We waiting
[edit]Is it article will be maked after Apple Event 2018, or we should create this (iPhone Xs (Max)) right now? --93.81.50.159 (talk) 16:18, 12 September 2018 (UTC)
Screen to body ratio
[edit]What is the screen to body ratio of the iPhone XS and the iPhone XS Max? Ram Zaltsman (talk) 15:03, 20 September 2018 (UTC)
Battery Size?
[edit]I think it might be worth noting in this entry that the size of the iPhone XS' battery was actually decreased from the battery size of the X. Due to the performance of the new chipset, battery life has actually remained about the same, but this was an unusual move in the new tech market, and might be worth noting, as it actually made a number of headlines. If no one has any opposition, I'll make this change and provide relevant references. Jcsmit46 (talk) 19:37, 22 September 2018 (UTC) James 09/22/18
- Apple has actually done this a number of times, so personally I think the press made a big deal out of it because quite frankly there wasn’t much else to say about the XS (besides the high price tag). However it is still pertinent information, and I have no particular objection to mentioning it. Zecanard (talk) 19:43, 22 September 2018 (UTC)
Good point, in my post, I'll make a point of noting not that this was a particularly unusual move, but rather it was noted heavily in the media. Potentially because of the high price point of these phones. Jcsmit46 (talk) 20:48, 22 September 2018 (UTC)
Global perspective and prices
[edit]344917661X removed all the prices, which had been in the article since the beginning, claiming they were promotional. I restored them. Hayman30 removed all except US dollars with the claim that iPhones are designed in the US and Wikipedia is founded in the US, just the USD price is fine
which is plainly against writing from a global perspective, embodied in WP:DUE and WP:GLOBAL. I think we should list the prices in the top markets for the iPhone, US, EU, UK and CN. I removed Rupees because that seems trivial and despite the large population of India from what I understand there is a relatively small market for iPhones. But let us discuss which if any prices should be listed. —DIYeditor (talk) 20:37, 5 November 2018 (UTC)
- I can't believe an edit war started because I removed the price tags. All I can say is that I am sorry for what I did. 344917661X (talk) 20:40, 5 November 2018 (UTC)
- It's no problem, you didn't do anything wrong, you made a WP:BOLD edit per WP:BRD. The issue is with what followed from Hayman30 but that will be settled on the edit war noticeboard not here. We just need to decide how the article should read. —DIYeditor (talk) 20:42, 5 November 2018 (UTC)
- Thank you for understanding. I would much rather not take part in the discussion on the edit war noticeboard though. 344917661X (talk) 20:49, 5 November 2018 (UTC)

Proposing a Compromise Between Stylization and Marketing
[edit]The people who are editing this article cannot seem to agree on which style is correct for how the iPhone XS is stylized. Some editors use the simpler option, "iPhone XS", which is found on Apple's website inside of the many paragraphs used to explain and/or market the XS. Others use the more complex option, "iPhone X🅂", simply because it matches the logo design found in most marketing videos and advertisements. Changes like these, although insignificant, have oscellated several times since the article's inception. This means that although people seem to disagree on which style is correct, nobody is really sure what the right style to use is.
Since nobody has done so yet, I would like to propose a compromise between these two forms, by putting both styles in the same area with different tags. For example, this is what I envision the compromise could look like:
iPhone XS and iPhone XS Max (stylized as iPhone XS and iPhone XS Max; marketed as iPhone X🅂 and iPhone X🅂 Max, Roman numeral "X" pronounced "ten")
Or if the suggestion above is seen as unnecessarily long, the compromise could be shortened to this:
iPhone XS and iPhone XS Max (stylized as XS and marketed as X🅂, Roman numeral "X" pronounced "ten")
Or the compromise could be something else entirely. I am willing to take suggestions from other editors who show concerns about this topic as much as I do. However, we cannot continue with what we are currently doing. The issue will not just go away by itself if we refuse to resolve this disagreement.

[edit]@Hayman30: The word "iPhone" is mentioned four times in the opening sentence, so I reduced two instances of these to improve the sentence flow. Why contest it? You've gone incognito (talk ⋅ contribs) 14:04, 22 October 2019 (UTC)
- Shortening "iPhone Xs Max" to "Xs Max" is inappropriate because that may mislead the reader into thinking that the bigger phone is simply called "Xs Max". This has nothing to do with repetitiveness, it's about clarity. It has been this way ever since Apple introduced a Plus variant for the iPhone. This is also the case for other smartphone series.

Rename
[edit]If all the other S-model iPhones are now minuscule instead of majuscule, then surely this should be changed too, especially since it uses the same font. 2A02:C7C:847D:400:19C6:5909:835E:E1E (talk) 22:51, 15 September 2023 (UTC)
