The internals (CPU/GPU/Neural Engine) are pretty decent imo. Together with a now optimised IOS, they should fuse together nicely & result in a very slick interface.

Did anyone catch the amount of RAM in these phones??
Apple never releases information on ram. We’ll have to wait for some independent Geekbench scores to find out..
 
The one key feature SHOULD have been an $899 price point. At $250 more than the XR (which is in some ways a better phone), the smaller XS seems like the suckers' buy.

Yeah, I can’t really figure out the XS. £250 for an OLED screen, one more camera (that doesn’t enable a whole lot more apart from 2x zoom) and stainless steel instead of aluminium seems pretty steep.

The XR is worse than it looks because the screen is basically 720p with much lower PPI. I personally wouldn’t be willing to take a step back like that. Battery comparisons should be interesting.

Yeah it's funny how they're sticking with keeping that under wraps. When their Android competitors are falling over themselves to use it as a marketing trump card, Apple keeps it hush hush.

iPhones usually fall behind when it comes to App refreshes so it'll be interesting to see if they addressed RAM Management &/or beefed up the amount of RAM to solve this Achilles heel of theirs.
