Switch off iPhone X - so it'll work

As soon as the new iPhone X is on the market, some users have a question: How can you turn it off? In this short practical tip, we will explain it to you.

How to turn off iPhone X

Switching off the latest Apple offshoot is very simple:

• To switch off the smartphone, you must simultaneously hold down the side button and either the volume down or the volume up key until the slider appears. Then slide it into the off position.
• Alternatively, you can go into the settings and scroll down to the bottom under "General". Select the "Switch off" item here and the slider appears.
• If you want to turn the iPhone on again, hold down the side button until the Apple logo appears.

Surf tip: Wirecutter tests cell phone cases for the iPhone X.

So that you have something of your iPhone X for a long time, you should protect it with a case, a flip case or the like. However, the selection of protective covers is large and the price is not always the best indicator of quality.

• Our CHIP partner Wirecutter tested 70 cases for the iPhone X. In the detailed test report you can read which model did the best and which sleeves are also recommended.
• The test also specifically addresses different types of sleeves. There are models that offer particularly good fall protection and those that have an integrated wallet.
