What To Expect From The New iPhone 11 Series

These new iPhones make taking a bad picture almost impossible.

September 20 was a big day for Apple as they released three new iPhones that are changing the game -  the iPhone11, iPhone11 Pro and iPhone 11 Pro Max. Here is everything you need to know about the newest additions to the iPhone family.

Price point is probably one of the biggest determining factors of whether or not you’re taking a new phone home. The iPhone 11 retails for $699, the iPhone 11 Pro retails for $999 and the 11 Pro Max retails for $1,099. Apple is promoting trade-ins of previous models to lower the cost. You can trade in an iPhone 8 Plus or iPhone X and get the iPhone 11 for just $400.


Although the iPhone 11 series do not look much different than the iPhone X, the camera system sets them apart. Apple has introduced a new dual-lens camera in the iPhone 11 and triple-lens in the iPhone 11 Pro, an improvement over the previous single-lens camera. The camera setup features a standard wide-angle camera and a new ultra wide-angle camera with a 120 degree field of view in both phones. 

Unlike the iPhone 11 Pro and Pro Max, the iPhone 11 does not have a telephoto camera lens. According to Apple, the ultra wide-angle camera captures four times more scene, making it perfect for landscape photos, tight shots and more. With the newest portrait mode, pets and objects are supported. So yes, you can get amazing portrait photos of your furry pup! 

New camera features in both phones include 2x optical zoom out, digital zoom up to 5x and a new night mode that is designed to capture clear and bright photos even in low lighting conditions. The iPhone 11 and iPhone 11 Pro introduce QuickTake, a new feature that lets you record videos without switching out of photo mode. 

And just when you thought the camera could not get any better, the iPhone 11 series has coiled a new term - the “slofie,” slow motion selfie. The camera’s design and capability is probably one of the biggest differences in the new iPhone series. 

The iPhone 11 is available in six colors: black, white, red, purple, green, and yellow. These light colors give off a 90s vibe. The iPhone 11 also features a new anodized aluminum finish, which Apple says is more durable.The iPhone 11 Pro and Pro Max are available in gold, midnight green, silver and space gray. 

It is clear that one of the biggest changes in the iPhone 11 series is the camera system, but these new iPhones also come with longer battery life - an extra hour in the iPhone 11, extra 4 hrs. in the iPhone 11 Pro and extra 5 hrs. in the Pro Max. According to Apple, this series include their most water resistant phones yet. 

There are several changes in the new iPhone 11 series - camera, battery life, size and weight, display (5.8 inch, diagonally, in the iPhone 11 and 6.5 inch, diagonally, in the iPhone 11 Pro),  capacity, water resistance and the A13 Bionic 7-nanometer chip. According to Apple, this is the fastest chip ever in a smartphone with 20 percent faster CPU and GPU than the A12.

With an iPhone 11 and especially an iPhone 11 Pro or Pro Max, taking a bad photo is almost impossible.
