Yes, I recall this happening one time when I used the haptic feedback icon on the main screen. It has not happened again. I am running iOS 12.1.1.

Perhaps the 8 made you think you got large hands beacuase I would define large hands as being able to use the XR one handed.
So medium to large hands then?
Yes, too big, going back to ip7 and wait until next year.
I liked the all screen and no home button, but the size after a week bothers me so much that I returned it.

Yes! the screen of another phone (that it´s in the picture) looks totally blue.
I tested the same with an iphone 7 and SE and they don´t do that...
Thanks. Yeah, it's strange. Never had that with my previous 7+ or 8+ phones.
Also had a weird display on my little red treadmill LEDs.
I hope it’s a software bug and not a hardware related issue. Also I would like to see how a picture from an XS/XS Max looks like.
I can't get my BT headphones, the Audio Technica ATH-SR 5 BT to pair with my Xr. No problems and very stable with my previous 6s and my iPad (Mini 2). It's like Apple wants me to spend on headphones too
Sorry about your lens. It’s such a lottery when you drop your phone. I have a case on mine and a few days ago my toddler threw my max down the stairs but luckily it didn’t have any damages.
I hope you are able to get it fixed via your credit card.

I’m glad your Max made it through okay! I guess your toddler prefers Android?
OMG, your sweet baby did that?!!! Toddlers!

This is a picture of my iPhone 8+ taken with my XR running iOS 12.1.1 beta. I resized the picture and it doesn't look nearly as good as the original.
I really wouldn’t worry too much about how my phone camera takes pictures of other phone’s displays. There’s always all kinds of weirdness trying to take pictures of another phone’s or computer’s display anyway. I wouldn’t really consider this “a thing” though I do understand it’s annoying and I do appreciate folks taking note of it since that is what was asked for.
I’ve done a lot of testing and overall colors of scenes are excellent and very accurately match what I see in real life.

I guess I’m just unlucky. I have had 3 different iPhone XRs with part of the display yellow. First one was top right and bottom left corners, second was about 1/4” in from the right bezel all the way top to bottom and now the new one is like that but on the left. True Tone ok makes it worse (And I like using True Tone).
The only issues I have is that text is too small in Safari and there's no way to change that except zoomed view, which makes everything else too big. And that the camera lacks contrast and doesn't handle highlights well at all in low light situations.
My 3 year old Nexus 5X takes more detailed photos with less noise in low light, and it handles the highlights much better. The caveat is that HDR+ has to be used on the Nexus, and I have to wait for a couple of seconds between photos while it's processing or I risk running out of RAM and get corrupted photos.
I hoped that Apple would be on a near Google pixel level for low light this year but it's not even close. In good light it's amazing though except for lack of contrast.

I can't reproduce this at all. Were you using Smart HDR when you took that? I'm not sure HDR is suitable for photos of screens. I wonder if there's improvement with HDR disabled...
Strange. The AirPod should be instant, and I mean like instantaneous once you open the lid, it _should_ be immediate when the Airpod display icon appears on your screen that they are connected. I would try unpairing with the AirPods, then re-pair and see if this makes a difference.
I've tried that. It doesn't bother me as much as the dropped calls. That's something I have do idea what to do about. I installed the 12.1.1 beta today, but still has dropped a couple times today.
Agreed, they always pair immediately for me and this worked on all the iPhones I've used. I paint myself lucky or blessed as I've not had a single dropped call and on Friday I did a full 2 hour phone conference using my phone. I am on AT&T not that it makes much difference I suppose. I hope you get it figured out!
