You can even see the tip of the notch intruding on the notification panel We’ve covered the biggest Android 9 Pie features in a separate piece, so I won’t go deep into them here. However a couple do deserve a mention. I’m a big fan of the Digital Wellbeing features; being able to set timers on social-media apps and limit how much time I spend scrolling through Instagram is a great addition. I also really like how you can set the screen to black and white after, say, 11pm.
The gesture navigation controls are here in full force and it seems like, currently, you can’t go back to the old ‘menu, home and overview’ layout. Instead you’ve got a pill-shaped home button that bring up your apps with a swipe and a ‘back’ button that only appears when it’s needed. I do like this gesture-based navigation, but it’s nowhere near as intuitive as the iPhone XS. Too many times I found myself needing two distinct swipes to reach my apps and it’s a pain to quickly jump back to previously used apps. The idea is great, but the way it works needs some tweaking.

ONDECEMBER 4 "IPHONE XS REVIEW: A SOLID UPGRADE TO A GREAT PHONE" iPhone XS review: A solid upgrade to a great phone What is the iPhone XS? Picking a iPhone in 2018 is hard. There’s the iPhone XR at £749/$749 and then the two models of the iPhone XS. The regular iPhone XS, that’s the one we’re reviewing here, and then the larger iPhone XS Max. The iPhone XS starts at £999/$999 (£1099/$1099 for the Max) and has a better screen, an extra camera and slightly more ‘premium’ design when compared to the iPhone XR. It’s a very iterative update for Apple, but that’s hardly a surprise considering how much of a jump the iPhone X was. Is this phone good enough to force people against picking up an Android device like the Samsung Galaxy S9, OnePlus 6T or Google Pixel 3? iPhone XS – Design If you’ve seen the iPhone X then the iPhone XS steps in as a dead ringer. Last year the X showcased a bold design compared to iPhones of old. Gone was the aluminium frame of its predecessors, replaced with a polished stainless steel alternative.
The screen now reached the fringes of the phone’s front and a glass back facilitated the phone’s wireless charging feature.

Some might have complained that the polished steel and glass form could have been made less slippery between generations but this is an issue I only really pin on this year’s larger iPhone XS Max. The XS looks undeniably premium, sits comfortably in the hand thanks to the pillowed glass and rounded metal frame, and can still be considered one of the best-looking smartphones out there. It’s fractionally heavier than its predecessor and just as with every glass-backed handset, holds onto fingerprints like nobody’s business, but this didn’t come as a shock to me and will only bother those who don’t plan on sticking it in a case.

Related: Best iPhone XS cases If you do plan on rocking the phone naked, firstly, you’re a braver soul than I, and secondly you’ll appreciate the option of the gold colour, which extends to the iPhone XS Max too. Alongside the existing silver and Space Grey options from last year this finish sports a shiny gold frame and a flat coloured back that I’d say is closer to a ‘warm peach’ than actual gold. It’s not to my taste but I can certainly see it being popular. A small but nonetheless important upgrade is the iPhone XS’s IP68-certification (up from IP67 on last year’s iPhones). This means better protection against dust ingress and the phone is now happy in up to two metres of water for up to 30 minutes without springing a leak.
