Honestly, this iPhone does not compare to my iPhone 8 plus. Although I am very happy with iPhone as a whole and I do like the camera quality and accessibility options, my iPhone XR often crashes in the middle of apps or starts freezing. I never had a single problem with my iPhone 8, so I was a bit disappointed, to say the least. I'm considering just going back to my iPhone 8, but I really like the camera quality on the XR. the FaceID was pretty cool at first but I found it to be kind of a pain when my son wanted to use my phone. I just ended up turning off the Passcode options. Which means I can no longer use Applepay, but I understand the data breach concerns. It took me a while to get used to the no home button feature. I prefer the home button because it can be kind of wonky unless you swipe it in the exact direction of the command you want to do.
