The interview focused on two areas - the meaning of the abbreviation "XR" and the quality of the display. When asked about the name of this model, Schiller replied that Apple never chooses abbreviations that have some hidden meaning. The only exception was iPhone 3GS, where the letter "s" stood for "speed." But for Schiller himself, the endings of this year's iPhones have meaning. The letters R and S in it evoke the parallel of sports cars, which the vice president has Appvery popular. "I really like cars and other fast things The letters R and S denote sports cars which are very special to me" he replied with a smile.
Then the conversation turned to questions about the display, which has a resolution of "only" 1792×820 pixels. Its fineness is then the classic 326 PPI, which is the same value as the iPhone 4s from 2011. The display has become the target of criticism from many content creators on YouTube, who criticized the impossibility of displaying content in FullHD, which is the standard today even in the field of much cheaper smartphones. although resolution is not the only factor that determines screen quality. But Schiller rejects any criticism and claims that as soon as the eye does not recognize individual pixels, there is nothing to solve.

"The only way to judge a display is to pick up a smartphone."one and just look at the display. IPhone The XR has RETINA (retina) display, which means that the human eye is unable to distinguish individual pixels unless you press your face against the screen. Once you can't see the pixels, the numbers mean nothing." Schiller replied with complete calm. When asked if the display was the reason he had iPhone XR delayed in release, simply replied: "It's ready now."
iPhone The XR comes in black, white, yellow, red, blue, and coral variahere:

At the end of the interview, the vice president said that iPhone XrR does not target any specific customer segment. After experiences with iPhonem X is said to be in Applu believes that such a device is accessible to a wide market. As we mentioned above, iPhone The XR will go on sale on October 26th.
- Apple iPhone You can also buy XR from the Online Store Apppre-order at Alge, but it can also be purchased from MP whether iWantu
Ah, so that's it. iPhone X Rally Sport
That amused me :D
Well, with the brutal compression at YT, it doesn't matter even on a 29" monitor, whether it's 720p or 1080p, let alone on a 6" one...
so if it flaunts the pixel visibility of the display that was in the x-year old model, how does it justify the price? And if there is nothing to solve about recognizability, then there is no need to move the resolution in the top modes, at least then the endurance will increase
Why would you, as a manufacturer, discount when even at this price they are breaking sales records? Apple doesn't need every knee-jerk reaction waiting for cashback and who knows what other similar discount crap. Such customers then don't even pay for audio/video, cloud, application... A customer like that, on which you earn a few prizes, is a 💩, so it's over.oneSeriously understand and go enjoy the praises on some Android forum. This probably isn't the site for you.
Xr stands for "Extra retarded".
Exactly. It's for you
So I'm not surprised that there are so many demented people in the discussion who repeat exactly this nonsense when people from Applu. They say the XR has retina, which means you can't see the pixels😂 No, it just means they gave the display with below-average fineness this name. They say you have to press the phone to your face to see the individual pixels😂 did that clown try that? I have iPhone with a resolution of 401ppi and yet I can see that the diagonal line on the display is jagged and I can see it from a normal distance, so what is this idiot trying to say?
Then you probably have great eyes, because I have the same ppi (7 plus) and I can see the curves perfectly fine 😂 nestHello, I wish I could really see those pixels, or that it's not soft enough 😂
But I'm not advocating XR. I think they could have a standard of at least 1080p, especially when it's 2018. And detto, when the price tag is set at €800.
The XR could have been an Entry model between iPhone and the price tag of $599 or $649 would be very convincing for many people, and of course adequate for the equipment, because compared to the XS it is deprived of quite a few things.
I guess I have, when I look at the battery indicator at the top right at this % sign, I can just see from a normal distance that it's rough, that it's made up of "squares", the same thing can be seen with the letters, especially the small ones, but that doesn't matter, it's quite fine with the plus-sized iPhones, but it's noticeably worse with the small ones. They should just put fullhd+ there and it would be fine. Who goes on small iPhonech from the beginning, they won't notice anything, but anyone who switches from a more subtle display will realize that it's strange.
David: even if it was worth 2k, you wouldn't buy it, so I don't see what bothers you so much
And how the hell did you come up with that? On the contrary, I prefer an LCD display, Amoled is no longer allowed in my phone, that's why this deliberate testing quite annoys me when it's the only new phone with an LCD.
Karel: You already ordered it :-)
I would really be very interested in the alleged tech problems in the production of LCDs with cutouts.
Isn't it also "a little" strange to you that other manufacturers have already been deploying such displays with a higher resolution for a long time? ;)
Honestly, it just looks like a classic marketing trick to avoid cannibalizing the more expensive Xs and especially the Xs right at the start, when it's most important in terms of sales volume. Max, which, like it or not, is now actually happening.
It's interesting that I can tell the difference between FHD and QHD with my eyes. Either I have above average eyesight, which is difficult when I can no longer be a train driver, or you are Apple he makes up nonsense so he doesn't have to pay for expensive panels :)
It wouldn't even be more expensive, I don't see why Apple determined the ppi first and made the resolution accordingly.
If there is no point in increasing the number of pixels, then there is no point in developing new chips, because no one will know the difference between A10, A11, …. 🤦♂️ Good luck using the electronic cave 🙃🙃🙃
