Test Apple iPhone XS: an update without excess
Presentation
It is a revolution. Apple has not increased the price of its new iPhone Xs compared to the iPhone X. Since the launch of its first iPhone, the firm of Cupertino had always added between 10 and 50 € to the new model. Does "no increase" in 2018 rhyme with "no improvement"? We are not far from it. But as the saying goes: "you don't change a winning team". Because, it must be said right away, the iPhone Xs remains a solid reference in the market.
An iPhone X ? No, an iPhone Xs.
Ergonomics and design
iPhone Xs almost takes over the lines of the iPhone X. The Xs therefore has a screen with very thin edges that occupies about 82% of the front. A format close to that of the iPhone 8, but with a better optimization of space in sum. Unlike the gigantic iPhone Xs Max, the Xs is easy to operate with one hand. Especially since the new gesture linked to the interface launched at the same time as the iPhone X works very well overall.
iPhone Xs surrounded by the iPhone 8 and the iPhone X.
L'screen is still amputated with a part at the top for the integration of the notch. It houses the front photo module, a speaker, as well as the various components related to Face ID. This technology will definitely take the place of the fingerprint reader on the iPhone 2018 range. Apple is advancing an improvement of Face ID, but it remains quite discreet when compared with the iPhone X. Unlocking is quick, even if having to systematically slide your finger across the screen to complete the process can become tedious.
notch still present for Face ID, in particular.
Les cosmetic differences between the iPhone Xs and the iPhone X are very few. The set remains perfectly finished, with a metal rim and a glass back. Apple announces that it has reinforced the latter. No change in the button layout either. The volume keys keep their place on the left edge and the unlock button on the opposite edge.
An glass back that has been reinforced.
iPhone Xs retains the waterproofness of its predecessor, but improves it slightly. The Xs is thus able to withstand a 30 min soak at a depth of 2m. One of the big announcements at the conference that saw the birth of the iPhone Xs is its dual-SIM compatibility. However, with a nano-SIM port and an eSIM port, it will take some time before it can be enjoyed in France. Indeed, no French operator is able to manage this technology at the time of writing this test.
An port Lightning, for how much longer?
Apple still doesn't offer a microSD port to increase the amount of available memory. The 3.5 mm mini-jack, which disappeared when the iPhone 7 and 7 Plus was launched, is also missing. Great novelty, Apple no longer even provides a Lightning to mini-jack adapter... A piece of cable at 10 € that you'll have to buy separately from now on.
Screen
screen of the iPhone X was one of the best on the market and that of the iPhone Xs takes the same path. It features the 5.8-inch (14.7 cm) diagonal Amoled slab with a resolution of 2,436 x 1,125 px. The resolution is unchanged at 458 dpi. Perfectly sufficient for all the uses for which the Xs is intended. One of the advantages of the Oled is its ability to offer an almost infinite contrast ratio. In addition, the iPhone Xs enjoys a comfortable maximum brightness of 613 cd/m² and a light reflection rate of 7%. This means that it remains easy to read even in direct sunlight. Under the opposite conditions, the iPhone Xs is kind to our retina and can drop below 1 cd/m².
Apple is clearly at Samsung's level when it comes to color fidelity. On the iPhone Xs, we measured a delta E of 1.2. This puts the California smartphone in the category of model students. The color temperature is at 6,740 K, close to the expected 6,500 K. The True Tone mode, which adapts the color temperature according to the lighting environment, remains as pleasant as ever.
For To complete this good work, the iPhone Xs screen offers excellent responsiveness. We measured its touch delay at 40 ms and its persistence is zero. Thank you Oled.
Performances
In good high-end smartphone that respects itself, the iPhone Xs has very solid performance. The 6 cores of the A12 Bionic chip and the 4GB of RAM that comes with them do a great job. In use, there are no slowdowns, the fluidity is perfect when launching applications and the switch from one to the other is commendable.
Températures recorded after 10 min of Full HD video recording.
iPhone Xs doesn't get carried away by temperature rises. Faced with heavy tasks or video recording, its external temperature remains very low.
