Apple has just completed their September 12 event and conclusion from the event is that there won’t be an iPhone 9 but instead Apple will be introducing the iPhone XR. This new iPhone XR is one of three new iPhones, following the iPhone XS and XS Max.
Seems like this release is realign with the rumour that has been circulated on the internet where there are 3 models to be release. Guess Apple is no longer as secretive as they used to be. Still remember the old days that nothing is leaked till the announcement date.
Anyway, for pricing wise, out of the 3, iPhone XR is the least expensive of the new models which costs $749 for 64GB of storage, with 128GB selling for $799, and the 256GB edition retailing for $899.
Here are the prices of the model to be release.
- Phone XR 6.1-inch 1792×828 LCD Liquid Retina display: 64GB/128GB/256GB from US$749
- iPhone XS 5.8-inch 2436×1125 OLED Super Retina display: 64GB/256GB/512GB from US$999
- iPhone XS Max 6.5-inch 2688×1242 OLED Super Retina display: 64GB/256GB/512GB from US$1099
Do take note that the prices are for US market and it is expect to be slightly different here in Malaysia due to exchange rates
