iPhone 11 - A New Star is Born

This year’s iPhone 11, instead of being a successor to the iPhone XR, seems to be a younger sibling of the new iPhone 11 Pro and iPhone 11 Pro Max.

Frankly, the OLED display does not matter till the time you have used it. Apple’s dual-camera setup with a wide-angle and ultrawide angle has the same sensors minus telephoto lens as on the premium models. You might argue that Android phones have started featuring quad-camera setup at ₹10,000. While the iPhone 11 continues to feature just two, the focus in on quality over quantity.

Design: iPhone 11’s is still made of aluminium with the glass at the back. Slightly bigger than the iPhone 11 Pro, the 11 continues with the 6.1-inch LCD (liquid retina display) with thick bezels. The wide notch at the top incorporates the True-depth camera and sensors powering the secure FaceID. The placement of the SIM tray, volume controls, lightning port and speakers continue to be the same. But the rear is an all-new story. The glossy rear with support for Qi-based wireless charging has got a small squarish module housing the camera on the top left. However, the glossy rear attracts a lot of fingerprints. There is a slight bump in water resistance too; IP68 is submersible in up to 2-meter water till 30 minutes.
