FRESNO, Calif. (KFSN) -- "X" marks the spot for Apple users!

The latest iPhone is now on sale-- the iPhone X is priced at $999 and can be purchased at Apple stores across the world.

More than a dozen people braved the cold in Northeast Fresno earlier Friday morning. They hoped to be among the first people to get their hands on Apple's newest device.

Local early birds camped outside the AT&T store hoping to get one of a limited number of phones available at each location for in-store purchase.

The iPhone X comes with major changes, including a 5.8-inch Super Retina display and replaces the home button with face-detection technology.

While some people waited for hours for this new phone Ashley Macias came into the store to just pay her phone bill but left with a new phone. She said a couple guys ended up leaving and not wanting to buy it.

"I'm super excited. It's a lot smaller than the plus that I have, but the screen is just all screen. So I am just excited. It's quite a bit smaller. I'm excited for all the new (features)-- camera mainly."

Macias said she really got lucky coming in when she did because she did not have to wait a second in line. She's also excited to show off her phone to friends who pre-ordered it and will not be getting their phones for another few weeks.
