iPhone 11 Pro - Long Term Review By Kevin The Tech Ninja

Hey, what's up guys Kevin the tech ninja here and over the past month, I've been using the iPhone 11 Pro and the iPhone 11 side-by-side, and now that the month is over I settled in, and I'm actually using the iPhone 11 Pro Macs, although the 11 Pro non max, is better in the hand and makes everything easier. I did miss a screen real estate when I was doing things like playing games and watching video, but even then, with all my testing I found myself going back to the iPhone 11 just because it was easier to hold in the hand and I think it's the perfect size now that I came to this revelation. I really think is hard to make it a point to tell someone to spend more money on the pro version of it. This is the iPhone 11 Pro, Apple's, the latest flagship I won't go over specs and discuss all the things that you most likely already know. Let me talk about the experience and things that I've run into over this month of using the phone. So, yes, the phone is expensive, starting at $9.99, or you can tack on an extra hundred bucks for the Macs and take it from me.64 gigabytes is not enough. The last iPhone I bought was 64, gigabyte and I switched over to it.

To be my main phone, and I was always fighting with spatial issues, because I'm taking pictures, I'm doing video and I always just ran out of space. So with that being said, you need to upgrade to the 256 gigabyte variant and that one will tack on another $150. So in total, the purchase for my iPhone that I use every single day is twelve hundred and forty-nine dollars or eleven. Forty-nine. If you want the smaller version and that's a lot of money to be asking someone to pay for a phone, whereas the eleven is a much cheaper phone, and you can actually get 128 gigabytes, which is a happy medium from 64 to 256, also starting at $700 or 749.

If you want the extra space, it's really hard to justify spinning all that money for a phone, that's almost the same quality. So if I didn't convince you to get the 11 / the pro, let me tell you my experiences with the iPhone 11 Pro, the iPhone 11 Pro has a matte design with a gloss Lynne housing on the back, whereas the eleven is the reverse. It has a gloss body and a matte lens housing and a big shout-out to my sponsor brand. Both of these phones can have a deep brand skin, so you can essentially get whatever color you want, and even if it's not glossy, it still isn't super easy to hold hit the links down below to brand your device. As I mentioned, the pro does come in two different sizes, five point: eight or six point: five on the Macs, the display is called super Retina MTR OLED, which is fancy talk for Olin.

A simple way to put OLED turns off pixels that are supposed to be showing black, which in turns gets you a deeper black in the contrast in comparison to color is much greater. So, overall, you get a better picture and most flagship phones has this technology these days, so Apple isn't doing anything different, but Apple's iPhone 11, the non-pro version doesn't have OLED. But to me, it actually looks just as good. The screen is very bright, and the colors are great, and I think it's on par with some displays out there, and that goes for the pro version too. Both of these screens look very similar now side by side.

You will see the advantage of OLED when you compare the two phones, but at the end of the day, most people will not even notice the difference. Now the screen packs in a ton of specs. So you have things like HDR, Dolby Vision. You have a wide color gamut, but all that means is that the screen looks good, no matter what circumstance you're looking at, and that is true for both phones' performance is great. As expected, gaming running apps everything is fast.

Also, battery life is great I, don't even think about battery day today, by the time I go to bed I'm still at around thirty-five to forty percent of battery life heck just last week, I was out of town and I didn't consider a battery life as a thing. Normally I have like a spare battery bank or I, have a battery case or something like that. What I'm not gonna, be home at night, but I just went and didn't even think about it. All now, the main draw of the pro over the regular 11 is gonna, be that extra focal length. So the pro gives you three lenses.

You have a 13 millimeter ultra-wide, a 26 millimeter wide and a 52 millimeter telephoto. The 52 millimeter lens is the one that the iPhone 11 doesn't half, and I find myself using the ultra-wide lens more than the 2x lens I. Don't even use the 2x lens, often at all, so the two excellence is something I can live without and beyond that there isn't anything different with the cameras. The stabilization is perfect on all three lenses here are some clips. I shot handheld with no additional gimbals or software adjustments now for video.

Obviously it's not perfect. There are times when you switch lenses. Where does a digital zoom? Then it switches over to optical. So when you initially do a zoom in it's not as crisp as it would be using that extra lens and then a few seconds later it snaps in using the right lens, so that can be a little awkward when you're, recording video and switching lenses on the fly. But beyond that minor little inconvenience right there I think everything else is great portrait mode for the most part is a hit, but there are a little of misses.

So after the picture, you can adjust the f-stop to make it a perfect picture. So my son has very thin hair because he's 10 months old, and the phone has issues with it. Sometimes it sees it as background and not foreground, but in settings I'm able to adjust the f-stop and I can get everything back in focus. Now Apple did pay attention to people with glasses because before, if you had glasses, you do a portrait shot, it will make the glasses in focus, but your face out of focus. They did fix that.

So you could take a picture with glasses, and it counts that as part of your face, and it does a good job at blurring out the background. I will say, even though the camera isn't perfect, it's pretty darn close. There is software, that's built into the phone and also third-party apps. That allows you to get some flexibility out of this camera that you don't see on other devices. So take a look at this app retouch I'm able to literally remove things out of the picture like wow, that's pretty cool.

Do you have focus which allows you to adjust the focus after you take the picture so in this example, my son, with the wispy hair I'm, able to move the focus back a little and then still maintain that shallow depth of field, while keeping everything I want in focus? So not much else has changed on the hardware side of things, software we do have iOS 13 and the rollout has been pretty buggy to be quite honest, but they're fixing things as we go along in believe things will continue to get better, but I will update you guys in about six months on that, but anyways the iPhone 11 Pro is amazing, but the price compared to the eleven just isn't worth it. I think the iPhone 11 is the biggest competition to the iPhone 11 Pro, and that you consider that price there's no reason to buy the iPhone 11, Pro being quite honest, so anyways for those people out there that need to have that 2x zoom, and you want the largest screen possible. Then, of course the iPhone 11 pearl is gonna, be the choice, but I think for majority users, just having a great iPhone with the newest chip, the newest OS and still a really great camera, and then that wide-angle lens I think that's gonna, be the winner for most people anyways guys. Those are my thoughts want to know what yours are sound off down below Kevin. The tech ninja here have a great day.

Peace.
