Personally speaking, the iPhone XR was my favorite of the three iPhones released last year. It’s bigger than the too-small (for me at least) iPhone XS, and didn’t require the hand contortion that the XS Max did. It came in some fun colors. It had the best battery life of any iPhone I tested in 2018. It might not have been the most exciting device Apple has ever released, but it took most of what was great about its more powerful cousins and made it available to more people. What’s not to like?
The work that Apple started with the XR continues in the new iPhone 11, which I’ve just spent a little time with. I find myself drawn to the 11 for the same reason that I liked the XR so much: You’ll get serious power at an even more serious discount. Remember: The standard iPhone 11 will set you back $700, down from the $750 that the iPhone XR debuted at last year.
