Hardly any device was as well known before its presentation as the new iPhone 11 Pro. As expected, it has now finally been released - yes, it has its distinctive square on the back.
Apple presented the iPhone 11 Pro and iPhone 11 Pro Max as part of its “By innovation only” keynote. Like their predecessors, the devices have an OLED display with 5.8 and 6.5 inches respectively. This is a Super Retina XDR screen. Both models have the A13 chip and no longer offer 3D Touch; instead, Haptic Touch is used. In terms of performance, the two models are the fastest smartphones currently on the market. The processor is said to be so efficient that the battery life benefits significantly, among other things. The iPhone Pro line is said to be able to run for a full four or five hours longer than its predecessors. While the iPhone 11 with the well-known 5-watt charger, the iPhone 11 Pro and 11 Pro Max will come with an 18-watt fast charger – finally! Face ID is also said to have been improved as part of the update - the new models can now recognize their users from multiple angles and unlock them much faster.
iPhone 11 Pro camera
Yes, the new triple camera actually comes in a square design – a bit strange but somehow special. Notice: Please remember the excitement surrounding the notch. Be that as it may. The new Pro camera now has an ultra-wide-angle, wide-angle and telephoto lens. The field of view of the ultra-wide-angle lens is around 120 degrees. The other two lenses have also been updated and strengthened as part of the innovation. The new night mode is of course also integrated into the iPhone 11 Pro line and significantly improves night shots - according to Apple. Of course, the front camera of the two premium smartphones has also been revised. It also now has 12 megapixels with wide-angle selfie support in landscape format. Videos can be recorded in 4k at 60 fps - a slow motion function is also available.
