hi, everyone, this is the current offering of iPhones
from Apple for 2020
this is every phone that Apple currently sells new on
their website or in their stores now you may be able to
get other phones that are not here used or refurbished
but they are not sold in stores or anything like that so
these are everything that's currently sold by Apple new
and so we'll start on the left with the iPhone 8, the
iPhone 8 starts at four hundred and forty-nine dollars
and goes all the way up to the iPhone 11 Pro Max on
the far right here that ends at one thousand four
hundred and forty-nine dollars for the largest storage
the option of 512 gigabytes so we have a very wide range
of prices from left to right so we have a
couple differences between them the iPhone 8
obviously has a home button and we have face ID on
the rest we'll talk about that in a moment but let's talk
about the offerings from each one of these phones so
as you can see this is the silver iPhone 8 and the
silver iPhone 8 is for 49 and then goes to $4.99 with
64128 gigabytes of storage you can also get the larger sized
iPhone 8 plus and again it comes in at similar prices
similar storage and is available in space grey silver
and gold so we have space grey here silver with the
iPhone 8 now with the iPhone XR, we have a lot more
colors start at 599 dollars and go up to six hundred
and forty-nine dollars you can get 64 or 128 gigabytes
currently,
it comes in white black blue yellow color product red
like this one so you'll see this is the red one its product
which means they donate some of the profits to the
AIDS Foundation to help get rid of AIDS around the
world and then we have the iPhone 11 iPhone 11starts
at $6.99
and goes to eight hundred and forty-nine dollars it's
available in 64 128 or 256 gigabytes it comes in in
white black yellow this color green purple and again
product red so this is this nice green color and that's a
new color this year as compared to the iPhone XR
when it comes to the iPhone 11 Pro and eleven
Promax the I phone 11procomes in at 999 dollars and
goes up to thirteen hundred and forty-nine dollars it's
available in 64 256 or 512 gigabytes and you can see
here this is the new midnight green color but it also
comes in space grey silver and gold and with the
iPhone 11 Pro max you can see this is the Space Gray
variant and this starts at 1099 and goes all the way up
to one thousand four hundred and forty-nine dollars it
comes in 64 256 gigabytes or 512 gigabytes and again
has the same space grey silver gold and midnight
green colors when it comes to the overall build of the phones
they're a little bit different the four phones on the Left
weigh a little bit less because they're made of aluminum
and then glass so the actual frame around the outside
edge of the eight 8 + XR +11 have aluminum around
the entire outside edge and glass front and back with
the 11pro and the 11pro Maxx these are made of
stainless steel so the outside ring is stainless steel and
then again glass front and back so they're all the same as far as
that goes with the pros and then they're all the same as
far as the other models as well now when it comes to
overall weight the phone's on the right are going to feel
a little bit heavier due to their stainless steel
construction but they're not too much heavier overall
so here are the different weights of all of them and it
goes from 148 grams all the way up to226 grams for all
of them so from lightest to heaviest now one of
the greatest differences on these phones is the display
the four on the left are all LCD and then the two on the
right the 11 Pro and 11 Pro max are OLED displays
and they've really made them very nice this year
they've made them a little bit brighter but let's talk about
the displays and the resolution because of the LCD
displays these are some of the best LCD panels ever
made and I know some people will say with the XR and
the 11 which have the exact same displays that it is a
lower resolution than the other displays
but because the pixel density is above 300 you're not
really going to see any of those pixels and it looks
fantastic it has great viewing angles and that's true of
any of the LCD displays from Apple they're very vibrant
they're very nice and they go nice and bright but they're
not as bright as the LED displays on the 11pro and
the 11pro max the 11 Pro and 11 Pro max can go very
very bright in fact, 800 nits are the peak brightness and then it can
go even higher when playing HDR content so the 11
Pro and 11 Pro max can play HDR and technically the
iPhone 11 can do the same but the OLED displays give
you deeper blacks and then brighter colors overall with
a little bit more saturation so Apple does a good job of
balancing all of these displays but they are not the
same when it comes to watching different content and
so you have your choice of 4.7 inches that's actually a
rectangular display all the way up to 6.5 inches with
rounded corners on the LED displays of the11pro
max so you have a wide variety of what works for you, however,
there's one thing I should mention that has to do with LED display specifically that I don't hear a lot
of others talk about but I've mentioned regularly and
