So is the differences between the 10Xr and the 10Xs basically:

Screen size and type
Cameras

....?

It seems like the chip inside is the same?

And 3D touch.

If it has the same A12 Bionic and faceid array and camera as iPhone X[s] is the only difference just the screen?

Rick: Feb 23, 2004; When I was 17, my father was so stupid, I didn't want to be seen with him in public. When I was 24, I was amazed at how much the old man had learned in just 7 years.

Ah man I was sold on the 10R until no 3D touch.

The gap between OLED and LCD is a big loving deal.

gently caress Face ID, a really good OLED screen is the proper iPhone X differentiator.

Buying one of these. I just hope they double the storage. No one ever programmed for the 3D touch anyways.

I'm thinking the Xs is the sweet spot. I don't particularly like BFP's.

I don't understand why they didn't include it. It doesn't make sense.

Good battery life though.

I'm assuming the Xr doesn't have wireless charging either? Did they mention anything about that for any of the phones?

My internet is poo poo at work, so the mid level one has the same screen size as the current 8+ but has a smaller body, is that it? Because I don't think I want a bigger loving phone.

Edit: does the XS mid range have dual cameras as well?
