Personally, I don't like it. I stopped liking the designs when they remove the headphone jack. iPhone X just feels like a copy of a samsung which I despise. I've always liked their basic home button design, now it just looks like any other phone. Despite all my dislikes, i'll most likely still get one because I need a new phone.
I will not be getting it. Apple just takes it one step too far every new iPhone. The home button is the reason why the iPhone is the iPhone. The shape and design is what lets you know it's the iPhone at just a glance. Now you will not be able to tell what's the new iPhone and what's a 4 year old Samsung.
