The iPhone XS and the iPhone XS Max have received rave reviews all over the Internet. People are commending the design elements, processor, camera that has a lower shutter lag, and the higher screen resolution with dynamic and far more pixels for greater resolution.
All things considered, Apple has come out with a standout product that delivers on all fronts. People who complain about battery life and screen size will be pleasantly surprised when it comes to the XS Max, which has a stunning OLED display that exceeds 6 inches and a battery life that lasts over 10 hours. The iPhone XS Max pre order was one of the most popular and saw phones flying off the shelves. Let’s compare both these phones on the following key parameters:
1. Design and size
Apple has really innovated when it comes to size and it has something for everyone. For people who like comparatively smaller screens, the XS stays at 5.8 inches like its predecessor last year. However, the XS Max comes in at a whopping 6.5 inches to give you more focus and depth. This makes content streaming on the XS Max far more engaging and immersive. The stainless steel design and the color combinations of gold, silver, and grey really catch your eye, giving a touch of class and style to the iPhones. None of the phones feature a home button so you have to work with the touch screen option only.
2. Battery life
The battery life on the iPhone XS and iPhone XS Max phones really pack a punch. The battery life on the smaller XS comes in at a stunning 9 hours and 41 minutes of relentless surfing on a full charge. Now while this may come under the category average, it is still considered powerful performance. However, there is no question that the battery life of the Apple iPhone XS Max truly brings the heat. It clocks in at an unbelievable 11 hours and 30 minutes of surfing. The battery life was so long that even testers got tired testing it. The phones can be recharged using a fast-charge power adapter, which comes as an add-on from Apple and needs to purchased separately.
3. Value for money
We all know that iPhones cost a bundle, but these new prices for the XS and the XS Max are sky-high and will really burn a hole in your pocket. The 64 GB model of the XS costs an unbelievable $999 USD. However, what gets really unbelievable is the cost of the XS Max, which starts at $1099 USD for the 64 GB version, which is simply unheard of in phones. The phones also cost far more for the 256 GB and 512 GB versions. For example, the iPhone XS Max price goes up to $1249 USD for the 256 GB version. The price of iPhone XS Max and XS with 512 GB is quite exorbitant, at $400 USD more than the base models for both versions of the phone.
Conclusion: All things considered, the iPhone XS and the iPhone XS Max are similar in many respects. The XS and XS Max feature the same bionic processor, which is the A12 chip that has fans all over the world raving. The CPU and GPU of both phones are also similar. The real difference in value is with the iPhone XR, which is cheaper but has several of the same capabilities and functions as the other two iterations of the new phone. Both iPhone XS and XS Max come in myriad colors that really stand out and add a touch of elegance to the phone.
