The 4 Announcements From Apple’s iPhone Event That Actually Matter

The flying elephant of the new lot is the iPhone Xs Max, which sounds like it could be a new flavor of Mountain Dew, or perhaps an extreme sport. The prices here in India could probably be well out of your reach. But other than that detail and the names of the devices, we’re still in the dark about this year’s iPhones.

Apple is preparing to unveil their new iPhone at a big tech event, and the public can see the big reveal by streaming it online.

That price point makes it less expensive than the iPhone 8 Plus; its affordable price combined with state-of-the-art technology is something the company is “very proud” of.

Sam’s Club is throwing in a $100 gift card to members who purchase and activate an iPhone XS or iPhone XS Max from September 21st through September 23rd with either AT&T, Sprint, or Verizon.

The form factor is almost identical to the original but the iPhone Xs Max has a giant 6.5-inch screen. The 256GB version will be priced at Rs 1,24,900, while the 512GB version is priced at a staggering Rs 1,44,900.

The 6.1-inch screen is bigger than the iPhone X. The smartphone is easy to hold and offers a firm grip as well.

Or if you want an iPhone XS with more memory then you can put down an extra stack of cash and secure all that extra room for photos, tunes and video. The iPhone XS Max also comes in those three storage capacities and starts at $1,099.

It introduced the iPhone XS, 6.5-inch iPhone XS Max and iPhone XR.

Display The one major difference between the iPhone XS and iPhone XR lies in the display.

Others pointed out that it was a missed opportunity, arguing that the firm should have called its XS Max – which has the biggest iPhone display yet – the iPhone XL. In 2017, an icon of the iPhone X’s design was discovered within Apple’s HomePod firmware ahead of the company’s announcement. They come in gold, silver, and space gray. That gives the phone more visual real estate than similar-sized models.

The company announced that it will start shipping the gadgets at the end of September with XR expected to be shipped in mid-October.

Screen size. Like the iPhone X before it, the Xs Max uses an organic liquid crystal display, which are renowned for richer colors, while putting less stress on the battery. Though the headphones got off to a slow start, they have quickly helped Apple capture 26% of the US wireless headphone market, according to NPD Group.

To differentiate itself from the iPhone XS series, the XR gets the iPhone 5C treatment with a choice of six colours, namely Blue, White, Black, Yellow, Coral and Red.
