the 10R is one of the best iPhones I've ever owned. It has awesome battery life, very nice sound and it's fast and snappy. Getting used to the lack of home button and gestures is simple and easy once you've spent a few minutes with the phone. I honestly think this is the best iPhone Apple has ever made for both stability and reliability.

What specifically do you need to know? The XR does not have a home button any more, but it still has the  volume up/down button and the side button on the opposite side.

Because of no home button it of course also does not have Touch Id, but uses Face Id for unlocking the phone (if you set it up) and the PIN is still required when the phone is rebooted or if Face Id fails a number of times.

If you get a new XR and want to start Voiceover to set it up you have to press that side button 3 times quickly just like you would have pressed the home button 3 times quickly on the phones which had one.

The rest is pretty much the same except that you should probably either get somebody to show you the gestures you need to learn to replace the home button, e.g. getting out of an app back to the home screen, bringing up the app switcher etc. or check Applevis for Podcasts about this.

Best regards,
