The iPhone X has gained popularity for a ton of good reasons [1]. The Apple [2] device, which has a retail price of $899 [3] with no monthly contract, offers a stainless steel design, high-quality photos, and even Face ID [4], which makes your face your security password. But if you recently got an iPhone X, you may be wondering one simple thing: how do you turn it off?

One of the most obvious characteristics that the iPhone X has that earlier iPhone models do not is its all-screen design, which lacks the traditional home button [5]. And with the absence of a home button, powering down your phone might be a bit confusing. And while the process is slightly different than before, it's still easy nonetheless.

First, press and hold down the side button, which is on the right side of the phone, and one of the volume buttons, which are on the left side of the phone. After pressing and holding these together [6], a slider will appear at the very top of your screen that says "slide to power off." Drag the slide over to the right, and voila, your iPhone is completely powered down. If you need to turn it on again, all you have to do is press the right side button until you see the Apple logo pop onto the screen.

This new way of shutting down your phone may feel a bit strange at first, but you'll get the hang of it in no time!
