All-new Liquid Retina display — the most advanced LCD in the industry. Even faster Face ID. The smartest, most powerful chip in a smartphone. And a breakthrough camera system. iPhone XR. It’s beautiful any way you look at it.
Liquid Retina
Introducing the most advanced LCD in the industry.
All-new Liquid Retina. Innovative engineering allows us to stretch the display into the corners. The result is an all-screen design — our largest LCD ever in an iPhone — that still fits comfortably in your hand.
Beauty through innovation. Our breakthrough LCD display is the most advanced — and most color-accurate — in the industry. Which makes everything you see look true to life.
The industry’s best color accuracy. Advanced color management automatically displays your content in wide color. So everything you look at looks amazing.
True Tone. A six-channel light sensor subtly adjusts the white balance onscreen to match the color temperature of the light around you. So images on the display look as natural as on a printed page and are easier on your eyes.
Resists water and dust. The most durable front glass in a smartphone, sealed and precision-fitted with the aerospace‑grade aluminum band, helps create an enclosure that’s water resistant up to 1 meter for 30 minutes. iPhone XR even resists spills from coffee, tea, soda, and more.
No Home button? No problem. You can go everywhere you need to go with a few simple actions.
Face ID
Your face is your password.
Security made simple. Face ID reinvented the way we unlock, log in, and pay. Some of our most sophisticated technologies — the TrueDepth camera system, the Secure Enclave, and the Neural Engine — make it the most secure facial authentication ever in a smartphone. And even faster and easier to use.
Adaptive recognition. Face ID uses advanced machine learning to recognize changes in your appearance. Wear a hat. Put on glasses. It even works with many types of sunglasses.
Do more with a glance. Face ID does so much more than unlock your iPhone. So you can forget about typing user names and passwords. Now all it takes is a look.
Unlock in an instant. The advanced Secure Enclave and new algorithms make Face ID even faster. So you’ll love it even more.
Log in to your apps and accounts. Face ID works with the apps you already use — from banking and health apps to locked notes and private documents.
Apple Pay in stores. No need to take out your wallet. Just hold your iPhone up to the reader. It’s actually more secure than using your physical card.
Apple Pay in apps and online. It’s never been easier to pay for a ride, buy your next favorite pair of sneakers, or send cash to a friend in Messages.
The technology behind simplicity. The innovative technologies in the TrueDepth camera system work together in real time to recognize you in an instant.
A12 Bionic
The smartest, most powerful chip in a smartphone.
A whole new level of intelligence. The A12 Bionic, with our next-generation Neural Engine, delivers incredible performance. It uses real-time machine learning to transform the way you experience photos, gaming, augmented reality, and more.
Apple-designed CPU. Two performance cores tackle heavy computational tasks. And four efficiency cores take on everyday tasks. Our newest performance controller dynamically divides work across these cores, harnessing all six when a power boost is needed.
Apple-designed GPU. A new fourth core and lossless memory compression bring big gains in graphics performance to games, video editing, and visually demanding apps.
Apple-designed Neural Engine. Our Neural Engine is built for advanced, real-time machine learning. That means iPhone XR can recognize patterns, make predictions, and learn from experience, similar to the way you do.
The Neural Engine is incredibly fast, able to perform five trillion operations per second. It’s incredibly efficient, which enables it to do all kinds of new things in real time. And it’s incredibly smart, so you can do things like jump right into immersive AR experiences. And quickly find all your pictures of dogs. Or beaches. Or babies.
We’ve also opened the Neural Engine up to the Core ML platform, so developers can bring powerful, real-time machine learning to their apps — learning that happens right on your iPhone.
Enhanced ISP. The image signal processor features a refined depth engine, which captures extraordinary detail in Portrait mode. And with Smart HDR, you’ll notice far greater dynamic range in your photos.
A12 Bionic in action. The processing power and intelligence of the A12 Bionic make iPhone XR incredibly capable. But the chip was also designed with efficiency in mind. So when you put all that power into play, you still get great battery life.
Rear camera AR. Faster detection of flat surfaces in a scene lets you jump right into immersive augmented reality experiences.
Front camera AR. Apps can use the TrueDepth camera and A12 Bionic chip to create rich, detailed backgrounds and generate 3D effects.
