New iPhone 2018 – Apple has announced its three new iPhones officially for 2018. These are going to replace iphone’s previous version the iPhone X. Apple has already started to pull the iPhone X from its store after the announcement.
The three new iphone 2018 are the iPhone XR, iPhone XS, and iPhone XS Max. So if you are going to buy a new “IPhone X” this year, you have to choose one of these three. The iPhone XS and iPhone XS Max have almost the same specifications but of two different sizes. The iPhone XR is comparatively cheaper with a few compromises.
The iPhone XR price starts at $799 for the lowest storage capacity which is 64 GB. The iPhone XS starts at $999 for 64 GB which is similar to that of last year’s iPhone X. The XS Max with 64GB storage capacity costs $1,099. The prices rise from there with the rise in internal storage.
Apple has experimented with cheaper iPhones before, with the iPhone SE and the iPhone 5C. But they didn’t last long as their designs stood far apart from the normal iPhones. But, the cheaper iPhone XR is designed with many of the same specifications as the top-tier iPhones. The iPhone XR comes in bright colors and has some slimmed-down features, similar to a smaller battery than that of the new iPhone XSes. The pricing is the most striking for iPhone fans.
Preorders for the iPhone XS and XS Max will begin this Friday, September 14, 2018 and the phones will be going on sale in next Friday, September 21, 2018. The iPhone XR preorders will begin in October 19, 2018 and it will go on sale in October 26, 2018.
