iPhone 11 Pro : It’s a slightly better iPhone 11…
iPhone 11 vs iPhone 11 Pros: Design
Apple didn’t deviate too much from the formula it presented in the iPhone XS and XR. That means in terms of body size the entry-level iPhone 11 is sandwiched between the new Pros, despite costing significantly less. Here’s how the three phones measure up:
- iPhone 11: 75.7 x 150.9 x 8.3mm
- iPhone 11 Pro: 71.4 x 144 x 8.1mm
- iPhone 11 Pro Max: 77.8 x 158 x 8.1mm
Despite the differences in size, the three phones all share the same aesthetics, with a notched display and an all-glass back with a new square camera array. The 11 Pros, however, features stainless steel sides while the iPhone 11 has aluminum sides. The cheaper iPhone 11 also has slightly thicker bezels, but all in all, they’re very similar in appearance—the iPhone 11 even has the same square camera bump as the Pro, despite only having two lenses.
iPhone 11 vs iPhone 11 Pros: Display
While the phones may all look the same, they each have different display sizes, and just like last year, it’s a little confusing. The cheaper iPhone 11 actually has a larger display than the iPhone 11 Pro, but it’s lower quality:
- iPhone 11: 6.1-inch Liquid Retina, 1792 x 828
- iPhone 11 Pro: 5.8-inch Super Retina XDR, 2436 x 1125
- iPhone 11 Pro Max: 6.5-inch Super Retina XDR, 2688 x 1242
Maybe even more significantly, the iPhone 11 uses LCD tech, while the two Pro models use superior OLED tech.

Simply based on screen resolution and what we know about the OLEDs Apple has delivered in its past two models, the Pro models will bring deeper blacks and more brilliant colors, and simply look stunning.
iPhone 11 vs iPhone 11 Pros: Performance
All the new phones feature Apple’s new A13 Bionic processor that puts an emphasis on machine learning. Apple says its both the fastest CPU and GPU in a smartphone, with an advanced neural engine, machine learning accelerators, and Core ML3, all of which add up to an incredibly powerful chip that should be powering a laptop, not a phone.
The upshot is we should expect pretty much the same excellent performance from all three phones (notwithstanding any small differences resulting from the A13 driving different display resolutions).
iPhone 11 vs iPhone 11 Pros: Front camera
All three models once again feature Apple’s TruDepth Camera with Face ID, and it’s gotten an upgrade over the 7MP lens in last year’s phones. The iPhone 11 and iPhone 11 Pro models all have the same 12MP, f/2.2 aperture camera, and Apple has added a brand new feature: “slofies,” which records your selfie vids at 120fps.
iPhone 11 vs iPhone 11 Pros: Rear cameras
The rear camera system is where Apple truly differentiates its two classes of iPhone. Apple is making a big deal out of the new triple-camera array on the iPhone 11 Pro models, but the dual-camera lens on the iPhone 11 is no slouch:
iPhone 11
- Camera 1: 12MP wide, f/1.8, OIS
- Camera 2: 12MP ultra wide, f/2.4, 120-degree FOV
iPhone 11 Pro and Pro Max
- Camera 1: 12MP wide, f/1.8, OIS
- Camera 2: 12MP telephoto, f/2.0, OIS, 2x optical zoom
- Camera 3: 12MP ultra wide, f/2.4, 120-degree FOV
The obvious difference is the addition of the telephoto camera on the iPhone 11 Pros. So while the iPhone 11 can go from 0.5x (ultra wide) to 1x (wide), the iPhone 11 Pros go from 0.5x to 2x (telephoto), for a total of 4x optical zoom.
The triple-camera system in the iPhone 11 Pro is more than just an extra lens.Nonetheless, both camera tiers have very similar features. There’s a new Night Mode for taking useable shots in extreme low light; portrait mode and portrait lighting; next-generation Smart HDR; and advanced red‑eye correction and auto image stabilization. And both the cheaper iPhone 11 and more expensive 11 Pros snap simultaneous wide and ultra wide pics each time you shoot, so you can decide later which one to keep.
As far as video, all three phones record in 4K at up to 60fps, and feature audio zoom (which focuses the microphone on your subject as you zoom), brighter True Tone flash, and the new QuıckTake video that lets you hold the shutter to quickly switch to video mode.
iPhone 11 vs iPhone 11 Pros: Battery/Charging
Last year’s iPhone XR actually had better battery life than the more expensive XS models, but Apple has fixed that with this year’s models. While all three have received a capacity boost, the iPhone 11 Pros are particularly beefier. Here’s how Apple describes battery life:
- iPhone 11: 1 hour longer than iPhone XR
- iPhone 11 Pro: 4 hours longer than iPhone XS
- iPhone 11 Pro Max: 5 hours longer than iPhone XS Max
That’s a significant boost all around, but especially for the Pro models. If you look at the video playback estimates, Apple says the iPhone 11 will get up to 17 hours, the iPhone 11 Pro up to 18 hours, and the iPhone 11 Pro Max up to 20 hours.
As far as charging, both phones have wireless charging on board as well as fast-charging via a 12W or higher power adapter. However, only the iPhone 11 Pros include a proper 18W charger in the box. iPhone 11 owners will need to buy one, as their phone only comes with the same 5W power adapter.
iPhone 11 vs iPhone 11 Pros: Sound
Last year’s iPhones had great sound thanks to a new stereo speaker system, but Apple has taken audio ever further with the iPhone 11. All models feature spatial audio, a 3D sound model made possible by a new sound visualizer. And with that comes Dolby Atmos support, which should sound crisper, clearer, and more immersive on all of the new iPhones.
iPhone 11 vs iPhone 11 Pros: Storage
The storage tiers are the same as last year’s phones, with each phone starting at 64GB:
- iPhone 11: 64GB/128GB/256GB
- iPhone 11 Pro: 64GB/256GB/512GB
- iPhone 11 Pro Max: 64GB/256GB/512GB
iPhone 11 vs iPhone 11 Pro: Price
Apple surprised us by actually cutting the price of one of it’s phones this year. While the iPhone 11 Pro and iPhone 11 Pro Max start at $999 and $1,099 respectively (mirroring last year’s prices), the entry-level price of the iPhone 11 has gone down to $699/7500MAD, a $50/500MAD drop from the $749/8000MAD iPhone XR. Here’s how it all breaks down:
- iPhone 11: $699/$749/$849 - 7500MAD/8000MAD/9000MAD
- iPhone 11 Pro: $999/$1,149/$1,349 - 10,000MAD/13,000MAD/15,000MAD
- iPhone 11 Pro Max: $1,099/$1,249/$1,449 - 12,000MAD/14,000MAD/16,000MAD
