iPhone XS and iPhone XS Max: that’s all about the new Apple iPhone
Tim Cook on the stage of the Steve Jobs Theater has finally removed the veils from the new iPhone that will arrive in the coming months. Three new versions of different sizes. Here are all the details.
iPhone XS and iPhone XS Max: Here are the new Apple iPhone. The Cupertino company led by Tim Cook has presented to the whole world its new smartphones ready to entertain and not only users who want them. The rumors of recent months had virtually unveiled what has actually been officialized by the company or a triad of smartphones: two with 5.8-inch and 6.5-inch OLED display and one with 6.1-inch LCD panel.
Tim Cook said in the conference how the iPhone is the first smartphone in the world with a satisfaction of 98% of users. A record for the mobile world.
iPhone XS and iPhone XS Max: Technical Specifications
The protagonists of the evening are undoubtedly them: the new iPhone XS and iPhone XS Max. Two new devices that Apple has decided to officially present and that resume virtually the appearance of the ” old ” iPhone X presented last year, expanding the size, for the Max version, which now has a 6.5-inch display.
For those who want a device less exaggerated in size, here is that Apple still retains the 5.8-inch diagonal format. For both Super Retina Display with OLED matrix with a resolution of respectively 2,436 x 1,125 pixels for the iPhone XS with 2.7 million pixels and 458 PPI and 2,688 x 1,242 pixels with 3.3 million pixels and 458 PPI.
To underline the fact that on both versions, there will be a panel with a sampling rate of 120Hz touch, then the 3D Touch that Apple continues to insert as well as the True Tone mode to allow it to adapt to ambient light.
Clearly present also the notch which maintains the same dimensions and which will also possess the same sensors capable of allowing the smartphone to be unlocked by means of Face ID and with the recognition of the face. Clearly, Apple has updated the sensors and the algorithm and everything will be even faster than before.
The new iPhone XS and iPhone XS Max were made of stainless steel that is usually used for surgical use. It has a new coating for the glass even more resistant, and we are probably talking about the new Gorilla Glass 6.
In this case, there are three new colors for the smartphone namely Silver, Space Gray and Gold, new color introduced at this conference. IP68 certification is introduced on the iPhone, which will even allow the smartphone to be used in water up to 2.5 meters for more than an hour.
Inside the new iPhone XS and iPhone XS Max is the first processor made with a production process at 7 nm: the new Apple A12 Bionic. The new CPU will be in possession of 6 cores to which will be added the 4 Core of the new GPU. Everything will be moved by other 2 cores for the performances that will act only when necessary, and we also do not forget the Neural Processing.
All this will give the iPhone 15% more speed than Apple A11 Bionic in the processor and even 50% faster in the GPU. The new iPhone are ready for Augmented Reality but also for the most stressful games.
As for the camera instead, Apple has decided to improve the sensors not so much in their size but in their quality. Here is that the new iPhone are in possession of a 12MPx double camera of which the first wide-angle with focal aperture of f/1.8 consists of 6 elements and clearly by the optical stabilization of the OIS image. The second sensor instead is usually a telephoto sensor with a focal aperture of f/2.4, 6 elements and the ability to go up to 2X zoom. The possibility of eliminating erroneous movements during a shot even during dark situations is very interesting.
The technical specifications are practically the same but different are the implementations that Apple has decided to put on the double camera. In this case improved is also the Flash True Tone that will allow quality shots even in the dark, at least from what was said by Apple.
On the other hand, Apple places a 7MPx camea with a focal aperture of f/2.2. Next to this, there is also an infrared sensor capable of helping the camera to improve the shots. Clearly, everything will be processed by Artificial Intelligence that will allow improvements to the shots, especially in the most difficult modes such as the famous bokeh. Precisely on the blurred that the new iPhone XS seems to be greatly improved because Apple will allow in the rear to change the focal aperture and thus increase or not the blur of the shot.
We also talk about the battery of the new iPhone XS and iPhone XS Max because Apple has implemented new capabilities allowing the card to increase by more than half an hour the autonomy of iPhone X and over an hour and a half more for iPhone XS Max. Number at the moment but the premises certainly seem important.
How important is the news concerning the connectivity compartment of the new iPhone XS and XS Max. Yes, because Apple has finally decided to implement the Dual SIM. From today all users who buy the new iPhone can use it with a dual SIM simultaneously.
The new iPhone XS and iPhone XS Max will be available in pre-order from this Friday, September 14, while will be distributed by next September 21 in all Apple Stores.
