Apple's catchphrase, "Think different" is so well-known that it's not often used in its original context, more often pulled out as an ironic dig when the company does something users don't like (eliminating a certain jack comes to mind).
In the case of the iPhone X, though, the irony disappears. Users will definitely need to think differently as they encounter an iPhone with no home button, a front camera that can scan your face, and a "notch" -- all firsts for the iPhone. The iPhone X doesn't just have new features; it introduces an entirely new way of interacting with the device.
SEE ALSO: Is the iPhone X's facial recognition twin compatible?Will owners get used to the new features quickly, or will they be a continual source of frustration? To answer that question, the MashTalk podcast spoke with two of the only people outside of Apple who have used the device for more than a week: MashableChief Correspondent Lance Ulanoff and BuzzFeedPersonal Technology Reporter Nicole Nguyen.
Both Lance and Nicole were part of the first group of tech reviewers to get their hands on the iPhone X, using them for a whole week before publishing extensive reviews. They've both now been using the phone for 10 days, and are probably two of the only people outside of Apple who can say with authority whether the iPhone's new paradigm is something you'll love or hate.
Besides telling us everything you want to know about what it's like to use the iPhone X, Nicole and Lance let us peek behind the curtain at Apple's process of seeding phones to reviewers, which was a whole different ballgame this time around. They also have some surprising thoughts on whether this iPhone really earns its $1,000 price tag.
