IPhone 11 series review: more shots bring these happiness

I like to watch you scold the thieves and buy them honestly iPhone 11.

Today, the iPhone 11 series officially sold for the first time. How many friends couldn't resist snapping up? Bought mobile phone Our friends should not panic. First of all, we will give you a reassurance. We are not here to pour cold water on you.

Whether the iPhone 11 series is good or not, it can be said that new products are really rare, even though the appearance design of this product and the lack of 5G support are slightly embarrassing. But if you don't care about these problems, the iPhone 11 series is definitely a very good choice.

IPhone 11 Series

Of course, this conclusion is not based on imagination, nor is it because of Apple's reputation, but because of the experience of real machines. It is obvious that, iPhone 11 Pro Max's hardware doesn't look like it is worth 10000 yuan, but these parts are saved by Apple, and after various optimizations, they bring the user's experience or further satisfaction, which is really worth the price.

If you care, I bought it for more precise attack

01 Appearance borrows a word called "design gives way to function"

We have to talk about it out of the way of beauty and ugliness... Bah, ugliness is ugliness.

At first, the appearance design of the iPhone can become the wind vane of the industry, which has triggered repeated imitations. The industry aims to become the next Jobs. However, as the era of Steve Jobs is fading away, the design of iPhones from generation to generation always makes people lose a touch of flavor. The iPhone 11 series even more demonstrates a good play of eating the old tricks.

IPhone 11 series front design

Exactly speaking, the iPhone's bangs full screen design is three generations——

initial iPhone X : This design is a bit interesting. The screen occupies a high proportion;

Next year's iPhone XS : After all, the slightly upgraded version of the previous generation is understandable;

This year's iPhone 11 Pro: Apple You Can

There are obvious changes on the back, such as the layout of the camera, but the acceptance of netizens can be imagined, most of them are ugly. After all, the design of ladder+ladder is a bit weird whether you look at photos or see objects in your hand.

But to say that the iPhone 11 is not designed carefully is actually a bit wrong for Apple——

The three-dimensional glass panel on the back of the new machine is cut from a whole piece of glass. Maybe Apple's intention is to make a difference, or to create the integration of the camera image system and the body. In addition, the center point of the lens opening approximately forms an isosceles triangle, so even if this aesthetic acceptance is not high, it can also give a sense of order.

iPhone 11 Pro

I believe careful friends have found that the surface of the glass back shell of the iPhone 11 series has been specially treated with fog etching, which is popular in the current flagship machine. The iPhone 11 is fogged at the camera position, while the iPhone 11 Pro and 11 Pro Max are fogged outside the lens. In addition to enhancing the recognition of different models of products, the latter's fuselage is also less likely to be contaminated with fingerprints.

In addition, the glass panel of iPhone 11 has been strengthened by the double ion exchange process at the molecular level. In general, the glass has better fall resistance and scratch resistance. The iPhone 11 is still made of frosted aluminum alloy middle frame, while the iPhone 11 Pro and 11 Pro Max are made of stainless steel. The matte and bright collision between the natural and seamless middle frame and glass brings outstanding visual effects.

So we have to say that the iPhone is a product designed with heart, but we have to admit that it is a product whose shape runs counter to the public aesthetic. Later, I found such a word on the Internet to describe the design of iPhone 11, which is very suitable: "design gives way to function". As long as the function is powerful, design can be sidelined.

However, in fact, the appearance of the iPhone 11 Pro has become the target of public criticism more because of its high price. Consumers' psychological perception is that such an expensive product is still so ugly. In contrast, even if the iPhone 11 has a moving frame, the lower price will make it a real fragrance.

If the iPhone 11 sells for 3000 yuan, does it have no border at all?

02 One glance and one ear improvement of screen and speaker, a little sad victory

Is there OLED and dual speakers on the 1000 yuan console? Please turn 360 degrees into the trash can.

Outstanding audio and video effects of iPhone 11 series

Some friends may think that the screen and dual speakers are the least worth mentioning. After all, there are many OLEDs and dual speakers on 1000 yuan computers. But the difference is that the experience of high-end goods and low-end goods is clear at first sight. Take the dual speakers of iPhone 11 for example, the new Dolby sound effect can be said to bring about an improvement. Not to mention the 1000 yuan machine with dual speakers as a gimmick, even some flagship machines with this feature are hard to match.

iPhone 11

iPhone 11 Pro

Needless to say, the screen of iPhone 11 is 326ppi, which remains unchanged for thousands of years, but the LCD screen precision display is not excessive. On the other hand, the OLED screens of iPhone 11 Pro and 11 Pro Max have improved their display effects on the premise of more power saving: the brightness can reach up to 800nits, the HDR resources can reach up to 1200nits, and the contrast ratio of 2000000:1 has doubled compared with the previous generation. In other words, the color expressiveness that can be enjoyed in iPhone 11 Pro and 11 Pro Max is almost impeccable.

