iPhone XR (pronounced iPhone 10R1) is a model of the twelfth generation of the Apple iPhone. He was introduced to the public on September 12, 2018, during a keynote at the Steve Jobs Theater in Cupertino2.

Its release in France and Belgium takes place on October 26, 20183.

New

The device is equipped with an eSIM in addition to the SIM card slot, except in China where it is replaced by a dual SIM4.

The other main novelty is the A12 Bionic chip capable of performing calculations 50% faster than the chip A11 iPhone X, itself equipping the iPhone XS5. This allows him to do more advanced real-time calculations for augmented reality and machine-learning. We also note the first LCD Liquid Retina LCD (the LCD with the best colors and faithful bright) without edge with a notch.

Finally, the camera of the iPhone XR now allows to manage Portrait mode, with a single lens. Note that on this device, Apple has chosen to integrate only one photo sensor. DxOMark, which specializes in camera and smartphone performance testing, has recently said that the unique iPhone XR photo sensor offers quality photos that are almost equivalent to that of the iPhone XS. necessary]