Immersive gaming. The new GPU makes all kinds of games — especially 3D, graphics-intensive gameplay — faster and more fluid. iPhone has never been this much fun.
Smart HDR. The enhanced ISP processes even more data from the camera sensor. Which gives you greater dynamic range with better motion freezing, excellent noise reduction in low light, and more.
Advanced Face ID. The TrueDepth camera and Neural Engine work together to recognize you — even if you put on a hat, grow a beard, or wear glasses.
Expressive Memoji. Together, the A12 Bionic and TrueDepth camera track more than 50 facial muscles to make Memoji that move and react like you.
Advanced camera system
Say hello to a new era of photography.
Sensors, processors, algorithms, and you. An innovative camera system integrates the ISP, the Neural Engine, and advanced algorithms to unlock new creative possibilities and help you capture incredible photos.
Smart HDR. Leveraging multiple technologies — like faster sensors, an enhanced ISP, and advanced algorithms — Smart HDR brings more highlight and shadow detail to your photos.
Bokeh and Depth Control. iPhone XR has even more sophisticated bokeh, or background blur, for stunning portraits. And all‑new Depth Control lets you adjust the depth of field after you shoot.
Enhanced Portrait mode selfies. The TrueDepth camera generates a precise depth map to keep you in focus against a blurred background. Depth Control lets you adjust the depth of field after you shoot.
More low‑light detail. The camera sensor features deeper, larger pixels. Deeper to improve image fidelity. And larger to allow more light to hit the sensor. The result? Even better low‑light photos.
Sharper action shots. Faster sensors, Smart HDR, and zero shutter lag combine to let you freeze a moment in time with more highlight and shadow detail.
4K video and wider stereo playback. iPhone XR shoots the highest‑quality video of any smartphone. With better low‑light performance. Extended dynamic range in videos up to 30 fps. Stereo recording. And stereo playback with wider sound separation.
A picture is worth a trillion operations. The iPhone XR camera system harnesses the unprecedented power of the Neural Engine and its ability to perform five trillion operations per second. Together with the Apple‑designed ISP, it works like the world’s fastest photographer’s assistant to help turn your pictures into showstoppers.
Here’s just a fraction of what the camera system considers even before you shoot.
More control over your image. Portrait mode captures depth information that lets you adjust the depth of field and add creative Portrait Lighting effects.

Only iPhone
No other phone is like iPhone.
Only when hardware and software are designed together can they truly work together.
Apple teams design the world’s best products, with the most innovative displays, chips, cameras, operating systems, and services. But just as important, the teams collaborate so that all the components of iPhone work together efficiently and beautifully.
While this might seem like an obvious way to work, no other smartphone is made this way. And it makes all the difference.
It means that the camera team can work with the chip team to leverage the power of the A12 Bionic. So that when you frame a shot, the ISP and Neural Engine identify faces in the frame. Detect specific features. And optimize for lighting, white balance, and more before you even tap the shutter.
This is the kind of stuff you’d never even know is happening. You just see the result — the shot you wanted, with more detail, true-to-life color, and dynamic range than you would have thought possible from a smartphone.
We believe privacy is a fundamental human right.
This is one of our core principles at Apple. It’s why we design iPhone from the ground up to keep your personal information private and secure. And it’s one of the things that sets iPhone apart.
For example, every new iPhone comes with Face ID, the most secure facial authentication ever in a smartphone. The data used to identify you is encrypted and protected by the Secure Enclave. That’s a discrete part of the chip, so your data can’t be accessed by iOS or apps. And it isn’t stored on Apple servers or backed up to iCloud. Instead, it stays on your device, with you, where it belongs.
The same principle holds true for Apple Pay, which is even more secure than using your physical card. And Maps, which takes the data needed for navigation routing and associates it with random identifiers, so it can’t be tied to your Apple ID. The list goes on. In fact, no other smartphone does as much to protect your privacy.
iPhone is built to be used. And reused.
iPhone is made with exceptional materials, like surgical-grade stainless steel, aerospace-grade aluminum, and the most durable glass in the industry. As a result, iPhone lasts longer and holds a much higher percentage of its value than any other smartphone. Which is why so many older devices go to friends and family instead of landfills — and that’s the best form of recycling there is.
