Apple iPhone Xs VS iPhone X - It's not an upgrade..

This is the iPhone Xs, the smaller version of Apple's latest flagship.. and this.. Well it's not an iPhone Xs, but it almost is. The biggest question we've got on social media is if it's worth upgrading from an iPhone X to an iPhone Xs, and well, I think this is the first year where it's debatable to even call this an upgrade. I'm Jaime Rivera with Pocketnow and this is iPhone Xs vs iPhone X, brought to you by the geniuses over at Wix.

Why would you upgrade from an iPhone X to a XS? Since when was it smart to upgrade to the s models if you already had the iPhone that came out a year before it. The s series is really designed for people who may have didn’t upgrade to last years iPhone but needed that extra little push and that’s what in my opinion all the s series have been about

I would buy an iPhone but I got to buy a house

[marksman]

That is probably the reason why Apple discontinued the iPhone X

Too expensive for a camera software update

Not an apple sheep but with the new hdr thing on xs, it a possibility that the phone detected the natural shadows as dark thing so it lightened it by the hdr

But a slight beautifying could be a possibility because with some wrinkles ang grains removed, some smoothing algorithms are there

Perfect example of buying the same phone twice.

i think the s series are only meant for people with older phones, not if you already have the X. Most phone contracts are 24 months (2 years) so they produce a brand new phone with noticeable differences every 2 years so its in sync with most contracts. Maybe? thats what i think

The one year Apple does what everyone has been asking for for years (significantly improving performance with new firmware) and everyone gives them shit for their hardware.

I agree that the Xs is barely an upgrade for the iPhone X. It is, however, a fantastic upgrade for iPhone 7/7 Plus owners that are on a two-year contract and are looking to upgrade their phone.

And wouldn’t you know, the phones are actually targeted to those people, not the early adopters that jumped on the iPhone X.

iPhones are thicc and heavy...why? Why can't Apple put a 4000mah battery and call it a day?

Hi Jaime. Always enjoy your videos. Your voice is soothing. 😁

[sarfrajahmed]

Just change the Wallpaper and Boom your Iphone x is upgraded to Xs
lol

[alexkwan]

You can turn off the attention feature so it doesn’t require you to look at the phone to unlock...

[necomatthews]

I’m just gonna buy the X and tell everyone I got the Xs lmao

[SmoovyNovaFan]

i buy the latest iphone every 2 years and when i changed from the 6 plus to the 7 plus i was disappointed with the lack of changes physically, but the camera and the internal upgrades more than makes up for it

[TheRubyGamersTRG]

It’s not supposed to be an upgrade for X users. It’s aimed to make a better version of it and it’s meant for people with older phones, like the 8 or 7 or further back.

[shawng]

Good, honest review! Pretty much my thoughts exactly! Except with the camera comparisons you showed I honestly didn't notice a HUGE difference between the two....

[Schrsmnymkr]

The fact that apple discontinued manufacturing of the x tells me they know the xs is not an upgrade just and excuse to Jack up the price smdh

[fbgduval]

The next iPhone probably won't have a power button or volume buttons on the side. They could use the double tap method that LG has used for years and use gestures for changing the volume

[marksman]

A difference is a dual sim support on xs which is not on the x
