You’ll likely use it once and then forget it’s there. These slow-motion selfies are surprisingly fun but also a bit gimmicky. The front camera now boasts 12 megapixels and can now capture, erm, ‘ slofies‘. You can shoot on both cameras up to 4K60fps and the colours and tone are well-balanced across both. Other phones might be able to match the iPhone 11 in terms of general picture quality, however the iPhone’s video capabilities are head and shoulders above the rest. Detail has been dramatically upped from the previous iPhones and, to my eye, dynamic range is better – giving you a clearer definition between the lightest and darkest elements of the picture. Pictures taken in less taxing environments are predictably excellent. IPhone 11 (left) vs Pixel 3 (right) (drag the slider to compare the two photos) When comparing photos from the Pro and 11 I can’t see any differences at all. I’d take ultra wide angle over zoomed any day, so it’s a fair trade in my eyes. The only thing you’re missing out on is the telephoto, 2x ‘optical’ zoomed camera that sits on the Pro. Even though the iPhone 11 is a lot more affordable than the Pro models, it retains exactly the same wide angle 12-megapixel optical image stabilised (OIS) main sensor with an f/1.8 aperture and the same 12-megapixel ultra wide angle camera (f/2.4). The shorter verdict is that these new rear cameras are excellent. Camera – The iPhone 11 camera is an excellent improvement in so many waysĪs the camera is such a vital part of the new iPhone 11 series, and because it is just so darn good, we’ve got a dedicated iPhone 11 camera review page featuring an extended, in-depth look at the duo of cameras on the back of this phone – along with a look at how it compares to two of our favourite competing Android phones. Even though in some situations Google’s flagship takes better pictures, the versatility of the iPhone camera shines through. Since the iPhone 11 hit shelves, we’ve also seen the Pixel 4 debut. It has received a number of iOS updates that have sorted a number of early software issues we had with – notably the system-wide search functions properly again – and our review unit hasn’t picked up any obvious dings or dents even though it’s not being used with a case.

We’ve been using the iPhone 11 since its release so that’s several months now, and as you would hope it is standing up well. There are now two cameras on the back, for example, and the same A13 chipset you’ll find in the Pro model.īelow we’ll talk about the new iPhone’s camera, display, performance, design and battery life. IPhone 11 takes the iPhone XR, keeps the design virtually unchanged and alters the internals. The iPhone 11 is the successor to the excellent iPhone XR and it is the best overall iPhone you can buy this year.
