The Differences Between the Standard iPhone 11 and the Pro Models
When it comes to the latest iPhones, one of the most noticeable differences between the standard iPhone 11 and the pro models is the charger. The iPhone 11 Pro and Pro Max come with an 18-watt charger, which can charge the device from 0-100% in about an hour and a half. On the other hand, the standard iPhone 11 comes with a 5-watt charger, which takes around three and a half hours to do the same task. This is a significant difference, especially for those who need to quickly recharge their phone.
The iPhone 11 Pro models also offer faster charging capabilities due to their higher-powered chargers. However, this advantage comes at a price, as the standard iPhone 11 will not be able to take full advantage of it. If you're in a pinch and need to charge your phone quickly, the iPhone 11 Pro models are the way to go.
In terms of display, the iPhone 11 has a lower resolution screen compared to the pro models. This means that it's not as sharp and doesn't have the same level of color accuracy. The pro models, on the other hand, feature OLED panels with higher resolutions and more vibrant colors. However, the iPhone 11 Pro models also offer Super Retina XDR displays, which can go even brighter than the standard display.
The display on the iPhone 11 is not bad by any means, but it's clear that it's not as good as what you'd get from some of the competition. For example, the OnePlus 7 Pro has a much higher resolution and a smoother 90Hz display for a similar price point. Ultimately, if display quality is important to you, the iPhone 11 Pro models may be the way to go.
Performance-wise, both the standard iPhone 11 and pro models use the same A13 Bionic chipset, which means they should provide smooth performance without any issues. However, it's worth noting that the pro models do have a slightly more powerful chip, which could give them a slight edge in terms of overall performance.
Water resistance is another area where the pro models have an advantage over the standard iPhone 11. The pro models are rated IP68, which means they can withstand being submerged in water up to four meters for 30 minutes. The iPhone 11, on the other hand, is only rated IP67 and can only be submerged in water up to two meters for 30 minutes.
In terms of design, the iPhone 11 Pro models have a new matte texture that's more resistant to fingerprints, but it's also slightly slippery. The standard iPhone 11 has a glossy finish that's easy to clean, but it's also prone to fingerprints. Ultimately, it comes down to personal preference when it comes to design.
The camera design on the back of the latest iPhones is another area where the pro models have an advantage. While I don't particularly like this design myself, some people may actually prefer it. The visible camera module gives it a unique look that's sure to turn heads. However, if you're not a fan of this design, there are other options available.
Overall, the main differences between the standard iPhone 11 and the pro models come down to charging speed, display quality, performance, water resistance, and design. While the standard iPhone 11 is still a great device, the pro models offer some significant advantages that may make them worth considering for those who want the best of everything.
"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enif you've ever felt jealous because your friends Android phone takes better pictures than your iPhone well you've had a right to feel that way because Apple has been lagging in the camera department losing out to competitors like Google's pixel and hallways p-series phones well that's all changing with the new iPhone 11 range there are some critical camera upgrades here that make it surpass the competition if not comparable so let's check it out walking down the street how are you gonna tell people that you have a new iPhone you don't need to because people will figure it out themselves after they see those giant bumps on the back of the phones that's the new upgrades here so let's talk about them there is a triple camera setup on the iPhone 11 pro and a dual camera setup on the iPhone 11 now the pro and the pro Macs are about the same exact phones the only difference is screen size and battery capacity the camera is actually exactly the same between the iPhone 11 and the pro models if the only difference is that the pro models have an extra telephoto lens the iPhone 11 which is succeeding the iPhone 10 R which had a single camera setup now is getting an ultra wide camera angle and that's actually what's new on the pro models which are succeeding the iPhone 10s and the 10s max which is also now getting that same exact ultra wide camera angle they still have the telephoto lens but the telephoto lens is also a little bit different there is now a wider aperture so it should take better low-light photos walking around with the iPhone 11 and the pro models I'm enjoying the extra versatility I'm getting with that telephoto lens on the pro models it's a two time zoom but it lets me vary up my shots and get closer to the subject that's something I can't do with the iPhone 11 without physically getting in someone's face but that's just something that I keep shifting back to the pro models for so it's something to consider if you're debating between the 11pro and the iPhone 11 before we talk about the