Week 37 in review: iPhone XS, XS Max and XR dominate the headlines

Week 37 of 2018 was dominated by Apple's event, which took place on Wednesday. It brought us a trio of new iPhones, new Apple Watch as well as some changes to the pricing and availability of older iPhones.

Almost every one of our most popular articles this week was about the new iPhones, but we still got a few interesting bits from elsewhere.

OnePlus confirmed that its next flagship will lack a 3.5mm audio jack, while Xiaomi set a date for the announcement of its Mi 8X smartphone. Meanwhile the Pocophone F1 went on open sale in India and underwent its first torture test, passing it with flying colors.

Check out the full list of popular stories to make sure you haven't missed anything.

They refine the iPhone X design, bring new storage options and double down on the notch and Face ID.

We sure can't wait to find out what the 6.1-inch iPhone will be called.

This is the successor to both the iPhone 8 and 8 Plus.

Possibly the most interesting iPhone to launch this year.

The Xs models will maintain a "serious" color scheme while the Xr will be as colorful as the iPhone 5c.

In a jab at Apple, Xiaomi is offering three bundles at the prices of the latest iPhones, and each consists of a phone, laptop, and accessories.

We are expecting to see some new iPhones, iPads, Series 4 Apple Watch, and the iOS 12.

Multi and single-core performance of the A12 are as expected.

Pricing and release dates of the three new iPhones.

Expect impressive screen-to-body ratio on the Nokia 9.

The last small iPhone is no longer available.

In most places, you'll get one physical SIM and one eSIM, but there are exceptions.

The Chinese company hints that its Mate 20 and Mate 20 Pro will take you

"beyond intelligence".

Why wait until tomorrow when you can show off renders of the new iPhones today?

All models come with the same 5W charger.

Just hours after the iPhone Xr was photographed in the wild, the more premium Xs was spotted as well.

All the important links from Apple's event yesterday gathered in one place.

It's official, folks. OnePlus even unveiled a version of its Bullets V2 headphones with USB-C as the 3.5mm model is going the way of the dodo.

It may pick up a few scratches, but can otherwise take a beating.

The iPhone X got retired.

Weibo has been buzzing with alleged photos of the upcoming flagship, but it's clear to see they are not genuine.

This also includes the older models.

It's only one version though, so you'll have to be okay with getting 6GB of RAM and 128GB of storage.

Fittingly, there's three of them.

“Samsung’s newest Galaxy device is bringing more ways to express yourself than ever before," claims the invite.

The company confirmed the launch event for the new phone on Weibo.

Plenty of new features thanks to the watchOS 5, the new gyroscope and ECG sensors.
