Apple reveals its new iPhone X and it is the dearest handset yet at £999

-

TECH giant Apple has revealed its latest iPhone handsets, including the most expensive phone the company has ever made.

Due to hit shops on November 3, the iPhone X will cost £999 and is the first iPhone to feature an edge-to-edge display and wireless charging.

It was introduced alongside the cheaper iPhone 8 and 8 Plus during the company’s first live event in its new Steve Jobs Theatre in California.

Apple chief executive Tim Cook paid tribute to the company’s late co-founder Steve Jobs as he opened the event. Mr Cook also used Mr Jobs’s favoured “one more thing” line to announce the iPhone X.

The Apple boss called the device the “future of the iPhone”, and announced it will feature facial recognitio­n technology called Face ID.

As well as being used to unlock the device, Face ID technology can also be used to create Animoji – animated emoji controlled by the user’s face.
