"Apple has done it again" many will exclaim when they see this new iPhone that the Cupertino company has just launched. Most of the rumors that have been happening in recent months have been confirmed during the #AppleEvent that took place in San Francisco this September 10. QStay with us and get an in-depth look at the new iPhone 11, the Apple device that is destined to be the best seller everyone is waiting for. New colors, double sensor in the camera and certain characteristics that will not be without controversy, are you ready to meet the worthy successor of the iPhone XR?
A familiar design, brand of the house
We start with the design, the iPhone 11 has an aluminum body and a front identical to the iPhone XR, frames more pronounced than its Pro version and a total of 6,1 inches. He is not the largest, but he is not the smallest of the family either. We have the notch in the front that houses the Face ID, as well as a glass back that Shown in six colors: Red, Black, White, Yellow, Lavender, and Green. Apple says goodbye to coral and blue, the two best-selling iPhone XR models and personally the ones I liked the most.
As for the rear, its new square module with rounded corners, in which the two sensors predominate, the flash and the ambient sound microphone. A great camera module that seems to be the hallmark of the Cupertino company for the next few years and that has sown controversy, as almost always. You will like it more or you will like it less, but the new iPhone cannot be called "ugly", although the work on the front bezels could have been perfected.
Features: Reminds us too much of the iPhone XR
We start with the raw power, for this Apple has decided to mount the processor A13 Bionic 7nm and which claims to be the most powerful processor with integrated GPU on the market, and we do not question that. It is accompanied in turn by 4 GB of RAM to execute everything we need without the slightest problem. In a matter of storage we find three versions: 64GB, 256GB, and 512GB depending on our needs, Apple continues to be reluctant to the 128 GB of storage in the entry model, something that many expected.
- Storage: 64 / 256 / 512 GB
- Conference proceedings RAM: 4 GB
- Processor: Apple A13 Bionic 7nm
Regarding connectivity, the device has WiFi 802.11 a / ac / ad, better known as Latest generation WiFi 6. The connectivity Bluetooth 5.0 is kept in the previous version and you can not miss the NFC to take advantage of Apple Pay. Highlights water resistance with IP67 certification which also inherits from the iPhone XR, so we find ourselves with a very resistant and versatile phone, which is ready to become an easy way to access the iPhone range without the need to invest amounts above 1.000 euros.
Dual sensor with Ultra Wide Angle surprise
Much criticized was the iPhone XR camera, although later in the tests it showed that despite having a single sensor it was capable of capturing better photographs than the vast majority of devices available on the market. In this case Apple has chosen to include a double sensor in the 12 MP rear camera and each one with special characteristics, and one of them, far from offering a telephoto lens as many expected, captures photographs in Ultra Wide Angle mode of up to 120º .
- Rear camera dual: 12 MP, f / 1.8 with OIS + 12 MP, f / 2.4 Ultra Wide Angle 120º
- Capture of video: Up to 4K at 60 FPS with HDR
- Front camera TrueDepth: 12 MP with 3D TOF sensor
This is how this new iPhone, despite not having a telephoto lens, is going to get the most out of new software features such as the "Night mode" how much has been demanded by users. Apple offers computational photography and an image treaty thanks to the Smart HDR and the A13 Bionic processor that ensure excellent performance, this new feature has been called by apple as Deep Fusion, the iPhone takes different photos and merges them into one of the highest quality.
6,1-inch LCD screen, eternal criticism
If you have never used an iPhone XR you may think that Apple has returned to "scratch" including a panel 6,1-inch Retina Display on this iPhone 11, however the results are excellent and it is positioned as the best LCD panel of the market, with its pros and cons. The biggest counterpart is found in the frames, which offer a lower available screen ratio than their older brothers and that inherits completely from the iPhone XR, from which it does not differ at all in terms of screen.
As for the sound, Apple has mounted two stereo speakers on this occasion compatible with Dolby Atmos, so the quality and power of sound are more than assured. According to Apple, the sound is adjusted depending on what we are playing on the iPhone. Little more to highlight at the multimedia level, however, we once again highlight the absence of 3D Touch that seems to be completely replaced by Haptic Touch technology designed through software.
Release date and prices
The iPhone 11 will arrive in Spain from 809 euros, a price that will increase depending on the capacity that we choose and that represents a reduction of 50 euros compared to the iPhone XR that was launched last year for 859 euros. This will be available 20 next September at the points of sale, although it can be reserved from Friday, September 13 so that you do not run out of your unit.
- 64 GB - 809 euros
- 128 GB - 859 euros
- 256 GB - 979 euros
I have no doubt that this iPhone 11 is destined to become the best seller Apple despite having dispensed with blue and coral, from my point of view the most beautiful on the market.
