Got the 11 a month ago and completely happy with it! Also I was an android user since first version of android so you can guess how good an iphone should be to satisfy an android user

My eyes were sore when I had the iPhone 12. I got a red 128gb for £530 on eBay it was only 2 days old! So I got my a bargain. I will be keeping the iPhone 11 until at least the 14 or maybe the 15 comes out. Trust me the iPhone 11 is a great phone for the price.
Aaron, Thanks for an excellent review! It was usefull to have all the phones side by side and place the alpha-numeric information above each phone. This is particularly usefull for people who place greater value on a particular feature (cost, battery life, camera specs, etc.). You may wish to build on this for all the features because it’s so much more efficient than sorting these differences on Apples website. The side by side photo depictions were excellent because in the end the actual product (ie the image processing) is what matters more than the raw specs. I like the way you efficiently covered each spec across the entire line rather than compare each overall phone in detail then move to the next. It was satisfying that you stuck impartially to the specs in an an unbiased manner and refrained from extraneous departures from the purpose of the evaluation. One enhancement I would consider is that for the high processing heat generation test, it would be useful to run the test simultaneously as you did but then use a FLIR (thermal imaging) camera to display the heat signature rather than qualitatively describe the feel. I listen to many reviews on Apple HW, and find myself thinking: “Could you just get to the point?” This is not an issue with you Arron, for you move efficiently through myriad of specifications and conclude with a concise summation, an excellent paradigm. Thanks! 🙏🤗

SE was my choice. Cheaper, great camera, fast and little newer. Traded my XR with the poor the antenna issues. Great while wearing a mask. Love this little phone.
@@leonbryan9105. I’m bias and already switched from XR to SE after only a year. SE2 after 7 months without any problems. Extremely heavy user for business for calls and emails. XR has the poor connections. Lots of dropped/broken calls (1 of 4) or wifi signal problems. Apple couldn’t find the problem after repeated tests. Problem is very common with Intel Antennae’s located in half their XR phones. Qualcomm antennae’s are excellent and exclusively used in the 11s, 12s and SE. SE is nearly perfect for my needs. Smaller screen, battery life is approx. 8 hours fir normal (last only 4 hours under heavy use) and Touch ID. Screen is big enough for calls, texts some light surfing; use the larger IPad for media. Battery life extended by 3X simply by purchasing a Case with built-in charger - $100 or less. Touch works well wearing a mask. Both Iphones are great, but the XR can be unreliable if shipped with an Intel Antennae. I also like using the button, swiping upwards is frustrating and Face ID is useless with a Mask. Cameras are comparable: same rear, better XR front and neither includes night mode. Battery life, XR is about 50% longer. SE is 2 years newer, support is definitely longer. Power is 20% faster and $100 cheaper on the SE. Hope this helps.
One thing that would have been great to see in comparison would be to load a webpage of text, to show much text is shown on each screen. My understanding is that while XR and 12 have the same size display, XR has higher logical size, so actually fits more on text content on the scren.
👀 Great comparison video. I went with the 12 Pro from 11 Pro Max. I wanted a smaller screen size, Qualcomm modem, and telephoto lens. Blessings on your day and I look forward to your content in 2021.

Excellent review! Thank you for covering all the available models. I just ordered the 12 pro max today and was second guessing my choice but not anymore!
Didn't expect the photos from the iPhone SE to be THAT good in comparison with the other iPhones, pretty much the same quality from the main camera but not as versatile, really impressed, the audio is also pretty similar. Excellent comparison! I already have a powerful phone for serious camera-related situations (LG V60) so, I'll take the iPhone SE for more casual/everyday stuff as it's really tiny and light in comparison to my other phone,
@@abdimohamed4477 ya, I agree, it will definitely be slower but I plan on getting a new battery put in after a few years to give it more life again, and for the most part it looks like the phone should still be really good and fast in a few years since it has the new 5 nanometer process
@@noahskirtz9457 Just charge it at 30% battery level up to minimum 80%, if you follow this method you won’t need to change the battery even after 3 years. And also avoid charging while device is heated up.
Iphone se is the one for me I love simplicity and of course Touch ID, comfortable to hold, single camera in the back i just love it I don't need much more than that
When I went to have my iPhone 8 Plus’s battery replaced in 6/2020 they damaged the phone so they replaced the whole phone with a new exactly the same phone (space grey) and storage (256). So it runs very smoothly and it only cost me $49.00!
