Is It True That The Airbus A350 Has A Slower Approach & Landing Speed Compared To Other Widebodies?

According to the pilots who fly the Airbus A350, it has a noticeably low landing speed for its size, although it isn’t enough of a difference to make it much of an outlier for widebody aircraft. The larger A380 has a higher landing speed than the A350, but not as much as one would expect for such a massive aircraft. The real outlier when it comes to commercial aircraft landing speed is the MD-11 trijet, which is fast to the point it requires more pilot training to operate safely.
