The models share a lot of the features that their\u00a0discontinued predecessor first introduced to the iPhone line, like Face ID and Portrait Mode, but now they\u2019ve been fine-tuned and improved. One of the biggest upgrades is the switch to Apple\u2019s new A12 Bionic processor, which is said to be 15 percent faster than the A11. It\u2019s also notable that these features are now available in the form of a 6.5-inch XS Max, which is the largest iPhone ever.<\/p>\n<p id=\"r4B7KD\">One of the highlighted demonstrations onstage today was the ability to manually adjust the depth of field after taking photos in Portrait Mode. Despite Apple\u2019s claims that \u201cthis has not been possible with any kind of camera,\u201d it\u2019s actually a feature that\u2019s been available on Android phones like Huawei and Nokia for a few years. Not to mention, the refocusing technology was first pioneered by the\u00a0now-defunct light-field camera company Lytro\u00a0in 2012.<\/p>\n<p id=\"4VEIS0\">So we can take all of Apple\u2019s big keynote claims with a grain of salt, but if we\u2019re looking at technical specifications, how do the new iPhones stack up against the top Android phones? We compared their specs to the Samsung Galaxy S9, S9 Plus, Galaxy Note 9, Google Pixel 2, and Pixel 2 XL.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center\">IPHONE XS AND XS MAX SPEC COMPARISON:<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-3679 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/athis-consulting.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/comparatif.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"595\" height=\"841\" srcset=\"https:\/\/athis-technologies.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/comparatif.png 595w, https:\/\/athis-technologies.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/comparatif-212x300.png 212w, https:\/\/athis-technologies.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/comparatif-297x420.png 297w, https:\/\/athis-technologies.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/09\/comparatif-64x90.png 64w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 595px) 100vw, 595px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Apple unveiled the newest generation of its flagship iPhones today,\u00a0the iPhone XS and iPhone XS Max.
