Apple iPhone XR review

23 October 2018
Now updated with full test findings. The iPhone XR is the third iPhone to be launched this year, after the iPhone XS and the iPhone XS Max. While the two iPhone XS models are nearly identical save for the size, the iPhone XR is a significant departure for the iPhone X series and possibly a new chapter going forward.

it was perfect, but the storage after awhile just gets fuller and fuller which means after 4 years of gaming, phone overheats over 20 minutes, after 30 minutes it gets burning hot, same with tiktok for a hour sometimes, and it lags extremely hard sometimes, but still it runs smoothly, with 60 fps it is capable of playing games, still now, it works okay, there’s just lag drops, it is a really great phone for gaming.

      I bought the iPhone Xr when it was launched. Still using it every day… 5 years running. Battery is finally going down now and that is the only reason I will change it for the iPhone 15 as soon as it hits the shops.

        I’ve had my iPhone XR for well over 3 years. The battery is still good. I’ve had other iPhone’s in the past (4S & 6), and this is by far the best. The battery on the 4S went out after about 2 years and the screen was heavily damaged and battery went kaput on the 6 with normal use. Kudos to Apple for making such a great phone in the XR.

                            Anonymous, 22 May 2021Yoo Poco F3 or IPhone XR??????Poco F3 has an undoubtedly better display, 120Hz Oled and notchless. Main camera is similar, but F3 has an ultrawide which XR lacks. F3 also has faster charging. Battery life is also slightly better on F3. But software is a whole different story, ranging from cleanliness, software support, stability, XR has better software.

                              Anonymous, 03 Oct 2021No it isn’t I can confirm having owned an iPhone xr and switching to the P30 the huawei P30 is faster at loading Web pages and playing pubg. The xr is better at social media apps like Instagram an tiktok. The p30 has a better camera pictures look more vibrant it has f1.7 so it let's in way more light than the xr f1.8 camera. Also the P30 has 3 cameras 48mpl main camera 16mpl wide and 8mpl telephoto with 3x optical zoom. Whereas the xr has only 1 lens with no telephoto or optical zoom. The P30 battery lasts soo damn long to its unbelievable and charges from 0 to 60% in 29 mins. The iPhone xr takes 2h20mins to fully charge it has no quick charging. The P30 takes 50 mins max to fully charge. The P30 has slimmer bezels and is way lighter the xr has thick side bezels because apple didn't want people to buy it over the Xs so they had to cripple the design of the phone and the camera system.
