In the starting stages of the speed test, both phones were performing similarly but as once started to load more apps, the extra GB of RAM on the iPhone XS Max came in handy as it did not slow down while loading heavy apps like Asphalt 9 or Super Mario Run.

The iPhone XS Max was also significantly faster than the iPhone X in importing, compiling, and exporting a 4K video. The iPhone XS Max finished the first round of the speed test in 2 minutes 10 seconds, while the iPhone X took 2 minutes 44 seconds.

 Despite coming with 4GB RAM though, the iPhone XS Max unloaded the majority of the apps, though the iPhone X fared even worse with only 3GB RAM. In the second round of the test, the iPhone XS Max took 43 seconds while the iPhone X took almost a minute.
