Hands-On with some top iPhone 10 are features check it out, how's it going guys Jeff Benjamin, with a 9 to 5 Mac. We are looking right now at the iPhone 10 R. This is a very highly anticipated release for Apple. It is not the top-of-the-line iPhone that claim goes to the iPhone, 10s and 10s max. However, it should easily be the more popular iPhone in my opinion, because of what it offers for the price when it comes to pure value. This phone is definitely a better buy than the iPhone 10 s and in some respects this phone is actually better than the iPhone 10 S, which is hard to believe but yeah.
It is true, and we'll discuss that in a little so inside the box, you get your typical iPhone stuff, the phone. Of course, you get some documentation. You get this little guy right here. Your five watt adapter, which is going to charge your phone super slow, but it gets the job done and yeah there still packing that in there, even though the phone is capable of fast charging, you also get a pair of ear pods, which connect to your iPhone using a lightning connection, of course, no 3.5, millimeter, headphone jack and no dongle in the box either to connect legacy headphones. So keep that in mind.
You also have your lightning cable, which can connect to your power adapter or connect to your Mac. If you want to sync with your Mac, okay, we've checked out the hardware. Let's briefly look at some documentation. Of course, you get your welcome little materials there, which kind of introduce you to how to use your phone, which actually can be pretty useful this time around, especially if you're upgrading from an iPhone 8 iPhone 7, one of the phones with a physical home button that documentation might indeed learn you something. You also have a sim eject tool, some regulatory information and, of course, what we've been waiting on wait for it.
Yes, indeed, the Apple stickers there we go my job's done here, but seriously. Let's talk price, let's compare it to the iPhone 10 s, which starts at $1000 and goes all the way up to their a hundred and fifty dollars for 512 gigabytes of storage. Now compare that to the iPhone 10 are none of the configurations go over $1000, and you can get in the game for just 750 bucks, which is still a lot of money. I mean, let's be honest here, that's still a lot of money, but it's not a thousand dollars. Here's what's really cool, though you can upgrade double your storage to 128 gigabytes for just $50 more now, when you hear 6.1 inch display, you might think wow, that's pretty big, but actually side-by-side with the iPhone 10 or iPhone 10s. It really doesn't look much bigger at all, even though it is physically bigger and even though 6.1 inches for a phone sounds like a lot really. It isn't when compared to the iPhone 10, and especially when compared to the iPhone 10s max, which is absolutely mammoth compared to the iPhone 10 R, as you can see right here.
But what really stands out about the iPhone 10 are to me is that Apple isn't asking customers to make a bunch of compromises. No most of the features that you find with the flagship phones, including the brand-new a12 Bionic processor, are included with the iPhone.10 are now the 10r does have three gigabytes of RAM, just like the ten of the 10s Macs in the 10s have four gigabytes of RAM. So that is a difference there. But when you run the Geek bench benchmarks for the CPU you're going to notice that the 10r ain't no slouch, as you can see right there, it is actually performing a little better than a 10s Macs, as you can see excellent bang for the buck, and it doesn't stop there. You get the same, enhanced wide-angle camera with that larger sensor same one, you find on the 10s and 10s macs and, as we previously explained, because apple kept the amount of megapixels the same, it means larger pixels, which can in turn gather more light, which results in better low-light performance.
This camera is perfect. Let me test it out for you. Let me show you what I mean here, so I have a set-up here in low-light conditions. Here's my iPhone 10 I, take the same photo with the 10 are almost at 10s, and once we zoom in the difference is apparent immediately much more green results from the iPhone 10 when compared to the 10 are unlike the 10s and 10s max you get the same, treat app the front-facing camera. That's been upgraded to support 60 frames per second 1080p video capture right there from the front-facing camera, who ever thought we'd see something like that.1080P 60 frames per second front-facing camera downright amazing, and it's here on the so-called budget iPhone, and because this is a legitimate, true death camera with all the bells and whistles right there. In that sensor, housing area, you get things like an emoji, so for the first time, budget users and I use the term budget lightly, because 750 bucks is not budget.
