Great Phone

published

I bought this phone outright without a contract so was a big investment for me and was a little wary spending all that cash however I am so happy I did.
The phones functions are fast, new and fresh compared to previous apple updates.
The camera rivals any photography camera especially the portrait mode as it blurs out the background and keeps the main focus on the person/object.
I love that you can also use the whole phone as there is no home button.
I would for sure recommend this phone.

Everything you expect from apple

published

It’s the same as every other iPhone but It’s too big and slightly heavy. Annoying to X out of screens as your hand isn’t big enough meaning you have to use both hands. I considered swapping brands but... I’m loyal to apple

Too big and heavy,

published

Just not a great upgrade from a 6s it’s feels like a side step at best.

Much the same just another iPhone yet its a lot heavier and awkward big, i was not interested in a + size phone yet this basically is that.

I Don’t think I’d buy another iPhone

Best iPhone yet BUT can be improved

published

Fast, screen clear, big screen BUT when using apps such as snap chat and instagram a portion is cut off due to the front top speaker blocking the image. It’s also slightly muffled when talking in the phone...

These are the only negatives the rest is all possitive

Not good for Pokémon players

published

Constant freezing in Pokémon app is apparent in both the XR and XS.... is not fixable by reset or re-install.... the GPS constantly looses connectivity... sometimes 6 to 10 times in playing sessions

Great phone

I recently purchased this phone and have been really happy with it. Great battery life, and the facial recognition feature works really well even when wearing sunglasses or in semi-darkness. I found it to be a vast improvement on my previous (older model) iPhone. I’m not entirely sure that I like the camera, as some photos that aren’t in ideal lighting tend to look almost blurry or pixelated, but that is really the only issue I’ve had with it so far.

Amazing

I have had my iPhone XR for just over a month now and I couldn't be happier! It works perfectly, has a great battery life and is just overall a really great phone. I would definitely suggest upgrading

Thumbs up!

published

Upgraded from the iphone 7 plus and am so happy with this phone. The color options. The size. The screen. The camera. The battery life. It’s so easy to get used to not having a home button too! Can’t even tell what the difference is between the xs/xr honestly. Happy with this purchase!

Great phone

published

Recently got the iPhone XR. Waited over a month to post this review to make sure how well it works. I am super impressed. Great screen display great battery life and excellent speed shifting between screens and apps. I have to admit my last 3 phones have been iPhones but the XR is the best. My partner uses a pixel3 and the iPhone is much better expect for the camera. For all those the complain about pricing the XR is excellent value for money. And considering I used to have a phone, camera, iPod and gps (seperate) products. All now in one device I think it’s good value

Good

I love the phone and have gotten used to the no home button option. The camera quality is really really good. Sometimes the screeen will freeze up then being to work again . But that would be it all . But I am really quite happy with upgrading again to the apple phone

Really nice phone

published

I bought this phone a little while after it came out and i'm not disappointed, the camera is great, love the colours they have to offer, face id is pretty fast and overall it's a nice semi budget compared to xs phone. The only problem is the resolution, it's not available to play 1080p compared to other phones like samsung or other iphones. Overall apps such as gameing is very good, dropped it a couple times and no sign of damage. It's great

Fantastic phone!

published

This is the best iPhone I’ve ever had! I love it. The screen is just the right size with fantastic clear quality viewing. It’s super fast and the Face ID is great, no need to remember passwords. Qi charging is so convenient, no more messing around with cables. There really isn’t anything I would change.

Apple i phone cry in red

published

I must say this phone was a great choice... upgraded from the iPhone 7... it is much faster, the battery lasts a lot longer and the camera delivers great pictures. I was really easy to get used to not having a home button. So far I don’t have anything negative to comment.

Fantastic device!

published

Fantastic device! Does everything I need, is super fast and the wireless charging is awesome! I love the colour options; I choose black because I prefer neutral colours, but the other colours looked great too. The blue was a great colour, I really liked it on display. Overall great phone. Thanks Apple!

XR Brilliant

published

With 128GB, this one fits my criteria, lucky me
After using my iPhone 7plus for 2yrs the XR does more only faster and brighter!
Camera quality is excellent, like most people I use my phone for everything (I've had a mobile phone since the 80's) This one is by far the BEST
Slim, light, with 50% more battery life, faster charge
No home button? Doesn't matter, with a quick flick from the base up I'm ready to go. I love it.
All my apps are working perfectly

Very Happy
