Number third on my list is iPhone X, which the company has unveiled on the occasion of its 10th anniversary. The device is really good but the company has put over price on it, and also the design is not up to the mark. As at the front of the device, we can see a bump above the screen which is not good to see. And it also misses the fingerprint scanner, which is the most convenient way to unlock your smartphone.
