The new iPhone XS is packed with the latest and greatest, plus it comes in a new gold color.

The XS features 5.8-inch Super Retina OLED display with a resolution of 2436 X 1125. It keeps the familiar screen size of 2017's iPhone X, but has more pixels and sharper resolution to make the screen look even clearer.

Inside the iPhone XS is the new A12 Bionic Chip, which is the world's first 7-nanometer chip -- an impressive feat. Expect this phone to be speedy, and iOS 12 to run as smooth as butter.
