Unless you need to save money and buy the iPhone 8, then you're choice here is largely down to the screen.If you like the modern bezel-free design of the iPhone XR with its notch and Face ID then you're all good. It also has the advantage of a newer proce...

The iPhone XR and 8 Plus are similarly priced, similarly equipped phones. The XR ditches the home button for a notch and Face ID and comes in six eye catching colours. Its screen is larger and taller than the 8 Plus, too.But you might prefer the design an...
The iPhone 7 remains a solid performer, albeit one that looks a little dated now that full-screen models are the norm. It can't keep up with the processor inside the XR, or the new camera tricks, but still has plenty to offer those who aren't too demandin...
Abstract: In the meantime, we pore over the iPhone XR’s colours in detail, for your perusing pleasure.Understated and elegant, like a swan, the iPhone XR white is the perfect handset for those who like keeping it classy. If you’re prone to messy handbags, satchels...

Despite the fairly large price difference, the iPhone XR and XS Max aren't hugely different.Splashing out on the Max will get you a bigger screen which has OLED tech and a higher resolution and a second telephoto camera on the back. Smaller things include...

If you're buying a new iPhone, the iPhone XR is the cheapest way to get Apple's latest tech. But at £749/$749, it's still not exactly cheap by definition. The colours are great though, and it's got a larger screen than the XS for less money.But then, the...
Nice screen, Good range of colors, Camera exceeds expectations
No dual lens, Thicker design
For all the talk about it being cheaper, this is actually the more impressive iPhone from the mix when you consider the cost as well. The quality, camera performance and overall capability of the iPhone XR is high, and while it's a little chunkier that sh...

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 that wanted to embrace the buttonless iPhone form from last year but just couldn't justify the iPhone X's high price tag.Embrace it now they should though. F...
Abstract: So when can the general public get their eager mitts on the iPhone Xr and iPhone XS, then? It’s what every hardcore Apple fan wants to know and, luckily for them, there’s not long left to wait. In fact, if you’re after the new iPhone Xs, you can pre-order...
It's plain to see – the iPhone XR marks a sizeable upgrade to the iPhone 8 in more than a few categories. From its A12 Bionic chip to its larger screen and longer-lasting battery life, the iPhone XR is the better phone. Although, that is to be expected.Bu...
