That won't be possible. Your iPhone X has stopped receiving the latest iOS software updates and cannot update past iOS 16.7.10 due to hardware limitations. You need at least an iPhone XR to run iOS 17, but note that all iPhones that are compatible with that also can run iOS 18.

  1. This is a user to user forum. You are not addressing Apple here. As users, we have no say in what iOs updates a specific iPhone model gets. So we can't make iOS 17 available for your iPhone X.
  2. The iPhone X lacks the hardware to correctly run iOS 17. If Apple was to make it available, it would probably cause your device to lag and freeze and make it unusable.
