What should I go for iPhone X or 8+?

I'm planning on paying my own phone bill soon. I have a friend told me that iPhone 10 is already out. When I went to the phone store I assume iPhone SE was the 10 bc my friend told me that it a promotions.

I hit up my friend. He told me that the X is the 10. I shouldn't get the x cuz Apple comp. Rush the phone. If I get the X I will have a lot of manfunction errors with the phone. Wait for the 10S or 10+ to be on the safe side.

I can be wrong but I remember seeing X and 8 came out the same date. Like how 5s and 5c are out the same date. I think it the special edition version of the iPhone.

Decide what you want, android or ios

First off, your friend has to be better informed about things

"I assume iPhone SE was the 10 bc my friend told me that it a promotions"
--not sure what you meant here.

Apple did not "rush" the phone, had that been the case it would have come out earlier in the year vs about 3 months after the 8 & 8 Plus & there wouldn't be a current 2-3 week wait period for it. There are some issues yes, but they are minor & already mostly taken care of already.

If you want to wait until Sep/Nov 2018 then by all means or you could get an iPhone X now.

No, they were announced on the same day but released about 3 months apart. The 8/8 Plus in September & the X in November.

The X is sort of a special edition yes, hence why it was named X not 10 (for the 10th anniversary of the iPhone).

To summarise an answer
X if at all possible
8 Plus otherwise

I like the 10 it's nice
