iPhone XS 256 GB unlocked smartphone

The Apple iPhone XS in silver ships new and fully unlocked for GSM and CDMA networks. It carries 256 GB of internal storage and 4 GB of RAM behind a 5.8 inch Super Retina OLED display at 1125 by 2436 pixels. Face ID, a hexa-core A12 Bionic processor and iOS 12 complete the core experience.

Best for single-SIM users who want dual rear cameras

Buyers needing a single Nano-SIM handset with 2x optical zoom, dual-pixel PDAF and optical stabilisation on both 12 MP lenses will find the spec sheet a match. Shoppers who require expandable storage, a second physical SIM slot or a larger 6.5 inch screen should look at a different device.

256 GB fixed storage decides the fit

The phone offers 256 GB of non-expandable capacity with no microSD slot. If that volume covers apps, photos and local media the iPhone XS works; if the workflow demands more onboard space or removable cards the storage ceiling makes this model unsuitable.
