Not sure how I got to the canadian site, just went to Apple.COM and followed the links.
If you either are in Canada, or the website thinks you are in Canada (such as using a VPN located in Canada) going to Apple.com will automatically direct you to the Canadian site. If neither of those are true their website might be buggy at the moment...Not sure how I got to the canadian site, just went to Apple.COM and followed the links.
Nope in Connecticut. Not going through a VPN or anything. I am guessing just a website glitch.
It says that the dual sim will be a nano-sim and eSIM. eSIM available later this year (no date provided) and some carriers may disable this.
It may work well, but right now it feels a little limited for me. I just want to combine my personal and business phones together by using my 2 provided nano-sim cards. Still don't know if I will be able to convert one of those plans to a eSIM plan. to be confirmed later this year, so purchase, for me, will be delayed until later this year.
I'm definitely getting the XR in 128GB. It's a great upgrade from my 7. I actually really like Apple's LCD screens, the screen on my 7 is flawless and the XR will be the same, maybe better, with same PPI. I also like that Apple used the same internals as the XS so I'm not sacrificing hardware, with faster FaceID. Improved single lens cam and the battery life being better than the 8Plus are a bonus. Also, the 128GB option is the sweet spot for my use. As far as the lack of 3D Touch I can honestly count on one hand the number of times I've used it in the last year, so in all likelihood I won't miss it.
That would definitely be ideal, but it looks like the only phones that will have 2 physical sims are the ones sold in China.
It's not BS. I've compared carefully in different lighting and there is no visible difference. The difference between speeds from spinning drives vs SSDs is dramatic and apparent to the most casual observer. The same isn't true between Retina displays.
If the Xr release date was the same as the Xs, I'd be seriously tempted.
But I'm too impatient so will be going with the Xs.
Love the colours though.

i am feeling this too... but $150 price difference is a lot to me. I really don't use dual camera that much (except for portrait mode and now that will be on Xr) and not sure I care about OLED so Xr seems worth the wait to me.
I think we'll get these if we upgrade from our 7 and 7+. My wife can easily fit on a 64 GB phone but I'll get the 128. I will probably miss the optic zoom as I used it often on my 7+, but I think the pictures will look better with the new sensor w/larger pixels and improved processing. The Xs and Max are pretty pricey.
I started realistically thinking about it. I have a 6s. I don't watch a lot of things on my phone (prefer ipad or computer), I take some pictures but my phone takes good enough photos for what I would want. Extended battery life though, that seems promising. Only issue is it might be too big for me.
