The company announced on Wednesday its largest smartphone ever: the 6.5-inch iPhone XS Max. The Max has a larger display than the usual Plus size phones but a similar body.



Apple also showed off a 5.8-inch iPhone XS ($999) and the 6.5-inch iPhone XS Max ($1,449) -- its most expensive iPhone ever.



The cameras on the phones are, as usual, "better than ever before," said Apple exec Phil Schiller, who has uttered the same words at previous events. The new 12 megapixel cameras have bigger sensors and an improved HDR mode.



Both devices have a longer battery life than the original iPhone X. The iPhone XS will have 30 more minutes of battery life, and the iPhone XS Max will last up to an hour and a half longer.



Apple surprised with a third smartphone, the "lower-end" iPhone XR ($749). The 6.1-inch features a bright LCD screen and comes in a variety of colors, including white, black, blue, coral and red. It's missing a home button and is activated by swiping up.



The device only has one camera -- a 12 pixel wide-angle camera -- but Apple added a similar portrait feature found in its dual camera devices, which blurs the background. The device kills the 3D touch feature but added some haptic feedback, so the screen vibrates a bit in response to touch.



The phones have faster networking support. Travelers will be happy to hear they'll have more bands for better roaming and dual SIM capabilities to support multiple plans and two phone numbers on one device.



The iPhone X line also packs augmented reality tools to have more realistic graphics and object reflections.



In addition, the company unveiled an upgraded Apple Watch. The Series 4 has a 30% larger edge-to-edge display and is thinner. It has more reliable reception and is two times faster. The new watch also has greater focus on health. It can predict when you fall and send that data to an emergency contact.



The new Apple Watch comes with a built-in (and FDA-approved) EKG to help diagnose heart diseases and other conditions, making it the first EKG device available over the counter, according to Apple.


Pricing and availability


The iPhone XS Max -- with 512 GB of storage -- will be the most expensive iPhone ever. Meanwhile, the iPhone XS will cost the same as last year's iPhone X ($999). The original iPhone X is now $200 cheaper.



Apple will continue to sell the iPhone 7 and iPhone 8 in regular and Plus sizes. The cheapest phone in the iPhone line up is the iPhone 7, starting at $449. The iPhone 8 starts at $599.



The iPhone XS and XS Max will be available to pre-order on Friday September 14, and ship Friday September 21 in the US and other countries.



You'll be able to pre-order the iPhone XR beginning Friday, October 19, and it will hit stores on Friday, October 26, in more than 50 countries.



The Apple Watch Series 4 will cost $499 for built-in connectivity and $399 for a standard model. It will be available for pre-order starting Friday and ship Friday September 21.

Apple and Samsung are just too stubborn for my likeness; apple forming lord of facial recognition and not using fingerprint anymore while Samsung forming king of iris scanner and ignoring facial recognition, you guys should just be using your goodwill anyhow but remember Huawei and Xiaomi are fast coming.

Nice specs anyways

lol crap as usual. They knew there was nothing much to offer this year so they had to discontinue the original iphone x cause it almost has the same specs with the new models except xr. don't be deceived, the real price of the iphone xr will cost up to $900 and doesn't even have 1080p support in 2018. the xs max, up to $1.5k, yet just a little upgrade.

specs/functions you may not even use or visit for the 365 days, after which you will be brainwashed to get a new model.

See how this one is busy making a fool of himself.. Can you on your own tell the difference between ip67 and ip68 without quoting exactly what apple inc will tell you??
That's the problem with people generally, we like being scammed. During Steve Jobs era, new Iphones came with class but since his death, the new company owners have been just band of greedy lots looking for ways to scam people at every slightest chance. If I buy this Iphone now, of what need is it? When in less than 6 months, they'll release a newer one probably by changing only the affix. They already know they have unpaid foot soldiers in people like Op, who even being completely delusional of the contents of the phone, will help them in propagating their scam..

Iphone is the Biggest scam in the world..

Let's wait for IPhone Xs Max s and also expect Op to tell me that one has ip69 and iPhone Xs mas has ip68

Mtchwwwwww

These are the worst set of iPhones to be released 

iPhone XR with 6.1 inch but with a 720 p resolution and a single camera, no home button and finger print scanner. So they expect iPhone 7 plus users to buy this? 720P flagship in 2018, really from a trillion dollar company?

iPhone XS is literally an iPhone X hence the reason for the discontinuation of iPhone X because Apple knows it's meaningless upgrading from X to XS and new buyers will rather buy X since it's cheaper and the same with its successor.

iPhone XS Max is a bumped up screen of iPhone XS which is literally iPhone X

On the Gmail iOS app, the Search, Archive, Delete, Unread, and Forward buttons are onlyaccessible...from the very top.

On iOS, the notification bar only opens from the very top. 

On the iOS Safari app, the double-tap gesture only works...from the very top.

etc

The entire OS and app system have continuously expected users have "fast access" to the top of their screens. Most people's hands have not appreciably grown since last year. 


No dongle, no fast charger, no headphone jack, more expensive battery replacement and more expensive device overall. A trillion dollar company with so much greed, even a start up company includes these basics in the box. 

The sheeple will surely justify the phones

Ngwan ndi ji ego over to una, help us drop the prices of already existing iPhones

We love them old

All these new iPhones aren't as expensive as I thought. I was really expecting the least to be around ₦1M. Niggas right now be thinking why they have two kidneys . Awon small girl big God will not rest too.. #update
