Customers are saying

Customers love the iPhone XS 256GB's camera quality and screen size, frequently praising its ease of use and Face ID features. Positive feedback also highlights the device's performance and storage capacity, although some find the price to be high. A few users mentioned the phone's weight and the absence of a headphone jack as drawbacks. The lack of a home button was a point of contention for some, while others appreciated its absence.

    Nice, smooth, but still some quirks.

    Overheats with wireless charging so much that it locked up today and would not reset.. I enjoy the phone ecosystem with the Macbook Pro, Apple watch, Apple TV, and etc. As a closed system, works great. I'm a long term Android user/Windows/Linux, so it's not a big deal to change around. The design, as always with Apple, is impeccable.

    I am in love with this phone. Battery life is great! I have always been an android user, but this phone is way better than the Samsung phones that I have had in the past.

    Transitioning from the iPhone 6s to the iPhone XS has been much more fluid than previous upgrades. Also easier to connect with other Apple products! Camera much improved!

    This is my first new phone since the 5s and it is amazing. I can do so much more and I love the camera. Go with the 256 gb so you don’t run out of memory with the 64gb,

    I purchased the Apple IPhone XS at the Best Buy In Plano and I’m so glad I did. The sales staff were so patient and took the time to bring me up to speed on some of the new options available on this product. I can’t stress enough about how the Best Buy team is and are some The Best Sales Staff to assist a customer with a new purchase. The phone at first can be little intimidating but for the most part many of the procedures are very intuitive. You will have great fun with all of the options that this phone has. Oh the camera is awesome too. Highly recommend. Highly recommend phone and outstanding staff.

    Having come over from andriod, I was anticipating a steep learning curve with the Iphone system. I was pleasantly surprised at how easy the transition was for me. The phone looks great and meets all of my expectations with regard to speed and multi-tasking needs. Kudos to BB staff for their patience in explaining the phone's features and addressing any concerns I had.

    I have the iPhone X and it’s been by favorite upgrade since the iPhone 4. Face ID was a great idea. Got the XS just to make sure we were current with the latest processor.

    This is my 3rd iPhone, love the big screen size. Initially it was very uncomfortable to use it without home button, took a little while to learn it.

    It works great , with one drawback. If I don"t turn it off once a day, text messages and phone calls will not register. When I turn it off, and then back on, I will be barraged by text and phone messages that occurred at some point after the last time I rebooted it. I am taking it to have it looked at , and possibly. find a solution.

    I've had every iPhone since the 4s, and I think the new one is always the best! The camera is by far the best on any iPhone. I wanted the XR but I'm glad I went with this XS!

    I upgraded my self from an Iphone 8 to an XS and the system works great, it is nice not to be having to press the home button, everything is finger slide away.
