People are already trolling Apple over the iPhone’s new names
Apple may as well have launched an iPhone XD, because the internet’s heaping the hilarious hot takes on the company’s new smartphone names.
Leaked earlier today through its own website, Cupertino’s three new phones will be called the iPhone XS, iPhone XS Max, and the iPhone XR.
Fans aren’t warming to them.
It’s official, iPhone XS, XS Max, and iPhone XR. I’ll get use to it, but those are awful names.

“XS MAX, I keep seeing ‘EXCESS MAX.’ It sounds a new Pepsi Beverage,” wrote one Twitter user.
“XrR sounds like a new model from Mazda.”

Others stuck with the car theme.

Some felt they were more suited to energy drinks than cars or smartphones.
so the new iphones are called “xs, xs max and sr”, huh
honestly this makes iphones sound much more like energy drinks to me than they sound like phones

The company’s only set to launch its new iPhone range at 7pm SAST on Wednesday, so we can expect some interesting hot takes after the event.
