Review on (Renewed) Apple iPhone XS, US Version, 64GB, Space Gray - Unlocked: Best Deals and Quality Assurance by Hayden Xin ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

The price/quality ratio is great, I will buy again.

For very some time, I had my doubts because I couldn't make heads or tails of what was going on with the XS model. Why was it pulled from shelves so rapidly, and why did its price drop twice as much in a year on the black market? Although at first the price difference was substantial, it is now essentially identical to that of the XR. That is to say, concerns are raised that there may be a problem with the device itself. Obviously, it's too soon for me to give a final conclusion based on the results of several days of use, but. Nothing seems to be confirmed by the internet readings that have given me the most pause for uncertainty (yet). According to what I've read, there's a lot of marriage (even to the point of dust behind the glass), bad communication, weak network holding, weak charging, and something that turns the screen yellow. In a nutshell, it's all a load of hogwash. Looks and feels like an Apple product should, great connectivity, and true-to-life sound (if you don't like warm tones, turn it off or use the true-tone slider). The battery is definitely not a Xiaomi, but after being off from power for 38 hours, it's back up to 51%. You know, this is a new device, and in the first days the hand reaches for it. I am not a maniac, and I do not sit on the phone for 12 hours a day (without urgent need). Hence, it seems to reason that I would like to experiment and make alterations. In most cases, discharging to 0% for three days may be sufficient if the battery discharge is consistent. Although I have not given this camera a thorough workout just yet (the weather is not cooperating), I have taken a number of practice shots. In my opinion, the price is more than justified. I recommend checking out Apple's XS camera features page because it has all the information you need in a concise and understandable format.

Pros
  • From first glance, Apple's products appear to be flawless. In addition, the battery life will be sufficient if you are an adult and use the phone for appropriate household, business, and entertainment functions.
Cons
  • The lack of transparency about the phone's discontinuation and the reasons behind it is extremely annoying. The gadget is not on show, so you can't try it out before you buy it (although it is on sale). Whether or not there is a stone in the Apple garden is a mystery to me.