For the video game, the iPhone Xs is also a good ally. The iGPU integrated into the A12 is among the most powerful on the market, alongside Qualcomm's Adreno 630. No matter what games you play, this smartphone does it perfectly.
Audio
We didn't dare to think about it, but Apple did. After removing the 3.5 mm mini-jack plug - as on other competing smartphones - the iPhone Xs abandons its Lightning adapter. From now on, the only option when buying it is on the wireless headset side. Otherwise, you have to go to the cash desk and pay €10 for the adapter. As a result, we take the decision to limit the rating of this part to 2 stars. We had done this for the HTC U12+ and the iPhone Xs Max.
In As we don't have a mini-jack plug and adapter, we are not able to perform our usual battery of tests.
An design that remains elegant.
Les speakers are pretty good. They are powerful and quite accurate overall. Their positioning, one on the front, the other on the lower edge, allows them to offer stereo and in a nice way too. The slight distortion audible in the high frequencies at full volume may be regrettable, but it is still acceptable.
Photo
Sur the paper, the double photo module of the iPhone Xs looks identical to that of the iPhone X. A main module with a 12 MP sensor and stabilized optics opening at f/1.8 (26 mm equivalent) and a second module, also equipped with a 12 MP sensor, but topped by an optics opening at f/2.4 (52 mm equivalent), also stabilized. However, Apple boasts the merits of its main sensor, larger and with photosites of 1.4 μm against 1.22 µm for the iPhone X. This could potentially boost the iPhone Xs' performance in low light conditions.
An double photo module that progresses little.
In in daylight, we note a slight improvement on the iPhone Xs, with images that clearly gain in naturalness. The level of detail is very good for a sensor of such a definition and the warm colorimetric rendering, without being shrill, is appreciated. In these conditions, the iPhone Xs holds without any problem the comparison with the best in the discipline. Added to this is an excellent responsiveness, both for focusing and capturing.
In low brightness, the improvement is not obvious at first glance. You have to look at the EXIF data in the picture to understand what's new. The iPhone X triggered slower and had a lower sensitivity. The iPhone Xs now triggers at 1/15 s and reaches ISO 1000, allowing better freehand results than its predecessor. However, the result is not yet perfect, with a clear tendency to underexposure. At least the electronic noise remains under control and the Xs does not use too much destructive smoothing.
Comme on theXs Max, the rendering of the second photo module does not show much progress. The quality of the photos remains below that of aGalaxy Note 9 and the level of detail drops significantly compared to that of the main module. In low light, the main sensor takes over and a digital zoom is applied. The pictures are clearly degraded. This is an observation that we make on the vast majority of smartphones equipped with a module of this type.
Les two photo modules are always used to operate the portrait mode. A function that allows to create a background blur that has not changed much since the previous generation of iPhone. The only real novelty here is the ability to adjust the intensity of the bokeh by playing on a "digital aperture". A feature that has been around for a long time, especially at Huawei.
iPhone Xs allows you to record videos in UHD at 60 fps. A definition that few smartphones manage to handle properly. The Xs is doing very well and offers one of the best experiences we've seen. It's smooth during recording and playback.
For end on this part, the iPhone Xs offers very good results for selfies. Its 7MP sensor delivers detailed and well exposed images. The management of backlighting is satisfactory, but we can regret the low field of view of this front module.
Autonomy
iPhone X had pleasantly surprised us with its endurance. The iPhone Xs is announced with 30 minutes of extra autonomy. In practice, we can see above all that things haven't changed much, despite the switch to a 7 nm chip, which is supposed to be less energy consuming. The Xs is still able to withstand almost 2 days of standard use and will survive a big day of intensive use. We remain far ahead of the average results of the iPhone 8 or 7. We can't perform our SmartViser test on iOS devices and are forced to pull the good old Netflix video player test out of the box. A use in which the iPhone Xs holds for 12h12, a little less than the 12h21 of the iPhone X.

