Fast-charge capable: Up to 50% charge in 30 minutes 9with 18W adapter or higher (available separately) iPhone XS and iPhone XS Max are splash, water, and dust resistant and were tested under controlled laboratory conditions with a rating of IP68 under IEC standard 60529 (maximum depth of 2 meters up to 30 minutes). Splash, water, and dust resistance are not permanent conditions and resistance might decrease as a result of normal wear. Do not attempt to charge a wet iPhone; refer to the user guide for cleaning and drying instructions. Liquid damage not covered under warranty.

Fast-charge testing conducted with drained iPhone units. Charge time varies with environmental factors; actual results will vary.The iPhone XS and XS Max use the same dual-lens rear camera system. Last year, when the 8 Plus and X were announced, Apple made a big deal about a larger image sensor. Our testing, along with iFixit's X-rays, showed that, if the sensor was indeed larger, it was only minimally so. The really radical innovation here isn't active on our test phone as of this writing. That's the iPhone's new eSIM, dual-SIM capability. Less than 5 percent of Americans carry dual-SIM phones, because carriers haven't sold them up until now. When dual SIM is active, it will allow you to add a second, temporary, or permanent subscription on a supported carrier. Why do this? You may want separate home and work numbers, or add a temporary number when traveling abroad. The question on everyone's mind is the same as it is with every phone: Is the iPhone XS better in low light? The sensor is, without question. It manages to capture images with crisp detail and little noise through ISO 100. That's not a high number if you're talking about a full-frame camera, but for a phone? It's up there with the best we've tested, negating the one-stop advantage the Galaxy S9+ showed over last year's iPhones in our testing. It used to be that I reviewed iPhones in cooperation with Tim Gideon, our audio analyst. The iPhone was a phone, plus a handheld computer, plus an iPod, after all. I don't think that's really the case anymore. The iPhone is now a handheld computer, plus a camera, so I turned it over to our senior camera analyst, Jim Fisher, to test it. The iPhone XS is a great leap forward from the iPhone 8 and X in LTE capabilities. The key is 4x4 MIMO, which uses four antennas rather than two to improve signal strength and speeds. We'll test that further in the weeks to come, but in our experience with other devices, 4x4 has had very dramatic effects on LTE performance. Take a look at the charts in our Fastest Mobile Networks story comparing iPhones with Galaxy phones and notice that even the Galaxy S8 was, on average, faster than the iPhone X: That's 4x4 MIMO.

On the front, the XS has a sharp 7-megapixel camera that also allows you to adjust bokeh after the fact, thanks to the infrared depth sensors used for Face ID. A Unique OS However, even those slower cores are still more powerful than any of those found in the iPhone 6, a handset that's only four years old, showing just how rapidly smartphone technology is progressing in terms of power and efficiency. iPhone 14, iPhone 14 Pro, iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Pro can detect a serious car crash and call for help. Requires a mobile data connection or Wi‑Fi calling. Apple takes a complete product life cycle approach to determining our environmental impact.
