What's THE better option iphone xs or xr?

XS if you could afford it.
XR otherwise.

With Apple products, just go for the top of the line /series, as it will normally have all the options as well as colors, before the cheaper model iPhones will, before the, . 1. Or. 2 versions hit the market. That is if you can afford more expensive version. Also, try all versions of the phones you are interested side by side in an Apple store. Test all features that you normally use and the newer options as well. Then with hands on testing, you know which features or lack thereof you can and can't live with /without.
