Battery life still lags
Expensive
Its battery life is the shortest of the three new iPhones and only incrementally better than last year's. Despite its still-rich price tag
Key extras such as increased storage
USB-C fast chargers and headphone dongles will have you spending even more
Whether you are a die-hard Apple user or someone who's on the fence, it is fair to say that the iPhone XS and XS Max do deliver a solid user experience that one expects from a high-end smartphone. There are undeniably many cool features, and the industria...

Incredible OLED display, now with a bigger size option, Apple A12 Bionic processor is super-powerful, Excellent cameras, Battery life is great, Huge growth potential for on-device AI processing
Fiendishly expensive, Still no headphone jack, and now no in-box adapter, Smart HDR camera tech can be heavy-handed, Portrait mode still not perfect
Despite just preaching restraint, I can't really criticize you for wanting to just pick up the iPhone XS or iPhone XS Max today rather than waiting. Apple's new flagships look and feel great; their cameras are reliably excellent; and they have the perform...
Fancy design, Outstanding OLED displays, Unwavering system performance, Superb cameras, Incredible media & productivity apps, Futureproof
Very expensive, Display notch and camera bump
The iPhone XS and XS Max are your best choice if you're looking for a no-compromise smartphone experience (and money's not an issue). They are not perfect, but their few imperfections are vastly outnumbered by the many, many things they get just right.Har...

When directly compared to the iPhone X, the iPhone XS is a modest upgrade with welcome and significant improvements to the camera, helped by a new camera system and advanced processing unlocked by the A12 chip. It's definitely an improvement, but probabl...

Abstract: Apple's iPhones have steadily become more predictable, and this year's iPhone XS and iPhone XS Max are as iterative as flagship phones get: a modest “S” update to last year's iPhone X, plus a bigger but otherwise identical version that drops the name “Plu...

Abstract: If you ever watched schlocky '70s sci-fi show The Six Million Dollar Man, you probably remember the opening sequence, during which a faceless narrator describes building a man who is “better than he was before. Better… stronger… faster.”With the iPhon...

The iPhone 7 camera is still great. Here I actually prefer the iPhone 7 photo (left).Photo: Cult of MacThere's a lot more to this camera than I've covered here, but we're already at almost 1,500 words. If you own an iPhone X, the new camera makes the XS w...

bright and color-true OLED display, broad mobile network frequency coverage, impressive main camera, excellent craftsmanship, eSIM support (per update), dust and liquid-resistant
non-expandable memory, no headphone jack, restricted NFC, only 12 months warranty, mediocre telephoto lens

First-rate build quality, Excellent performance, Helpful camera improvements, iOS 12 is fantastic, Slightly more durable than the iPhone X
Still very expensive, Minute design changes mean old cases might not fit well, Incremental battery gains
To say that these are Apple's best iPhones ever isn't really saying much -- that's true of just about every iPhone release. That said, the iPhone XS and XS Max subtly improve on the important work Apple started last year with the iPhone X in just about ev...
