![]() Equally, the iPhone X’s metal case is susceptible to scratches, so it is likely that the XS Max’s will be too as they are both made of the same alloy. We would recommend getting a screen protector and a case to protect your XS Max, even though Apple’s outlandish claim proves to be true as initial drop tests indicate that the iPhone XS is structurally stronger than its bigger sibling. Apple further claims that they use the most structurally stable glass ever used in a smartphone in their XS series devices. The fit and finish of our 64-GB Space Gray XS Max test device is excellent, but the whole device is a fingerprint magnet. According to Apple each of the XS series’ stainless-steel frames are sophisticatedly matched to their respective case color. ![]() The XS Max is available in either Space Gray, Silver or a new Gold variant. The 6.5-inch display has plenty of screen space even if you discount the areas surrounding the notch. However, the device is a few grams lighter than both the Samsung Galaxy Note 9 and the Sony Xperia XZ2 Premium. The XS Max is considerably heavier though at 208 g (~7.3 oz) given its gargantuan size. Equally, the XS Max retains the iPhone X’s infamous notch, and it is just as thick at a reported 7.7 mm (~0.3 in). The camera sensors are still in the same place, the back has the same simple reflective glass design, and the frame is still made of stainless steel. The iPhone XS Max follows the same design as the iPhone X, but on a larger scale. We have chosen to compare the XS Max against not only its predecessor, but also the Sony Xperia XZ2 Premium, the Samsung Galaxy Note 9, the Google Pixel 2 XL, the Huawei Mate 10 Pro and the LG G7 ThinQ. The XS Max faces stiff competition from Android flagship devices to be crowned the best smartphone of 2018. Hence, you can still dip your toe into the iPhone ecosystem from 519 Euros (~$608). However, while the XS Max replaces its iPhone 8 Plus and X counterparts, Apple is still selling its older models such as the 7 and 8. What is more, the cheapest version costs a whopping 1,249 Euros (~$1,465). The XS Max is Apple’s largest and most expensive iPhone yet, costing almost 2,000 Euros (~$2,346) for the 512 GB version when bought with Apple Care a truly eye-watering amount of money for a smartphone. Sony and the rest of them have been slow to bring big improvements to the public.How the iPhone XS Max improves over its predecessor is best summarized as follows: a higher quality and huge 6.5-inch notched display, a faster processor, even safer FaceID and a better camera. Here's what else I think, if it wasn't for apple, I don't think we would have seen the advances in portable cameras as we are seeing today. To be fair, photographers are always looking for the good on the spot camera, but many used to carry two, one for day shots and one for night. ![]() personal, again, I prefer the apple over the samsung, the Samsung seemed to vivid and the napkin appeared very dark.īeing that I only ever look at my pictures once and they are never compared against photos from other phones, I'm not qualified to really know the difference and I feel like I speak for the millions of others who aren't pro photographers and the camera would never be enough for me to switch to samsung. As for the ice cream shots, we don't have the same advantage as the photographer in knowing what the ice cream looked like and how it compares to the photo. Personally, I preferred all the iPhone photos and it might be age related, I'm 55 and eyesight goes down with age.
