Had an issue with the button, drove up to belfast and was replaced no questions asked within a matter of seconds (I made an appoitnment of course) Seems to me like your just trying to convince yourself that it'd better to buy it here. My advise if you can get one in the USA , then get it there. It worked out at 870Euro for me instead of the Rip Off prices over here. Have had no issues at all with the phone but I am confident that should something go wrong whist it is still under warranty , it will be honoured in the Belfast Apple store

I would agree with the above comment related to iOS being more buggy than it used to be, but it’s not specific to the X and has been the case for a couple of years. But I don’t have any problem to report related to the hardware of the phone. If you can still have the same discount in a few months time, might be worth waiting for new models probably coming in Sep/Oct though so that your shiny new high end phone is the latest model for a bit more that 4-5 months?

ION08 wrote: » 100% but then again i haven’t had the phone too long. Doubt people will use the battery health to negotiate a lower price unless it is significantly below 100% which i doubt it will be by September. Even so, it actually makes sense to offer less for a phone with higher usage and a more degraded battery so I wouldn’t hold it against any potential buyer

FourFourFM wrote: » It’s a WhatsApp change. Nothing to do with iPhone X. On other devices you can hide notifications as well but it’s enabled by default on the X due to how well it works with FaceID. There’s nothing you can do to enable what you’re looking for unless WhatsApp change it in a future update. I wouldn’t hold out much hope because it’s been this way for a long time now on my phone at least.

FourFourFM wrote: » The image I’ve attached explains it. For messenger, it hides the content of the message but also the sender. For WhatsApp, it hides the content of the message but shows who the message is from. The person asking, wants it to hide the sender but it’s not something you can change. It’s something in WhatsApp’s court.https://imgur.com/a/6E8ZwOf
flexcon wrote: » ahah. Gotcha. Dam that is odd. I can replicate that now also. Must be a mistake somewhere. I'd nearly send that into Apple as that really is going against the whole point of preview being private.
flexcon wrote: » Interesting that it's only the iPhone X right? and just started. No other apps show this and seemingly goes against the whole point of Preview function. Wouldn't surprise me if it is something or a bug that isn't supposed to do this. I have an SE and a buddy and iPhone 8 plus and this issue isn't showing. No contact shown with WhatsApp. he is running fastest version, I am still on 11.3.0.https://imgur.com/a/QUach4i So if its unique to the iPhone X and whats app its just plain odd.
