Apple iPhone 11 Full Review!
Hey what's up guys will here for
GMD the iPhone 11 is the cheapest model of the 11 series and the successor to
last years 10 are what's been upgraded since last year and compared to the pro
versions but a source of trade-offs would you had to live with let's find out
in our 4 of you looks-wise the iPhone 11 doesn't bring many surprises it's
quite similar in appearance to last year's iPhones it's made of ion
strengthened glass on the front and back its frame is made of brushed aluminum
though rather than the stainless steel you get on the more premium 11 pearl
models the iPhone 11 comes in a set of new colors and The purple one we
have looked snazzy and fresh plus the new square camera setup makes it stand out
compared to the pro model of the finish here isn't frosted but glossy so it
will get smudged more easily and isn't quite as scratch-resistant the water
resistance has been bumped up from IP 67 to IP 68 this year so now it can
survive under 2 meters of water for half an hour the pro models can go twice
that depth the size is quite comfortable in the hand a bit larger than the
11pro but still okay for one-handed use the dimensions and weight is the same
as last year's iPhone 10 are along that same vein the iPhone 11 screen is also
exactly the same as the 10 hours it's a 6.1 inch IPS LCD with a sizable notch
cut out and a pixel density of 326 PPI the bezels are thicker here than on the
iPhones with OLED screens you get used to it but they do stand out when you
first see them just like last year's 10 are the screen is excellent with good contrast
and accurate colors the true tone feature will automatically adjust white
balance based on the ambient light and though the panel isn't quite as sharp as
the pro models OLED screen it was hard for me to tell the difference with a
naked eye however something the iPhone 11 doesn't offer is HDR 10 support or
Dolby vision which is available on the higher tier models it does bring the
same low touch latency though thanks to 120 Hertz input poling it's a nice
boost for gaming but sadly the screens refresh rate is still capped at the
regular 60 Hertz maximum brightness is good we measured up to 640 nits with a
manual slider there should be no problem using the phone outdoors unlocking the the phone is quite secure with Apple's Face ID which uses 3d facial mapping it's
quite fast as well but still requires you to swipe on the screen after you've
been recognized for audio, the iPhone 11 Pro has a pair of stereo loudspeakers,
they're not as balanced as those on the pro model which has more bass from the
top speaker but they still have a rich sound with a very good measured loudness
and support for spatial audio it's no surprise that there is no headphone jack
here and Apple still doesn't bundle an adapter but you do get ear pods in the
box that you can plug directly into the Lightning port the iPhone 11 runs the The latest iOS 13 points one at the time of review and it's quite familiar though
does bring a few new features to the table one such feature is a
system-wide dark mode which can turn all of your white menus into black ones
unfortunately, since this is an LCD screen you don't save power like you would
on an OLED but hey it still looks cool another change from before is that
instead of 3d touch which activated context-sensitive actions based on the the pressure of your finger on the screen now there is only haptic touch which triggers
things with a long press there have been some upgrades to the photo the editor
which has many new options and filters and intensity sliders to give your
pictures just the right touch and it does not just photo there are plenty of options
to customize your videos to just keep in mind when taking lots of photos and
videos that storage is expandable here if you end up buying the 64-gigabyte option
you might run out of space pretty easily inside the iPhone 11 is Apple's new a
13 Bionic chipset and along with that is four gigs of RAM the performance here
is just the same as on the pro version that is to say brilliant it's unmatched
by anything in the Android world the iPhone 11 aces benchmarks providing 20%
better CPU performance over last year's chipset, it does a great job at staying
cool too they say heat dispersing graphene layers to sustain performance for
something like heavy gaming is great without much thermal throttling on top of
that the a13 is more power-efficient than last year's chip the iPhone 11 has a
30 100 million power battery just a little bigger than the 10r but battery life
is much better here we measured a great endurance reading of 94 hours in our
proprietary battery tests this is even better than the iPhone 11 Pro perhaps
due to the different power draw from the screens, there's support for 18 watts
fast charging like on the pro models but here it doesn't come with a phone you
only get a 5-watt one that charges the phone from zero to only 18% and half an
hour whereas the faster the charger would get you up to 55% there's support for
qi wireless charging to Apple doesn't make a charging pad so you need to use a
third-party one moving on to the cameras plural here unlike the iPhone 10 R is
single-camera now on top of the 12 megapixels main camera a pixel ultra-wide
shooter the thing that's missing though is the third telephoto camera that
comes with a pro version in daylight photos from the main camera has rich
detail impressively low noise and excellent dynamic range they aren't perfect
though colors are accurate if you enjoy a more vibrant look they seem a bit
bland and washed out contrast is a bit lacking and there is some over-sharpening
one interesting feature is called capture outside the frame when you snap a
photo with the main cam the phone will also take one with the ultra-wide two
then when it recognizes that you accidentally cropped a person out of the frame
will suggest a wider angle that fits the man the feature also works for videos
the ultra-wide cam itself is pretty average as far as these type of cameras go
there's no OIS or autofocus quality-wise photos from this camera are decent
with colors contrast and dynamic range matching the main cam but there is some
visible noise and we wish there was a more detailed portrait mode uses the\ the the main camera in good lighting you get nice detail and colors but unlike the iPhone
11 Pro this setup doesn't use a second camera for depth mapping so the subject
separation isn't quite as good with some defects here and there moving on to
nighttime photography when the light gets low the iPhone 11 will automatically
switch to night mode and will take a pseudo long exposure shot the quality of
This is superb there's plenty of detail balance sharpening excellent colors in
contrast balance exposure we didn't get a single blurry photo while shooting
either if you ought to turn off night mode the results are still good with plenty
of detail and low noise but the exposure is dark there is no night mode on the ultra-wide
cam and if you try to shoot with it in low-light, the results are pretty bad this
year's iPhone brings an upgrade to the selfie camera, it's now 12 megapixels
with a wider 23 millimeter lands depending on the orientation of the phone the
selfie cam will switch between the new wider field of view or a cropped one
similar to last years or you can toggle it manually the selfies use Smart HDR
and their quality is top-notch there is more than enough detail balanced
sharpening and great dynamic range colors are accurate though still, a bit
washed out the selfie cam can now take video and up to 4k or 60fps and it's
stabilized though it's quite well there's no autofocus here you can also
take slow fees which are what Apple calls slo-mo selfie videos in 1080p at 120
fps, it's kind of gimmicky but you can have some fun with it videos from the
rear cameras can also be taken in up to 4k at 60fps they all have is and can
use smart HDR and have a wide stereo sound recording to 4k videos from the main
camp look very good with plenty of detail low noise spot-on sharpness
impressive dynamic range and true-to-life colors the colors actually don't look
as washed out as instill photos either 4k footage from the ultra-wide snapper
is average in quality it's lacking in detail and the corners are soft but there
are still good colors contrast and dynamic range so that's the iPhone 11 though
it is the budget option that still bring some top-notch features like a
water-resistant design with plenty of color options a bright LCD screen nice stereo
speakers world-class performance great photo quality especially at night and
really good battery life so what about the shortcomings well compared to In the
pro versions you don't get the brilliant OLED screen or the telephoto cam and
the glass on the back isn't frosted for that's worth also the lack of a proper The The charger in the box is kind of insulting but overall the iPhone 11 still brings pretty
much the same experience as the pro versions had a much more competitive price
is even cheaper than the 10r ones has 700 bucks for a 64 gig option is still
far from a budget phone but it's more appealing than a thousand and deserves a
recommendation thanks for watching guys and see you in the next one.
