Apple iPhone 11 Overview
The iPhone 11 comes with a 6.1-inch 60Hz Liquid Retina HD display with Dolby Vision support at the front of the dual-SIM iPhone 11. Apple’s affordable 2019 phones come with the 7nm A13 Bionic chip, a 64-bit six-core chipset accompanied by 4GB of LPDDR4X RAM.
There was gigabit class LTE advanced and Wi-Fi 6 connectivity, as well as ultra-wideband support for spatial awareness. The iPhone 11 came with 64GB, 128GB, and 256GB of native storage. There's dual SIM functionality as well, covered by physical nano SIM and eSIM.
Unlike the iPhone XR, the Apple iPhone 11 arrived with a dual camera at the back, consisting of a 12MP F2.4 ultra-wide and a 12MP F1.8 wide-angle camera with optical image stabilization and digital zoom.
There's also next generation Smart HDR with extended dynamic range support, which supports 4K video recording at up to 60fps, has automatic night mode, burst mode, Live Photos, and Deep Fusion AI and machine-learning thanks to A13 Bionic.
Portrait mode gives out an advanced bokeh look with various modes, like high key mono, low key mono, stage mono, etc. The ultra-wide front camera weighs in at 12MP as well.
Battery-wise, the Apple iPhone 11 arrived with a 3,110mAh battery with up to 18W fast wired charging and up to 7.5W Qi wireless charging.
Wireless charging was notably slower than the regular one. It had a great battery life, outpacing multiple contemporary rivals. The phone charged through a Lightning connector, and fast charging was available with the supplied power adapter and Lightning cable.
Thanks to the Apple ecosystem, this iPhone plays well with other Apple products, like the Mac OS computer system, Apple Pay, watch OS, and more. The device came with version 13 of the iOS operating system.
The iPhone 11 reiterated the notched design that was started with the iPhone X and iPhone XR, with the notch housing the selfie camera, ambient light sensor, one of the stereo speakers, and the Face ID TrueDepth camera sensor which is used for unlocking and Apple Pay authentication.
It was also the last iPhone generation to feature the rounded glass-aluminum sandwich design. Thankfully, the phone is also IP68-rated for water and dust resistance. Thanks to Face ID, this Apple iPhone supported Apple Pay.
This Apple iPhone was available in Black, White, Purple, Yellow, Green, and Product (RED) colors.
