Has anyone noticed that the XS and XS Max boxes have a much better quality image of these new bubble wallpapers than the actual wallpaper inside the phone?

Why would Apple do this? Lol.

It’s so strange to me. The wallpapers are so blurry on the left side.
 
Based off of the title, I thought this thread was going to be about the horrible stock wallpapers that Apple has now.

I know you can pick your own, but the stock ones are just so crappy compared to the older ones imo.

I noticed this. Too bad. I really like those three wallpapers. It is a shame the high res version on the boxes is not available anywhere.

I still think Forstall getting canned is the cause of our crappy wallpapers these past few years.

The new iPad wallpapers look awesome but I agree with the iPhone ones.

I haven’t seen them in person, but they look good from images I see online.

The iPhone XR wallpapers are great.

To me they only look better in terms of their detail/resolution. I love the XS wallpapers, but just can’t stand the blur.

Such a strange decision. I wonder if they’ll ever become available.