that something called PWM or pulse width modulation
that's the way OLED display regulate their brightness
and some people are sensitive to this about 1 in10
people and what that means is when you brighten or
dim an OLED display it's actually flickering faster or
slower and the longer it keeps the light on the brighter it
looks LCD displays with the 8 plus or the 8 and the XR
and the11 don't do this they don't flicker at all in any
way and they are nice and bright or dim and they're just
always lit so they don't have that flicker going on and
that flicker may bother some people's eyes cause them
to feel nauseated or give them headaches so that's
something to keep in mind however with this year's
phones the 11 Pro
and 11 Pro Max has a higher rate flicker which most
people can't see and doesn't bother as many people
but it's still something that's there so I thought I'd
mention it now another thing to mention is only the
iPhone 8 and 8 plus have 3d touch and what that
means is there's a pressure-sensitive
layer under the display that allows you to push a little
bit or push harder for different activities to take place
and you're probably familiar with this you can press on
slide your finger to adjust the brightness but what Apple
has done with all of the newer phones from the ten are
on is get rid of that and then replace it with a press
and hold so you've got a press and hold you
accomplish the same task and while it works it is
nowhere near as fast so with pressure sensitivity on
the music app for example if I press and hold we'll try it
again you'll see it didn't work the first time on the
iPhone 11 Pro let's try
it again and you'll see it works but it's a little bit slower
let me try it one more time so you can see again it's it
works just fine give you the same sort of functions but
it is a little bit slower so just keep that in mind if you
love 3d touch while they've changed it dramatically with iOS 13 it's still there it's just not as good but it's definitely better than the haptic touch or the press and holds that we have on the newer phones now with Apple's newer phones the iPhone 11 11 Pro and 11 Pro Max
they seem to be more shatter-resistant but by doing
that it softens the glass and makes them more prone
to scratching so for example on my iPhone 11 pro max
it's fairly scratched and it scratched much easier than
say the iPhone 8 plus that I have here over the years
of using this it really doesn't have many scratches on it
and I donate a screen protector but with the newer
phone it seems to gather scratches much more easily
and that's by putting it in my pocket with nothing else
in there I'm very careful where I said it but it's just
something to know and I would highly recommend a
screen protector if you are going to have one of the
newer phones while they are more shatter-resistant
you probably will get more light scratches on them more
easily but the shadow resistance is not a bad thing
because if you were to shatter these and you did not
have Apple Care the price to replace the displays is
very expensive also the price to replace the back is
very expensive
so I would highly recommend Apple
care on these devices so that your maximum cost with
anything is about $100 because it can get very
expensive if you were to break this backglass Apple
replaces the whole device for five to six hundred dollars
whether when it comes to the older devices if you were
to shatter the glass it's much more reasonable to get
the display replaced the back is not reasonable but the
the front is reasonable to get replaced if you needed to so
just keep that in mind with the LCD displays they are
cheaper to repair should you shatter the screen now
finally, something that I actually don't think about
anymore with the displays is the notch may
bother some people it doesn't really bother me much
you get used to it very quickly but if it's something that
bothers you most people that actually switch to a phone
with a knob don't really notice it after a day or so most
people have talked to have said it's not a big deal I
thought it would be but it's not so just keep that in mind
but for the most part, it's not really something to worry
about but if it drives you nuts is a consideration of
course now despite the resolution differences
the displays look great overall you're not going to
complain about it I don't think even though some people
will say that the XR and the 11 are 720pdisplays
they're actually closer to 1080p you can still watch
1080p content on YouTube there's no issues with that
and there's no reason you can't watch quality content
on these and you will never notice the difference so
let's go into one of my videos so I can show you if we
go to some of the options in the upper right here you'll
see here is the quality and you have 1080p is an
options you can watch 1080p video it will just scale
and it's closer to 1080p than it is to 720p but again the
resolution is less important as opposed to the pixel
density so you're not going to see those pixels now
let's talk about the specs overall because while there
are quite a big step in specs between all of these
different devices it's not as big as you might think for
example the iPhone 8 has the 11 Bionic processor