ultra wide-angle camera let's touch on the main camera there are several image processing updates that Apple has added specifically to smart HDR which is now better than before and that should mean better photos in high contrast scenarios but I think my favorite part of using an iPhone camera is seeing the natural colors come through if you compare some of the results to the Galaxy Note template or the Google pixel 3 oftentimes those phones Bruce photos that are a little more saturated where you get a much more natural look especially with slightly warmer tones on the iPhone instead the killer feature here is night mode unlike other phones where it's a dedicated setting here it's something that happens automatically and you can toggle it to either choose the automatic setting where it will take a two to three second long exposure or you can have it go to the max which can vary depending on the situation whether the phone is on a tripod you can go from somewhere between a 10 second to 15 second long exposure and sometimes it can even take a 28 second long exposure if you're in a really dark environment and you're using a tripod I feel like before iPhones have been able to take pretty decent low-light shots but when you compare it to what the iPhone can do now it's a significant improvement and I feel like I actually want to share a lot of these photos whereas I was feeling that a lot more with Android phones that had dedicated night modes like all other night modes it is a long exposure so you do need to stay as still as possible to ensure that you're not getting a blurry shot how does it compare with night mode off versus night mode on and yes you can turn it off if you don't like it well photos are a lot brighter and there's a lot more detail as well but the key thing is that it also maintains a lot of those colors and more critically the ambience the Google pixels nitesite feature is really impressive because it can brighten up an image so much that it sometimes looks like it's daytime and also the ambience is a little ruined because it tries to aggressively adjust the white balance with the iPhone it doesn't really do any of that white balance adjustments there's some of it happening yes but ultimately you're still retaining a lot of what the environment is you're in so you're getting the same type of ambiance it's just a slightly brighter picture that allows you to share it online so that people can actually see what's in your photo I've been trying to compare the Google pixels nitesite with the iPhones night mode it's a little difficult because the pixel tries to decide for itself exactly how long the exposure should be how many shots it should take whereas there is a little more flexibility with the iPhone and letting you choose but I think in general going with the automatic to three-second exposure the pixel definitely delivers slightly better details but the iPhone retains better color however when you choose the max long exposure option for the iPhone I'm seeing pretty comparable detail but again the ambiance and color is definitely more natural on the iPhone one more thing on night mode it works with the telephoto lens on the pro model as well as the main sensor but it does not work on the ultra wide-angle camera for either models that's kind of a disappointment because not only are you getting a narrower aperture on the white ultra wide-angle camera lens you're also getting a slightly different sensor that's not as good as taking low-light shots as the main camera so all in all you're not going to get good ultra wide-angle shots on the iPhone because it doesn't support night mode and that's kind of a bummer onto the ultra wide-angle camera nothing really new we've seen ultra wide-angle cameras before on other phones but it's nice to see here adding that extra versatility so you can get in more of a scene in a single shot it takes really great shots in the day and Apple isn't doing much to curb the distortion that happens with ultra wide-angle lenses typically and that's for the effect of that feeling that you know this is an unusual perspective and it really allows for some creative looking shots it still suffers at night again because there is no night mode for the ultra wide-angle camera so that is a bit of a bummer what is disappointing about the ultra wide-angle camera is the fact that it is a fixed focus lens you have to be up to a meter away from the subject so that it's kept into focus which means that if you're trying to get close up to someone's face a subject or just generally whatever you are limited because the photo might not be in focus to be fair not a lot of other manufacturers offer this Huawei does but it's something that I wish across-the-board anyone who's adding an ultra wide-angle camera to their phone would allow it for not to be fixed focus the telephoto lens on the pro models is definitely better than the telephoto lens on the iPhone 10s series especially in low-light in particular I'm able to see photos that have more detail aren't as grainy when I'm taking photos a night portrait mode is definitely better on the xi range compared to last year's ten range particularly in low lights one thing to note though with the pro model now you can take portrait mode shots with the standard camera as well as the telephoto before it specifically let you take photos with the telephoto lens