/a>in the same year. This action breaks Apple rules of releasing a new model of iPhone every year.<\/p><div style=\"float: none; display: block; margin: 0 -10px; text-align: center;\"><!-- ph_pricepony_article_incontent_1 -->\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\n     style=\"display:inline-block;width:336px;height:280px\"\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-4796993490224996\"\n     data-ad-slot=\"7528541080\"><\/ins>\n<script>\n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script>\n<!-- ph_pricepony_article_incontent_2 -->\n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\n     style=\"display:inline-block;width:336px;height:280px\"\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-4796993490224996\"\n     data-ad-slot=\"2964262507\"><\/ins>\n<script>\n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script>\n<\/div><\/p>\n<p>Another hypothesis is that the use of &#8216;X&#8217; instead of 10 implying this phone is a special edition phone. iPhone X is probably the most impressive jump of iPhone throughout ten years, since Apple call iPhone X is the smartphone of the future. In this X version, the traditional home button is removed. This means that Apple intends to move to an edge-to-edge screen. Besides, The introduction of Face ID is one of the coolest features of iPhone X. This way of security is at the moment the safest protection for users.<\/p>\n<p><picture><source srcset=\"https:\/\/www.pricepony.com.ph\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/iPhone-9-1-e1510219864916.webp 582w,https:\/\/www.pricepony.com.ph\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/iPhone-9-1-e1510219864916-300x129.webp 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 582px) 100vw, 582px\" type=\"image\/webp\"><img src=\"https:\/\/www.pricepony.com.ph\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/iPhone-9-1-e1510219864916.jpg\" height=\"250\" width=\"582\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.pricepony.com.ph\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/iPhone-9-1-e1510219864916.jpg 582w, https:\/\/www.pricepony.com.ph\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/iPhone-9-1-e1510219864916-300x129.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 582px) 100vw, 582px\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-63161 size-full sp-no-webp\" alt=\"iPhone X\" decoding=\"async\"  > <\/picture><br \/>\nThe last hypothesis today is behind the culture. If you want to sell a product across multiple cultures, you need to understand the cultures. The number 9 in Japanese stands for suffering and agony. This is probably the explanation for Apple&#8217;s decision to jump to iPhone X. This hypothesis is similar to the number 13. To some places in the West, this number is considered a symbol of bad luck. Therefore, people usually avoid using this number.<\/p>\n<h3>iPhone X: The more rumor it gets, the more popular it becomes<\/h3>\n<p>At the moment, there is a lot of rumor and guesses about iPhone 9 and iPhone X. Whatever the hypothesis is, Apple is still having a good year from the flagship iPhone X. Do you have a better theory?