with 2 gigabytes of RAM, the 8 plus has the same an 11
Bionic but with 3 gigabytes of RAM usually due to that
larger display the iPhone XR has a 12 Bionic with 3
gigabytes of RAMthe iPhone 11 has a 13 Bionic as
do the iPhone 11 Pro and pro max they all have the a
13 Bionic and they all have 4 gigabytes of RAM so
they all should compete very well as far as speed now
one of the ways we can sort of test this is if I go to the
oldest device and one of the newer devices see maybe
we'll use the 11pro here and let's open Minecraft so
let's open the game and you'll see I'm opening it for the
first time here it'll take a moment and you can see the
color temperature differences between the displays
the OLED is a little bit different the newer phones do
support true tome or this does well but it's something
I have turned off on all of them so let's go ahead and hit
confirm continue let's get rid of this here and continue
and then what I'm going to do is create a new world so
we'll just see how quickly it loads because you'll see
right now things look pretty similar here so we'll hit
create and let's see how quick both of them create a
world because they're going to be very similar despite
the iPhone 8 and 8 Plus have a little bit older
processor so you'll see we're within a second or so
they're both going to be highly playable there won't be
any issues with that but I wanted to do one test that's a
little more taxing on the processor and some people
have said this isn't something you would do in real life
and that's true but its really one of the ways you can
push the processor or the graphics chip in it to the max
to see what the difference is so what I was going to do
is will compress 4k video that I've put in I Movie on all
of these devices so let me get that ready for you now
I've closed out every application that I was using and
let's go ahead and open I Movie so you'll see there's no
other applications open on any of the phones there's
nothing stored in memory so I've imported a clip split the
clip into and then added a title on every single one of
these this is a 4k clip and also let's bring in the iPhone
since maybe we'll have a set later on in the year but
here is a stopwatch that we'll use what I'm going to
do is export this clip and you'll see I added the title here
I'm done with that so we're going to export this clip and
then see how quickly they can compress on all of these
because sometimes on a Mac this can take quite a
while to do but on a phone, it's actually quite fast so
this particular clip is a little over three minutes or almost
four minutes so if Igo to the end where they're all
identical three minutes and 46 seconds now I have all
of these videos ready to export I'm going to try and hit
them all at the same time so we can get them all
exporting at the same time and then I'll hit the stopwatch
so let's try that and we'll hit start and let's see how long
this actually takes I'll speed this up so you don't have
to wait for the whole time now we're a little over halfway
through and you'll see some of the older phones such
as the ten are and the eight-plus are doing quite well so
the RAM on the iPhone eight I make it a little bit
slower but it's pretty impressive to see how they're all
doing now as expected the iPhone 11 Pro and 11
Pro Mac'swere all even in export times the 10r was just
behind it by maybe a second or half a second and then
the iPhone 8 plus was behind that not too much at all
but the eight was much further behind and I suspect
that's due to the amount of RAM that it has it's the least
amount of RAM and video exporting can be fairly
RAM intensive but either way they all did really well
even compared to exporting on a MacBook so that
should give you a general idea of how fast they
are compared to one another when doing an intensive
the task, although I don't suspect this, is something you
would do regularly now when it comes to iPhone one of
the biggest reason people buy an iPhone is because of
their cameras are very consistent but
there are very big differences from the iPhone 8 all the
way to the iPhone 11 pro max so I wanted to show you
the differences firstI'll show you the forward-facing
camera and then I'll show you the rear-facing camera so
when it comes to the forward-facing camera the iPhone
8 plus and iPhone XR all have a 7 megapixel F 2.2
aperture they all record in 1080pand the iPhone XR
can do 1080p 60 off the front camera so if I turn on
the front camera of the XR, for example, will spin it
around here and if we go to the video and do the same with
the 8 or the 8 plus it's going to be identical the quality
will be the same and I'll show you a different sample in
a moment now when we take a look at the iPhone 11
Pro and 11 pro max this is an all-new 12megapixel
a camera so it's got a front-facing camera that's 12
megapixel and an F 2.2 aperture so the quality is much
better and it can record in 4k 60 so it has a very high
the resolution it looks great and you could honestly use it
for vlogging most of the time as long as you have good
lighting so it's an areally impressive camera so let me
show you a little sample between all of them I'm
recording with the forward-facing camera on three
