A look at the iPhone X release from around the world

Justin Herrick
3 Nov 2017

This is the iPhone you’ve been waiting for. When Apple released the iPhone 8 in September, the lines outside of Apple Store locations around the world weren’t very long. That can’t be said for today’s iPhone X release. Massive lines formed outside of Apple Store locations in the United States and beyond. It was more like the iPhone release everyone expected, especially since Apple is celebrating the product’s tenth anniversary.

We’ve put together a list showing just some of the scenes outside of Apple Store locations worldwide.
