Phone Xr vs Xs/Xs Max - Which Should You Buy? #Helpful Post

hey what's up guys big day for Apple

today where they announced the new

iPhone 10s and max the iPhone @nr and

and of course the iPhone 10s

amongst other things but in this video

the point is I actually want to make it

very simple for you guys to decide which

device to buy there's so many and

there's a lot of information out there

so I want to narrow it down to what's

different and what actually matters when

considering you know between all these

devices so the iPhone 10 R is a cheaper

version but it might not necessarily be

worth going down saving $250 but

sacrificing a lot of features so that's

why I want to bring it to light talk

about all those differences even some

that Apple didn't even mention at their

event and yeah so if you're trying to

decide between the 10 are 10s or 10s max

hopefully with this video it could help

you decide between all of these the

first point I want to make is sighs

something not a lot of people consider

before getting a new phone the iPhone

10's max is absolutely huge it's a

massive display you're gonna get a lot

more content visible there but it is

massive it's basically a plus series

phone but all display and that's not

necessarily a bad thing just do consider

that it won't be as comfortable as say

the iPhone 10s or the iPhone 10 R

edition so the reach here you don't have

to reach as far in order to get into the

control center into that area I would

say it's definitely something to

consider before going for one of these

the six point one does sit pretty well

in between them but still it is quite

wide and you do have to stretch it bits

just to get into the corners there but

otherwise it's not an uncomfortable

device a lot of early reviewers are

saying it's quite light for what it is

and something I wanted to mention about

design the iPhone 10's any 10s max both

have asymmetrical speaker girls on the

bottom I don't know if it's something

that's gonna bother you it does for me

of course I'm still getting I don't

really care that much about it but the

iPhone 10 R is symmetrical so their

ports will be completely the same on

both sides the 10s won't be so very

interesting design change we don't know

why they did that but there is an

antenna band into place there so it

could be something to do with the modem

setup or something like that okay so

let's start with displays the thing that

we're gonna be interacting with the most

on these devices so obviously with the

10s and the 10s max you do have a couple

different choices smaller or larger and

with the iPhone 10 R goes smack-dab in

the middle at 6.1

sizes sighs you know that's your

preference but the technology behind the

display is massively different here

we've got as Apple calls it a liquid

retina this is a super retina now Apple

has made some improvements to that so

the contrast ratio is better the dynamic

ranges improves the display is really

really great it supports HDR this one

does not and pixel densities a lot

sharper so it's got a 458 pixel density

this one has a 326 which is a 720p

display stretched across 6.1 inches it's

not gonna be anywhere near as sharp as

the 10s models so that for me is a big

no I would rather pay the extra $250 and

get a much better display this is the

number one thing you're gonna be

interacting with on a daily just do

remember that but for some people it

really doesn't matter it's all about

your priorities so one thing that sucks

though about the iPhone 10 are is the

amount of bezels on the side and this

clone right here is actual

representation of that amount of bezel

it's a lot so they're chunkier than the

10s or 10s max models just it's not

gonna look as sleek I guess and usually

OLED does have better viewing angles

possibly less reflections brightness

wise they're the same but it's still

going to be the best LCD ever made it's

just not as good as an organic LED

display I don't get this Apple has

completely removed 3d touch from the

iPhone 10 R so no longer you can get

that pressure-sensitive display they've

replaced it with something called the

haptic touch where if you hold something

it responds with the haptic movements

using the taptic engine it's gonna feel

similar but it won't be the same

functionality so if you guys use 3d

touch on a daily if you love it you

won't be getting it on a 10 R at least

not in the same capacity they're

materials so the iPhone 10 R has an

aluminum border aluminum 7000-series to

be exact

it's very durable but not as durable as

stainless steel I mean this is a solid

solid metal it's gonna deform less

during drops in my experience it's a lot

harder to actually gouge and stuff like

that but it's not that big of a

difference they still feel very premium

glass and metal everywhere basically

durability wise I believe these both

have the world's strongest glass as

Apple said and this one knows not as

resistant in the water as an ip67 rating

whereas this one has an IP 68 rating

that's two meters underwater for 30

minutes this can only be one me

so this is gonna be a lot more resistant

in pools if you're gonna be around water

salt water Apple said they tested it in

salt water

they almost encouraged you to be able to

take it into the pool and I use it in

there with no worries they said they

tested it in wine and beer and

everything so if you're worried about

that if you possibly want to use your

iPhone under water 10s models are gonna

be the one you want to go for in colors

so the 10s and 10's max you have three

selections gold silver and Space Gray on

this one you have way more colors to

choose from you got the white the blue

the black yellow coral and a real

product red version which actually looks

really really nice so if you wanted that

stylish look have the option to choose

between colors the 10r is the only one

that really provides you with that but

the gold Apple says is probably their

