2 Ways To Power Off The iPhone X

The iPhone ‘Ten’ is the first iOS device that doesn’t pack a Home button, in order to be able to display edge-to-edge. Because of this, a lot of the commands and gestures traditionally associated with an iPhone are different. We’ve already shown you 5 iPhone X gestures that replace the Home button’s functionality.

As reported, on the iPhone X, Siri is called either vocally, with the help of the ‘Hey Siri’ feature, or by pressing & holding the Side Button (former Power Button), the way you formerly pressed and hold the Home button. Because of this, the command for turning off the OLED iPhone also changes. Previous iPhone models where able to bring up the ‘slide to power off’ screen with the help of a long Sleep/Wake button press. To shut down the iPhone X you have to use a two button combination!
