[QUOTE="mrplow, post: 1777145, member: 38928"] Well, I'm a week in with mine and still love it. I'm going caseless. I have since my 6s. Even for the slippery fish that was the iPhone 7. But I find the glass and steel really quite 'grippy'. Yes I'm worried about dropping it but it's so tactile in use that I don't want to interfere with that. FaceID almost vanishes into the background. In fact I find myself staring at my iPad now wondering why it's not unlocking! The hidden notification content that appears when you look at the phone is a nice touch. As is the password completion using FaceID. I've found it to be very reliable and works from a greater angle than I expected when just sitting on the desk. The screen, speed and battery life and cameras are the standouts for me. Even coming from the 7 it feels like a big jump. Must be mind bending coming from a 5s/6. It's not perfect, but what issues I'm having seem to just be software based. I'm not a big user of notification centre but I do use Control Centre a lot and the swipe down from the top right is awkward. It works but it's just in the wrong place from a reach perspective. But that's just software so I'm hoping there may be options further down the line. Front Portrait mode either works really well or fails comically. But it's in beta so there will no doubt be updates for that. [/QUOTE]