Until 1 week ago the iPhone 6 was my faithful companion, but now I needed a new smartphone. Since I already own some products from APPLE (iMac,MacBook Pro, iPad, Apple TV), it makes little sense for me to get a smartphone from another manufacturer. The setup is very easy, thanks to iCloud you have all your data like photos, contacts, apps etc. on your new smartphone. The workmanship is very good, the camera takes extremely nice photos. The Smart HDR function brings out the colors really well, the OLED display is razor sharp. What I am also impressed by are the videos in 4K and the slow-motion function with 240 FPS. The processor is extremely fast and I have not yet managed to bring the phone to its knees in terms of performance. Of course the price is very high, but let’s be honest…the competition is now also on a very high level with the prices, but you can still sell the iPhone XS for good money even after 2 or 3 years, updates are available from Apple for at least 3 or 4 years. So I will continue to buy APPLE products, because the whole package is right for me. FaceID is also a great function, the unlocking is extremely fast. Everyone who wants to buy a new smartphone should give the iPhone XS a chance. If you don’t attach so much importance to an OLED display, the iPhone XR is very well suited for you. It’s much cheaper than the XS, but also a little bit bigger (6.1 inch). Thanks for the fast delivery!
The phone is really great. I bought it as a successor for a Nokia Windows Phone because it is no longer supported by Microsoft and one APP after another is not possible. Since I attach importance to security I avoided Android (which has a short life time because of the short update support). The mobile phone is very solid, lies well in the hand. The camera takes really sharp pictures (but for photos I will still use my SLR camera with a good lens). The display leaves nothing to be desired and is easy to see even under incident light. But why only 3 stars? The reception is really bad. I live at the edge of a radio hole and was always reachable with the Nokia – even in the house – even if the voice quality was not great. The Iphone has no reception at all, neither in the house nor in the garden. To get a network with the Iphone I have to drive about 1km. Both (Nokia and Iphone) placed side by side on the terrace with SIM from the same network provider: Iphone: no network, Nokia 3 bars reception strength. There I would have expected more from one of the most expensive mobile phones, particularly since the Nokia is already 6 years old. So I will have to continue using the old mobile phone at home and take the Iphone to work in the city.
So after iPhone 3s, 4s, SE and most recently iPhone 7 now the Xs. Not that I was dissatisfied with the iPhone 7. But I liked the larger display with almost the same form factor. Resolution and image display is currently unparalleled. Camera plays in a special league of its own. Operation, typically Apple ingenious. Besides the Apple Watch and the Air Pods, I also use iPad and Macbook. A better connection of the different devices by means of the iCloud is currently not available. Quality of workmanship also top quality. I also enjoy longer runtime, more memory, Face ID and inductive charging. And I am looking forward to the stable, quite considerable proceeds when selling the used device. Owners of an Android device can only dream of this. I for my part can recommend the device without any restrictions. The biggest hurdle is the price, which makes you incredibly pain resistant…
I switched from the Iphone 8 to the Iphone XS and have no regrets. At first I had to think about it because of the size difference, but meanwhile I really got used to it. The workmanship as usual 1A. Looks even better than on the picture. I was really positively surprised when I took the Iphone out of the box. Switched on, old Iphone placed next to it and the data transfer worked by itself. The Iphone reacts 1A and super fast when I click on apps or similar. Face ID also works great. Here too, I had thought about it in the beginning, as I had already gotten used to Touch ID. Face ID is a thousand times more cool and practical. The messages on the screen are only shown in detail when I look at the phone, otherwise the app is there and only ‘message’. The camera is really great. Sound as usual from Apple. I am mega satisfied all around and love the Iphone XS.
The enthusiasm for a new Iphone was much bigger a few years ago. The Iphone XS is just a smartphone like many others. I love Apple products, but unfortunately it’s no longer something special. Only the especially high price, but you know that with Apple. Simple handling, very good processing, great display and camera. But unfortunately the phone has become a bit bigger, thicker, more unwieldy, more sensitive (glass front and back) and heavier than its predecessors (6,7 and 8), which I find very unfortunate and not very innovative. Everyone may see it differently. Even the large, protruding camera lens should be able to be built into a smartphone more elegantly and inconspicuously nowadays. I still recommend the Iphone XS, though, because it seems to fit into today’s world. Expensive doesn’t mean that it is something special.
