And therefore, I think Apple really needs to improve the camera to be at least on par with the rest.
The Xs camera is on par with the rest. The reviews I've seen have been pretty split on which camera is 'the best,' but after reading several, my take is that no one can complain about the camera in the Xs or the Pixel or the Galaxy S10.
I don't know what these people evaluate on but some of the best photos I have seen recently came from the new Huawei's!
Nevertheless I think Xr is the best iPhone Apple has made. Battery is just great, so is the screen, and the price is correct!
I was expecting the second lens on the 10S MAXTREME to be awesome but in practice I never touch it. IMO they should just leave it out of the XR series and drive the price down, but who cares what armchair pundits think…
1080 (unobstructed by notch) would clinch it. Fastasleep - The reason you would want native 1080 resolution is because it’s a very common video resolution standard. If you watch a 1080 video (movie, YouTube, TV broadcast stream) on a phone with less than 1080 capability, it will scale or crop it - both are not desirable and sacrifice quality. Scaling uses more CPU cycles and power. Cropping it will cause a loss of video content.
It doesn't get cropped. While it does get downscaled slightly, you're not going to notice any quality degradation on a 5" screen. It's literally a non-issue.
