I watched the announcement really trying to find an excuse to upgrade. But to be honest there was not a single new feature that I really wanted and that my current iPhone 6S couldn't do. Pity.
While I understand the need to make the camera more powerful (and it's one of the iPhone's truly outstanding capabilities), I just can't understand how Apple decided the design of iPhone 11. (not the Pro) Was that new camera system really needed in iPhone 11? It... well... just literally spoiled the design... I understand the need of iPhone 11 Pro's cameras... but really? the 11?
Most people buy the XR/11 phone. So obviously the volume phone needs a camera upgrade too. I don’t think most buyers (even of Apple phones) care much about the esthetics and design of the thing.
This is probably the least interesting new iPhone ever released.
I think phone advancement cycles have hit a point where I'm kind of underwhelmed from everyone and that's fine. I just want Apple to come out with one using USB-C instead of Lightning (to match iPad Pro and MacBook Pro and being able to rid myself of my lightning cables), 5G (for future proofing), and maybe in-display fingerprint.
I could go for a model like that and my next upgrades will probably just be the batteries until it bites the dust.
Seems to be a camera with a phone app
Come on, Apple. 13mm, 26mm, and 52mm lenses? Have you even watched people use your phones? They always zoom in (like, 10x). A 3x optical would have been much nicer. 4x and I would have preordered.
Since it's quite obscure from the product page. Starting prices: - iPhone 11: $699 (64GB) - iPhone 11 Pro: $999 (64GB) - iPhone 11 Pro Max: $1099 (64GB)
11 Pro 512GB - $1349
11 Pro Max 256GB - $1249
11 Pro Max 512GB - $1449
I had just convinced myself that I could probably deal with the size of the X and then they went and got rid of even that one in favor of something even larger as their smallest offering. Bleh

They improved every aspect of the phone. Each is a feat of engineering unto itself. What were you hoping for?
Disappointing that the base configuration of the iPhone 11 Pro has 64 GB of storage. If you're going to call it Pro and talk about how you can shoot professional video, you can't ship it with 64 GB of storage. EDIT: Also, they don't let you jump to 128 GB. You have to go to 256 GB, for $150 more. I can see why they didn't talk about this at the event. People would have booed.