Haptic Touch Management software

Unfortunately, 3D Touch has been canceled for all iPhone 11 series and replaced by Haptic Touch, which is awakened by long pressing. The original 3D space interaction has been reduced to plane interaction, and the efficiency of calling out shortcut menus has been reduced. At the same time, Apple users cannot enjoy the convenience of pressure shooting in the chicken eating game. But the problem is that this cannot be the reason why you don't buy an iPhone, because similar pressure interaction has long disappeared in the Android camp.

Apple did not give the exact reason for canceling 3D Touch. Some people said that it was because the user utilization rate of the feature was extremely low, or the hardware cost was reduced to improve profits. Others said that it was because the screen was thinner to enhance the endurance. However, no matter what the reason, the cancellation of 3D Touch always gives a feeling that the arrogant Apple is gradually becoming mediocre. Of course, the decline in the price of the iPhone 11 may also be evidence that Apple is bowing to sales.

But then again, even if it is only better than the competing products, it is also a victory.

03 Double camera&triple camera bring double happiness? No, it's N times

Apple may not be the best, but it is the most fun.

The iPhone 11 is equipped with a 12 megapixel dual camera, and the iPhone 11 Pro adds a 12 megapixel telephoto lens on this basis. In terms of parameters alone, the iPhone 11 has long been hit on the ground by 48 million, 64 million, or even 18 million pixels. However, in fact, the former only has a gap in the resolution of the magnified image, and image parameters such as exposure, white balance, color, tolerance and shooting experience are also important criteria for measuring the quality of the camera.

What Apple has done better lies in the image parameters and shooting experience mentioned by the latter.

1. Multi shot switching image quality has no visible damage, and switching smooth experience is like optical lens zoom

One of the most obvious problems when switching between different lenses of the Android camera phone is that the picture quality changes. When the iPhone 11 switches between different lenses, its exposure effect, white balance, color temperature, and style are almost the same. Does Apple use three identical sensors? We carefully read the script on Apple's official website and found that when describing the wide-angle camera, it uses a "new 12 million pixel sensor", while the other two sensors are not "new".

In addition, when switching between long and short focus cameras, the Android multi camera system tends to have obvious stuttering. However, the multi shot switch of iPhone 11 has been greatly improved. The addition of zoom in or zoom out animation in the viewfinder box makes the switch of different focus segments relatively smooth.

Later, we found the answer on the official website: "Even if the three sets of sensors all use the same color system, the color and sensitivity of different camera modules are difficult to be consistent. With this in mind, our engineers first accurately adjust the white balance, exposure and other parameters of each camera separately, and then adjust the three cameras as a whole, so that different modules present consistent effects. " The fast and smooth switching is due to the powerful computing power of the A13 bionic chip.

2. Who else works at the same time with four shots

In the past, the combination of multiple camera lenses for mobile phones was generally used to enhance the image effect in the combination of the main camera and the virtual (or black and white) lens, but the lenses with different focus segments hardly work at the same time. The iPhone 11 series broke this technical convention——

Immersive shooting

In normal shooting, the black part around the original frame is filled with images. The surrounding images are taken by the ultra wide angle lens working at the same time, and the images obtained are spliced with the main image in the frame. When taking a photo for cutting, it will be found that the mosaic image obtained from ultra wide angle is also within the cutting range of this photo. It should be noted that this super wide-angle patched map can only be kept in the system for 30 days.

More playfully, the three rear cameras and the front camera of the iPhone 11 Pro can even work at the same time, which may be due to the powerful computing power of the Apple A13 processor and the refinement of related algorithms.

3. Some small details are optimized to the point where they can't stop

You may think that I will say 120 frames of front slow motion video, but in fact this function is of no use to me. If some friends think it is useful, we will talk about it later. What really makes me want to stop is two thoughtful details optimization:

Fast video recording and continuous shooting with sliding shutter

Shutter optimization: It is difficult to keep pace with the capture of some scenes even when the shooting page is opened. The iPhone 11 shutter can slide left to take continuous pictures and right to quickly record video, eliminating the trouble of switching shooting modes.

Self portrait horizontal screen automatically cuts wide angle: as long as the iPhone is horizontal, the camera will automatically pull away, so as to obtain a larger range of view. It can be said that it is an essential function for self taking group photos.