In that case replacing the battery is a most Selling the phone and add a little bit of money to buy a new one is better in 4 years the 11 will lost his value
@@S.A_5w6 I mean I bought the XR after having the iPhone 6 for 3 years and a half on August 2020. But I bought it used and the battery health was at 87% but the battery was great even at 87% health. Then after almost 4 months , I traded in for the iPhone 11. I wanted to replace the battery but might as well get a brand new phone, brand new battery at 100% health and one more year of IOS updates so I made the right choice. I’m 2 years from now I’ll just get a new battery for $69. No need for new phone or because it will be full screen And blah blah. Save your phone and invest it instead of buying dumb new stuff that it’s pretty much the same shit. This dude had an XR then just switch to the 12 and said overall that it’s the same shit with an oled screen whatever. I don’t get people like that. It’s not something like a play station , where they come up with a new one every 6-7 years. Se smartphone be coming out every year and people still making the company rich. It’s usually always the poor who had the most braggy stuff
@@a7phy219 lol if you just got the 11, why would you want to the the 13 in October of this year? Again I don’t people like that. I bought the iPhone 6 in December of 2016 and it was per owned.

Idk what’s up with people who wants to have every single new shit that just came out , so they can show off on Public to people who don’t give a shit about your new stuff..but anybody can do with their money whatever the fuck they want.
I am im the same boat at the moment. My mom needs an upgrade from her iphone 6, was contemplating gerting her the iphone 12 mini because of battery life but worried she will miss the touch ID. Still trying to decide between the SE 2020 & 12 mini. This video helped a little though
I got a 6s and I’m upgrading tomorrow (which one should I get? iPhone XR or iPhone 11? I need a decent camera, has a good battery life, nice amount of camera storage and app storage for apps, and that’s all)
@@pawpaw4395 Thanks for the advice. Will probably let her try out the two phones and see whichever she prefers. I was leaning towards the 12 mini simply because of the longevity over the SE 2020
@@weheartdisney123 yea after a while i got used to it. But it’s a big difference the camera is better and the screen is a lot bigger I recommend to get it.
Great review. 2 SEs on the way; price is great, and for our long walks and running with music, audio books, and talks is so comfortable. In this respect, the home button is superior to the Mini facial recognition. Yes, the 12 Pro Max is the absolute bomb, and the rest phenomenal, but this one should fit the bill for 6 years or until the eyes go.
Coming from the 5 year old iphone 7, I got the very cheap SE 128 gb last week on roughly half its price because of boxing day :D Performance is very good and never lags, even in low power mode I've always used low power mode even playing heavy games which saves quite a ton of battery, lasting me over 4 hours on heavy games (genshin impact) Camera isn't the best but its very acceptable for its price I suggest this phone if you want a budget phone where you still like the iPhone 6 design, a phone that can allow 6 years of software support, decent camera and you don't care about long battery
The iPhone SE is selling for around $200 and the XR is about $350. Maybe I'll get the iPhone 11 when the price comes down. The video was very helpful, thanks.
thanks for the video i think im gonna go with the 11 then maybe upgrade to the 14 or 15 when they come out now its time to spend another week deciding on the color
The SE for half the price of the mini and fits easy in my pocket was the best choice I like the size and it does what it should do. I don’t need for the camera because my Sony RX100VI will blow them out of the water and the SE makes nice photos plus if you get a night shoot app you can also get nice photos instead of paying twice the price for a mini. SE was for me the best basic but affordable iPhone in years.
I upgraded from a 7 plus to a 12. I wanted the 12 pro max but didn’t want to wait months. I think I actually made the right decision. I think the pro max would be too heavy and big
the best comparison video I've seen yet! I've been browsing for days to get an idea about what iPhone i want without actually going to a store and see the total selection, thanks!!!! I NO LONGER HAVE TO GO THERE.

@@Etheldreda20 ah I see! I currently have an iPhone X & this iPhone is starting to bug out on me! I’m thinking of buying 12 pro max but I’m still not sure if it’s worth the money I’m still debating on it atm.. I cant decide!
iPhone SE: the Old school grandad iPhone XR: the 'it still works' dad iPhone 11: the 'omg pretty colours' mom/sister iPhone 12 mini: little brother iPhone 12: the normal sibling iPhone 12 pro: the premium sibling iPhone 12 pro max: the biggest/richest/spoilt sibling its a family
Your videos are very informative and precise with all the info anyone would need. You must put a lot into them so thanks for the great effort on your work.

