iPhone X: Hardware Reset - Performing a Restart

With a hardware reset, you can get an iPhone X that no longer responds to your inputs or expresses various other problems back on track. The hardware reset restarts all the components in the device and allows them to start all over again without any errors.

iPhone X: Perform a Soft Reset First

To restart the device's hardware, you need to perform a reset of the entire device. The soft reset is the most common method.

1. You instinctively already perform a soft reset more often than you can probably imagine.
2. For a soft reset, you only need to restart the device, which you initiate by long pressing all side buttons on the smartphone.
3. Once you notice the "Power Off" slider on the screen, move it to the side and wait until the smartphone is turned off.
4. After a few seconds, you can turn the device back on by applying a long press on the smartphone's side button until the Apple logo appears.
