About iPhone Xs contracts UK
In terms of the price, the good (ish) news is that it hasn't risen
over the previous year’s incredibly expensive iPhone X, with the 64GB iPhone XS price coming in at £999 at launch.
The 256GB iPhone XS price is $1,149 / £1,149 / AU$1,879, and the 512GB iPhone XS price is $1,349 / £1,349 / AU$2,199. Usually in this section we'd talk about all the new features that the
phone brings – but in this case there really aren't that many, with
Apple resolutely sticking to the strategy of launching an 'S' phone with
little changed other than speed improvements and a few other
performance bumps.
That's not to say it isn't impressive, and
useful, new hardware in the iPhone XS, but most of the benefits won't be
instantly discernible to the average user. One change that is
easy to spot is the new color: the gold variant is more mocha than
anything else, with a touch of copper in the shade, and brings another
option in addition to the Space Gray and silver options.
We can
only surmise that this was possible because the chassis of the iPhone XS
is so similar to that of the iPhone X, so it wasn't expensive or
time-consuming to alter the process to add in a new hue.
The
good news is you may be able to find the phone a little cheaper from
such stores though. In the UK, our guide will help you find the best iPhone XS deals on contract.
It's
worth noting however that the newer iPhone 11 starts at just starts at
$699 / £729 / AU$1,199. This however is more a successor to the iPhone
XR than the iPhone XS, so isn't something you'd necessarily want to
upgrade to. For a clear upgrade from the XS you're looking at the iPhone
11 Pro, which starts at £1,049.
