The Best iPhones

With its triple-lens rear-facing 12MP cameras that include Night Mode, upgraded battery life, and rave reviews since it was released in September 2019, the iPhone 11 Pro will most likely be a strong competitor for at least a few years to come. 

One of the first and foremost most talked about features mentioned in reviews is the iPhone 11 Pro’s camera capabilities. Touting one of the best low-light capabilities ever in a handset, 12MP triple-lens rear-facing cameras that include regular, telephoto, and ultra-wide settings. Night Mode still shoots rather clearly during low-light situations, and portrait mode is beautiful. 

Camera aside, the 5.8-inch iPhone 11 Pro is the one to get if you want the most advanced iPhone (next to the upcoming iPhone 12 models) packed into a moderately sized device that’s easy to use with one hand and can fit into a pocket.  

With rave reviews across the board, even still as the iPhone 12 models are being released soon, the iPhone 11 pro seems to be the one to buy if you can afford the extra few hundred dollars to step up from the regular iPhone 11 and get yourself the extra features that lack if they suit your needs, like the telephoto lens and missing OLED screen of the entry-model iPhone 11. 

If you want a big-screen iPhone for less, the iPhone XR has your bases covered. While this phone was released around two years ago, it still holds up well against newer models. 

Newer iPhone models do have a faster processor, but the A12 Bionic still holds its own with no issues. The XR has an LCD panel as opposed to new models that have OLED, and you’ll have to get by with a single rear-facing camera. For most users, however, those aren’t significant sacrifices for what you get in return. 

On par with the iPhone 11 and lasting only about 15 minutes shorter than the iPhone 11 Pro Max’s testing, the battery life of the iPhone XR lasts for nearly 12 hours. It will last you all day and then some, taking the stress off of having to make sure that your phone is constantly connected to a power source or having to carry around portable chargers all the time during your day-to-day life. 

An additional point worth noting is that the iPhone XR comes in a rainbow of six colour options for those who value design or simply want a brighter pop of colour for their phone, as opposed to the usual shades of grey or silver. 

With Apple’s most advanced handset to date, the iPhone 12 Pro steps up the already incredible camera of the previous years iPhone 11 Pro, includes the lightning-fast A14 Bionic chipset, and the new LiDAR scanner technology – this might be Apple’s most impressive release so far. 

Starting storage space is 128GB, you shouldn’t have to worry about running out of space at the base level like with previous models that started at only 64GB. Plenty of space for any photos or videos you take even at the full capabilities of the iPhone 12 Pro, like shooting In 4K video. 

The iPhone 12 Pro has an upgraded RAM from 4GB to 6GB, ensuring that if you need to edit any photo or videos within the handset, you can do so with minimal issue if any at all. No lag or crashing. Worth noting alongside the video capabilities is the audio quality that the iPhone 12 Pro brings to the table. It can blast audio at full volume without sounding tinny or dull. As with most iPhones lately – there is no headphone jack, so if you still use wired earbuds or headphones, you’ll need to get an adapter. 

 Other than the amazing camera and audio, it’s business as usual for the iPhone 12 Pro, with a lot of the same specs as the iPhone 12. If you want a phone that has all the extra oomph and the added camera quality is worth it, this is a must-have. 

If you’re in the market to get your teenager a phone and don’t want to spend a substantial amount of money on an iPhone just so that it’ll get wrecked within a short few weeks (or even days, you never know) – The iPhone 8 has you covered. 

With the iPhone 8 still standing strong amongst Apple’s other handsets, the iPhone 8 is still a decent buy for the now cut costs since newer models were released. Instead of dropping the iPhone 8 and not updating it, Apple has stated that it will receive the update to iOS 14 sometime at the end of 2020, ensuring that it will still work for years to come. 

Unlocking the phone with Apple’s Touch ID fingerprint scanning might be at an advantage with the current state of things as opposed to face unlock that can be obscured by masks and be frustrating. 

If you want to get an iPhone that can handle some bumps, still work well, and include all of the usual bells and whistles iPhone is known for a great camera, video capabilities, and won’t break the bank if it gets broken or lost like what can happen with most teenagers – this is a good deal to go with. Especially knowing that if it does last, you won’t have to get a new one anytime soon as it won’t be obsolete or out of the running.

Rounding out Apple’s newest iPhone line with the iPhone 12, 12 Pro, 12 mini, and iPhone 12 Pro Max – There’s a lot to take in, and even more to love with this large-sized handset. 

If money is no object and you want to get the best and latest iPhone, the iPhone has your interests in mind. With the same specs as the iPhone 12 Pro, but within an even bigger package with a 6.7-inch display, and while the camera is similar to the iPhone 12 Pro, it allows for even more close-up zooming. 

Whether your day mostly consists of work or play, the iPhone 12 Pro Max won’t let you down. Streaming videos, binge-watching your favourite TV shows, taking immaculate high-resolution photos and 4K video, or just emailing and transferring work from the office, this beast of a handset will not disappoint. 

Across the board, all three iPhone 12 models have OLED displays, are IP68 rated for water-resistance, have magnetic backings that work with the newest MagSafe chargers, and have newer updated ceramic glass screens that offer up to 4x the durability of previous iPhone models. Worth noting about the body is that the iPhone 12 Pro Max has the same stainless-steel body that the iPhone 12 Pro does making it even more durable than the iPhone 12 that has a body made from aluminum.
