Note: You can skip this if you’re not interested in reading anything bad about Apple or the way it tries to earn more money from its customers. No headphone dongle (because apparently it’s impossible to include a $9 accessory with a $999 iPhone).Charger ( not a fast charger, so it takes forever to charge your new iPhone).Lightning EarPods (because of the courage Apple showed two years back).Apple stickers (whatever you do, please don’t stick these on your car? Please?).Lots and lots of manuals and certification cards that you won’t ever read.The iPhone XS (because you paid for it).I’m not sure if the other colors come with the text and logo in their respective colors as well, but they probably do.Īnyway, opening the box is the usual Apple affair with easy to slide-out lids, a pull tab for the phone, and some in-box accessories under it.
The Gold variant that we got (which looks gorgeous, by the way) comes in a standard white box with the ‘iPhone’ text and the Apple logo done in gold - that’s a nice touch. The iPhone XS comes in the usual iPhone-y box that has remained the same for the last, I don’t know how many years, and that’s perfectly fine.
