One question...since no more 3d touch
Check an link...if you long press it, what it shows
1) The "open/open in backgroudn etc"
or
2) the 3d touch preview etc ?

I think its very strange now...with 3d touch, if you wanted to preview a web page you press harder...if you wanted to open in background...you press longer....now...??! very confusing

How’s the temperature? My Xs Max tends to get quite hot. Was hoping this years offering might be cooler. :)

haptic touch shows all the same options that 3D Touch did. It’s just not as slick. It’s all long press. No need to press hard.

Weight feel in hand?

definitely thicker but I use a case anyway.

How’s in call volume? And speaker phone volume? Compared to XS Max?

call quality is good so far and much better than Xs. Speakers are great.

The camera difference that much noticeable than your previous phone? I've watched a few reviews but figured I'd ask you. Ill try to make it out to BB this weekend to get a hands on experience.

So, in this case, how you "open in background" a web site/link ?
Until now, you long press (not 3d Touch) that link

the cameras are a huge improvement with the wife angle and night mode.

Are the improved speakers really clearer, louder, than XS? More spacial separation?

speakers have so much more depth and clarity.

So you long press the link which previews the linked page and then click again to go full page,

If you have a stylus, can you tell whether pressure sensitive drawing is still possible with Procreate?

Posted this in another thread but is your camera preview framier than previous phones? Dont know if its from the icloud restoring in background or the multiple lenses merging thing, but seems like the frame rate is lower than my X