different phones the 8 Plus, which is the same as the 8
the XR and the 11 Pro so the 11pro of the 11 Promax
and the 11 all have the same cameras so as you can
see the background of the 8 plus is a little bit blown out
where the XR and the11pro are a little bit different and
they have better dynamic range overall and you can
hear the audio between all three the 11 pros the XR and
the 8 plus now when it comes to the rear cameras this
is a huge difference so with the iPhone 8 for example
we have a single lens and this lens is a 12
megapixel camera and it can record 4k 60 all of them
have that capability and they all have at least one
optical image stabilized lens the 8 plus has a
dual camera it has a regular camera and then a
telephoto lens when it comes to the iPhone XR we go
back to one camera but again this is a very nice
camera it's a12 megapixel F 1.8 lens it does have
digital zoom and looks really nice and then on the
iPhone 11 we add another lens but this time it's not a
telephoto this times it's an ultra-wide lens so on the 11
we have a 12-megapixel sensor but it's a new sensor
on the 11 Pro and 11 Pro max as compared to the
12-megapixel sensors in the older phones so with the
11 we have a dual-camera setup 12megapixel Fone
point 8 and 12 megapixel F 2 point 4 ultra-wide they
can recording 4k 60 and they use the knurl engine in the
processor to process the video in real-time it's very
impressive what it can do with the iPhone 11 Pro in
the11pro max they have the exact same camera setup
so now we have triple lenses we have a normal lens
that's 12 megapixels F 1.8 then we haven't
12megapixel F 2.0 optical zoom lens and then we have
an all-new ultra-wide lens to that's on the 11 that is a 2.4 so all of them again are really nice cameras but let I show you some samples comparing them along with some video here you can see video stabilization between all six phones, each camera has a telephoto
a lens with the exception of the iPhone XR the iPhone
XR uses digital zoom but it's better than you might
expect so here's 2x and then here's 1x you'll see all of
they look about the same but the newer iPhones the 11
the 11 Pro and the 11 Pro max also have an ultra
wide lens where you can zoom way out and see a lot
more now another consideration between the phones is
touch ID verse face IDnow when the newest phones
face ID is super fast and what you normally do is you
just pick up the phone look at it and swipe up while
you're lifting the phone up but if you have touch ID
you're going to have a different situation you either
have this home button here or you can pick it up turn it
on and do it that way but let me show you what I mean
I'll pick it up and swipe and at the same time hit the
home button and you'll see it's a little bit hard to
compare the two but let's try again and you'll see the
home button seems to be a little bit faster but a lot of
people like the ability to have a larger screen because
you don't need the bezel for the home button so this is
a big consideration for some people face ID is much
more secure with the exception of maybe if you
have a twin but overall they're both great after using
face ID and finally in the newer generation I think it's
more than adequate and most people I talk to would
much rather have face ID than touch ID I could really go
with either/or but some people are going to be very
picky about that now let's talk a little bit about battery
because this is a huge difference between all of them
starting with the iPhone 8 we have a smaller battery of
course because we have a smaller body of the phone
so its eighteen hundred and twenty-one milliamp hours
that will give you about five hours of the screen on time
depending on your usage when we move to the
eight plus we have a two thousand six hundred and
ninety-one milliamp-hour battery most people will get six
or seven hours of screen on time depending on
use closer to six hours but it just depends on how you're
using the phone when we get to the iPhone 10 hour the
the battery gets a little bit bigger this last year's best phone
as far as battery goes it's got a two thousand
nine hundred and forty-two milliamp-hour battery you're
going to get about seven hours of the screen on time some
people can do a little bit better depending on how they
use it but that's what I see pretty much is average you'll
get an additional hour of the screen on time with the iPhone 11 it has a slightly larger 3110milliamp hour battery so maybe seven to nine hours depending on how you use some people will get less if they're heavy on using games and things like that and then if we are talking
about the iPhone 11 pro and pro max Apple
has increased the battery size for the size of the
chassis by quite a bit the iPhone11 pro has a three
thousand forty-six milliamp-hour battery that will get
you about five hours more screen-on time than the
iPhone XS that it replaced so most people are seeing
10 to 11 hours of screen on time with the iPhone 11
Pro with the 11 Pro max we have a 3969 milliamp-hour
battery and this will get you 10 to 12 hours of screen on
time and I seem to get about 12 hours of screen-on time
with average use so if I go to my battery and battery
