Apple iPhone XR like 2014 Apple iPhone 5c but where the 5c had smaller screen and smaller memories and CPU .but the IPhone XR has bigger screen bigger memory and cpu.
So I believe they have discountion 5c to bring out iPhone xr 2years later wonder why sales dropped on iPhone XR

It's an upgrade for those who already have the x, so the xr and the xs are both upgrades for different iPhone models users

I really cant understand the reasoning behind recommending this over Xs, it makes no sense.
I cant afford the Xr, its not worth it, its like a VW Golf, just because it is available with the same engine as Audi A4 Quattro it isnt an alternative to the A4.
Xs is great, Xs Max is too, well worth the price. For my pretty friend who wanted a phone for christmas i bought a slightly used iPhone X 256GB, paid less than what it cost for a new Xr 64GB. No doubt, if you cant afford Xs you get a used X, much more phone for the money. Xr is never an option before you can get a cheap used one.

Hi GSMArena, wondering why no more audio quality test?? I was hoping to know iphone XR’s audio quality. Is the audio quality as good as iphone 4s or iphone 5s?

Fast CPU doesn't mean it should be fast in real life (iPhone X's&XR has been beaten by 1+6t in real life tests/ check YouTube)
Optiomised os : 1)you can't play YouTube videos full screen---you call it optimization?
2) Can you change your mobile theme/ at least can you change your icon design?
3) no expandable memory/ no support of transferring data from the mobile/ still you need iTunes for that....( You can do it just swap the memory card.)

alski10, 08 Nov 2018I think we will agree that video playback and internet brow... moreIs most of the people using for web browsing, and watching. Videos.... Then they should buy only bigger batteries mobiles... There is ton of Android mobiles available with 5000mah.... With more then 100hours battery life by GSM arena..... All the iPhone users are stuck in the os... If they come out and see what they can do really with their mobiles.....I am not a fan of any mobile....I am using galaxy s7 active for all my work... And iPhone 7. Just for calls only... It can't usable for office kind of works...I can't open some very office file, can't print from the mobile...

Web browsing, camera and social app? This phone is for Grandma lol
Just thinking, if next year iPhone have 4000mAh. How long most iPhone user need to charge it to full? 4 to 5 hours lol

Kandang, 08 Nov 2018"13h of web browsing and 15h of video playback" For that pu... moreI think we will agree that video playback and internet browsing is closer to what people mostly do on their phone, which is: using web based apps. Although gaming battery life is really decent on this year's iphones.
Yes, 95% is a random number but it's just me saying Im pretty sure very few people spend 5-10h talking on their phone each day.
So, my point is, if you see a phone with 30h+ 3G talk time, it most likely will have a good GSMA battery score and yet, very few people care about 3G talk time. Conversely for a phone with only 15h 3G talk time -> bad GSMA battery score.
Doesnt make much sense to me to rely on this arbitrary number.
As for the power, of course it's not necessary most of the time. It's just there for when you need it (ie: gaming, taking pictures and video) and for keeping the phone smooth at all time for the years to come.

A fuel efficient car doesn't need such a big fuel tank as a less efficient car.

13h of web browsing and 15h of video playback. That's matters to 95% of people. Those who don't spend 10h talking on their phone every day.
How well does the Note 9 do with its 4000mah battery and its amoled display ? 12h36 and 16h45 respectively.
The Xr does have good battery life. Every reviewer says it.
