iPhone 11 Pro Long Term Review! By Nick Ackerman

So this is the iPhone 11 Pro, and I've had this phone for around five months now, the other day I covered the 11 Pro max, which is its bigger brother, but this one right here represents what I think is close to perfection well, at least for the everyday user. Let me explain why, in this video, so when talking about the key specs, the things I really want to cover the things I thought mattered, the most in the past five months, and that was the triple 12 megapixel camera here for the 11 Pro also I think this back material is quite nice, but we also have around a 3000 46 William hour battery. So this is not the largest battery on the market. Four gigabytes of RAM, but importantly, an apple, a 13 Bionic chip said that's a 7 nanometer chip. It's designed to last a very long time. Ok, so quickly, going over my long-term thoughts on the body and the size, so 5.8 inches has been a perfect sweet spot for a lot of people. It's no wonder why Apple has kept us around for three generations already so I, don't really have a problem with the size of 5.8, inches I. Think it's a good balance between a decently large display I mean it's not a large display, but it's not tiny either.

It also fits comfortably in the hand.188 grams gives this a little of a weighty feel if you're used to something like an iPhone 7 or you know an iPhone 8. This got some weight to it, so it feels a little chunky a little heavy if you're used to those smaller, lighter iPhones. But overall you know this textured back as I mentioned earlier. Just gives it a feeling like no other, and one thing I really loved about this- is that it just doesn't attract fingerprints. So that means this phone stays looking clean most of the time, and you cannot say that about so many other smartphones, which is one thing, I really love about this and of course, you know, I've been bragging a long time about the stainless steel I.

Just personally think it's beautiful to have stainless steel on a smartphone, so overall the body is just fantastic for this device. The only thing I really want to see go away with this phone is the notch and I think a lot of people could agree with me there, and I'm talking about display qualities. The first thing I have to mention is just the brightness on this phone, as I mentioned, when my 11pro max is ridiculous. Now, why do I say this is ridiculous. This is so bright if you accidentally trigger this thing.

At night, you're going to die, whoa, you're going to have to like to cover your eyes. It's so darn bright I mean and sunlight super easy to see this phone, and it's noticeably better than other iPhones. Now I do kind of miss 3d touch this little haptic feedback for the 11pro isn't perfect, but it works well enough, and I think you'll forget about 3d touch at brightness, just fantastic, and because this display is so small and has a high-resolution display over 400 PPI. This thing is incredibly sharp and definitely fits in with the super retina moniker. Now.

I also noticed that the colors are just a little more accurate than a lot of other phones out there, so if you're doing photo or video editing, this can be a really fantastic display for you. So, overall you know video watching because of the notch can get in the way. I have to say that I'm very happy with display and again, if that Naturals are moved, this will be a perfect display, in my opinion, okay. So when it comes to the software and I, don't want to go too in depth here, because you can't already know what iOS is by this point: I was 13. This is running the latest 13-point 3.1. As of the recording of this video, however, that's going to be upgraded soon to thirteen point four.

Now what can I say about software? Well, do I have any cons really with it and yeah. The only thing I'm really missing out here really wish Apple will put, is some type of split screen on this phone other than that, it's pretty fantastic, and you know some people say I want to move my icons wherever I want. I can agree to some standpoint, but would that actually make iOS look any better? It might actually clutter it up and make it look a little ugly compared to what you're used to with this clean look you have with iOS so on the whole 13 has been running great after a few updates that this phone got, and the camera got the deep fusion update. So everything you know, processes very well and gives you a very sharper than you know. You would even expect type of photo on here.

Overall, you know software is fantastic, and it's going to be updated for so many years to come that this is really not a risky investment if you want to buy the iPhone 11 Pro, except for the fact that this doesn't have 5g. Okay, so in terms of the performance of the iPhone 11, Pro I've done plenty of speed tests on this phone. You know the performance on here is just absolutely monster. A13 CPU, four gigabytes of RAM you know, is enough for iOS. However, I will state that Samsung does beat Apple here when it comes to you just a ram.

You definitely get some reloads on this phone if you have too much open at once, but really because you're not able to have many apps open at once. It really doesn't. Even you, don't really even notice it that much so yeah while they can reload. If you are a power user, you might notice this sometimes, but on the whole I find applications to just work pretty well and I. Don't really find too many reloads happening, but it can happen on occasion if you are really pushing it with many applications and storage.

Now, here's my take on storage I have been using this phone for a few months now, five months, and I'm, not out of storage, but that's mostly because I also use the 11pro Macs and I got the 256 gig. There I actually deleted some files on here, because I use like 47 gigs, just recording a few videos with the 11pro. So if you guys are buying this phone- and you have the intentions to do a lot of video, please do yourself a favor and get the 256 gigs and here's. What brings the iPhone 11 Pro near perfection? For me, not only do you have this really comfortable size, but you have this triple 12 megapixel camera setup. Now, in this setup, I will say that the main lens is actually the sharpest lens.

