This iPhone features a Six-Core 2.66 GHz 64-bit Apple A13 Bionic processor with Quad-Core graphics, Apple M13 motion coprocessor, 4 GB of RAM, 6.5″ Super Retina HD OLED display with True Tone, GPS, 4G / LTE data capability, dual-SIM support through a nano-SIM and an eSIM (Apple SIM), four colors; Space Gray, Silver, Gold, and new Midnight Green, 64 GB / 256 GB or 512 GB of flash memory, Wi-Fi 6 – 802.11ax, Bluetooth 5.0, NFC for Apple Pay, Lightning port, nano-SIM slot, Three rear 12 Mpix cameras with Wide, Ultra Wide and Telephoto lens system / 12 Mpix front camera with TrueDepth camera system for facial recognition called Face ID, three-axis gyro, accelerometer, Barometer, Qi inductive charging, and IP68 for water resistance and dust resistance.
The iPhone 11 Pro and Pro Max both have an A13 Bionic processor. Both phones have three internal storage options: 64 GB, 256 GB, and 512 GB, and have 4 GB of RAM. Both models are rated IP68 water and dust resistant and are resistant for 30 minutes at a depth of 4 meters.
Also, like previous iPhones, both phones do not have a headphone jack and come with wired EarPods with a Lightning connector. The 11 Pro is the first iPhone to be sold with an 18-watt fast charger in the box as opposed to the 5-watt charger in the iPhone Xs and previous iPhones.
The iPhone 11 Pro has a 5.85 inch (marketed as 5.8-inch) OLED display with a resolution of 2436 × 1125 pixels (2.7 megapixels at 458 ppi), while the iPhone 11 Pro Max has a 6.46 inch (marketed as 6.5-inch) OLED display with a resolution of 2688 × 1242 pixels (3.3 megapixels at 458 ppi).
Both models feature a Super Retina XDR Display with a 2,000,000:1 contrast ratio and a notch at the top for the TrueDepth camera system and speaker. Apple describes the display as having a “mini Apple Pro Display XDR” on a phone. They also have a True Tone and wide color display supporting HDR with 800 nits of standard brightness and 1200 nits peak brightness if necessary.
The screen has an oleophobic coating that is fingerprint-resistant. The display of the iPhone 11 Pro and iPhone 11 Pro Max is made by Samsung.
The iPhone 11 Pro and Pro Max both include a triple-lens 12 Megapixel rear camera array. There is one ƒ/2.4 ultra-wide-angle lens with a 120-degree field of view and 2x optical zoom out, one ƒ/1.8 wide-angle lens, and one ƒ/2.0 telephoto lens with 2x optical zoom in. There is a burst mode, image stabilization, HDR, and a portrait mode supporting an advanced bokeh effect.
The phones support a Portrait Mode supporting depth control and an advanced bokeh effect. The phone also has an automatic Night Mode allowing the camera to take brighter pictures with reduced noise in low light environments. There is also a redesigned camera app that adds new features such as a scroll wheel for choosing between the different lenses and long-pressing the shutter button to take a video.
Apple has also announced a new Deep Fusion feature which will take advantage of AI and machine learning for image processing.
The iPhone 11 Pro supports 4K video up to 60 fps and 1080p slow motion at up to 240 fps. However, Apple limits the full range of zoom (0.5x -6x) while shooting in 4K at 60fps to either 0.5x – 1.5x or 1x to 2x depending on which lens is selected upon recording. All other resolutions/frame rates support the full zoom set. The phone also features an audio zoom feature which focuses audio on the area that is being zoomed in on.
All of the cameras support video although only the wide and telephoto come with optical image stabilization. Video can be captured with multiple cameras at the same time, through the multi-camera recording feature.
Both models also have a 12 Megapixel TrueDepth front camera with a ƒ/2.0 aperture. The front camera also supports stabilized 4K video recording up to 60fps. Apple has added slow-motion video recording to the front camera in 1080p at up to 120 fps, a feature which Apple refers to as “selfies”. Similar to previous iPhone models, the TrueDepth system is also used for Face ID and Animoji.
This smartphone has been discontinued on October 13, 2020, and has been replaced by the iPhone 12 Pro Max.