health being at100% if it's lower than that this can vary
a little bit but if we take an example where I've used
25% of my battery today I've used 2 hours and
24minutes of the screen on time 1 hour and 3 minutes of
screen off time if we do two and a half hours times 4
since I've only used a quarter of my battery and
were down to 77 percent if we do 2 times 4 that gives
us about 10 hours maybe a little more maybe a little
less but most of the time 10 to 12 hours and that'snot
including the screen off time that I'm using as well so
they're very very good batteries in the newer phones
they all support fast charging but only the iPhone 11 pro
and pro max includes a fast charger in the box so you
can fast charge the older phones they may be a little bit
slower to fast charge but they will fast charge if you
have the right adapter now one thing that's
very important obviously is reception and reception on
the iPhone 8 and 8 plus if you have the Verizon variant
can be much better than what you get with the
modern phones of the 11 Pro and Promax and that it
comes down to the use of Qualcomm modems verse
Intel modems most people that have Qualcomm
models have a much better reception or experience
with the older phones especially from the seven and
older with the iPhone 11 Promax there are some spotty
issues sometimes switching from Wi-Fi to LTE or LTE
the signal may drop while it's not bad for most people some
people do have issues with it and I have seen that
myself from time to time so the 8 m8 plus especially
like I said the CDMA or the Verizon variant is going to
have the best reception of any of them so just keep that
in mind all of the rest are very similar I find that
the end is and the 11 seem to have a little bit better
reception than the 11Pro and Pro max I don't know if
that's due to the construction or not but I do find that to
be the case now when we're talking about the speakers
of all of them, it's very difficult to hear the difference
between all of them on a singular microphone that I've
got here that I'm speaking into but it is a very big
difference between the 11 Pro and Pro max as
compared to the rest of them so from worst to best it's
going to be an 8 plus in XR then 11 11 Pro and11 Pro
Max the volume on the 11 11 Pro and Pro max are
very loud the 8 and 8plus are fine but you have a much
more surround sound feel when you' relistening to it with
it especially the iPhone 11 Pro Max or Pro because
you've just got that nice sound projecting out now
another thing to keep in mind is landscape mode if you
have an 8 Plus you can do landscape on the home
the screen you can't do that on any other phone so any of
the other phones currently offered you can only do
portrait mode but the 8 plus offers landscape mode for
the home screen some people really like that and it's
not available in newer phones and then finally let's talk
about IP rating because that's the ingress
protection rating or protection against dust dirt and
water so the iPhone 8, 8 Plus & XR all have an IP 67
rating for about one meter for 30 minutes or so so if it
was dropped in 1 meter of water it should work after 30
minutes however I've seen this not to be the case that
in the past so just make sure you're careful with them
Apple does not cover water damage so even if you
were to shower with these or swim with these without a
the case they're not going to cover it the iPhone 11 has an
IP 68 certification that allows for a maximum depth of 2
meters for up to 30 minutes and then Apple went a little
a bit further with the 11pro and Promax, it's IP 68 for 4
meters up to 30 minutes but again if they are water
the damage they will not cover them for free so just keep
that in mind that's it for the offering this year of iPhones
and the 8and 8 plus are still fantastic phones I know a
a lot of people that are still picking them up because they
either like the home button, they prefer the squared off
the display they like the landscape on the home screen
there are numerous reasons to really like these devices
they still have good cameras, good speakers
good reception decent battery life but when you go to
the higher end of the 11promax this is where you're
going to get your absolute best battery life of course
that's without putting an additional case on it with a
battery as well where you can extend that dramatically
and then the mid-tier phones that give you all of the
features of the newer phones the iPhone XR and11 are
great consideration the 11 for $50 more is probably the
best way to go or $100 more depending on your
storage options and things like that but its really a great
phone and I think this is the phone that most people
should pick up if you want the newest latest and
greatest but don't want to pay the extra$300 premium
over it to get the stainless steel with the OLED display
so if none of that matters to you the iPhone 11 would be
the one I would choose for most people the XR is fine if
you're on a little bit of a budget and all of them will be
supported at least for a couple more years with
the eight and eight-plus the rest of them for many more
years to come let me know which one you picked and
why in the comments below if you'd like to get
your hands on this wallpaper, of course.