One thing that would have been great to see in comparison would be to load a webpage of text, to show much text is shown on each screen. My understanding is that while XR and 12 have the same size display, XR has higher logical size, so actually fits more on text content on the scren.
I was attending online classes but it seems to be more important to watch😂
Thank you and hope you do well in school
@@zollotech thank you sir😊
Same
👀 Great comparison video. I went with the 12 Pro from 11 Pro Max. I wanted a smaller screen size, Qualcomm modem, and telephoto lens. Blessings on your day and I look forward to your content in 2021.
You are an incredible reviewer, detailed, thoughtful, and you have a pristine radio voice. Nice work sir
Just got an 11 (product red) like 3 months ago so i'm not going to buy a new one. But just listening to your voice, talking about tech is a treat :)
hi, hows the battery so far?
@@edmundmail4631 i’m really satisfied with the phone, and battery. It lasts me a day / day and a half. And i do a lot on all the socials for my channel. Best phone i’ve had so far (and i changed quite a bit lol)
@@VanTasticTraveling Thank you mate! might get one soon :)
@@edmundmail4631 Hope you enjoy it :)
The iPhone 11 the best deal🔥🔥🔥
Yes and xs
Yes sir
Yeah
Excellent review! Thank you for covering all the available models. I just ordered the 12 pro max today and was second guessing my choice but not anymore!
Didn't expect the photos from the iPhone SE to be THAT good in comparison with the other iPhones, pretty much the same quality from the main camera but not as versatile, really impressed, the audio is also pretty similar. Excellent comparison! I already have a powerful phone for serious camera-related situations (LG V60) so, I'll take the iPhone SE for more casual/everyday stuff as it's really tiny and light in comparison to my other phone,
Got the iphone 12 and honestly planning on keeping it for five years :)
Nice but it might not work top quality because phones are meant to last 2-3 years
@@abdimohamed4477 ya, I agree, it will definitely be slower but I plan on getting a new battery put in after a few years to give it more life again, and for the most part it looks like the phone should still be really good and fast in a few years since it has the new 5 nanometer process
@@noahskirtz9457 Just charge it at 30% battery level up to minimum 80%, if you follow this method you won’t need to change the battery even after 3 years. And also avoid charging while device is heated up.
@@ayaanbhattacharya4945 that’s what I try and implement so far and it has worked great for previous phones! :)
@@noahskirtz9457 That’s cool, enjoy the 12 :)
Thank you so much. I really appreciate your hard work in bringing the comparisons to us.
Just upgraded from an 8 plus to a 12 pro definitely feels like a substantial upgrade.
Iphone se is the one for me
I love simplicity and of course Touch ID, comfortable to hold, single camera in the back i just love it
I don't need much more than that
Best device comparison Review UA-cam has ever seen!!!
I Instantly liked & Subscribed
👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
iPhone 8 Plus with a new battery is great! Never experienced any slow downs with mine even on iOS 14.3
Well, if you update to the 12 Pro Plus, at least you'll b used to the size.
@@Cope1024 12 pro max* and chill not everybody wants to spend $1100 on a phone
When I went to have my iPhone 8 Plus’s battery replaced in 6/2020 they damaged the phone so they replaced the whole phone with a new exactly the same phone (space grey) and storage (256). So it runs very smoothly and it only cost me $49.00!
Just Bought an XR last month!
It’s Great!!
How is the battery life?
Suoerb battery life
I have it but want an upgrade
I think I and others will buy the 12 mini or 12 pro. The 13 should be out in a month or two but everyone knows that's bad juju.
How much price will be reduced in 12 after launch of 13 approximately??
@@sharadchand1519 by $200
Why is it bad juju
@@KoalaLuv Yeah fr
what about iPhone 13 mini?
great video, you helped me decide which one makes sense for me the most. I‘m going for the iphone 12:)
This guy is my ASMR. His voice is so relaxing, and you learn something while doing so.

Simply an excellent video review. Comprehensive and informative without floof - thank you!
A wonderful an detailed comparison as always 👍🏻. If someone wanted to buy a new iPhone and knew nothing about it, this video is like a manual.
Definitely the iPhone 12 Pro Max! I upgraded from the iPhone X. 💯👍
Coming from a cracked, slow, easily dead in 4 hours iPhone 7 Plus, any of these is a huge upgrade. Just ordered iPhone 11. I’m excited!