From the proof sheet, there is almost no obvious difference between the iPhone 11 series main shooting routine close shot and the previous generation, but the relatively large scenes can see significant color temperature difference, but it never changes. The color correction of the iPhone has always maintained a relatively cool style. The telephoto lens of the iPhone 11 Pro series has significantly improved brightness in relatively dark environments, which may be due to the upgrade of the f/2.0 aperture of the telephoto lens. With the help of night view mode, the iPhone 11 series can bring higher brightness dark scene samples than the previous generation models.

When you get started with an Android flagship, you may sigh that the photos you take are so beautiful that they are saved later. When you start using an iPhone 11, you will exclaim that the mobile camera is still so easy to use?

04 Performance improvement Robust 5G backward forced two evils phase right

Do you want to run for a minute? Not satisfied, run 5G.

Apple A series processor has always been the highlight of new iPhone products, and this year's A13 bionics is no exception: it adopts 7nm process and integrates transistor The number is up to 8.5 billion (the number of A12 transistors is 6.9 billion), the microprocessor architecture of two big cores+four small cores, the eight core neural network engine and two new machine learning accelerator , it has stronger performance and further reduces power consumption.

The score run was completely unexpected, which was significantly improved compared with the previous generation of A12 chip. In addition, according to Geekbench data, although the new score of A13 processor with multiple cores does not exceed that of A12X, the score of single core has already taken a clear lead.

However, all friends have completed the integration of 5G baseband plug-in to SoC, while iPhone 11 does not even have 5G baseband plug-in versions, which can be said to be an embarrassment of capitalization. 2019 has entered the first year of 5G, and 5G products of Android camp have already begun to compete with each other. It is said that Apple, which has no 5G baseband available before, seems to have fallen into a passive position.

So the life cycle of iPhone 11 presents such an unprecedented embarrassment: 5G is still not mature in one year, but if 5G network laying becomes more and more mature in this year, then the release time of the next generation of iPhone supporting 5G will become a blank period for Apple products. This may also force Apple to change the practice of launching new products in autumn.

At present, the 5G network is still a plaything for geek players. There is a long way to go from the base station coverage of the 5G network to the terminal devices in the hands of users. Similarly, Cook's explanation is that the current 5G network is not mature enough, and Apple does not need to rush forward. In fact, even if Apple has 5G baseband available, it is also a dilemma for Apple, which takes device stability as one of its brand reputation advantages——

If 5G supporting devices are launched together with iPhone 11, it can be basically determined that the stability of their devices is difficult to compete with those of friends with deep technical strength, and the reputation related to the stability of their devices will also collapse; However, if it does not support 5G, Apple will miss the takeoff period of 5G, and its market share will naturally be eroded by its friends. Apple has to choose the lesser of the two evils.

After all, ten years to the east and ten years to the west.

05 Endurance | 18W Fast Charge Impressive Competitors of the same level are even

Suddenly became a good conscience. Eh? There's a hole

Apple's fast charging has come out after a thousand calls. The iPhone 11 finally supports 18W fast charging in its full range. Don't be too happy. Apple still has a half hidden operation: the iPhone 11 is equipped with a five blessing and one security ancestral charging head as standard. Looking at the price on the official website, it seems that we can vaguely see Cook's smiling face: the 18W USB-C power adapter costs 243 yuan. Of course, we should not forget to buy another USB-C to lightning interface data cable, the cheapest 1m long cable material is 145 yuan.

From the data of the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the 3110mAh battery of iPhone 11, 3046mAh battery of iPhone 11 Pro, and 3969mAh battery of iPhone 11 Pro Max have finally caught up with the current mainstream Android flagship in terms of parameters. We took the iPhone 11 Pro Max with the largest battery and conducted a simple endurance test from full power. The test lasted for three hours (including one hour Video playback , one hour of games, half an hour of music, and half an hour of shooting).

06 To sum up, the biggest problem of whether to buy or not is the price of 5G

Maybe some friends want to buy iPhone 11, but they are struggling with 5G: after the 5G version is launched, will it be replaced again? In fact, we can rest assured that mobile phones have become fast moving consumer goods, and the service life of mobile phones will be considerable after more than two years. For the iPhone, two years is just a change of two generations of products. After all, the price of the iPhone is high, and it is normal to replace it from generation to generation, and the 4G network will not be retired in the next few years.

In fact, it is not too late to use 5G. After all, there is still enough time left for 5G network coverage. As far as the iPhone 11 series is concerned, after all, it is the best iPhone so far. It is not too much to put the phrase "buy early and enjoy early" here.

Don't tell me that you don't support 5G and don't buy it because it is too expensive.
