A member of Apple staff pose with a new Apple iPhone X smartphone showing new emoji features in Apple's Regent Street store in central London on November 3, 2017 after it opened for the first sales of the new smartphone. Apple's flagship iPhone X hit stores on November 3, as the world's most valuable company predicted bumper sales despite the handset's eye-watering price tag and celebrated a surge in profits. The device features facial recognition, cordless charging and an edge-to-edge screen made of organic light-emitting diodes used in high-end televisions. It marks the 10th anniversary of the first iPhone release and is released in about 50 markets around the world. / AFP PHOTO / Chris J Ratcliffe

Perhaps you remember when you saw your first smartphone and felt a tingle of amazement. It could access the world's libraries, play movies and music, text friends, take pictures – oh, and make phone calls. 

Perhaps even then you had the foresight to ask the really tough questions: Can I use the phone to send a cartoon picture of a smiling pile of poop? And is the cheese in the right place on the Android hamburger?
