Apple's new iPhone XS is a modest step up from last year's iPhone X, but remains a major technological leap forward for anyone who hasn't yet made the jump to the edge-to-edge design with Face ID.

There are many great smartphones on the market and the iPhone XS is certainly one of them. Apple does a lot of things differently from Samsung, Huawei and co., but 'different' doesn't necessarily mean better.

Handy size; Perfect craftsmanship; Great display; Very good camera

Average battery; Performs slower than expected; Illogical UI

Announced in September 2018, the iPhone XS (and iPhone XS Max) made its debut roughly a year after the iPhone X. It represents a fairly modest update from its predecessor, but in terms of the camera there has been some interesting improvements.

When Tim Cook revealed the iPhone X in 2017 , the Apple CEO announced that this was the new direction for iPhone, the foundation of the next 10 years. Fulfilling that promise, Apple's new iPhones build on what the iPhone X started.

Faster processor; New camera features; Tougher glass build

Design hasn't changed; Not a necessary upgrade for iPhone X users; No fast charger in the box

I bought this after having another very popular android, my first since ‘leaving' Apple. I found that most apps were designed to run smoother on iOS and just overall prefer Apple.

Best iPhone yet no button to mess with reads your face every time all menus are done with gestures or flick of screen messages you can make your own avatar or use theirs and moves as your face moves and says what you say to send in message just over all quality better than any iPhone yet

The iPhone XS is beautiful to look at, with it's smooth curved corners. I purchased the 256gb version as I have loads of photos. The phone fits nice in the hand and is incredibly easy to use even if it's your first iPhone.
