Really, they went with "XS" for the biggest phone yet?
- masklinn 8y agoIt's actually XS Max. Like pepsi. XS is the smallest of the three phones announced today.
- make3 8y agoI find the "Max" term very pepsi like and very ugly for Apple.
- twiceaday 8y agoNo, it is the same size as the XR.
- joshschreuder 8y agoThe XS is smaller than the XR. https://www.apple.com/au/iphone/compare/ https://www.apple.com/au/iphone/compare/ XS H: 143.6mm W: 70.9mm D: 7.7mm WEI: 177g XR H: 150.9mm W: 75.7mm D: 8.3mm WEI: 194g
- masklinn 8y agoIt really is not. The XR is quite a bit bigger (150.9x75.7x8.3mm versus 143.6x70.9x7.7mm) and with a bigger (6.1" versus 5.8") but lower-quality screen (326 DPI LED w/o 3D touch versus 458 DPI OLED w/ 3D touch).
- excalibur 8y agoYou know, like the Xbox One S X Box1. Apple seems to enjoy mimicking Microsoft's retarded naming conventions.
- reaperducer 8y agoApple's been using the S designation since 2009, with the iPhone 3GS. Then the 4S, 5S, 6S, and 6S Plus. The Xbox One S came seven years after the iPhone got an S.
