that iPhone 10's max is making Apple a lot of money and we put the iPhone 10s through the ringer let's get to the core of Apple news and rumors the new iPhone 10s is in the Apple watch series for are out in the wild and apparently money is not an issue for Apple fans initial sales reports suggest that the more expensive iPhone Tenace max has been the bestseller this year in fact the 10s max is outselling the smaller tennis by three to four times according to analysts in fact demand in general is up from last year the more popular of the models is the 256 gig version which costs one thousand two hundred and forty nine dollars now if that's not impressive enough let's take a look at how much Apple is supposed to be making from each one of these units according to tech insights it only cost Apple about four hundred and fifty dollars to make an iPhone Tenace max with 256 gigs of storage now to get this price estimate the company took apart one of these phones and calculated the price per component researcher IHS market also came up with a similar estimate of 390 dollars for the 64 gig version of the 10s max Tim Cook has gone on the record before saying that these estimates usually don't even come close to the actual costs now whether intentional or because of production delays it seems like the move to delay the cheaper iPhone 10 R is literally paying off for Apple and that's the next one rumor has it Apple could still be having production issues with the cheaper iPhone 10 alternative according to a report by digit times Apple has had to increase the iPhone 10 orders from manufacturer Foxconn after their main supplier for this phone Pegatron has experienced more production delays and with the iPhone 10 are going on presale October 19th the clock is ticking for Apple meanwhile the Apple watch series for production is running at full steam according to another digit times report cited in Mac rumors Apple has had to hire a secondary watch assembler to make more units of the series for us to keep up with demand delivery dates for the series for on the Apple Store have already started to creep in to the end of October which I guess if your Apple is a good problem to have it looks like the entire internet including CNET has been busy conducting tests on the new iPhones and the results are kind of a mixed bag now let's start with the bad news which is the battery now thanks to I fix its teardown we know the actual size of the battery on the tennis and the tennis max which could play a part in how much it lasts a Tom sky report says the tennis and the tennis max have a shorter battery life than the 10 hours and 49 minutes of their predecessors now in the case of the tennis max the difference is not that significant it's only about 10 minutes but in the case of an iPhone 10 s the difference is an hour of battery life in the meantime we're running our own battery test to see if these results check out so stay tuned for that now if the battery is your main concern you may want to take that into consideration before you buy a 10 s but if like me the camera is your main priority there's good news and that's that you're getting a better camera despite it having the same amount of pixels as last year's iPhone 10 Lexie's camera test proves that the smart HDR on the new 10 SS really makes a difference at evening out highlights and lowlights especially if you're shooting in direct sunlight or in low-light with high contrast and portrait mode shots look a lot more natural thanks to that adjustable blur the other bit of good news is you may also be getting a tougher phone I conducted my own informal drop test where I dropped a brand new iPhone Tenace twice from hip height and twice from eye level and the phone survived with minimal damage now that's a far stretch from last year when our iPhone 10 cracked at the first drop from hip level and it looks like I wasn't the only one with these results tech smart conducted a similar drop test but this time with the Mac's the 10s and last year's 10 and the 10s came out victorious while the 10 suffered the worst blows I can't say for certain that it does have tougher glass but the results definitely speak for themselves and this week we're doing a dunk test so stay tuned for that camera test battery test water test drop test what other kind of testing do you want to see us do on that iPhone 10s hit me up on the comments section below or on Twitter and make sure to catch us next week with more apple core
