iPhone 11 Pro Max - Review After 48 Hours! By Dom Esposito

What's going on everyone, this is DOM, and today we're talking about my first 48 hours with the iPhone 11 Pro Max and I have to say this thing is pretty damn phenomenal. So let's talk about some of the things that I really, really like about the iPhone 11 Pro. First off we're going to jump into camera, because that is a big one for me, anyways and I, assuming for a lot of people out there that buy iPhones, because, typically speaking, they have some pretty darn good cameras on them. So, admittedly, when I first saw this triple camera set up in the renders and stuff like that, like everybody, you just always think. Oh man, this thing looks terrible, but once you get it in hand, this trifecta this little square right here actually looks pretty nice I think they did a pretty good job, making it look clean and balanced. Now, I can't see the same thing for the iPhone 11 because.

It still just looks a little weird having the same square, but only two lenses on one side. Anyway, that's a different topic for a different video, but the cam performance on this is pretty awesome. Now. One thing I do want to address on the back of the iPhone 11 Pro. Is that ultra wide-angle lens, because that thing is freaking awesome and before all of Android people jump on me, I know: I've used Y, ultra wide-angle lenses on other smartphones before too and I like them just as much, but I just think it's nice to see I phone have one of these.

Now it's not the greatest camera. In all conditions, like definitely by no means is the ultra wide-angle lens one. You should use all the time, but it does have very specific awesome uses might I, add and one of those videos the one thing that I do like about the wide-angle lens on the back of the eye 11pro max or the pro is just that I'm like I'm literally holding this. Maybe a foot and a half away from my face, and you can see the whole environment and I don't have to use like a special lens or anything like that. I can just bring my iPhone with me.

I don't even have to use a front-facing camera, because I know that it's facing me, but I'm, all in the shot. Furthermore, I, don't worry about Franco. Now, obviously, like I said it's not the best in all conditions, and definitely one of those conditions. It's not the best in is when it comes to low-light performance, especially for video, not not the greatest, but once you step on just white, it actually works out. Okay, so I'm a big fan of the wide angle lens.

Nonetheless, it is pretty freaking awesome and let's talk about night mode as well, because that is a definitely game changer for iPhone all around I. Think night mode works exceptionally well and I. Just there's really not much more to say about it. It is does, and I hate to use this phrase just to work. Obviously, night mode is amazing, especially when you compare it to stuff that the iPhone 10s would spit out the 11pro.

Definitely does it good if you want to see some full resolution. Images that I shot with the iPhone 11 Pro I will definitely be sure to leave a link in the description for you to a gallery where you can do so, but overall, fantastic camera here. One thing I do happen to really like about this phone here is the fact that we have 4k video on the front facing camera like I. Think that that's awesome, we finally can shoot 4k video on the front camera, so you don't have to your know, use the backside if you don't want to you still get that same quality. Along with that, we do have slow-motion video on the front camera as well.

It's its not something that I've really felt. The urge to take advantage of hmm I should take a slow fee first, slow fee. No second, okay, it's pretty cool, but it's just not something that I'm drawn to. So let's talk about a couple of things surrounding the front of the phone first off face, ID is improved, and that is not an exaggeration like face. I'd is stupid.

Fast I will take face ID on the iPhone 11 Pro over any fingerprint sensor. Any day all day even touch ID it just it puts everything to shame. The thing is instant, like literally instantaneous, and you're, not sacrificing the security as well, because it is, I think more secure than a lot of other faces. I'd captures on other phones, but that is a whole different thing to talk about. We also do have an update to the display here now.

This is a six point. Five inch display and it's pretty awesome. It has a resolution of 24 26 by 11 25, and it also features a 2 min to 1 contrast ratio. It has 800 minutes of brightness and 1200. Furthermore, it's a brightness for HDR, it's just pretty dang awesome all around now.

One thing: I did notice, and obviously I knew about this in keynote, but using it day to day right, there's no 3d touch anymore. That is rest in peace that is gone, but we do have to touch like we saw on the iPhone, 10 art. It turns out that it's I mean more or less is just as good, like I use, 3d touch for little things here and there and the places that I do use it. I didn't notice really too much of a difference not having it there. It was one of the reasons why I continued to use the 10s max over the 10r, because I did like some of those things, but it just it works fine.