By far the ultra wide-angle is still a little blurry on the edges, and it could use some work, but this is a great first attempt and a telephoto is also not as good as the main camera. However, both lenses do look pretty good and the photos match up well, meaning the color rendition. Everything in terms of the results matches up very well, so when you're switching between lenses, you don't really notice it too much, however, which you will notice that the quality is just much better in the main lens, as you would expect. So, when taking photos here, you can see very fast, and this has been a pretty useful feature to hold this down for recording I like that. Also, if you go to the left, you can take burst photos and one of the great features about this iPhone 11 Pro is that you can frame.

When you take the photo, you can go grab. Some other part of the shot, if you want it to get more out of it, so that's pretty nice and changing your aspect ratios is fantastic for pros. Overall, though, that wide angle is really what separates this phone right here and that white angle can produce some lens flare. Sometimes, as you can see right there with the Sun also, it can be a little blurry, but in good lighting it looks almost like a GoPro which is fantastic for this phone now. That telephoto is also quite useful as well, but again doesn't look as sharp as the main lens.

One thing that got perfect for this phone is the selfie camera. It's so good. I mean the 4k 60 on the front gives this. You know it gives you a vlogging tool in your pocket. I mean you can record some amazing, video and people.

Do it all the time there's YouTubers all over the planet, making videos with their iPhone 11 Pro. Believe me: now you got video right here. You can go ahead, and you know hit 4k at 60 I like how you can just change the video right there. Of course, you have time-lapse. You have panoramic modes.

All the stuff you're used to here the Porsche modes all have been improved. This is the first time I can honestly say that the iPhone 11 Pro is one of the first iPhones. It's really becoming contender and allowing you to use your phone instead of an actual camera. People are saying to me. You know your video looks great when I shoot with this phone every single time and the only reason I'm still using an actual camera here is because of how easy it is to hook up microphones, as you can see up there and the fine-tuned control I can get over all the features.

So I would like to see a dedicated Pro Mode in the next iPhone. Instead of having to download a dedicated application that will be great and to make this even more Pro I really wish Apple would bring a mobile version of Final Cut Pro to their iPhones. So five months later, I also noticed something rather nice about this device. The speed at which Bluetooth devices connect as well as Wi-Fi, is fantastic. It's superfast on this device, the fastest I've ever seen on any iPhone, whatever I do have to mention that the cellular and Wi-Fi data on here, as I mentioned many times before it hasn't been great, and I've, been looking forward to this being improved in certain updates, but still, even with all the updates, this phone has gotten.

It still doesn't match up to you. The competitors out there, it just doesn't I'm, just I, just can't be dishonest and tell you that it does. But I don't want you to take this as oh. What if I get this iPhone 11 Pro I can't use the cellular data I can't make a call? No that's not what I'm saying what I'm saying is that you will just get simply more bars better reception on some competing phones out there, but I think that's gonna change this year with the newer iPhones, and so the last thing is the battery life. Now, for the size of this device, you were gonna, be absolutely shocked with the performance you get out of this battery 3046 seems like nothing, but this one actually performs comparable to me to a four thousand William hour, Android phone.

So what does this mean? This means you can go heavy on this phone and get through the day. Now, unlike the 11pro max, this one doesn't go two days, but you can go heavy on one day, definitely making it through the day. Now some people going to say no I, don't make it through, but they're. Probably gaming will destroy any phone's battery life. I'm talking about regular use, you know, opening up your social media apps doing some messages.

Making phone calls using the phone, like any person, would day-to-day it's going to make it along with that. Having support for fast charging and wireless charging has been pretty awesome for this device. I mean it's been on some other iPhones already, but it's still nice to have those features available for 11pro, and so that's the iPhone 11 peril long-term reveal. You can see I'm overwhelmingly positive, and I honestly believe this phone is a notch away from perfection like get rid of the notch and also get a little better. Cellular connectivity throw 5g in there.

I think Apple needs us more than ever, and you have a perfect smartphone. I mean adding a fourth lens will be awesome for this device. That's just adding to its are already a great device, and so my question to you is like what else could you want in a smartphone I mean like I, say this: this phone is almost perfection. Yes, it's not anything super exciting in terms of folding and doing something out of the norm, but it's Apple at their best. It's a refinement over a decade of smartphone for them.

So what do you guys think? Do you think that the iPhone 11 Pro is something you're going to buy soon? Are you waiting it out for the iPhone 12, or do you think that this phone is pretty great and that you just want to wait until they get a little better cellular data? You wait until they get rid of the notch. Let us know down below in the comments section of this video. Also, if you guys do have an iPhone, 11 Pro, please share with the community. You would think that, because I've made iPhone 11 Pro videos before that everyone has seen them. Sometimes people come to these videos, and it's their first time.

So your comments do make a difference. I really do appreciate that thumbs up if you enjoyed it subscribe. If you haven't already Nick you're open you to master, your technology, be sure to be well in peace.
