The New Flagship I Phones Feature Dual Sim , A12 Bionic Chip And Advanced Camera .
5.8-inch iphone XS & 6.5-inch iphone XS max
Retiring the last year’s iPhone X (not in India yet), Apple has announced two new successors — 5.8-inch iPhone XS and 6.5-inch iPhone XS Max — with the latter having the biggest screen on an iPhone ever. They also support dual SIM and are IP68 certified (they can withstand up to two metres water for 30 minutes). Apple has also replaced the ‘Plus’ on the bigger variant with ‘Max’. Unlike the previous years, when there used to be different cameras for the Plus and the regular variant, both iPhone XS and XS Max feature a 12-megapixel dual camera system with dual optical image stabilisation with 2x optical zoom, apart from a new two times faster sensor. New depth control settings allow users to dynamically adjust the depth of field in the Photos app both in realtime preview and post-capture to create portraits. Portrait mode with depth control is also available on the TrueDepth camera for selfies.
The A12 Bionic chipset onboard is a seven-nanometre chip that Apple claims will deliver industry-leading performance in a more power-efficient design. This is a six-core fusion architecture with two performance cores that are up to 15 per cent faster, four efficiency cores that are up to 50 per cent more efficient and a four-core GPU that is up to 50 per cent faster.