I went with the 11 ,3 months ago and planing of keeping it for the next 2 years
Only 2 years? I just bought the 11 1 month ago and I’m planning on keeping it for at least 4 years
In that case replacing the battery is a most
Selling the phone and add a little bit of money to buy a new one is better in 4 years the 11 will lost his value
@@theworldisimmense i just got the 11 and ima get the 13 when it comes out because it will be full screen
@@S.A_5w6 I mean I bought the XR after having the iPhone 6 for 3 years and a half on August 2020. But I bought it used and the battery health was at 87% but the battery was great even at 87% health. Then after almost 4 months , I traded in for the iPhone 11. I wanted to replace the battery but might as well get a brand new phone, brand new battery at 100% health and one more year of IOS updates so I made the right choice. I’m 2 years from now I’ll just get a new battery for $69. No need for new phone or because it will be full screen
And blah blah. Save your phone and invest it instead of buying dumb new stuff that it’s pretty much the same shit. This dude had an XR then just switch to the 12 and said overall that it’s the same shit with an oled screen whatever. I don’t get people like that. It’s not something like a play station , where they come up with a new one every 6-7 years. Se smartphone be coming out every year and people still making the company rich. It’s usually always the poor who had the most braggy stuff
@@a7phy219 lol if you just got the 11, why would you want to the the 13 in October of this year? Again I don’t people like that. I bought the iPhone 6 in December of 2016 and it was per owned. That phone last me 3 years and a half, even though the last 6 months my phone was turning randomly but still I made my phone last long as shit. Idk what’s up with people who wants to have every single new shit that just came out , so they can show off on Public to people who don’t give a shit about your new stuff..but anybody can do with their money whatever the fuck they want.
Got the SE for my mom for Christmas and she really likes it! Definitely an upgrade from her old iPhone 6 😂
Omg lol! I have a 6 and I'm upgrading to a SE next week 😂😂
I am im the same boat at the moment. My mom needs an upgrade from her iphone 6, was contemplating gerting her the iphone 12 mini because of battery life but worried she will miss the touch ID. Still trying to decide between the SE 2020 & 12 mini. This video helped a little though
@@hadinasir9702 I'm not sure if this helps but, I highly recommend the SE
I got a 6s and I’m upgrading tomorrow (which one should I get? iPhone XR or iPhone 11? I need a decent camera, has a good battery life, nice amount of camera storage and app storage for apps, and that’s all)
@@pawpaw4395 Thanks for the advice. Will probably let her try out the two phones and see whichever she prefers. I was leaning towards the 12 mini simply because of the longevity over the SE 2020
I had an iPhone 8 for years and just upgraded to an 11 yesterday I plan to keep this one for years too.😭
Did your hands get used to it? I’m scared the phone will be too big for my little hands🥲
@@weheartdisney123 yea after a while i got used to it. But it’s a big difference the camera is better and the screen is a lot bigger I recommend to get it.
XR ABSOLUTELY THE MOST BEAST PHONE 😈🔥
Any of the 12 series, or the SE
Great review. 2 SEs on the way; price is great, and for our long walks and running with music, audio books, and talks is so comfortable. In this respect, the home button is superior to the Mini facial recognition. Yes, the 12 Pro Max is the absolute bomb, and the rest phenomenal, but this one should fit the bill for 6 years or until the eyes go.
got the xr a week ago and damn this phone is really really fast and battery is litreally mind blowing
yes xr is best
It's bad😐
@@aayushgarg5753 no its not
@@Coc_tard its not bad i can tell you upgrade every year
@@sbekarton3458 nah I don't xr is just dodo
heyyy Iphone Xs Max gang thank you for helping me to choose this Beautiful iphone
10:31 12 pro makes the colors so vivid....😍😍😍it’s like you’re in a fairy tale 🍁🍃🐲😻🥰
Coming from the 5 year old iphone 7, I got the very cheap SE 128 gb last week on roughly half its price because of boxing day :D
Performance is very good and never lags, even in low power mode
I've always used low power mode even playing heavy games which saves quite a ton of battery, lasting me over 4 hours on heavy games (genshin impact)
Camera isn't the best but its very acceptable for its price
I suggest this phone if you want a budget phone where you still like the iPhone 6 design, a phone that can allow 6 years of software support, decent camera and you don't care about long battery
First utube video I watched to start the year! I got the iPhone 12 in pacific blue back in October when they launched!!
