List of iPhone XS Model Numbers and Differences

This is the list of iPhone XS Model Numbers with all the differences between the models explained. If you are planning on picking up an iPhone XS, you can take a look at the list below to check which model suits you.

iPhone XS

Apple launched the new iPhones in September this year. The new iPhones include the iPhone XS, which is the successor to last year’s iPhone X. There is the iPhone XR which is Apple’s cheap iPhone for this year and then there is the most powerful iPhone that goes by the name iPhone XS Max.

The iPhone XS and the iPhone XS Max both are premium iPhones for this year. They share a lot of similarities. The difference is in the size of the smartphones. Rest is all the same. The iPhone XS comes with a 5.8-inch Super AMOLED screen on the front. This screen has the infamous notch that you cannot even hide. The iPhone XS follows the design language of the iPhone X. It is not going to be possible for you to spot a difference between the iPhone X and the iPhone XS unless you come across the internals of the new iPhone.

Inside the iPhone XS, Apple has used its latest and greatest A12 Bionic CPU. The A12 Bionic CPU is built through a 7nm process and this happens to be the world’s first 7nm processor as well. The A12 gets the support of Apple’s latest GPU and the Neural Engine. This new chipset has already grabbed the top spot on almost all the benchmark tools that are available to date.

iPhone XS has a RAM of 4GB inside and it has the internal storage starting from 64GB which goes up to 512GB. It has a 2658 mAh battery. There is no headphone jack as usual. The iPhone XS has a dual camera system at the back having a 12MP wide lens and 12MP telephoto lens. On the front, it has a 7MP camera. What makes this phone interesting is the Neural Engine that takes photography to a whole new level. So despite the fact that this phone is exactly as same as the iPhone X, it does come with worthy internals. Overall, the iPhone XS is a good phone to own, but the price tag is not that easy to afford.

iPhone XS Model Numbers

So you are planning to upgrade to the iPhone XS, but you don’t know which variant you should go with? Well, that’s not a problem at all. To make sure that your new phone works fine with the networks in your country/region, you need to do a little research work to get your hands on the iPhone XS that matches the radio frequencies of the operators operating in your area. There is a huge number of iPhone XS Model variants. All the iPhone XS come with the different model numbers and different frequencies. This is done in order to ensure that no service interruption happens at the consumer’s end.

I have made this table below shows all the iPhone XS Model Numbers and differences. I have also explained which iPhone XS is designed for which region. Go through the list and decide it for yourself.
