The iPhone 11 Pro and iPhone 11 Pro Max have officially been confirmed
<http://9to5mac.com/guides/iphone-11> by Apple, packing a new triple-lens
camera setup, a new matte design, and more. Here are some of the iPhone 11
Pro features and changes that may have slipped under the radar during the
Keynote event.
Here are some of the iPhone 11 Pro features glossed over by Apple:
* Water and dust resistant (IP68 up to 4 meters)
* Enhanced Face ID
* Brighter True Tone Flash
* Apple-designed U1 chip
* Spatial audio
* Night mode
* WiFi 6
* Fast charging
* Gigabit-class LTE
* Next-generation Smart HDR
* Toughest glass in a smartphone
* 1200 nits peak brightness display
* Display is 15% more energy efficient
In terms of overall form factor, the iPhone 11 Pro and iPhone 11 Pro Max are
generally identical to the iPhone XS - but with one change. The iPhone 11
Pro weighs in slightly heavier than the iPhone XS. Here's the comparison:
* iPhone 11 Pro - 6.63 ounces (188 grams)
* iPhone XS - 6.24 ounces (177 grams)
* iPhone 11 Pro Max - 7.97 ounces (226 grams)
* iPhone XS Max - 7.34 ounces (208 grams)
Where does that extra weight come from? Likely the battery. The iPhone 11
Pro offers up to four hours longer battery life than the iPhone XS. That
means you get up to 18 hours of vide playback, 11 hours of streaming, and 65
hours of audio playback.
Meanwhile, the iPhone 11 Pro Max offers five hours of additional battery
life compared to the iPhone XS Max. That gets you 20 hours of video
playback, 12 hours of video streaming, and eight hours of audio playback.
As reports prior to the Keynote event suggested, the iPhone 11 Pro series
drops the 3D Touch Pressure sensitivity feature. In lieu of 3D Touch, Apple
offer Haptic Touch. This means instead of pressure sensitivity, you
long-press on the display and you're given haptic feedback.
Many of the features that were originally reliant on 3D Touch, such as quick
actions on homescreen icons, are now accessible via Haptic Touch. This means
iPhone 11 Pro users shouldn't miss out on much in terms of functionality.
The iPhone 11 Pro and iPhone 11 Pro Max are available in four colors: space
gray, silver, midnight green, and gold. The new iPhones also feature a matte
finish, as opposed to the glossy glass finish of the iPhone XS.
As far as pricing goes, the iPhone 11 Pro starts at $999 for 64 GB of
storage. The iPhone 11 Pro Max starts at $1,099 for 64 GB. That comes out to
$41.62 per month or $45.79 per month, respectively.
Preorders will begin on September 13 at 5 a.m. PT, 8 a.m. ET. The new
iPhones will arrive to customers and be available in Apple Stores on
September 20.
