  • and a camera that's mostly as good as the iPhone XS
Cons:

Apple iPhone XR review: The iPhone for everyone else

The Apple iPhone XR is the third iPhone to be launched this year, after the iPhone XS and XS Max.

  • Cool color options
  • Long battery life
  • Loud stereo speakers
  • Wireless charging support