best looking color yet moving on to the

cameras so the cool thing about the

iPhone 10 R is that it actually has the

same camera as the iPhone 10 S models

the wide-angle lens but not the other

one so it's a single version of the dual

lens camera that means you get very

similar functionality but not quite the

same you're missing optical zoom the two

times zoom digital zoom only goes up to

five times instead of 10 times on the

10s you get two less portrait lighting

effects versus the iPhone 10s it has a

little bit more functionality their cool

thing is though it's the same apertures

same exact camera lens just without the

second one below it so you're really not

going to be missing out on much but for

low light for zooming in on stuff for

video in general this one will be a

little bit better still and the portrait

lighting uses a real depth instead of

calculating it using digital algorithms

as Apple said so the overall the camera

will be better on the iPhone 10s but not

greatly over the iPhone 210 are and I'll

have to test it of course in this

channel and something Apple didn't

mention is that the iPhone 10 R has a

lower class modem versus the 10s the 10s

will be capable of Gigabit LTE downloads

this one stays at 600 so it doesn't have

the newest modem technology okay so as

for physical differences that's just

about it between these models at 10 our

antennas between the 10s and 10's max I

just wanted to point out it mostly comes

down to size preference do you want a

smaller device or larger one the

difference between them is very very

minimal it's just a little bit more

battery life you get an extra hour of

battery life usage and a larger display

if you want to pay an extra $100 for

that to be my

guess if you want the larger size but

other than that like in previous years

between the plus and the non plus models

there used to be a lot of differences

camera mainly a screen now that is no

longer the difference it's just a larger

display any one hour longer battery life

so about the price honestly when Apple

announced the pricing I was like wow

that's a bit steep for the 10s it

remains at $1,000 in the 10s max at a

thousand one hundred or thousand ninety

nine and the iPhone 10 R starts at 749 I

think that's 50 to $100 over price of

what it should be for what it offers but

at the same time this thing shares so

many similarities with the 10s it shares

the same processor the same internals

mostly as most of the camera and

functionality in general has face ID the

overall displays very very similar

looking although it is an LCD but Apple

really loaded this thing up with most of

what made the iPhone 10 great and

improved upon it so you're not really

getting shortchanged but at $750

honestly I would have expected just a

little bit more I would have wanted this

thing to start at $700 that seems a

little more fair in the iPhone 10s max

maxes out at one thousand four hundred

and forty nine dollars with how Apple

Care and Apple care is actually rumored

to get even more expensive because now

it could cover theft or something like

that so this thing could potentially

skirt with $2,000 prices fully loaded

with tax and all that

that's ridiculous for a smart phone the

studies show that people are okay with

spending $1000 for smart phones so Apple

is really pushing that envelope so the

bottom line is that between the 10s and

10's max again there's very little

difference aside from $100 and a screen

size between the 10 R and 10s there is a

good amount of difference but for $250

it just seems like it's a logical choice

to upgrade to the 10s that $250 gets you

a better display better cameras it gives

you 3d touch the display has thinner

bezels going around it looks a little

bit sleeker you have that beautiful gold

color option whereas you know you can't

get those colors if you do go to the

tennis from the 10 arm and if you wanted

a 512 gigabyte storage option which I

don't know how many of you guys would

because it carries a 450 dollar premium

over standard but you can get that on

the tennis models not here this one only

has three storage capacities up to 256

gigabytes so if you are leaning towards

the iPhone 10 are the main

advantages it has is that size just it's

right in the middle between the tennis

Max and the 10s so it's a great happy

medium you're definitely getting more

display than you would on a plus series

and you do have all of those color

options also a weird thing but I do like

that the bottom is symmetrical it's just

a very complete all-around great

evolution from the iPhone 8 design so

it's gonna be a winner it doesn't have

the best specs everywhere but I love

that Apple gave it most of all of the

good things that the iPhone tennis has

such as the processor one of its cameras

at least I'm sure has very great

speakers on its own they didn't really

elaborate if it has the new ones from

the 10s or not and a who doesn't like

saving two hundred and fifty dollars for

$250 you can do a lot with that money

but for me that 250 is better spent

placing it into a 10s max with all those

great features so that's my opinion I

personally would not get this thing but

if $250 makes that big of a difference

for you and this checks all the boxes of

what you wanted from an iPhone certainly

go for it it's honestly very capable

it's a very good size you get more

screen and it costs less than the iPhone

8 plus did when it was released so not

bad at all honestly between these guys

I'm definitely going for the 10s max but

whatever meets your needs is what you

should go for it but hopefully this

video helped make it a little bit more

clear they are more similar than they

are different but there are those key

little things that really make the

difference between these mostly the

display and the cameras all right guys

there it is thanks for watching

hopefully I made your decision just a

little bit easier peace
