185: iPhone XR vs. XS Display: OLED Worth an Extra $250?

Vector with Rene Ritchie

iPhone XR starts at $749. That's $250 less than XS and $350 less than XS Max. And one of the biggest reasons for the difference is the 326ppi LCD display instead of the 458ppi OLED..

So, is that worth the $250 or $350 — or more, depending on the storage — price tag difference?

The bottom line for me is this: Once you dive deep into display nerdery, things like “1080p in 2018” just sound utterly uninformed. It’s a factor, sure, but it’s not even close to the top of the list of what makes for a first class display experience in 2018.

Don’t just take my word on that either, take a bunch of words.
