IMO and as other outlets have stated I don't think they planned to release the X this year. You can tell a lot of this just by the way the software feels like it has been shoehorned in to work e.g. swipe down from the right for Control Center, swipe down from the left for notifications.

Those are both badly copied features from Android. On Nexus/Pixel tablets the top right was used for the system toggle, left was used for notifications. What I'm surprised by is that they didn't copy the "hard press where home should be for home", instead relying on swipe and press. The galaxy s8 supports both and the hard press is substantially more useful.
