Apple on September 10, 2019, unveiled the iPhone 11, its new flagship
$699 smartphone that gives a variety of powerful features at a
reasonable tag. Sold alongside the costlier iPhone 11 Pro and therefore
the iPhone 11 Pro Max, the iPhone 11 goes to be the iPhone perfect for
many people.
The iPhone 11 succeeds the iPhone XR, and it features a 6.1-inch LCD that Apple calls a "Liquid Retina HD Display." It features a 1792 x 828 resolution at 326ppi, a 1400:1 contrast ratio, 625 nits max brightness, True Tone support for adjusting the white balance to the ambient lighting, and wide color support for true-to-life colors.
Like the iPhone XR, the iPhone 11 doesn't include 3D Touch, instead of using Haptic Touch. Haptic Touch is supported across iOS 13, but it lacks the pressure sensitivity of 3D Touch.
Design-wise, the iPhone 11 features a glass body that comes in six different colors: White, Black, Yellow, (PRODUCT)RED, Purple, and Green. The latter two colors are both new in 2019.
The iPhone 11 doesn't look much different than the iPhone XR, but Apple says it's made up of the the toughest glass ever during a smartphone and offers improved water resistance (IP68), boosting overall durability. Spatial audio offers a more immersive sound experience and Dolby Atmos is supported.
The camera system sets the iPhone 11 aside from the XR, with Apple introducing a replacement dual-lens camera that's an improvement over the prior single-lens camera. The camera setup features a typical wide-angle camera and a replacement ultra-wide-angle camera with a 120-degree field of view. Unlike the iPhone 11 Pro and Pro Max, there's no telephoto optical lens.
Apple says the ultra-wide-angle camera captures fourfold more scenes, making it ideal for landscape photos, architecture images, tight shots, and more. Both of the cameras work together to enable Portrait mode for people, pets, objects, and more, an upgrade over the iPhone XR that only supported person shots in Portrait mode.
The camera interface on the iPhone 11 has been overhauled with a more immersive experience that allows you to see and capture the world outside of the frame using the ultra-wide-angle camera if desired. 2x optical zoom out is supported, as is digital zoom up to 5x.
Apple has added a replacement Night mode that's designed to use the iPhone's processing capabilities and therefore the new wide camera sensor to capture crisp, clear, bright photos even in very low lighting conditions, almost like the Night Sight mode on Google Pixel devices.
Next-generation Smart HDR takes advantage of machine learning to capture more natural-looking images with improved highlight and shadow detail, and in iOS 13.2, Apple is introducing a Deep Fusion feature that uses advanced machine-learning techniques for pixel-by-pixel processing of photos, optimizing for texture, details, and noise. beat all, the iPhone 11 offers much improved photographic capabilities over the XR.
4K video with extended dynamic range is out there at 24, 30, or 60fps, and both of the cameras within the iPhone 11 are often used for recording video, with live swapping available employing a simple tap.
A QuickTake video mode allows you to hold down on the shutter button within the Camera app to automatically record video with the subject tracking and an Audio Zoom feature matches the audio to the video framing for more dynamic sound.
The front-facing TrueDepth Camera system has been updated with a replacement 12-megapixel camera, and making Face ID up to 30 percent faster and ready to work from more angles. For the primary time, it supports 120 fps slo-mo video, allowing users to capture slo-mo selfies, aka "selfies." The TrueDepth camera also supports next-generation smart HDR for more natural-looking photos and it can record 4K video at 60 fps.