The iPhone SE is selling for around $200 and the XR is about $350. Maybe I'll get the iPhone 11 when the price comes down. The video was very helpful, thanks.
thanks for the video i think im gonna go with the 11 then maybe upgrade to the 14 or 15 when they come out now its time to spend another week deciding on the color
The SE for half the price of the mini and fits easy in my pocket was the best choice I like the size and it does what it should do. I don’t need for the camera because my Sony RX100VI will blow them out of the water and the SE makes nice photos plus if you get a night shoot app you can also get nice photos instead of paying twice the price for a mini. SE was for me the best basic but affordable iPhone in years.
Great video man.nice shots!
So the XR is still a really good choice in 2021(cuz I don’t use many cameras that much) right Aaron?
Yeah still pretty good. But maybe not as much for the battery though if you’re a heavy user.
Yeah get the XR, it’s almost the same as the iPhone 11 (11 is barley better) and since my 11 is good I recommend you for a XR
@@lukeszns it dont’t matter it be a new iPhones come out every year better than the next iPhone
Thanks so much for mentioning PWM.
Helped my decision for the XR.
I’m currently using the iPhone 8+ in 2021. It’s overall pretty good. I can play games with no issues and take good quality pictures.
I have already chosen, I got a black 12 couple weeks ago and I absolutely love it! Came from an iPhone 7 so it's a significant upgrade haha.
I upgraded from a 7 plus to a 12. I wanted the 12 pro max but didn’t want to wait months. I think I actually made the right decision. I think the pro max would be too heavy and big
I miss Touch ID though
Wow that was so much work! Thank you and Happy New Year from England 👍🏻
Thank you and Happy New Year
iphone 11 user here, coming from 6s. Loving every bit of experience with the 11
a great review _all inclusive of EVERY topic
Good luck man really love your content
I've just decided to pick iPhone 11. Thanks
I got my 11 as soon as it was available and I’m going to hang on to it for a while
The iPhone 12 because it can run 5G. At least future proof your device.
Or... just buy an iPhone when 5g becomes big
the best comparison video I've seen yet! I've been browsing for days to get an idea about what iPhone i want without actually going to a store and see the total selection, thanks!!!! I NO LONGER HAVE TO GO THERE.
4:21 The viewing angles are very good
*Proceeds to darken out viewing from the sides*
Wow great review! Thank you! I’ve been long overdue for an upgrade and needed this!
11 pro model owner here. Feel like we’ve been left out. Didn’t see the point in upgrading as theirs barely any difference between the 11 & pro. Besides the steel edge over the curves.
Got my 12 Pro Max this week and I gotta say the battery life is amazing
Hows it been going you liking it?
@@hq3359 I've been an android user so this was quite a change. I find this phone really good when it come to battery and camera the screen is amazing too. I sometimes find it having trouble with LTE connection something my Oneplus 7t never had but other than that it's been a solid device so far
@@Etheldreda20 ah I see! I currently have an iPhone X & this iPhone is starting to bug out on me! I’m thinking of buying 12 pro max but I’m still not sure if it’s worth the money I’m still debating on it atm.. I cant decide!
@@hq3359 what exactly do you want to find out? I could tell you almost everything I've seen and experienced with this phone
I have the 12, it’s been working great for me personally. It was a well worth update in my case.
does it have any issues now after 5 months or is it going great? I wanna get the 12 but I'm still not sure about it😅
gonna get an upgrade from 6s to 11! thank you so much.
I recently bought the 11 and it's amazing 😎
Is the display good?
@@Erik-qb5uw ye it’s awesome
@@Erik-qb5uw yup it’s a great display my 11 is good
It’s amazing
Sold iPhone 11. Picked up new Xr and refurbished SE 2020. Carry both daily. ✌🏾
Woww!! This is what we call a comparison video.. Great job
Thank you
Family members asked for recommendations: they live in rural Canada. The 11 series was a no brainer.
Bro, The best phone is : Nokia 3310. :)
iPhone SE: the Old school grandad
iPhone XR: the 'it still works' dad
iPhone 11: the 'omg pretty colours' mom/sister
iPhone 12 mini: little brother
iPhone 12: the normal sibling
iPhone 12 pro: the premium sibling
iPhone 12 pro max: the biggest/richest/spoilt sibling
its a family
Your videos are very informative and precise with all the info anyone would need. You must put a lot into them so thanks for the great effort on your work. I'm still going back and forth with the SE and the 12 Mini, weighing the cost. I want a smaller phone like my old 5S that I loved a few years back.
next week i am upgrading from iPhone 5 to 11 pro max, really excited!
Lol have you bought it yet my brotha? I am still using the iPhone SE (iPhone 5 model one) lmaoo
Wow
