iPhone XS Release Date
Apple officially sold the inaugural trio of the 2018 iPhone in nearly 30 countries starting September 21 yesterday. For the Southeast Asian region, Singapore became the first country visited.
Each is named iPhone XS, iPhone XS Max, and iPhone XR. iPhone XS and iPhone XS Max are the successors of the iPhone X which was released last year. The enhancements include the first A12 Bionic processor with a 7 nm architecture, a 12 megapixel (wide and tele) dual camera, and dual-SIM support. While the iPhone XR actually carries specifications and designs that are not too different. It's just that, this smartphone is priced cheaper, so there are several advantages of the iPhone XS and XS Max that are not found on this phone.
