Which one is best for you?
There’s no question that both iPhone 7 Plus and iPhone XS have a lot going for them.
iPhone 7 Plus has a generous 5.5-inch screen, a dual lens camera that can zoom in without loss of quality and more. Plus, for those that prefer it, there’s a dedicated home button, too.
Fast forward two years, iPhone XS boasts significant changes in design, hardware and capabilities. The screen is noticeably larger (even though it’s not the Plus model) yet the body is smaller. This is thanks to the new edge-to-edge OLED display taking up a larger part of the phone’s front. The TrueDepth front camera offers a broad range of features, such as letting you share your feelings by mapping your expression onto 3D Animoji and more.
Whichever you choose, you’ll be guaranteed to love it. And if you’re upgrading to iPhone XS from iPhone 7 Plus, there’s much to discover and enjoy.
