iPhone XR: Australian Pricing, Specs And Release Date

Along with the iPhone Xs and and Xs Max, Apple just announced a more budget-friendly 2018 device — the iPhone XR. Here’s how much it’s going to cost you in Australia, and when you can get it.

Here are the key specs you can expect from the XR:

  • iOS 12 OS
  • A12 Bionic chip CPU
  • 6.1-inch all-screen LCD Multi‑Touch display with IPS technologyy
  • 1792 x 828 pixel resolution at 326 ppi
  • 3GB RAM
  • 64GB/128GB/256GB storage
  • 12MP rear and 7MP front cameras
  • 4K video recording
  • Face ID
  • Battery lasts 1.5 hours longer than iPhone 8 Plus (working on getting the mAh at the time of writing)
  • 150.9 mm x 75.7 mm x 8.3 mm, 194g
  • Black, white, blue, yellow and coral colour options

Despite being cheaper, you still wouldn’t call this a budget phone by a long shot. The 64GB comes in at $1,229, the 128GB at $1,299 and the 256GB at $1,479.

The iPhone XR will be available for pre-order from October 19 and will ship on October 26.
