Fantastic battery life, Attractive array of colors, Lower price tag
Good but not great display, Portrait camera mode doesn't impress, Expensive for a non-flagship product
The iPhone XR is Apple's least expensive phone launched this year but it's not cheap by any means. While it lacks the premium design and screen of the iPhone XS, it still packs a punch and is a great upgrade option for anyone using an iPhone that's a coup...
If you already have an iPhone X, then there is no benefit in moving to the XR. Aside from the upgraded processor and pretty colours, the earlier model has a superior display, better cameras, and more premium build.Those moving from an iPhone 7, 8, or SE w...
Cool design, Great colour choices, Strong value, Speedy performance, Best iPhone battery life, Great operating system
Not the best iPhone camera, Lower display resolution, No HDR playback
This is the iPhone which, for most people, is everything they'll need. The camera is the biggest casualty of the specifications cutbacks, and the lower-resolution LCD, non-HDR display instead of OLED. These are significant, but in most everyday uses, they...
Great battery life for an iPhone, Attractive array of colors, Lower price tag
Portrait camera mode doesn't impress, Some apps still not fully optimized, Lower-res screen
Of the three iPhones launched in 2018, the iPhone XR is the most impressive of the lot. Not because of the strength of the spec – the iPhone XS is slightly ahead in a lot of areas – but what you're 'saving' by going for this model far outweighs what you'r...

Abstract: The first wave of verdicts from select reviewers given early access to Apple's latest iPhone XR are here, and if their thoughts are any indication of what to expect, cheaper means better.The £999 iPhone XS and £1,099 XS Max were and brilliant in many ways...
Unless you're willing to shop overseas, this might be something of a moot point. The Mate 20 is a good phone with some interesting features, but it fails to excite in the same way that its premium brother the Mate 20 Pro does.Apple has brought iPhone X st...
The iPhone XR might be the 'cheapest' new iPhone for this year, but it's still a relatively expensive device. Its edge-to-edge display is a welcome addition, but the LCD panel is a step down from the OLED ones in the XS, XS Max, and Pixel 3.If you want a...

LCD display compared to OLED, Single rather than dual camera, Slightly reduced camera features, No 3D Touch, No mobile HDR
The Apple iPhone XR is a lovely device, especially for its price point. It's the iPhone for those who want to embrace the buttonless iPhone form from last year but just can't justify the iPhone X's high price tag.Embrace it now they should though. From wh...
There are many predicting that the iPhone XR will be the go-to option for many people considering an upgrade this year. We can see why: the design is bang up to date, it features a spacious screen, has the latest processor onboard, and comes in a fair bit...