The device is incredibly fast, easy and pleasant to use and you consistently have the feeling of holding something really high-quality in your hand. Previously had the iPhone SE and various Android phones, this is by far the best in terms of performance, ease of use and usability. Hats off for this, Apple. The only drawback: the color. The ‘gold’ (if you can call it that) looks like it was designed for my great-grandmother–I’m 30. The back is really not pretty, I wonder what the people at Apple thought. The pages, on the other hand, are vivid, though very susceptible to fingerprints. A good friend of mine has the silver version, where the back looks like the color white. I don’t like that either, but it’s better than the pensioner’s colour gold. I think I would choose the grey version.
The best iPhone ever, at least Apple thinks so. But is that true? It lies well in the hand and makes a valuable impression, despite the fact that it has become somewhat heavier than its predecessors (iPhone 7 or 8). The screen looks huge, the notch (the small corner at the top) has advantages and disadvantages, but in the end it doesn’t bring any significant innovations. The system runs faster and seems perfectly adapted. The speakers are good. It meets all modern connection standards and offers the possibility of wireless charging. Technical progress that is not revolutionary, but rather evolutionary. Conclusion: In the end it’s not the hardware that decides the race, whether or not an iPhone, it’s Apple’s universe and the perfection of the system.
I am super happy to have chosen an iPhone and especially this one. Only the comparatively long delivery time was a pity, but does not harm the product and my satisfaction, especially since the delivery time was announced. Operation is super easy and I am completely satisfied so far. Even without the home button you can quickly get to the main menu and with the different wipe directions and screen touches you can also scroll back and forth, access different APPs and so on. I was sceptical about face recognition at first, but it works much faster than the fingerprint function. However, the battery does not last very long. But since I expected this from other reviews, I don’t deduct a star here. I would order it again.
I decided to go for the xs rather than the iPhone 11pro . I’m very pleased to have chosen an iPhone and especially this one.

For a long time I had prejudices against products from Apple. Now I have started the entry into the Apple world and I do not regret it so far. The phone is very mature and powerful. Everything simply works as it should – or at least most of it. Biggest advantage and main argument for me to buy this smartphone is the update policy of Apple. Providing the products with updates for at least 5 years is ecologically very good. Why do I need a new smartphone every 1-2 years, when I can use it safely and with the latest software for 5 years. Thanks Apple! I think the extra price compared to the Android competition is worth it.
I have the IPhone XS since yesterday and before that I had an iPhone 6s Plus. It was a small change due to the new settings of the mobile phone from the 6splus to the xs like for example the home button where you want to press it from time to time but it is not there. The phone itself is simply beautiful so well from the outside as well as the quality it offers I am thrilled from the first second on the phone offers what it promises. A super camera and also the function on the phone itself. For this quality the phone offers I find the price suitable. I can recommend it in any case. :)!
I have used an iPhone 6s so far, and was mega satisfied with it. But now it started to get crazy because of the new software updates. I was thinking for a few weeks if I should wait until the 6s is no longer easy to use or if I should get a new phone now. Because this phone was very much reduced here, I decided to buy it. Actually I am super happy, it is very nice and fast. The display is already very large and I hope I get used to it. Typing is a bit cumbersome as I have small hands but I hope it will get better. I’m still thinking if I should really keep it or not. :/
The IPhone keeps what it promises ! Only this Face ID is annoying because it only reacts frontally! Also the missing homebutton still causes me frustration and trouble after such a long time (2 months)! Now I have switched on the help for it ! To the battery there are hardly differences to my predecessor model 8. is still fast empty! The screen is a dream, but not suitable for small hands or short fingers. I can’t even get close to the upper corner or the opposite side of the keyboard when using it with one hand! But the operation is simple and self-explanatory
The iPhone XS is, as usual from Apple, altogether very high quality manufactured. I could not find any material defects, unusual gaps or similar. When trying to twist the iPhone XS, nothing happens and nothing can be heard. The smartphone simply lies well in the hand and is not too heavy. The material impression and the look is very high quality and looks very noble. The included accessories are also very well made and don’t offer any opportunity for criticism, the performance is as always with Apple the hammer and also the camera and display are super.
