The editors didn't like
Design hasn't changed
Not a necessary upgrade
Pricey for a 5.8in smartphone
Hard to spot some of Apple's improvements
Starting price is far too high
No fast charger in-box
Scratches easily
Not much cheaper than the Xs Max
Battery life is a letdown
Very expensive (although still cheaper than XS Max)
Same design as last year
Price still high
Battery life not world-beating
Design not altered in a year
Still very expensive
Its battery life is the shortest of the three new iPhones and only incrementally better than last year's. Despite its still-rich price tag
Key extras such as increased storage
USB-C fast chargers and headphone dongles will have you spending even more

Abstract: If you ever watched schlocky '70s sci-fi show The Six Million Dollar Man, you probably remember the opening sequence, during which a faceless narrator describes building a man who is “better than he was before. Better… stronger… faster.”With the iPhon...

The iPhone 7 camera is still great. Here I actually prefer the iPhone 7 photo (left).Photo: Cult of MacThere's a lot more to this camera than I've covered here, but we're already at almost 1,500 words. If you own an iPhone X, the new camera makes the XS w...

bright and color-true OLED display, broad mobile network frequency coverage, impressive main camera, excellent craftsmanship, eSIM support (per update), dust and liquid-resistant
non-expandable memory, no headphone jack, restricted NFC, only 12 months warranty, mediocre telephoto lens

First-rate build quality, Excellent performance, Helpful camera improvements, iOS 12 is fantastic, Slightly more durable than the iPhone X
Still very expensive, Minute design changes mean old cases might not fit well, Incremental battery gains
To say that these are Apple's best iPhones ever isn't really saying much -- that's true of just about every iPhone release. That said, the iPhone XS and XS Max subtly improve on the important work Apple started last year with the iPhone X in just about ev...

We love Moment's battery case. It does add quite a bit of heft to the phone, but it has a ton of functionality. Just having it on your phone extends the battery life without any extra cables or work. The only downside is it doesn't work with external aud...
Two of the three new iPhones Apple announced last week are already available for preorder in a wide range of markets, and they'll be shipping to buyers later this week. You'll also be able to buy them in stores beginning this Friday, September 21st. That...
Smart HDR works well, Incredible detail in shots, More manual precision
Top-line specs similar to iPhone X, Low light shots not hugely improved, Portrait mode still has blurring
The iPhone XS is easily the best phone Apple has made. When it comes to its camera capabilities, it has had modest upgrades. While there isn't a whole lot of change, the inclusion of a new sensor really enhances the images taken. Couple this with a better...

Massive and beautiful OLED displa, Superfast A12 Bionic processo, Longer battery life than iPhone X, Improved cameras with Smart HDR and better boke, Split-view mode in certain app, Gigabit LTE
Fast charging still costs extr, More storage should come standard
The iPhone Xs and iPhone Xs Max are among the best phones you can buy, and if you've been holding off on upgrading your iPhone 7 or iPhone 6s, either one of these handsets will feel like a huge leap forward. The cameras are miles better — especially in lo...

Abstract: iPhone XS and iPhone XS Max reviews have hit the web, three days before the smartphones are released in stores. 2018 is what is known as a "S" year—hence the X S branding—in which Apple retains the same physical design of the iPhone, for the most par...
