Features of iPhone XR that still matter

The XR continues to be popular in the used and affordable iPhone market for a reason and one of those reasons is the practical feature set.

The iPhone XR has Face ID, True Tone, a wide colour P3 display, Haptic Touch, Portrait mode, optical image stabilisation and Smart HDR photography. Apple also added the A12 Bionic chip, built on a 7-nanometer process and paired with a second-generation Neural Engine.

The hardware still does the job for all the daily tasks like WhatsApp, social media, web browsing, photography, video streaming, calls, e-mail and general apps.

Another real-world benefit is the 6.1-inch screen. It’s big enough to comfortably browse and watch videos, but still makes the phone easier to manage than some larger modern smartphones.

Camera & Photography

The iPhone XR has one 12MP wide rear camera. Newer iPhones have multiple cameras and a more sophisticated computational photography system, but the XR is still able to take usable photos in the right lighting.

The rear camera has optical image stabilisation and includes options like Portrait mode, Depth Control, Portrait Lighting, Smart HDR, panorama and 4K video recording.

The TrueDepth front camera also enables Face ID and features like Portrait mode selfies. That makes the XR a viable alternative for those who want an iPhone primarily for everyday photography and social media, rather than professional mobile photography.

When Will iPhone XR Be Released?

The common search question:

When did the iPhone XR come out?

Apple announced the iPhone XR in September, 2018. It was released in stores on October 26, 2018 with pre-orders starting on October 19, 2018.

That means the device is much older than the current generations of iPhones. This is important when buying one today, as the condition of a single device can greatly impact its value and usability.

If you’re thinking about buying a used XR, check the battery health, the screen, Face ID, the cameras, the speakers, the charging port and general physical condition.

Is the iPhone XS Max 256GB worth it?

Whether the XR is the right choice for you depends on your budget and expectation.

For the individual who uses the iPhone for communication, social media, capturing photos, entertainment and everyday apps, the 128GB model can offer a decent amount of storage and a recognisable Apple experience.

The XR’s original performance advantage had a lot to do with the A12 Bionic chip. However, buyers should remember that this is a 2018 phone. Newer iPhones get newer processors, cameras, connectivity and longer software support.

So the XR is more of a budget-friendly way to get into the Apple ecosystem than a true replacement for a current flagship iPhone.

iPhone XR in Zambia for Sale

If you are looking to buy a Zambian iPhone XR, don’t just look at the advertized price.

Ask about the condition of the device, its battery life, storage space, warranty or return policy, and if the phone has been fully tested. If you’re buying a used device, make sure Face ID, cameras, speakers, microphones, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, charging, and the display are working.

Also make sure the phone is not locked to another person’s Apple account. A genuine seller would be able to tell you about the condition of the device and how to buy it.

Zam Zone Mobiles has a physical store in Lusaka and an online store so customers can check the availability of products and contact the business before buying. The iPhone XR 128GB is now available online at K4,600.

What About the iPhone XR Pro Max?

Let’s clear up a common search phrase that has been circulating “iPhone XR Pro Max” is not an official Apple model.

Apple launched the iPhone XR, the others in Apple’s iPhone lineup were termed “Pro Max”. So if you see a listing specifically described as a “iPhone XR Pro Max,” be sure to check the exact model before you pay.

This is particularly important when comparing a price smartphone listing online, as there are times when unofficial product names can cause confusion on the actual device being offered.

If you want an XR, make sure it’s a real iPhone XR and the storage is 128GB.
