Hello,

Jonathan Mosen seemed to think that only the S products can record in stereo. 
If that's true and you're a podcaster, that would be something to consider. 
Also if you travel a lot, the dual SiM capabilities of the S phones might be 
helpful. I'm pretty sure that feature isn't on the R phones. I would suggest 
checking the specs on the Apple website to be sure, though.

Best,
Anna