In former times I was an Android fan, today nothing goes over Apple. The IPhone XS works incredibly fast. The battery lasts for 2 days despite Facebook, Instagram and and and 2 days! It’s a pity that there are no fingerprints anymore, the face recognition disturbs me a little bit but I guess it’s a matter of habit. I can recommend it with best conscience. The price for the 256GB model is really okay. I can’t understand any of the reviews – my mobile phone has bad reception – that’s probably due to the network provider! I am absolutely happy.
From IPhone 7 Plus directly to IPhone Xs is a big jump for me! It takes getting used to. Without fingerprint ( now with Face-ID ) without menu buttons and a little bit heavier …. But in 30 minutes I got used to it. Easy. IPhone Xs is from Designe (I think) better than IPhone 11. Great optic and of course much faster than a 7 Plus that came in years. Front and back are made of bulletproof glass instead of bumpers or covers. Not to hide the look but to protect it at the same time! I am glad to have bought it. It is worth every cent ….
After my IPhone SE had passed away, I decided to buy the IPhone X. The IPhone XS scared a little bit from the price at first. But as chance would have it, I am the proud owner of an IPhone XS and I wouldn’t want to miss it anymore. Finally, another favorite MP3 album fits into the memory, you don’t have to delete all your photos all the time (which are collected with child, dog and cats) and the battery lasts the day (like you do). Phone reacts nice and fast and the change was not difficult 🙂 I do not want to give it away anymore

I must honestly say that the battery life of an iPhone has never convinced me. This is now completely different with this iPhone XS. Since I neither play games nor watch many videos, I regularly come over 2 days with the battery. The workmanship is of course first class and does not need to be emphasized further. With the color Gild I was not sure at first whether it really fits me. When I held the iPhone in my hands for the first time, I could quickly put this ‘fear’ aside. The color is really great and looks like a ‘skin tone’.
For a while I switched from Apple to Samsung, because Apple became arrogant to me again for many years. In my eyes the prices were simply not justified. They are still not justified today, you pay hundreds of Euros just for the brand name. However, Samsung and other manufacturers lag behind with the prices of the new models. That is why I decided to buy an iPhone again after a few years. And you just have to admit it – once an Apple fan, always an Apple fan. Apple products are simply foolproof and by far the best quality.
I used to have the 6 iPhone. The difference is immense. Especially when it comes to battery power and camera. The camera makes super sharp pictures. And the sound quality for music and calls is worlds better. The disadvantage is the weight. Since it is much heavier than mobile phones of the same size from other manufacturers. And you have to get a cover, because the camera sticks out and would not be protected otherwise. Otherwise the system is much faster and the look is very chic. Personally I am very enthusiastic.
Like so many others, I had my doubts about the handling. Will I be able to get used to the missing home button? I can reassure everyone here, it ran automatically after 1-2 hours! The home button is not missing at all. Otherwise, the kit distance is the best device I ever had! Photos and videos are outstanding! Face ID works even in the evening light and also with sunglasses and cap! I also had to think about the silver aluminum edge, which now shines instead of the brushed look. This looks and feels even better!
The iPhone Xs is just brilliant. The face-id makes it more comfortable to use and in general the usability is very easy and intuitive as you are used to from Apple devices. The setup was very easy to do with another Apple device. The synchronization was completed in no time and the iPhone was fully operational. The camera is really ingenious and takes excellent pictures. Even though the device really has a very proud price, I can only recommend it. It is definitely a companion for the next years.
The iPhone in gold looks more like beige. But this is probably due to the glass back. Otherwise it fits well in the hand with the appropriate case. I wouldn’t use it without the case. The repair costs for the iPhone amount to over 600 Euros. So a good 50% of the price. The LED display has a brilliant image. The only negative point besides the high price is the weak battery. I was surprised that the iPhone was delivered within one week, although I had announced a delivery for March 2019.
I had very strong net and wlan problems. Where I live, the o2 network is not so bulging which is nothing new. But I had at least 2 power bars with the iPhone 7, with which I could still make calls. With the Xs I had no net at all (no net disturbing mobile phone cover). The wlan signal was also quite weak, unlike my iPhone 7. I also called the Apple customer hotline, where they told me that it could be a mobile phone with a hardware failure. Long story short, I sent the phone back.
