iPhone 12 vs iPhone 11: What's Changed?

Pro smartphones have a stainless steel design (instead of the aluminum of the iPhone 12), demonstrating a more premium product. In addition, like the other iPhones presented during the launch event, the Pro version also has the A14 Bionic chip, developed by Apple and, according to the company's engineers, the most powerful ever made for the brand's products.

In the photography part, the iPhone 12 Pro has a new sensor called LIDAR, similar to what the iPad Pro has to use augmented reality effects. According to the company, the sensor can be used in AR applications, being able to assist in low-light photos by improving focus speed. In addition, LIDAR allows portrait mode night shots. We have two 12MP sensors, one normal and one ultrawide. The entire line of iPhones is based on these two sensors. On the front, we also have 12MP and a depth sensor for portrait mode.

3. iPhone 11, iPhone 11 Pro e iPhone 11 Pro Max

The latest iPhones are usually the best, the 11 lineup has arrived to be controversial, with a camera set that was considered odd for having a block of three non-symmetrical lenses. This block ended up becoming standard for use in other smartphones released later.

Apple iPhone 11 Pro Max was released in September 2019. It arrived with Apple A13 Bionic chipset, Apple GPU, memory set: 64GB 6GB RAM, 256GB 6GB RAM, 512GB 6GB RAM.

4. iPhone 12 Mini

We put the iPhone 12 Mini in third place because it really does have the power of its younger siblings, but it lacks some of the more advanced camera features that the iPhone 11 Pro has.

According to Apple, the iPhone 12 Mini is currently the lightest, thinnest and smallest 5G smartphone in the world.

Like the iPhone 12, the mini version also uses an A14 Bionic processor, developed by Apple, which has a 5-nanometer lithography and better energy efficiency than its predecessor, the A13. The new processor developed by Apple engineers has a 6-core CPU (2 high clocked and 4 low clocked), which, according to the developers, is 50% faster than the A13 chip. There's also a 4-core GPU, where the company claims the processing is capable of producing console-quality games.

In cameras we have two 12MP sensors, one normal and one ultrawide. The entire line of iPhones is based on these two sensors. On the front, we also have 12MP and a depth sensor for portrait mode.

5. iPhone XS Max e iPhone XS

We put the two devices in the same place because they are practically the same, what changes are just a few fractions of an inch on the screen, but let's talk about this issue separately.

The top of Apple's latest releases is certainly the iPhone XS Max. The XS Max has a 6,5-inch Super Retina OLED display, in a 6,2 x 3,1 x 0,3-inch frame, compatible with Dolby Vision, colorful and very sharp.

Both devices come equipped with the powerful A12 Bionic chipset, in addition to having 4 GB of RAM. There's also a TrueDepth sensor for quick unlocking of Face ID and Animoji. The two rear cameras offer portrait mode and 2x zoom.

The iPhone XS is the same size as its predecessor iPhone X, with a 5,8-inch screen, which isn't as exaggerated as the 6,5-inch brother XS Max, but still great for watching videos or playing games.

Bonus:

iPhone XR

The iPhone XR is a great option for those who don't want (or can't) pay what the iPhone XS costs, but who don't give up having an updated device. This is Apple's "cheap" iPhone among those recently launched, in addition to being the best device on this list in terms of battery life and having different colors, such as blue, white, black, yellow, coral and red, contrasting with the softer colors. of the iPhone XS and the iPhone XS Max.

But, the big differences between the XR and the XS/XS Max are more aesthetic, because they have some important similarities: Apple's fast A12 Bionic chipset and two cameras on the back.

In short, the iPhone XR is cheaper, it's more colorful, it has a big 6,1-inch screen, which can be seen as a middle ground between the iPhone XS and XS Max. This screen is enough for most people, especially those who don't want an OLED screen.

iPhone X

The iPhone X was the most expensive device Apple ever released, before the iPhone XS Max came along a year later. The arrival of the latter also signaled Apple's decision to stop selling the iPhone X in its official store, although you will find the device for sale in other stores.

With a gorgeous, nearly bezel-less design and more cutting-edge technology than you can handle, the iPhone X is still an excellent choice. Key highlights include a great telephoto camera, impressive battery life, and the security of Face ID, which lets you unlock your smartphone using your face.

Avoid those iPhones

iPhone 6S, iPhone SE and earlier

The iPhone 6S / 6S Plus and iPhone SE, and all previous iPhones, can probably be found in stores and used for resale, but they are no longer worth it. They don't have the processing power to keep up with the next few years' apps and updates in a satisfactory way. They aren't waterproof either, and their camera technology isn't as refined as the newer models. Since Apple no longer sells them, it can choose to stop software updates anytime for years to come. Unless you fear the opportunity to buy for very little money, it is better to invest in an iPhone 7 or newer.
