The iPhone XS itself is 13mm wider than the S.

As someone who uses an iPhone 7 Plus with one hand, I'm surprised that 13mm would make a difference. I'd be curious to hear what you thought after using one for a week.

It's the screen size that matters. I can reach the top corners of a iPhone5-sized phone with ease. iPhone6-sized phones require me to strain or give up and use the reachability feature. I don't think I'm alone in this.

13mm is nearly 1/4 the length of my thumb. I do not have unusually sized hands.

13mm wider than what? There is no "S"...