Now that my iPhone 6S is a bit outdated, I wanted to treat myself to a small update. However, as the iPhone 11 Pro was too expensive for me, I decided to buy this device, which completely meets my needs. It takes very good pictures, the display is razor sharp and the sound is also much more voluminous than with the 6S – which is partly due to the fact that the sound is now also output via the earphones in addition to the actual speaker. All in all a top product at a top price.
This Iphone (mine was the 5s) is already on the same level as comparable devices from Samsung and Huawei (they are even a bit cheaper). It was a gift for someone who means a lot and I knew she was an apple fan. Performance and workmanship are almost unbeatable, especially in the camera sector. 5 stars because there is to grumble. The user is not a gamer, more of a social media freak and the battery lasts well with intensive use. Better than some of the competition on Android.
Years ago I switched to Apple and am still very satisfied. The handling is easy and fast to learn. The color (gold) is the absolute highlight of the phone. However, I must also say that it is not really worth to get the IPhone XS if you own the IPhone X, because the size and appearance of the phone does not change much, only the back of the phone, which is mirrored on the XS model. Otherwise it is a very nice mobile phone and for Apple lovers it is recommendable.
I must say in advance that I had all the Iphone phones, but this phone is amazing. After Iphone 6s, Apple made some crap, then switched to Android. Because I needed a second mobile phone for my job I wanted to give Apple another chance. I can only say woooooow, what is this sick thing. You can’t compare the mobile phone with any other Iphone, the system the colors the functions and so on. It was the right decision to buy this phone. Clear purchase recommendation
The delivery was faster than announced, proper packaging, goods were sealed in original packaging and showed no damage. Easy to use, switch on the phone, restore the fuse and continue where I left off with the old phone. The rethinking of not having to press the homebutten was a matter of a few minutes. Even at night and without glasses (as a spectacle wearer Face ID with glasses) my IPhone recognizes me. It is just fun, this part, would buy it again and again.
Very very nice device, I have now treated myself to it! Everything runs perfectly! It is at the beginning already a conversion since the homebutton does not exist any more ! The delivery was so fast that the device arrived at noon the next day ! One thing I found not correct, the supplier has simply handed it over to a colleague and not to me personally! One should pay attention to that, that the actual receiver also accepts it ! Very important in my eyes !
As a longtime Android/Samsung user I decided to switch to IOS/Apple. I would say, the change was successful. My fears that I would not be able to handle the system have vanished after a few hours of setup. Yes, the mobile phone is expensive but all devices in the premium segment are not available for less than 1000€ and this is reflected in everything, battery life, display, camera, processor etc. So from me there is a clear recommendation to buy.
I switched from the IPhone 7 Plus to the Xs with a certain scepticism. When I held the device in my hand I was amazed how much the Xs is worth compared to the 7plus. Above all, I am enthusiastic about the size and the handling – smaller, but much better! I had not expected this. To be on the safe side I had a look at the Xmax – but no! In my opinion the Xs is the optimum in power, performance and ergonomics. Full purchase recommendation!
Since this is the first time I own an i Phone (I switched from Samsung) I had to get used to the new features. Thanks to the transfer app from Samsung to Apple, setting up the new i phone was easy and convenient. All my data, information and settings would be completely transferred to the i Phone in a very uncomplicated way. So far I am and I think it will remain so enthusiastic about the new i phone from Apple.
Got the iPhone XS in gold with 64GB, it runs absolutely smoothly and the display is great for Netflix and Co, especially in combination with the speakers. The battery is sufficient for my use, but with constant YouTube, Instagram could be tight. The camera is great, no matter if close to it or in low light conditions-superb results-and with Face ID, it’s also quick and handy for me to unlock or unlock content.
The iPhone XS is a further development of the iPhone X. As with the X, the case is hardly bigger than that of the iPhone 8 – but the screen is still as lavishly sized as the iPhone 8 Plus. The unlocking via face recognition (Face ID) works better and safer than the competition. Compared to its predecessor, the XS scores with longer battery life, a very fast processor and a new dual SIM function based on eSIM.
