Time Magazine listed the iPhone X among the top 25 inventions of 2017 for its new display and Face ID.
Apple’s anniversary edition was listed as “A Smarter Smartphone” according to the magazine’s rankings.
“I look at the design as something we really wanted to do since day one,” Apple’s senior vice president of hardware engineering, Dan Rico said.
There were a lot of controversies surrounding the device since it was released but the demand has remained unaffected.
Bloomberg earlier reported that Apple could not fulfil the demand for the flagship device which is why they decided to reduce the accuracy of the Face ID, something which Apple denied.
Samsung, arguably Apple’s greatest smartphone rival, released an ad mocking the iPhone giant.
Other inventions on the list include Tesla’s Model 3 electric car, elevators that move sideways, a mug that heats up the coffee itself and a hijab that empowers Muslim athletes.
Fidget spinners and the Nintendo Switch were also on the list.
