The XS is slightly smaller and lighter then the XR. 5.8 inch display versus 6.1 inch and 177 grams as compared to 194 grams.

Thanks Richard.  That is what I also remember from listening to the apple event.  I could only remember three differences between the XS and the XR.  XS has 3D touch and the XR does not.  XS has dual camera and the XR has a single camera. The XS has an olade display and the XR has a traditional liquid LCD display.  I thought both models have stereo recording, although not important for me.  They both have dual sim, one electronic and one physical.  The model available in China will have two physical sims.

To be clear, below is the XR specs for recording and Sim card.

This is from the Apple specifications.

Video formats recorded: HEVC and H.264

Stereo recording

SIM Card |

Dual SIM (nano-SIM and eSIM) 11

iPhone XR is not compatible with existing micro-SIM cards.

The specs of the XR do state that stereo recording is available, as well as the better stereo sound. I myself can't wait to hear the fruits of all that, in stereo videos and recordings all over the Internet. I'd have to look around for the DualSim stuff though.,

    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,

        None at all. So yes, get the XR.

            I’m not sure I qualify as tech savvy. But I see absolutely
            no reason to spend more money for the XS or even X max.
            Even with the advantage of the OLED display, which should
            give better battery life, according to apples on specs,
            the EXR wins in that category. So I just can’t see any
            reason, if you want a new phone this year and don’t
            absolutely want the home button, why should you spend
            anymore than you have to? I think the XR with 128 gigs is
            the sweet spot.

                Hello folks,

                This is a question for the tech savvy iPhone users. 
                What are the advantages of buying iPhone XS over
                iPhone XR for a totally blind user?  Clearly iPhone XS
                has 3D touch and the XR does not.  The XS has dual
                camera, and the XR has a single camera, and the
                display is different.  How important these differences
                in practical terms to justify spending 250 dollars
                more on the XS if you are a totally blind person?

                Cheers,

                Cris
