Apple iPhone XR Announced
Phill Schiller claims that even with a bigger screen size, the iPhone XR will be easier to use than the iPhone 8 Plus, which measures at 5.5-inch.
The notch and the screen-to-body ratio ensures that the dimensions are more than manageable. It also is powered by the A12 processor but only a single camera sensor at the back on the iPhone XR.
