QUOTE(ben3003 @ Sep 14 2018, 11:27 AM) LOL bro, ppl say human eyes can only detect 60fps and anything above is bullshit. Try watch a 120hz 120fps, and see u feel the diff or not. Dont be delusional, please. When u put a higher ppi phone beside a lower ppi phone, definitely u can see the diff. okay u are from iphone 6 so u wont feel much diff because iphone 6 is same ppi. Once u already pampered ur eyes with better stuff, u will definitely see the diff. understand what you've said, but i won't pamper myself just to have a good display by breaking my piggy bag. If i would've gone for best display, i wont post here already  post in Xs instead

QUOTE(attw @ Sep 13 2018, 03:04 PM) This is meant to be a cheaper option, if you need OLED can go for the Xs or Xs Max QUOTE(iStand_store @ Sep 13 2018, 03:45 PM) lol with this price it cant be using the oled, its still a good option for those ppl who still prefer an enhanced LCD display, oled display may be vivid but your eyes will get fatigue n dry kinda quick, at least for me. LCD is okay,but with that resolution on 6 inch? Come on apple,it's almost 2019 already

QUOTE(westlife @ Sep 14 2018, 11:22 AM) price drops for older models yes. but it is not actually worthwhile to buy iphone 7 or 8 now comparing to XR. the price difference vs the difference in hardware - A12 etc. it is good enough to justify for buying XR instead. no to mention XR has exact iphone X look and iphone 8 plus back.  , but my real meaning is for future purchase (my preference only) hehe. Older model but hey still can get the jobs done and the xtra bucks can be spend on others items

QUOTE(sonypshomer @ Sep 14 2018, 07:56 AM) That's surprising. What about liquid retina? Lol just a fancy name for LCD. Although iPhone's LCD is one of the best in the market.

Erm not really, Apple has been using that name for ages now since iPhone 4s if im not mistaken. Just a name for their displays, doesnt mean its high res.

QUOTE(ben3003 @ Sep 14 2018, 11:25 AM) this phone size is not 5inch like iphone 6, it is a whooping 6.1inch. so definitely u gonna see some pixels, believe me. The pixel per inch(ppi) is same, means the XR's 326ppi pixel size is same with ip6/7/8's 326ppi no matter screen size or resolution different. Some said pentile 1080p amoled more or less looks like this ppi. ps I'm not saying selling 720p at rm3k is right.

QUOTE(shinchan^^ @ Sep 14 2018, 10:24 AM) rather get a p 20 pro and yet got some changes If you are not an avid photographer: 1.You should compare the performance between a12 and kirin 970 first prior making your purchase. 2.IOS support lasts 5-6 years whereas Android manufacturer support ceases after 3 years.

CNN: This is how much money Apple makes on iPhones https://cnn.it/2CUpE61 Msian prices are crazy more expensive vs US. Yet we see locals are willing to pay for it. Their reasons - proven eco system, smoothness , speed , app stability etc. Personally I will not pay more than rm4k for a phone even for such reasons. I had used all the IP till ip8+ ( except 5s) and yet remain unconvinced IP is more superior to other high end Androids. The only exception s it's better battery life but than isn't significantly better. This time I will go for the XR model and as usual will just be my secondary phone. My main attraction to it is solely it's 6.1 " display size

During keynote they are only focussing on ip6 instead of 5s. means the upgrade can be good or can be bad. similiar to ipad mini on ios 9 ip4 on ios 7 ip3gs on ios 4 this is what i can recall though

I feel apple is making things right this time.
