The iPhone XR is Apple's low-cost iPhone this year, with an LCD display and a single-lens camera to keep costs down in comparison to the higher-end OLED models.

The iPhone XR is Apple's low-cost iPhone this year, with an LCD display and a single-lens camera to keep costs down in comparison to the higher-end OLED models.

I love how every Apple related site has adopted to Apple's PR speech without questioning it. The "low-cost" was the "normal" price for the latest-and-greatest iPhone, until they decided to introduce the newest tech only in the 6 Plus (with a price hike). Then they raised the prices for the 6s Plus, 7 Plus and 8 Plus a bit, and priced the X over the most expensive 8 Plus. I think this is one of Apple's PR most amazing achievements, that everyone writes "low-cost phone" where parts have to be older or less advanced "to keep costs down" when - a few years ago - they showed that they could put the latest stuff in their flagship model for the same price which is now considered "low-cost".

I know and understand that Apple's main goal today is to raise their iPhone ASP and to generate more "Services" revenue, which is why I have given up to see more than 5GB of free iCloud storage, or more than 64GB for the entry level iPhone or more than 128GB in an entry level MacBook, but the XR is anything but low-cost.
 
I am disappointed there’s no “spicy orange”. “Coral” is played out, like some kind of handbag color I would carry. Spicy Orange = Courage. :D It’s fabulous.

I’d love to see a yellow iPhone again. It’s been too long since Apple had some fun colors for their new products.

As was already said and will likely be said a million times today, the names are atrocious. But fun. They’re fun because they’re atrocious. Unfortunately they’re not Spicy Orange levels of fabulous fun.

I will take great pleasure in saying I want an IPhone Excess.

I keep thinking this has to be a huge publicity stunt between Conan O’Brien and Apple.

Between Apple’s odd names and Googles odd notch, it’s going to be a quirky year for smartphones.

I have the iPhone X 256 and I have barely used the available storage. This is course is a S year. Next year we will likely see something substantial.

Thankfully rumor is that the Max will take the $999 pricepoint and not be another tier beyond that.
