The notch contains all the same front-facing cameras and sensors as the iPhone XS, and the dual speakers still face the same way when pumping out sound.Display: At 6.1 inches, the XR's display is situated about halfway size-wise between the other two phones. It features the same long 19.5:9 format. The biggest differences come in screen technology and resolution. While the XS phones are equipped with Super Retina OLED displays, the XR is based on an LCD panel with HD resolution.