which resulted in kind of muddy looking portraits especially in low-light now it can choose between the main sensor as well as that telephoto lens so you're getting a little more versatility there with that iPhone 11 you can take portraits with just about anything as you can with the pro models it's not restricted to just faces anymore so you can take portrait shots of your dog subjects objects just anything really I think the quality of the portrait mode shots are definitely a lot better than some of the competition it is competing a bit here with the pixel three sometimes I'm seeing the pixel there's a better job of accurately mapping out a subject but the iPhone tends to go for more realistic blur effects so sometimes the hair of someone might still not be in focus whereas the face will be and that's trying to mimic a DSLR effect of different planes so you're not getting a flat subject that is completely InFocus like the pixel might provide whereas it's a little more nuanced on the iphone there is a new portrait lighting feature it's called high key mono and allows for some really cool shots but of course there are some issues that I've seen especially with outlining the subject sometimes it doesn't do it quite so correctly and messes up on the sides the selfie camera is getting a bump it's now a 12 megapixel sensor rather than the 7 megapixel previously and initially when you start up the camera to take a selfie you'll see that it is a little bit cropped in and it's taking a 7 megapixel photo but there's a little button that you can press to widen up the shot and that way it's more ideal for group photos or in general if you want to take in a little more of the scene behind you and that will be the 12 megapixel output but that's not all there's also this new feature called slow fees and slow fees allow you to take slow-motion selfies kind of a silly name but hey the effect is really cool and you don't really see slow motion on the front camera typically on a smartphone so it's kind of neat that Apple is adding it here and you can be really creative with the types of shots that you can take now with the selfie camera speaking of video there are improvements here on both the iPhone 11 and the 11 Pro models specifically you can shoot at 4k 60fps for even higher quality but there is also extended dynamic range it's the cinematic stabilization that's most impressive though when comparing it to the Galaxy Note in the iPhone video is a whole lot more smoother and this is still at 4k 60fps now so is the Galaxy Note m+ but it's a lot more shaky but the note 10 plus does have a super steady mode that allows for similar levels if not better stabilization and you can see that here compared to the iPhone video however super steady does reduce the quality of the video so it might not seem like there are that many changes to the camera coming from the 10 range but the changes that did happen are substantial enough that you're getting much higher quality photos especially particularly with low-light and now I feel like I can finally say the iPhone cameras are comparable if not slightly better than the rest of the competition particularly the Google pixel 3 that being said we're gonna have a pixel for really soon so it'll be interesting to see just how much Google can come out after a year of being the winner with the pixel 3 there are substantial battery upgrades Apple is claiming 5 hours more on the iPhone 11 Pro max which is 5 hours more than last year's iPhone 10s max it's four hours more with the iPhone 11 Pro over last year's iPhone 10s and it is one hour more with the iPhone 11 over last year's iPhone 10 R and we're still doing a little bit of battery testing to get you the final numbers but most people should be able to get a full day of use with these phones maybe two days if you use the phone really lightly but definitely a full day of use for medium to low users high users we got something for you I've been using the iPhone 11 a ton today taking lots of photos and videos and by 5:30 p.m. I hit 15% I might not sound great but again I'm using it an absolute amount much more than I usually do with most smartphones but it still manages to survive a full workday now if I had used the Google pixel 3 in a comparable amount of time it would definitely be dead by now so that's definitely a positive here but again something to note for people who really use their phones a lot those high performers you might need to charge your phone still at the end of the day and if you are a high-performing user definitely go for the pro models because now you're gonna get better battery life on either of those whereas last year it was the 10r that had better a battery life than the iPhone tennis and tennis max now speaking of the battery charging it is also a little bit different between the pro and the standard iPhone 11 the 18 watt charger is included in the box that's this little giant brick right here compared to the smaller brick that you get with the iPhone 11 now all three phones support fast charging it's just that Apple is not including the 18 watt charger in the box for the iPhone 11 you're only getting the standard little charge that you've always gotten this faster charge of the 18 watt charger is now included in the box for the pro models which means you'll be able to recharge your iPhone 11 Pro or 11 Pro max from 0 to 100% in about