Apple iPhone XR specs
This week, Apple finally unveiled three new iPhones in their annual launching event taking place in the US. Yesterday, we have introduced you to the two high-end iPhone XS and XS Max. Today, let’s talk about the most affordable device between these three: iPhone XR. To bring down the cost, Apple decided to equip this iPhone with an LCD screen, instead of the usual Super AMOLED. On the other hand, Apple also gave this new display a new name – Liquid Retina.
Notably, the iPhone XR screen has the same pixel density as the iPhone 8 Retina display (326ppi), resolution is 822 x 1,1792px (so below 1080p). Moreover, the panel did gain the 120Hz touch sensing (not to be confused with a 120Hz refresh rate) and the wider colour gamut of its AMOLED-based siblings. As for the size, Apple iPhone XR specs sport a 6.1-inch screen with 19.5:9 aspect ratio. Under the hood, the iPhone also runs on Apple A12 Bionic chipset and iOS 12 version.
Regarding the photography system, Apple iPhone XR camera includes a single 12MP lens (f/1.8, 28mm, 1/2.55″, 1.4µm, OIS, PDAF, Smart HDR, adjustable bokeh) as the rear snapper. On the front, there is another 7 MP, f/2.2, 32mm sensor. As for the storage, this iPhone offers 3GB RAM with 64/128/256 GB ROM (no card slot). On the other hand, Apple also dropped the Touch ID fingerprint reader on this iPhone as well. Instead, the Apple iPhone XR now arrives with the new True Depth camera for Face ID. Moreover, Apple is offering this iPhone in Blue, Yellow, Coral, Black and Product Red colours.
