No Manual Functions on Video Camera

Reviewed in the United States on October 29, 2018

I got the iPhone XS and returned it 3 hrs. later. I'm a filmmaker by trade and thought this could be a breakthrough in filmmaking especially with a high-end 4k camera on board. I got the phone home anxiously opened it up and went to the camera functions right away since that's all I care about, a phone is just a phone otherwise. Well, I shot some 4k footage, looked nice but now I need to see how creative I can get. I looked for the manual shutter speed control, there isn't one. I looked for the manual white balance, there isn't one. I looked. I looked for the manual ISO setting, not there. I looked for the manual aperture setting, doesn't have it. So basically its camera is not intended for any kind of production, it's really a point and shoot. The HDR feature is nice but again, no manual settings. Not production friendly at all. 3 hours later I repacked it and returned it and got the LGV40. Now I'll do a review on that as well but the IPhone XS doesn't even come close to the LGV40 in any shape or form.

I love Apple but hate this iPhone model

Reviewed in the United States on November 4, 2018

I recently upgraded from an iPhone 6, which I had no issues with at all, other than it being antiquated. In fact, I loved the phone and all of the features. I'll make this review easy by simply listing the pros and cons.

Pros:
-Waterproof (allegedly)
-Larger screen and better graphics
-Better camera quality than ever before

Cons:
-Insanely expensive
-Facial recognition is not that great. It works about 70% of the time and doesn't work randomly, for unknown reasons
-The processor is supposed to be faster but it is constantly lagging when using apps and I'm nowhere close to capacity
-With the home button gone, you have to swipe up from the bottom to close apps. This is problematic when using certain apps because I often inadvertently swipe up (when playing a game, for instance) and close the app
-The battery life is supposed to be better than previous models, however I don't notice a difference. The phone also takes a bit longer to fully charge

Lightning port earphone dock STILL huge design flaw...

Reviewed in the United States on October 13, 2018

O.K. folks, I love the camera on my new Xs, it is way better than my 6 or my SE. The screen res. and size are great as well. However... Apple has put its heels down on the not reinstating a 3.5 port for ear buds/phones and that, for me, is a really big problem. We are all reduced to using wireless phones or buds with all their inherent battery usage problems, OR, ear buds made expressly for lightning port connection - with their terrible flimsiness and proclivity to bend or break. This may be redundant or not important to many - but I hope that this review may give those pause who find this an important issue, and perhaps ever so slightly cajole Apple to reconsider either re-adding the 3.5 port, or making their lightning cable connection more robust. I have gone through 2 pairs of lightning port ear buds, and 2 apple lightning to 3.5 adapters. Very frustrating. Makes the Samsung Galaxy9 (with it's 3.5 headphone jack) really appealing.