an hour and a half it still takes about three and a half hours to charge the iPhone 11 from zero to 100% that really sucks especially it also sucks when I'm trying to quickly run out the door my phone's running low and I want to quickly juice it up well the iPhone pro models will let you do that the iPhone 11 will slowly take a little bit of a charge and really won't get you much if you're trying to charge it quickly in a short amount of time so the good thing is it does support it so you might want to spend a little extra money to go out and buy that extra charger if you needed yet another reason to go for the pro models that would be the display the iPhone 11 has a much lower resolution screen so it's not as sharp and it's also LCD so you're not gonna get as inky blacks then you get with the OLED panels on the pro models that also means that color doesn't pop as much but more importantly the iPhone 11 won't get as bright as the pro models because it has a typical brightness of 625 nits when you max it all the way whereas the iPhone 11 pro and pro max will get you 800 nits when you max it up all the way but the iPhone 11 Pro models also have a Superettan X the are display that can go even further when you're watching HDR content specifically on Netflix for example it can go up to 1200 it's allowing you to see those really dark scenes pop out when you're watching shows like stranger things for example that being said I think most people will be pretty satisfied with what they get with the screen on the iPhone 11 just know that it's nowhere near the competition for example you can get a much higher screen resolution and a much smoother 90 Hertz display on the 1 plus 7 Pro for a little less than the price of the iPhone 11 I feel like I don't really need to touch on performance I haven't had any issues whatsoever running anything on either of these phones whether it's games from Apple arcade or high intensive apps like Lightroom just haven't had no issues whatsoever and again it's using the 813 Bionic chipset on both the iPhone 11 and the pro models as well one other thing that's an improvement is water resistance all three iPhones are now ip68 rated but there is still a distinction there the iPhone pro models are now able to be dipped under water up to four meters for 30 minutes and the iPhone 11 is able to go under water up to 2 meters for 30 minutes so a little distinction there but definitely should be safe to put these in a pool just for a short amount of time the other differences are you getting stainless steel on the pro models and aluminum on the iPhone 11 so not as durable but they're all still wrapped in glass so there's still a high chance of cracking them if you do an accidental drop the other distinction being the iPhone 11 pro models have a new matte texture that's more resistant to fingerprints although it is a little slippery err but that being said it's not the case with the iPhone 11 which has a glossy err texture more traditional glass and it is very much a fingerprint magnet yeah either love it or hate it and I'm talking about the camera design on the back of the new iPhones I don't particularly like it but it is growing on me but I feel like all Apple had to do for me to really enjoy the design is they could have just covered up the lenses with this sort of a black finish kind of like what we've seen on the huawei mate 20 or up what we're seeing with the upcoming Google pixel 4 renders that to me looks a lot nicer than making the camera module so visible and so out there that's the only thing I don't really like about the design here but again I am getting used to it and maybe you will too thanks for watching everyone don't worry we have a lot more iPhone content coming at you so let us know in the comments what you would like to see and otherwise like subscribe I hit that balfour notifications and head to Digital Trends calm for moreif you've ever felt jealous because your friends Android phone takes better pictures than your iPhone well you've had a right to feel that way because Apple has been lagging in the camera department losing out

wrapped in glass so there's still a high chance of cracking them if you do an accidental drop the other distinction being the iPhone 11 pro models have a new matte texture that's more resistant to fingerprints although it is a little slippery err but that being said it's not the case with the iPhone 11 which has a glossy err texture more traditional glass and it is very much a fingerprint magnet yeah either love it or hate it and I'm talking about the camera design on the back of the new iPhones I don't particularly like it but it is growing on me but I feel like all Apple had to do for me to really enjoy the design is they could have just covered up the lenses with this sort of a black finish kind of like what we've seen on the huawei mate 20 or up what we're seeing with the upcoming Google pixel 4 renders that to me looks a lot nicer than making the camera module so visible and so out there that's the only thing I don't really like about the design here but again I am getting used to it and maybe you will too thanks for watching everyone don't worry we have a lot more iPhone content coming at you so let us know in the comments what you would like to see and otherwise like subscribe I hit that balfour notifications and head to Digital Trends calm for more\n"
