■The Verge's Nilay Patel:
The display on the iPhone XR is… fine. It's fine! It has lower resolution and pixel density than the OLEDs in new flagship phones like the iPhone XS, Galaxy S9, and Pixel 3, but it's the same 326 pixels per inch as Apple's previous non-Plus LCD iPhones. Anyone coming to this phone from any iPhone save the iPhone X will not notice a huge discrepancy in resolution.
這個螢幕很可以，雖然解析沒 OLED 機型好，
但一樣是每吋 326p 的蘋果螢幕，
從舊款 iPhone 換上來的使用者不會有太大差距感。

■Matthew Panzarino writing for TechCrunch:
While the screen is one of the best LCDs I’ve ever seen, it's not as good as the other models. Specifically, I believe that the OLED's ability to display true black and display deeper color (especially in images that are taken on the new XR cameras in HDR) set it apart easily.
That said, I have a massive advantage in that I am able to hold the screens side by side to compare images. Simply put, if you don't run them next to one another, this is a great screen.
雖然這是我看過最好的 LCD 螢幕手機，但 OLED
表現純黑跟深色還是比較優，
尤其是用新相機技術拍出來的照片，就能明顯看出差別。
但只要兩種手機不要擺一起比，絕對妥妥的。

■Engadget's Chris Velazco:
The XR's single camera is a very good one: It's the exact same 12-megapixel wide-angle camera Apple uses in the XS and XS Max, and it still produces some lovely photos. You'll find a lot of detail and some excellent colors in the resulting stills, and it's been surprisingly handy in low-light thanks to its f/1.8 aperture and sensor with deeper tranches between those pixels.
這款鏡頭跟 XS 機型的相同，
顏色跟低光源表現一樣優秀。

■Wired's Lauren Goode:
Since the iPhone XR only has a single-lens rear camera (it has a wide-angle lens, but not a telephoto lens), it doesn't capture as much depth information as the dual-lens camera on the iPhone XS .
This means that when you swipe to Portrait mode in the Camera app, the background-softening effect will only work if you're snapping a picture of a person, since Apple has decided to train the camera's machine learning on human shapes. Try to snap a Portrait photo of your food, or your cat, or a pumpkin (because it's pumpkin season) and "No person detected" will appear at the top of the photo frame. The iPhone XR also only has three lighting options in Portrait mode, versus five on the iPhone
XS.
因為 XR 沒有遠鏡頭，所以遠部細節不如雙鏡頭機型。
所以在人像模式中只能對人有作用，既然蘋果在訓練手機辨別人體，
試著用人像模式去照你的食物、貓、或南瓜，手機會顯示沒偵測到人物，
也不像 XS 有 5 種燈光可以選擇，XR 只有 3 種。
Haptic Touch 評價：

■iMore's Rene Ritchie:
When and where it works, it feels enough like 3D Touch that I sometimes find myself forgetting it's not 3D Touch. Until I try to use 3D Touch in other places — which I've gotten used to using fairly often over the last few years. Yeah, I'm the one. You're welcome.
It uses a system closer to the MacBook Trackpad, but with the Taptic Engine that still makes most competing haptics seem totally crude by comparison, but it only works on the Lock screen icons for Flashlight and Camera, the Control Center icons that spring up additional options, and the keyboard when you long-press the space bar to switch to trackpad mode.
Everything else, from Live Photos on the Lock screen to shortcuts on the Home screen to peek and pop… are simply not there. Like you might as well be using an iPhone 6 or iPhone SE or, yeah, iPad, not there.
它用起來就像 3D Touch，有時候根本忘了它不是3D Touch，
直到我用了其它機型才發現這我用了好幾年功能的差別，嘻嘻。
按起來近似 MacBook Trackpad，而 Taptic Engine 讓回饋更真實，
不過僅限於鎖定畫面上的手電筒跟相機按鈕、控制中心的進一步設定、
鍵盤長按空白啟動游標移動時等。
實況照片、通知中心的長按預覽等則沒效果，就像你在用
Phone 6、iPhone SE 或 iPad 一樣。

電池續航評價：

■TechRadar's Gareth Beavis
Apple believes you'll be able to get 90 minutes more battery life out of the iPhone XR than the 8 Plus, which is a big jump in real terms.
Well – and we don't want to spoil the surprise a little later – we'd say it's even better: the iPhone XR finally achieves the holy grail of all-day battery life in an iPhone.
蘋果說 XR 能比 iPhone 8 Plus 多 90 分鐘的續航。
跟你說簡直超過預期，iPhone XR 穩拿全天續航機種的聖杯。

■Mark Spoonauer writing for Tom's Guide:
On the Tom's Guide Battery Test, which involves continuous web surfing at 150 nits of screen brightness, the iPhone XR lasted 11 hours and 26 minutes. That beats the times from the iPhone XS Max (10:38) and iPhone XS (9:41) by a significant margin. The Pixel 3 XL lasted only 9:30, while the Galaxy Note 9 also endured for 11:26.
In everyday use the iPhone XR's endurance also impressed. After unplugging at 100 percent at 7 a.m., I used the phone intermittently to play games, check Facebook and email, and stream Spotify and capture photos and videos, and I still have 24 percent battery left at 9 p.m.
在 Tom's Guide 的電池測試中，用 150 nits 的螢幕亮度持續上網，
iPhone XR 成績：11:26
iPhone XS Max ：10:38
Pixel 3 XL ： 9:30
Galaxy Note 9 ：11:26
日常使用的表現也不俗，早上 7 點從 100% 開始用，
玩遊戲、滑臉書、弄email、聽Spotify、拍照錄影、
到晚上 9 點我還有 24% 電量。

Macrumors 說有新的評價的話還會更新，有興趣的人可以追蹤，
看起來目前有許多好評，沒有太大的問題，
美肌自拍可能在下一版iOS也可能會改掉。
另外我沒有要買 Xr 也不是手機業在賣手機，沒有在推銷，
要推銷也輪不到我，感謝。
