The XR is nicer than it sounds on paper, and the display has the best color/contrast of any LCD I’ve seen from Apple. Unfortunately I’ve become so accustomed to 3D Touch that it’s more difficult to give up than I assumed, and while the display otherwise looks great and surprisingly sharp the difference in resolution is especially noticeable in text compared to the 8 Plus.
I would gladly upgrade to the XS Max if I could but I’m in the minority of customers who purchased a XR because they absolutely are unable to use the OLED models due to Apple’s implementation of PWM. I really would love to keep it since I haven’t ever skipped an upgrade but in some ways it feels like a downgrade from the 8+. But for the average consumer that it’s designed for that doesn’t necessarily care about PPI or 3D Touch it’s close to perfect.
