And in the years that followed, we stood in awe as Apple churned out increasingly better models with equally improved designs. Some of us even camped out and lined up during launch dates! This steady progress in tech is one of the many reasons it can be hard to know which iPhone is the best to purchase &#8212; one that fits your budget and meets your needs. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But worry not, we are here to help you avoid analysis paralysis.

Coming in at 157.5 x 77.4 x 7.7mm and a 6.5-inch OLED screen size, the iPhone XS Max is truly a sight to behold and a joy to use. On top of the large screen with HDR10 support, this iPhone\u2019s best features include the impressive 12MP back camera, IP68 waterproofing, 3D touch, and the fastest processor with new A12 Bionic chip. The XS Max comes with Face ID and wireless charging, too. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><b>The iPhone XS Max is for you if:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> You are passionate about gaming and multimedia use. With its large screen and edge-to-edge OLED screen, playing games and taking photos is all sorts of fun using the iPhone XS Max. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><b>You might not like the iPhone XS Max if: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You don\u2019t want to spend a lot on a smartphone or you don\u2019t like to use mobile phones that are big, bordering on tablet size.<\/span><br>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-iphone-xs\"><b> iPhone XS<\/b><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><span data-src=\"https:\/\/www.hellotech.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/iphone-xs-select-2018-group-1.jpeg\" rel=\"lightbox\" data-fancybox><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hellotech.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/iphone-xs-select-2018-group-1.jpeg\" alt=\"iphone sx best iphone\" class=\"wp-image-12756\" width=\"440\" height=\"441\"\/><\/span><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><br><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The iPhone XS is pretty much the XS Max but in a more compact package. For those who find the previous model clunky but love the all the functionality, the powerful iPhone XS might be perfect for you. The iPhone XS measures 143.6 x 70.9 x 7.7mm and comes with a 5.8-inch OLED screen. It weighs only 174g, making it safe and efficient for one-hand operation. Just like its bigger brother in the X series, however, it comes with Smart HDR-capable 12MP rear camera, a fast A12 Bionic chip, Face ID, wireless charging, and many other terrific features. It&#8217;s smaller size doesn&#8217;t mean a much smaller price tag, coming in just $100 less than the XS Max.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><b>The iPhone XS is for you if: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You like the powerful features of the XS Max but you want them in a smaller package. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><b>You might not like the iPhone XS if: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your smartphone budget is not that extravagant. <\/span><br>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\" start=\"3\"><li><b> iPhone XR<\/b><\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><span data-src=\"https:\/\/www.hellotech.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/iphone-xr-select-2019-family-e1558038330410.jpeg\" rel=\"lightbox\" data-fancybox><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"440\" height=\"289\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hellotech.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/iphone-xr-select-2019-family-e1558038330410.jpeg\" alt=\"Which iPhone is the Best: A Buying Guide for 2019\" class=\"wp-image-12753\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.hellotech.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/iphone-xr-select-2019-family-e1558038330410.jpeg 440w, https:\/\/www.hellotech.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/iphone-xr-select-2019-family-e1558038330410-300x197.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.hellotech.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/iphone-xr-select-2019-family-e1558038330410-210x138.jpeg 210w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 440px) 100vw, 440px\" \/><\/span><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Wondering which iPhone is the best value for the buck? In the line of Apple&#8217;s latest iPhone releases, the answer is definitely the iPhone XR. The iPhone XR is a little bit bigger than the XS but it does come with a 6.1 screen. While it doesn\u2019t come with the most impressive features of either the XS or the XS Max, it still lets you do a wide range of cool things. All for a much cheaper price tag. The iPhone XR comes with a fast A12 Bionic chipset, a 12MP dual lens rear camera, Smart HDR, Face ID, wireless charging, and other key features from the iPhone X series. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><b>The iPhone XR is for you if: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You want a model from the X range that offers the best bang for your buck. This is also perfect for you if you want great battery life and fun options when it comes to colors. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><b>You might not like the iPhone XR if: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">An LCD screen doesn\u2019t fit your smartphone screen standards.

And even though production has already been discontinued, you can still buy this model from major retailers and carriers. If you come across a 256 GB unit that is tagged lower than $900, consider making it your iPhone of choice. Otherwise, the XR is probably a better way to go, with mainly the same features and at a lower price point.&nbsp; The iPhone X is lighter than the XR, but doesn&#8217;t offer any other impressive features absent from the newer, XR model.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><b>The iPhone X is for you if: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You want an iPhone from the X series that you can get for a lot cheaper than the newer models and you want it to be light. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><b>You might not like the iPhone X if: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You want a much newer model that is not as expensive.

But for others, considering the model\u2019s great features, it could very well answer the pervasive \u201cWhat is the best iPhone\u201d question. The iPhone 8 Plus is a lot cheaper than the X range, of course. But this doesn\u2019t mean that it\u2019s lacking in awesome features. In fact, this iPhone model comes with a fairly decent A11 Bionic chipset, a 5.5-inch screen, and dual lens 12MP rear camera. The front-facing camera is 7MP and makes for lovely selfies. It comes with wireless charging and the battery life is quite impressive, too, better than any iPhone model except for the XR. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><b>The iPhone 8 Plus is for you if:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> You just can\u2019t let go of the classic iPhone design with the home screen button. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><b>You might not like the iPhone 8 Plus if: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You want an OLED screen, HDR support, or the Face ID features of more advanced models. <\/span><br>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-iphone-8\"><b> iPhone 8 <\/b><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><span data-src=\"https:\/\/www.hellotech.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/photo-1478131462274-b5d47f881573.jpeg\" rel=\"lightbox\" data-fancybox><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hellotech.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/05\/photo-1478131462274-b5d47f881573.jpeg\" alt=\"iphone 8 best iphone\" class=\"wp-image-12755\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\"\/><\/span><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><br><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The iPhone 8 boasts the classic 4.7-inch screen, the size that longtime iPhone users have come to know and love.