Operating system and hardware are perfectly matched. The camera takes impeccable photos. The only disadvantage is the included 5W power supply, which is simply much too weak with a battery capacity of 2659 mAh. The charging time with the 5W power supply is over 3H. Can only recommend everyone to buy the 12W power supply from Apple, which is also used for the Ipad. The charging time is reduced by 1 hour.
For a long time I thought about whether to switch from the iPhone 8 directly to the 11er or the XS. I do not like the look of the 11er 100%. Besides, only the camera is a bit better. So it became the XS in pink gold. I am thrilled. Top photo quality for all applications and times of day. The battery lasts long and the system runs smoothly. The look and feel are excellent. Once iPhone, always iPhone.
Those who know and love the iPhone will be thrilled here as well. Easy to use and everything works intuitively. The camera takes great pictures. I personally find colour gold very chic. Wanted to take something different. The edge looks more golden than the back. Super color play. Unfortunately I cannot mention much new in the evaluation. Everything was already written down in previous comments.
I had been thinking for a long time whether I should buy this iPhone…after my iPhone 6s was already 4 years old. I can highly recommend the Xs, it is a quantum leap compared to the 6s, brilliant colors, the camera is just great! Face ID works perfectly and the setup was a breeze. An iPhone remains an iPhone, despite the very high price. It was definitely worth it for me!!!
I had an iPhone 6s before and after a long back and forth – especially because of the high price – I bought the iPhone XS. Even though I have owned the Smartphone only since yesterday, I am already satisfied! I especially like the camera with all its features. The shipping was also super fast. After I received my order, my package was delivered directly the next working day.
The iPhone is great, I have nothing to complain about, even without the home button everything works great and you get used to it quickly. The colour is also great and looks really nice. Besides, it was stated that it takes about 3 months until the phone arrives but it actually arrived a few days later, which of course made me very happy and I am very satisfied with it.
It is a TOP smartphone. The display is amazing. Extremely good color display, very fast execution of programs. Very easy compatibility with other Apple devices (for me the main reason for buying it, since I own a Mac and an iPad). But the price is too high. If you have the money and want a product that should last the next 4-5 years, I can definitely recommend it.
I used to have the iPhone 7 and have now switched over. Everything like you are used to from Apple. I chose the largest model because it should be a small companion office. I’m trying it out, but now I can already say that the large display is very good for that. The battery life is considerably longer. Despite intensive use at least 3 days without power outlet.
Design and processing in perfection as always from Apple. You quickly get used to the new menu navigation and the Face ID works without any problems. Even the listening pleasure in connection with the AirPods does not come too briefly. There are deductions for the noticeably high weight, the lack of adapter cables for conventional headphones and the high price.
With the XS at the latest, a separate digital camera has become completely superfluous. Even with little / much light, great pictures are possible. What I like most is the portrait function. I can recommend everyone to book a photo course (or other events) in an Appel Store. The courses are free and very entertaining. Apple knows how customer loyalty works.
A great phone, nice looks and good handling. Delivery time was indicated with end of March and came already after three and a half weeks. Everyone who buys it knows that it is expensive. But what is really bad is the network connection, both Internet and phone network connection is often not there and it finds the network only after you turn off the phone.
After my iPhone 7, I now wanted a smartphone that still fits in my hand. The iPhone 11 was definitely too big. Also, the Xs has a much better display. I am also satisfied with the camera. The portrait shots are very well done. In darker light conditions, shots are still acceptable. The memory capacity of 256GB is also sufficient. A successful phone.
The delivery was faster than expected – ordered on 20.10.18, received on 13.11.18. I have exchanged my iPhone 7 Rosé for an Xs 5.8 in gold 64 GB. Decisive for me was the better camera and the bigger memory. The Xs is a bit bigger and heavier. Therefore I had to convince myself of the advantages first. Conclusion. The purchase is worthwhile.
With the I Phone it is well known that the battery does not last long after long use. But it should not be the case at the beginning. Within 2-3h the battery will go down to less than half after minimal use. This is, I think, not normal. I think that this phone just had a defect and therefore I have to go back. Otherwise a very nice colour!
