A12 Bionic

The iPhone XS is powered by the Apple A12 Bionic chipset. The A12 Bionic first appeared in the iPhone XS, XS Max, XR, and 2019 versions of the iPad Air and iPad Mini.

Unsurprisingly, the iPhone XS also has a pretty-same performance when you put it in comparison with the iPhone XS Max, one of the main reason is that it provides the same internal features like its bigger accompany iPhone XS Max.

The iPhone XS reacts quickly and positively, thanks to the six-core Apple A12 Bionic inside it. In case you rung some magical new apps, you will see how you take advantage of its power than most of what you will need.

Besides, experience in gaming is definitely outstanding, while the AI processor is improved to speed up AR as well as other machine-learning systems.

Battery

Unfortunately, both iPhone XS and XS Max mark a step backward when referring to battery performance. In term of battery life, the iPhone X needs 30 hours for full charging, but it only takes the iphone XS battery about 24 hours to be fully charged.

This means you will obviously have your phone charged at least once a day. On some days that you use your phone for multitasking including working on hundreds of emails, playing games and apps, using hours to listen to music on headphones or watching some Netflix movies, it must be soon exhausted.

In term of charging cable, iPhone XS owners need a USB-C to Lightning cable to have their XS fast-charged. However, neither it nor a compatible charger is included in the handset box.

Operating system of Iphone XS is IOS 12

In term of the operating system, Apple has already given the iPhone XS its iOS 12 out of the box. Because of the notch on the top of the screen, the phone has the same problems of status icons being lost.

Apple adds a noticeable banner on the lock screen when you activate Do Not Disturb to make it much easier to remember to activate it when you wake up.

Iphone xs camera review

The iPhone XS and the XS Max share the same camera system, which includes two of 12MP cameras on the rear. One camera has a wide-angle lens, while one features a 2x telephoto lens.
One of the most noticeable things is that Apple did improve “Smart HDR” function to make images with extremes of contrast such as those shot into the sun much more usable. The portrait mode has also been improved, now with the ability to adjust the level of background blur after capture.

This year’s iPhone will capture photos with better details, particularly when images are viewed at full resolution, and better low light performance.

Face ID

FaceID on the iPhone XS returns as Apple’s only biometric option. It works properly as it did on the iPhone X by identifying users without any fault, unveiling notifications and unlocking the iPhone.

However, problems come when you have sunglasses, so you need to use your fingerprint to unlock your iPhone.

Verdict

The new iPhone XS features the elegant design alongside forward-looking function. The phone is considered as one of the best smartphones to buy in the market at this time for those who want a mid-size screen but still keep qualified usability.
