This is perfect

published

I am thoroughly satisfied with my iPhone XR. I previously owned an iPhone 6+ and this phone is more than a step up. The speed of the OS is really good and the photos are magnificent. Highly recommend the phone. It is very user friendly and for an old bloke like me, it is just what is needed. The face recognition and the ability to pay for goods purchased is another luxury I enjoy. No need to carry a Credit Card around anymore.

Sleek, good quality but I confess I am missing the home button

published

The XR has a large screen (smaller than my previous phone, being a Xiaomi Mi Max). The camera quality is superb, especially the portrait mode and the selfie camera. The battery has so far been brilliant, still on 70% charge with a full day's use, including music streaming and 2 long phone calls. I am impressed with the speed of the device and the reliability of the connection. I am struggling with the gestures because I have chunky fingers that don't co-operate, so I admit I do miss the home button that the previous models had. However, this is a good phone if you want something that works like a defacto computer!

Great phone!

published

This is a device that is primarily for communicating. The fact that it now has a camera and you can complete everything on it a computer can do (better still with an application) is simply amazing. We as humans are quite spoilt. The only downside to this product is the price tag.

Not worth it!

published

Great battery life, works well with ear pods. Feels very lighter than other models. Home button is missing! So to shut the phone down now involve several button presses in sequence.
Display is poor, recently it has got a discolouration on corner of the display.

Great Improvement

published

Camera is actually average. You can get better quality with cheaper brand phones. People don’t really buy the iPhone for the camera though. It’s the brand you are paying for as well as ease of mind and continuous support! Display is pretty good. Little to no issues with freezing. Apps run smoothly. Best thing I LOVE IS THAT the battery life is GREAT. Lasts forever! Highly recommend this phone especially if you can get a great promo from one of the providers!

Excellent phone.

published

XR has been fantastic.
Battery life is great, function and processor speed is brilliant and fast.
Phone and screen size is also perfect to hold and fit in pocket, value compared to XS MAX is definitely worth it.
Very happy

So easy to get used to the new features

published

I thought I wouldn't be able to get used to not having the apple button however it took me a day to love it - even so now I use my Ipad I keep looking at it expecting have the face recognition and it to just open haha.

Battery life is amazing which is the main reason I purchased it.

Great phone, have had this phone for a good 6 months now and haven't had any issues. The battery life is amazing, the phone camera is much better than the older iphones, however i find the Samsung have an overall better camera. Im very happy with the durability, i have dropped it a few times and now cracked screen yet!

Amazing phone!

published

I’ve been an iPhone for many years now. There were times when I thought I would never use another iPhone again. Boy am I glad i waited for the XR! The battery life is amazing - I can go up to 4 days without a single charge and I play games on it and use the phone for a lot of pictures. I’m a mum and an artist, so always taking pics of my kids or artwork! Picture quality is just fantastic and picks up on the smallest of details!

What’s the fuss

published

Mine has a faulty speaker. So I fade in and out and I like that it’s big and the camera takes decent pics not much to say about the phone

iPhone XR the best phone yet

published

I have been using this phone for a few months now and am 100% happy with its performance. It has replaced my Iphone 6S so I had to adjust to its size which took a day. It’s exceptional clarity makes it ideal for reading smaller text and for photography as well as clear calls. I use Telstra which provides good coverage makes it a most useful device for the internet. I love how IPhones also marry with all my other Mac devices making it ergonomic and practical. The photos are very good quality.

Great phone with good battery life

published

I updated to this phone after 8 years of using Samsung. So far so good. Once you get used to swiping (there is no home button) I don’t think I would ever go back. Battery lasts much longer than a Samsung and the photo quality is way better as well. Everything runs really well and I can’t really fault anything in particular with it, except for Siri occasionally talking to me out of the blue, weird!!!

Perfect for what I need

The camera works really well. One of the reasons for picking this type of iPhone. The camera adjusts accordingly.
The durability and brightness of the display are good. This is easily adjustable.
Photographs, social media, making appointments
Yes. I have my phone on auto update and love when the little icons chang.

Couldn't be happier

published

The portrait mode is amazing. I usually don't like photos of myself, because who does unless you are a 21 year old... But the quality of the portrait mode especially is fantastic. Don't get me wrong, the other camera functions are great as is the quality.
The screen is so clear and the movements on apps are great and smooth
Battery - WOW I charge my phone EVERY SECOND DAY!!! Who does that anymore???
