Pros: Battery life, display quality, materials, audio, airdrop, photo and video quality, amazing video HDR, video stabilization
Cons: Size, price, accessories price, price of some apps in the store, front camera not wide enough
Opinion: I'm back at Apple after having had the iPhone 4 for 3 years way back in 2010, then I just had mid-to-high/high-end Android smartphones. Apple is on another level as materials and software optimization. It shows that the autonomy of the phone is amazing and to have a similar autonomy on Android you need a battery with a capacity at least 30% higher, with obvious repercussions on weight and size. The display is gorgeous, super bright but at the same time able to go down in low light better than any other phone, so perfect for viewing in total darkness. Everything is calibrated to perfection, the Face-ID, the light and orientation sensors, the GPS... The audio is great and the materials are amazing. You charge a lot but you have the feeling of having something of value in your hands, which deserves it. Nevertheless it is true, the price is high and even more so is that of accessories. The magsafe cover costs 65 € and if you combine it with the magsafe car support you have to add another 45, which brings the total to 110 € when before you did everything with 30-40 €. True, the "classic" accessories of other brands are still available, but why give up the innovations that the phone brings in dowry? Airdrop is very convenient to transfer files quickly with other Apple devices as well as it is inconvenient to have a cloud integrated with iPad and Macbook. In a year I went from all Android and Windows to all Apple and I don't regret it. I spent a lot but even if I wanted there are no alternatives even at the same price that are able to offer the same performance and the same hardware quality. Not to mention cloud integration and portable devices (such as bluetooth earphones). The quality of the photos is great. If they are made with pumpkin salt and posted on social networks like instagram, they are almost indistinguishable from those made with a camera (even fullframe like my A7III). Obviously if they are seen on a display of 10 " up you notice. I posted some of them here on the forum too. The portrait functionality is amazing and people are amazed when I tell them that they are photos taken with the phone. The video quality is impressive, I turn the vlogs taking advantage of an excellent stabilization, an HDR video almost embarrassing for real cameras and all with a clean audio and rich in bass. To finance the purchase of the iPhone and simplify my vlogs I sold an Android tablet, an Android smartphone and a lens (the Voigtlander 40 1.2) and after 7 months I overconfirm the choice I made. The phone in the Pro Max version is too big for most people, in which I do not include myself but I recognize that it is a big phone. I do not appreciate the fact that many apps in the app store are paid for right away, thus risking losing money if you buy an app that does not match our needs. Mine is 256 gb, the right size in my opinion. If you want I could also recommend it in the 128 gb version but lose a couple of functions (minority, like the ProRes video that I have never used because it occupies 6 gb for every minute of video). The top cuts for me are useless unless you take a flood of photos and videos without an internet connection to the cloud. To give an example, for a 3-day vlog with several photos also raw and many videos all 4k 25fps or 60fps I occupied 16-17 gb. :) POLEMIC ANGLE I would like the front camera to have a wider angle of view. Probably in the future they will invent an iPhone 14 or 15 with a dual selfie camera and everyone will say that it is the best iPhone ever and how innovative this invention is, that it will be charged 50-100 € more and that could have been implemented 5 years earlier. And people will queue to get it and shout OMMIODDIOO during unboxing. Okay, that's how it goes. |
