The Cupertino company couldn't wait any longer, shortly after seeing an incredible presentation of the Apple Watch, we find the two versions of the iPhone Xs, and now Apple has been able to launch a new slightly larger version of its flagship device, we will have a 5,8-inch edition and another 6,5-inch version, in addition to a new gold color that will accompany the already present white -silver and space gray. Stay with us, we will tell you what's new in this iPhone Xs and iPhone X Max with new colors and many improvements.
At the design level we have practically the same thing, except that el iPhone Xs Max It has a much larger screen, a total size similar to that seen so far in the iPhone Plus but fully screen. This makes it precious, flimsy and very useful at the same time. As far as hardware is concerned, both have a Super Retina screen and a pixel density per inch of 458, few more differences. And it is that the two terminals have a new sound system called Wide Stereo Sound, which would improve the current stereo sound offered by the iPhone X, somewhat weak as far as the upper speaker is concerned.
This new version of the iPhone is theoretically capable of running the Faster Face ID and more efficiently, although in theory this capacity could be imported via software to the current iPhone X. The processor is the heart of the device, so the iPhone Xs in both editions evolves to A12 7 nanometer Bionic (eight core), capable of offering a performance never before seen in an iPhone, and most importantly, promising energy savings that will be extremely important in the iPhone Xs Max.
In terms of storage, we will be able to choose a 512GB version, as the Samsung Galaxy Note 9 does, for example. However, from Apple it is clear that the iPhone Xs has the most powerful hardware on the market without any doubt. Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning They also have a place in iOS 12 and the iPhone Xs, that is, now the keyboard and autocomplete functions should work better given the neural capabilities that these new Cupertino terminals will include. Another example is the ability to offer news at the Augmented Reality level thanks to its proven raw power.
Now it's time to talk about the camera, Apple has been able to do it very well with the iPhone X camera, so much so that Time magazine has used a photograph taken with the iPhone for the cover of its magazine. However, the camera suffers quite a bit when in low light conditions. Now we have two 12 MP sensors that offer optical stabilization and 1.4 aperture for the upper one and 1.8 for the lower one. Same for the front cameras, slightly improved, although it remains only 7 MP with aperture of 2.2. Image processing is going to have a lot to say in this regard, and we hope that this will serve, for example, to improve the way the iPhone behaves in low-light images, something where it still has a lot to prove to get to the level for example of the Samsung Galaxy Note 9, a phone that we are testing and offers brutal camera performance in all situations.
Now we also have the function Smart HDRIn theory, you will be able to take a few shots to show the best way to combine the brightness and exposure of the image, and thus make all the photographs shine equally. They also point out that portrait mode has been improved, being able to differentiate even the finest hair from the background of the photograph, even against the light. This we will have to do with daily use to corroborate the words that the Cupertino company has issued during the Keynote held. Finally, it's time to talk about the variable aperture, an exclusive capacity of the iPhone Xs thanks to its new hardware, also present in competing terminals. Regarding the recording, mention that all four microphones on the iPhone Xs are capable of capturing audio in stereo, which will later allow us to offer a totally incredible video reproduction and of very high quality in all aspects, because not everything is the image that is offered, right? Perhaps the iPhone X camera seems the element in which they have placed the most hope in Apple.
One More Thing ...
The surprise comes with the ability to use two SIM cards through the system Dual SIM Dual Standby. Something that has yet to be experienced and that will allow us to use two cards and two different rates. Finally, autonomy, another pending task, the iPhone Xs offers at least (in theory) half an hour more use and screen than the current iPhone X, and the iPhone Xs Max will offer up to 1h 30m longer than the current iPhone X. However, in the West this capacity will be unique through eSIM, only in China they will be able to use two SIM cards at the same time.
So everything the Cupertino company has decided to leave the issue of price to the end, especially for the surprise of the iPhone Xr, a 6,5-inch LCD edition with a front part very similar to that of the iPhone X but with a single camera, finally banishing Touch ID and offering Face ID. These are the prices of the new iPhone.
- iPhone Xs from 999 dollars (1100 euros are expected in Spain)
- iPhone Xs Max from 1099 dollars (1200 euros are expected in Spain)
- iPhone Xr from 749 dollars (809 euros are expected in Spain)
El official launch of the terminals is planned for:
- iPhone Xs next September 14 reservations are opened, official sale on September 21 in Spain.
- iPhone Xs Max September 14 reservations open, official sale on September 21 in Spain.
- iPhone Xr on October 26 fully available.
The iPhone X will be discontinued Along with the iPhone SE, the iPhone 7 will go down to 500 euros and the iPhone 8 will do the same.
Impressive? It's the same as last year's X. They have only changed the processor. Most of what they've said is iOS 12 enhancements. Let's not be fanboys, for God's sake. That I came with an impressive desire to buy it and I am super disappointed. Same camera, even if they say it is new. Same screen. Regrettable. The winner the Xr. Not even three have been cut and above all they are worth the same, which possibly with the new tariffs is even more
