iPhone 11 iPhone 11/Pro/Max reviews are out - Links inside [MERGED]

Really curious for the JerryRigEverything review. As long as the antenna doesnt suck as much as the XS one, I’m so far already happy with my purchase. If the glass is indeed more durable though, that would make the phone near perfect for me.

Yup, that’s the one. First appeared in iOS 12.4. Seems like a nice option. The inherent advantage vs iCloud restore is that no internet connection is needed. You can either do it wired between iPhones, or over wifi (the iPhones will create an ad-hoc direct wifi connection for the transfer).

Thanks. He made it seem like this was something new with the iPhone 11. Does it restore and repair your Apple Watch also?

Does this look like collor accuracy?View attachment 859209

It’s a camera taking a photo of a display of another camera for Christ’s sake (these are different exposures, and the camera taking that picture seems to be utter crap). If you look at comparison shoots you can clearly see that if there’s one category where the iPhone is superior all across the board, its color accuracy (which I personally appreciate a lot, since color grading can be a pain in the ass).

There’s an excellent reason - battery longevity. If you only charged overnight, why charge faster than necessary?

The OS already has a battery protection mode FWIW.

Of course all the comments on The Verge 11 Pro review said the Pro was the worst of all the camera shots. I wonder what they would have said if it was a blind test.

One thing I hate about these reviews is all the comparisons are to the previous year’s phone even though most people are not getting a new phone every year. Year over year improvements aren’t going to be huge any more. And does it even matter when people are keeping their phones for 2, 3 or even 4 years now?

Yup, during the transfer it asks if you’d like to transfer the watch over too:

“If you have an Apple Watch and you're setting up a new iPhone, you'll be asked if you'd like to transfer your Apple Watch data and settings. “

I know, and I don’t disagree. Maybe a 10W charger would be ideal in the box. Anyway I shouldn’t have brought it up, I feel like there’s already been long debates/discussions on MR about it lol. Should just enjoy the reviews and feedback in this thread.
 
I think the crazy thing to remember when watching The Verge's review is that they are already describing it as the best camera on a phone and Deep Fusion isn't even out. That's crazy. It will be interesting to see if this camera with Deep Fusion working will beat the Pixel 4 when it comes out next month.

Good question. I think the most important takeaway is though, that Apple has finally caught up and both Android and iPhone users get to finally enjoy great photo quality out of their small phone, without giving up their respective platform of choice. That should be something, that both Apple and Android fanboys should be happy about alike.

curious how well the night mode holds up when people aren't holding deadly still for 5 seconds. I assume its doing some stitching etc to get exposures lined up so it should withstand some movement but won't be perfect.

Because not everybody charges only overnight so now what?
Usage varies.
Some people might want a quick top of their battery before they go somewhere.

Why people are trying to defend the omission of a fast charger I dont know...

Didn’t see RAM amount posted but so far there hasn’t been a single shred of real evidence of 6 GB.


Yes that picture is horrible. I suspect this night mode feature will require multiple shots to get a good one, as is often true for everything in photography, and the feature may get better over time like portrait mode did.

Only the resellers advertising it and the certification documents showing it such as the ones for China.

Exactly. No real evidence. The resellers don’t get RAM specs pre-release for public display, and that so called Chinese “certification” site has nothing to do with Apple. As mentioned already, it’s a database for a third party reseller in China.

Also has been posted before, the resellers often post incorrect information pre-release, for data points that aren’t specifically listed in Apple’s specs. I suspect it’s just because the spot exists in the database so someone there decides to fill in the information with what they think is the best guess info.
