iPhone XR
User Experience
I have been using this phone since the year it was released (2018) and it honestly still works as good as it did the first day I got it. At the time it was a really expensive phone but if you look at how long the iPhone XR holds up, it was definitely worth it.
Despite being almost four years old, the phone really isn’t that outdated. Of course newer phones will have better performance etc. but the iPhone XR has never disappointed me until this day.
Even the battery still holds up perfectly and if it ever were to wear out, I would just pay to get a new battery placed since that’s a lot cheaper than buying a new phone. I honestly can see myself using this phone for a few more years since it’s still in perfect condition.
Positive & Negative Points
BATTERY
The iPhone XR has a 2,942 mAh battery, 8.3 percent larger than the battery in the iPhone X and 10.6 percent larger than the battery in the iPhone XS.
Screen
The iPhone XR screen is 1792×828 pixels. This means it cannot display a 1080p movie without some downsampling, unlike the XS, XS Max, or the iPhone 8 Plus.
PROCESSOR
The iPhone XR is equipped with a new 7-nanometer A12 Bionic chip that’s faster and more efficient than the A11 in the previous-generation iPhone X.
MATERIAL
The iPhone XR is made out of aluminum. It doesn’t look quite as nice as the polished stainless steel on the iPhone XS.
CAMERA
The images we got from the iPhone XR were sharp, with plenty of detail and well-controlled noise levels. The images were well exposed and had good contrast.
In terms of video, the iPhone XR clearly leads the pack with 4K60 video recording.
.
BEZELS
The bezels make videos appear letterboxed at times and the experience isn’t particularly enjoyable. Also, the notch cuts into the video if you make it fullscreen.
Mobiland
Could it be sold?
Right now this phone could definitely be sold in the Mobiland game, since the price has dropped significantly since the drop so it could fit the role of a mid-range phone perfectly. If we look at the most sold products in the Mobiland game, the mid-range phone is for sure what most people go for.
So looking at the specifications, the price and the ask for mid-range phones, the iPhone XR would have a big potential in the Mobiland game.
