I upgraded to iPhone XS from 6s and you can definitely feel the difference in the speed and quality of the phone. The OLED screen is just gorgeous and extremely color accurate. You can feel the phone is very fast and dual camera takes some beautiful pictures. But is it worth 1000? It depends how much you use your device and care of the latest things. It is good upgrade from the iphone 6 and 7 but not from X. The face unlock is fast and accurate and works 95 percent of the time. I don't miss my fingerprint. The dual camera takes some beautiful low light photos and apple is way ahead in video quality. Iphone is also generation ahead in terms of processor. This phone is insanely fast, I mean really fast. The graphics on the games looks so stunning in the OLED screen. Lots of people complain about the notch but it is barely noticeable after couple of days. You would simply not care after a while. Apple did a bad move by not including the headphone adapter in a 1k phone which is just really pathetic for a trillion dollar company. I don't know where apple would take the next generation of iPhone from this design and I feel like the iPhone has matured to its point. And people would use their phone longer than before as the price has also increased much higher. For a thousand dollar, iPhone XS is priced 200 higher that its worth but if you want a best phone which has great app store, a privacy focus close software and just great combination of hardware and software experience, it is the king of the HILL.

Very disappointed in quality of new Iphone XS screen. I had the Iphone 6 since 2014 and have not had one scratch on the screen. I do have a case protector but not a screen protector. I have carried this phone in my pocket with multiple types of metal objects (ie keys) in the same pocket and have never gotten a scratch on the screen of the Iphone 6. On Feb 28, 2019 my iphone 6 stopped working so I went into Best Buy and purchased an Iphone XS w/ 256GB storage. That very day, with me doing nothing different than before, put my new in my pocket with my keys and put a 3 inch scratch across the surface. I called apple, since the phone was only hours old, and set up an appointment with a person inside the apple store (the only thing they would do over the phone). The person in the apple store told me that the screen is different and now scratches much easier, wish I would have known that. Since my phone is now only 4 days old the apple rep directed me to Best Buy for assistance. My thoughts were, Best Buy is an ethical company with a great return policy and they stand behind the products they sell. This is the reason I still shop there and not online. I go to Best Buy, their return policy is 14 days on phones and online they state that they will do what ever it takes if a customer is dissatisfied (return, repair, or replace) with their purchase to make them satisfied. Well don't believe what you read because that is not true. All I wanted was to exchange my phone with another and the manager at Best Buy said once a product leaves the store Best Buy are no longer responsible for the quality of said product. To be able to become a satisfied customer you must return the product as if it were brand new. All around poor experience from both companies that no longer value the customer. Please do your due diligence if you would like a phone to last longer than a day.

The iPhone XS has been a nice upgrade from my previous 6S+. The OLED screen provides great picture quality and the double cameras take wonderful photographs. The battery life is great - even after streaming videos or scrolling through Facebook. Although it took some getting used to, the weight of the stainless steel body seems to hold up well so far. It is easy to flip between open apps with the “drag and hold” feature. The only reason I’m giving it 4 stars is that Apple always has the same appearance and feel as the older models, making it a little boring. I know that’s the draw for some, especially non-tech savvy people, but it was somewhat of a deterrent for me. It also took me a while to figure out how to open the flashlight or camera while the screen was locked. Other than that, it has been a great phone and I would recommend it to other iPhone lovers.

It's an iPhone. It's going to have amazing build quality, an amazing screen, Apple quality iOS, tons of features and a top quality camera. It's amazing! It is almost identical to the iPhone X of 2017, but there are a few very subtle differences. The main difference in this years model, the XS has the new A12 processor that does some insane processing that is basically what a desktop computer could do a few years back (and then some)... but this is in a phone. Pretty crazy! These phones are also pretty expensive. If this phone wasn't going to be covered by my job, I wouldn't have gotten one. I'd rather spend my money on a full size laptop. But it is what it is. An Apple product. So... good job Apple.

As an avid Apple user who usually has his phones for around for years I found this phone to be an incredible upgrade. Now before I post too much about the phone it was on fortunate that my first phone actually had a faulty modem and I had to turn it back in for a new one. Luckily, Best Buy was extremely helpful With replacing the phone and setting me up with a new one and replaced the screen protector that I had on the prior broken phone. As for the phone phenomenal pictures swiping up is extremely easy and the difference betwee 6 and no button is inconsequential. I love the swiping it’s easier! Memoji best thing of all time but I’m a sucker for talking cartoons.

I usually purchase the phones with Bestbuy but for black Friday there wasn't much of a sale I asked for the 100 promo gift card they told me no specials only specials I got with my carrier for up grading is 50 off from oruginal price. Plus the store was so busy and who ever helped me out has to leave didn't finish the process someone took over and my phone wasn't activated went home try to do it my self and I couldn't so I had to make another trip the McAllen store. Someone from geek squad activated. But I shouldn't go back and worth it should be done right there not for me to do it myself knowing the phone will get disconnected in the process

Well done, Apple. This is my favorite iPhone to date. I was skeptical of “the notch” and FaceID, but I realized it wasn’t going away and my 6s was showing it’s age with battery life (although iOS 12 really made it much faster). The experience on this phone is so fluid. It is very intuitive, easy and fast to navigate. And FaceID...nice. I don’t like having to use TouchID on my other devices now. If you’re unsure of these next gen features like I was, I assure you won’t be disappointed. Get one.

I love this phone!!! I previously owned the 6S plus and chose to not upgrade to the 7 or 8 or the X; I figured a newer better model would come out soon. I'm so glad that I waited. The portrait effects/filters are awesome, the measuring app is amazing and the cool filters for picture taking through the message app is the coolest; I love the "comic book" and "animoji" filters. Overall it responds well, its sleek and the pics come out amazing (professional looking). This is by far the best phone i've ever had.
