The new models in the iPhone 11 series have been presented as the most powerful smartphones on the market by Apple, and in some respects this may be true. The US manufacturer has shown that it can develop extremely powerful chipsets for mobile platforms, but simple performance tests cannot tell the whole "story" of a smartphone.

Thus, we decided to compare all aspects of the new iPhone "Pro" with those of other flagships on the market, putting them in direct comparison with the models that are its direct competitor.

We have to consider, however, that Apple is a very secretive company when it comes to hardware specifications, so we don't have clear information about RAM and batteries in new phones, but just estimates based on past leaks. We will know these details exactly as soon as the phones get into the hands of entities like iFixit, which completely dismantles the devices and analyzes each component separately.

iPhone 11 vs. Galaxy S10e, Pixel 3A XL, Huawei P30 Lite

The iPhone 11, the basic model, is more of a "budget flagship" than a true high-end model. It comes equipped with the same top Bionic A13 processor from Apple and with the same new wide and ultra-wide cameras and with Apple's newest operating system, iOS 13.

This version of the iPhone 11 series is in direct competition with Samsung's budget model launched half a year ago. For a "mid-range" comparison, we also added the Pixel 3 XL and Huawei P30 Lite models, although in terms of processing power and price, they are part of another product category. However, Huawei and Google are not launching three models with high-end basic hardware, based on standard and "Pro" / XL models.

iPhone 11 Pro vs. Galaxy Note10, Pixel 3, OnePlus 7, Huawei P30

In the case of iPhone 11 Pro we have to deal with more "serious" competition, having on the market several major flagships that enter in direct competition. All these models are launched to cover the market segment of high-end phones with not very large screens, equipped with top components and advanced functions. Of course, the price of the other models is not as high as in the case of the iPhone 11 Pro.

iPhone 11 Pro Max vs. Galaxy Note10+, Huwei P30 Pro, Pixel 3 XL, OnePlus 7 Pro

iPhone 11 Pro Max is Apple's strongest and largest phone, and in the high-end market segment there is very serious competition right now. We are talking about the most powerful phones, equipped with all the top technologies of the companies, the best cameras and the best screens on the market. Here's how the iPhone 11 Pro compares to Google, Samsung, OnePlus and Huawei.

Conclusion

Apple's new smartphones are by no means as technologically outdated as they were rumored to be before launch. They integrate the most powerful processors to date, some of the best displays on the market and are made from high quality materials. The design seems to be a bit outdated compared to the other manufacturers, who have adopted a more subtle cut in the screen, or have resorted to other design tricks to get rid of notch.

On paper, Apple also has some disadvantages to other companies in the market, such as lack of card slot, lack of bilateral wireless charging or a lower frequency display. Apple claims that they have cought up with the other manufacturers in terms of camera, but we will have to test that to make sure it is true.
