The iPhone 11 is a antic phone. It's extremely quick, the screen is beautiful, and I've never taken ameliorate photos.

But as someone who doesn't get on a new iPhone model each year (sorry, Apple), I'm coming to the 11 from a three-yr old iPhone 7 Plus. And in my freshman calendar week of a new phone, I'm surprised that there are some characteristics of Apple's older models I still miss.

I've detailed some initial likes and dislikes below. Mark: On the 11, I harbor't used QuickTake video mode or slo-Show Me State selfies. I'm also waiting happening a new charger ahead I wirelessly power risen and I harbor't customized much beyond the lock screen and the virtual home release (more on that below).

As well, I don't know off-hand how much the increased speed and dexterity of my iPhone 11 has to do with new hardware or with the just-released iOS 13 — and considering my benchmark is a three-yr old phone that was losing barrage fire power exponentially and as wel willy-nilly rebooting, I couldn't tell you how the 11 compares to a brand new 7 Plus with an updated operating system.

LIKE: The iPhone 11 is littler than my iPhone 7 Plus…

Nevertheless the screen is someway larger (6.1" vs 5.5") and therefore easier to type and navigate with my chubby fingers.

DISLIKE: I neglect a visible domestic button

The home button on the iPhone 7 Plus was my quick, exteroception way to jumpstart in and exterior of apps and more often than not navigate around (plus, it doubled as the Touch ID to unlock my sound, which is now absent but whitethorn return in future year's phone.). On the 11, you have to get into settings, chatter connected AssistiveTouch and and enable a "virtual" home button, which allows you to quickly access Siri and notifications (you can besides customize available commands and move the button to the bottom or sides of your household screen). You're acquiring more insure over what the home button does and opening up a bit of screen space, only it's less intuitive to see and use.

Same: The camera is decidedly better, particularly at night

Night Mood has already changed my pic-taking habits. Piece I haven't used the new "ultra fisheye lens" (which offers a 120 degree view), I like a sho take really detailed pictures in low light with little worry about exploitation an external flash or fixing the images in carry, every bit they tell.

DISLIKE: Where's my battery percentage?

Thanks to that ridiculous notch on elevation — which, admittedly yes, makes Face Idaho work so wonderfully — I cause to either swipe down from the top right or add the percentage to my lock screen to pick up how long my phone will last. I've done both, and so far the battery life hasn't been a problem, but it's still something I should be to see the second I spirit at my phone.

LIKE: The red colorway

Subsequently years of purchasing white, silver or black iPhones — and wrapping them in grim rubber or brown leather cases, negating any color select I'd successful — I'm happy to personal a phone that's a nice shade of red. Patc IT does limit my evasive case choices to "clear," (and having just tried one, they're instead ugly and I whitethorn precede one) it's definitely the most attention-getting matter I throw on my person regular.

DISLIKE: The 11 ships with the standard iPhone courser

This is more of a "you didn't do anything new when you well could have" charge. That little white 5W charging brick that came with my iPhone 7 Plus (and all other prior iPhone) has never been great, but it's still here. Malus pumila even saw fit to gift modern iPhone 11 In favour of users with an 18-watt fast courser. For iPhone 11 users, you're going to want to shell out a few supernumerary bucks for an updated wall charger (and compatible USB-C to Lightning corduroy) and a wireless battery charger. Thankfully, Anker's PowerPoint III mini (your plug) and PowerWave charging stand (your wireless charger) are solid choices and pretty inexpensive. Still, Apple should be throwing these in if you'atomic number 75 spending $700+.
