Apple just announced that the iPhone X - its most advanced smartphone to date - will be available in Apple Stores starting Friday, November 3, at 8:00 a.m. local time. Of course, we already knew that the handset would be released on November 3, but now we have an exact hour for the launch.

Apple says the iPhone X, aka iPhone 10, will be in stock at its stores for walk-in customers, who have the chance to buy the handset right away on launch day. Nevertheless, there will likely be stock shortages, so Apple encourages fans to show up early. Besides launching in the US, the iPhone X will be available in 54 other countries around the world starting November 3.

Pre-orders for the iPhone X will begin this Friday, October 27, at 12:01 a.m. PDT - both via Apple's online store, and through the Apple Store app.

As a reminder, the iPhone X is quite expensive, costing $999 (64 GB model), or $1,149 (256 GB model). Both are offered in only two color variants - silver and space gray. So, do you plan to buy the most expensive iPhone yet, once it's available in your region?

It's great phone but so expensive

great on paper

So the design of the X is the huge selling point from what i hear? Camera and chip is the same as 8's right?

For Apple products selling point is always the same. Rich people just don't know to spent money.