In my opinion. Now, let's talk about the design here for a second, some people are like: oh I, don't like the camera thing, or it doesn't look different enough. I think that it's pretty cool I mean I, really really really do like the textured matte finish on the back. I think that is a very classy touch, and I've I've liked it on other phones before it looks exceptional on the iPhone as well. Furthermore, I think it's good all around, but real quick, while we're talking about design I want to give a shout-out to ESR for sponsoring the channel.

Furthermore, I talked about this case in my previous cases, in accessories video. This is the mimic tempered glass case. Yes, there's tempered glass on the back of this case, and we have a rubber bumper around this and it just it gives you a premium feel like in your hand with the glass on your fingers. You know I think it makes a difference and then also we have the rubber bumper to add some grip to that as well. I do also have their screen protector on here as well.

Honestly, both of these are must-have pickups. If you have an iPhone, 11:11, Pro or 11 Pro max I will leave a link below for you if you want to check out this case or the screen protector for yourself. So let's talk about the performance right, and we have the 13 Bionic chip inside here I mean obviously, when you first take a phone out of the box, especially an iPhone for the first, while it's pretty dang fast I mean this is a fast chip, there's little things that are happening in the background that you'll never fully comprehend or grasp, because it's happening without you knowing that uses the performance in this chip, but on the other side of that I mean I'll, take a faster chip right like that's. That's, okay with me, but I. Think I'm going to have to kind of look at this long-term and see how that works out now in terms of performance when it relates to battery life.

I think that you're, getting the best of both worlds here, stupid, fast phone and also very, very good battery life like this definitely far out lasts. My iPhone 10s max like without a doubt, I, definitely think that this is a winner all around in the battery life Department. With that battery life, I mean Apple actually did a bold thing. This year they made the phone a little thicker to put a bigger battery inside it like. Thank you.

Whoever out there is listening, because I will take a thicker phone with a bigger battery all day long now, when it comes to recharging that battery- oh, my goodness, oh my, they finally included a fast charger in the box. It's about damn time right. We have the 18 watt, USB type-c wall charger that you actually with the iPad Pro, and also you get the USB type-c 2, lightning cable. So you can actually fast charge. This thing, which is awesome like finally I, am so happy about that.

But it's definitely something we should have had. Quite a while ago now, I picked up the 256 gigabyte model of the 11 Pro max I'm kind of shocked that they actually sell a 64 gigabyte version of this phone, especially you know, Phil Schiller was on stage saying Pro like we were having a drinking game going on, but I don't I pick up the 256 version, because I looked at my 10s max, and I was like 81 gigabytes of storage. So I was in that awkward spot worked, one 28 would make sense, but 64 doesn't someday when they put micros card expansion in the iPhone, the heavens will rise and all the people will sing in a choir of glory I. Just we finally got the fast charger right now. Aside from you know, all the hardware upgrades that we have here, we got a new camera.

We got a better display. We have a nice matte finish on the back. Furthermore, we got a fast charger in the box. Things like that. I think that one of the more noticeable feature upgrades to this phone is not actually an upgrade to this phone instead upgrade to a lot of phones.

I, like iOS 13. A lot now I'm not going to make this a video about iOS 13 and how great it is. But there are a lot of features included in that. If you haven't seen some new features with I was 13. I will leave my video linked below for you, but it's got a lot going on.

I mean it definitely makes the phone a better phone like you could upgrade your 10s max to iOS 13 and have a very, very similar experience, maybe not the ultra wide-angle, maybe not the battery life etc. But Iowa's 13 is a big part of the iPhone 11 Pro, but here's the thing with the pro name- and this goes for any phone- that's added pro to their name. When I buy a piece of pro equipment like the camera, I'm shooting on right now, I definitely plan to keep it around for a while. You know three to five years, maybe something like that until something substantially better comes along, but Apple and all these other companies they push out phones every year. So is the next phone going to be Pro her than this one I mean we're not talking about pro equipment, we're talking about a label, that's put on a phone that makes it more desirable, I guess to the public.

It's the 11pro, not the 11, it's better than the 11, because it's pro right, the whole pro thing kind of it's just getting a little tiring at the end of the day, but I don't know, I want to know what you think about the iPhone 11 Pro or 11 Pro Macs in the comment section below and if you enjoyed this video leave it a thumbs up and also, if you're new around here, subscribe to the channel and don't forget to hit the notification bell so that you can be notified when new videos like this drop in the future.
