That was while using it as my primary device sending and receiving hundreds of emails, messages and push notifications, listening to five hours of music on Bluetooth headphones, watching an hour of Netflix, and shooting about 10 photos a day.Ī full-day’s battery is the bare minimum that’s acceptable in 2018, and competitors can last closer to double that. On heavy days it would be on its knees as I made it to bed. That means if I take it off the charger at 7am on day one, it’ll only just make it to my alarm at 7am the next day without being plugged in, meaning you will definitely need to fully charge it at least once a day. Where the iPhone X lasted 30 hours between charges, the iPhone XS only just scrapes 24 hours. Unfortunately, like the iPhone XS Max, the iPhone XS marks a step backwards in terms of battery life for Apple. Game performance is also excellent, while the improved AI processor speeds up AR experiences and other machine-learning systems. With the six-core A12 Bionic the phone is responsive, smooth and likely has more raw power than most will need, until some magical new app comes along to take advantage of it. The iPhone XS has the same internals as its bigger sibling, the XS Max, and unsurprisingly performs exactly the same. The iPhone XS on the left, the iPhone XS Max on the right, both with black glass backs. Screen: 5.8in Super Retina HD (OLED) (458ppi)Ĭamera: Dual 12MP rear cameras with OIS, 7MP front-facing cameraĬonnectivity: LTE, Wi-Fiac, NFC, Bluetooth 5, Lightning and GPS All of which is to say it’s easy to pocket and handle, with either one or two hands. It’s also thinner than most at 7.7mm thick. Weighing 177g, the iPhone XS is 3g heavier than the phone it replaces, 3g lighter than the Huawei P20 Pro but 14g heavier than the Samsung Galaxy S9. The speakers are now louder, but there’s still no headphone jack nor a lightning to 3.5mm adapter in the box this time round. The 5.8in OLED screen is one of the best ever fitted to a smartphone and makes watching movies and TV shows on the commute a joy. That includes the large screen squeezed into a small body, the luxurious feel and top-notch new design that ditched the home button. Fortunately that’s not a bad thing this generation, as it maintains everything that made last year’s iPhone X so good.