In my opinion, but budget users now have access to an emoji. So it should be a lot more pervasive now that more people can gain access to it in Moloch, of course, is there as well a new feature for iOS 12, allowing you to create your own custom and emoji, and even though the 10r lacks the dual camera setup with that extra telephoto lens, you can still use portrait mode now granted it only works with people, unlike the dual camera portrait mode, but it's still really impressive. You get a wide-angle view, and you get better low-light performance, because it's using that wide-angle lens, and you have the ability to adjust depth of field in post for portrait mode photos. You can go from f-16, F 1.4 and adjust background blur in post. Now, one of the things I raped about in my iPhone 10 s features.
Video was smart HDR, and it's super impressive in It's just as impressive here on the tin. Are skipping all the technical jargon it just means your photos are going to look better when there's extremely light or extremely dark elements in those photos. Thanks to the multiple microphones on the 10r, you can record sound and stereo when you're recording videos. Maybe you play it back on your iPhone directly, since it has stereo speakers or export it. Hopefully, you can hear that left and right.
Sound separation in like the 10s, when shooting 30, frames-per-second videos in low light, it can automatically lower the frame rate to help out in less than ideal lighting conditions face. I'd is available on the iPhone 10 R, which is great. It allows you to unlock your phone with your face easy to set up. Let me show you how easy it is. So all you do look at the screen and kind of twirl your head around, like that.
Once all the green bars are full just tap on continue and do it one more time, let's just rotate your head, and we're done. Super simple super easy to keep in mind that face ID up until now has been exclusive to the high-end iPhone. It's a welcome addition, the most obvious difference between the 10 R and the 10s are the colors right. There are six different, brilliant colors to choose from including white black blue, yellow coral and product red. Now I opted for the blue, iPhone 10 R, and really even this video, but definitely the press images.
Don't do it. Justice, look at the color matched anodized aluminum band and the antenna lines. I've to appreciate the attention to detail there. It's like a rebirth of the colorful iPhone 5c of yesteryear, which is one of my favorite iPhones ever and there's new iPhone 10 R centric wallpaper these bubble, wallpapers come in all sorts of colors to match the various colors of the iPhone 10 R, for instance, I, especially like the look at the blue bubble on the blue, iPhone I. Just think it looks great, but lots of new wallpaper there to choose from find what works for you and Apple has what's here, calling I love, apples, marketing, liquid Retina display only Apple would come up with something that selling it's so ridiculous, but it is a very impressive LCD.
Obviously it has a backlight, so you're not gonna, get those rich, deep, blacks that you get from Poland, but it's nonetheless an impressive display. Absolutely, if you're looking at it from an angle, especially in a dark environment, that backlights going to become a little more obvious. But if you're looking Street at the iPhone 10 R, it's actually pretty good and it's so impressive how they were able to get that all screen design with the LCD going all into the corners like that and here's. Another thing: colors are super accurate on the iPhone 10 R, and it supports white color. So you saw well, you didn't see the white color test on the iPad.
The entry-level iPad I just showed you, but here you can actually see the logo because it supports white color. You couldn't see it on the iPad, because the iPad didn't support white color. But here's where things get fascinating. When you think a battery life, you think automatically get the biggest iPhone right. The iPhone 10s max is going to be the best with battery life right.
No, the iPhone 10 R has the best battery life of any iPhone ever it matches talk time and audio playback of the iPhone 10 s max and actually surpasses the 10 s Max and Internet usage and video playback. That's crazy, good battery life. Now, if you made it this far into the video I'm, pretty sure you figured out by now that there's no home button on the iPhone 10 R. So what does that mean? Well, it means you use. iPhone 10 asked gestures, so you can swipe up and hold for a second to invoke the apps, which I know there are other ways to do that.
Folks, I know some people are gonna comment, there are other ways to do that: Jeff yeah, that's cool! You can also swipe to the left or to the right on the home indicator to switch between apps there's. Just so many gestures check out our gestures, video linked above for more details. When you think of tapped awake, you usually think of OLED displays, but here on the iPhone 10 R you get to have to wait on an LCD which is really cool, I love to have to wake once you use it. You never want to go back, so I'm happy to know that the 10r has it and then the last feature will touch on that's hilarious. Huh, is haptic touch, which is basically glorified long pressing with haptic feedback.3D touch isn't included, which is a bummer admittedly, but haptic touch does work in specific areas on your phone. So, ladies and gentlemen, that has been a look at some top iPhone 10 are features, but should you buy an iPhone 10 are? Should you hold off will consider that in an upcoming video thumbs up? If you appreciate this video- and let me know what you think down below in the comments, this is Jeff with nine-to-five Mac.
