Apple on Wednesday, September 12 announced three new iPhones for 2018 generation with a huge price tag. The base model iPhone XR with 6.1-inch LCD panel price starts from $749 which isn’t affordable at all. While the iPhone XS and iPhone XS Max sports 5.8-inch and 6.5-inch OLED display. All the three iPhones support dual-SIM (eSIM) and dual standby. Last year Apple debuted a most innovative smartphone called iPhone X with a notch display and so many other features that are still trending and other companies want to do the same. But this year the 2018 iPhone lineup isn’t that innovative or great in terms of price point.
