The XS and XS Max support dual SIMs through a nano-SIM and an eSIM. In mainland China, Hong Kong, and Macau, however, the XS Max comes with a dual nano-SIM tray (and no eSIM). The XS does not have a dual nano-SIM tray, so the eSIM functionality is enabled for use in Hong Kong and Macau, but not in mainland China.{{cite web|script-title=zh:iPhone XS - 技术规格|url=https://www.apple.com/cn/iphone-xs/specs|website=Apple|access-date=September 16, 2018|language=zh-CN|archive-date=September 14, 2018|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180914132036/https://www.apple.com/cn/iphone-xs/specs/|url-status=live}}{{cite web|title=iPhone XS – Technical Specifications|url=https://www.apple.com/hk/en/iphone-xs/specs|website=Apple|access-date=September 16, 2018|language=en-HK|archive-date=September 16, 2018|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180916061803/https://www.apple.com/hk/en/iphone-xs/specs/|url-status=live}}{{cite web|script-title=zh:iPhone XS - 技術規格|url=https://www.apple.com/mo/iphone-xs/specs|website=Apple|access-date=September 16, 2018|language=zh-MO|archive-date=September 16, 2018|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180916093033/https://www.apple.com/mo/iphone-xs/specs/|url-status=live}}

This technology combines multiple photos of varying exposures to increase dynamic range on the iPhones' photos, but can also reduce facial imperfections and highlights in selfies. Some, who speculated this was the result of a hidden "beauty mode" (an actual feature in some smartphones), dubbed the issue "Beautygate".
