I've been using iPhones since the 3GS. The XR is the first that I've felt like writing a review for. I went from an 8 Plus 256GB to an XR 128GB. Considering how expensive iPhones have gotten over the years, the XR is one of the better values.

It's clear that iPhone XR isn't the best iPhone. It's not even the best phone you can buy for £749, and it's certainly doesn't represent the best value in the smartphone industry.

Cheaper than the iPhone Xs; Outstanding camera; Industry leading mobile performance

No optical zoom; Better battery life but still not amazing

Having had an iPhone 5s for over 4 years the performance had deteriorated somewhat so when Very offered a ￡100 discount on a new XR model I decided to change it. All I can say is I had forgotten how good an iPhone could be so much quicker and smoother than the old model and once you get used to the...

Such a breeze to set up just put you old iPhone next to it follow the prompts and it's done. Great features easy to use and battery life is fantastic

The iPhone XR might not be as cutting-edge as the iPhone XS, but it strikes a perfect balance between affordability and luxury without sacrificing the...

Impressive design that adds just enough personality; Crazy fast with incredible battery life; Single camera does well to handle the work of two

Bezels are very thick; Portrait mode limited to people

We may never know what the R in the iPhone XR actually means-Apple VP Phil Schiller himself said that the R doesn't really mean much to Apple. But I have my own guess: reboot. Before the release of the iPhone X last year, the iPhone 8 was in need of a redesign.

Last year, Apple introduced a new design of iPhone that it said would be the template for all future models. In 2018, that was backed up not just by the introduction of the iPhone XS, which was an update of the existing iPhone X, but also the iPhone XR, which is a new cheaper model using the same...

Supremely slick and powerful; Very strong camera; Great battery life; Excellent build quality

Less flexible camera system than the XS; Can get a better screen for the money; Lack of 3D Touch is weird

Like me, the vast majority of people coming to the iPhone XR will be leaving the home button behind. This time last year I didn't feel ready to go full-screen at the expense of trusty Touch ID, despite the promise of Animoji, face recognition and selfie portraits.

I reserved the phone over the net, I picked it up the next day which only took a few minutes because it was ready and waiting for me. When I got home I put it on charge for a few hours, put the SIM card went through the set up procedure , connected it to my MAC computer and downloaded all my...

Apple's iPhone XR ticks all the boxes in terms of design, quality and performance and manages to offer amazing camera quality through a single lens. And that comes down to the advantage Apple has over every other smartphone manufacturer – their own software working with their own hardware.

Cool colourful design; Excellent single lens camera; Sharp bright display; Powerful processor

No 3D Touch; Would be nice to have dual lens camera
