Review of Apple iPhone XS

The iPhone XS, like any new smartphone from a leading manufacturer in the technology industry, offers a range of better features. These are immediately noticeable - a new SoC complemented by a machine learning system, more RAM, maximum flash memory up to 512 GB, and also an increased degree of protection against water - IP68. In practice, this means that the smartphone will not perish when immersed in fresh water at a depth of up to two meters for a maximum of 30 minutes.
