By naming this event “By innovation only,” Apple is really raising expectations for Tuesday, an event thus far expected to focus on iterative iPhone and Apple Watch updates. Internally, I’m told, attention has turned to more groundbreaking 2020 devices. Let’s see.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

That seems to have been accurate.<\/p>\n\n

iPhone 11 Pro introduces a transformative triple-camera system with all-new Ultra Wide, Wide and Telephoto cameras, deeply integrated into iOS to create a pro-level camera experience designed for everyone.<\/p>\n

[…]<\/p>\n

A redesigned camera interface provides a more immersive experience that works together with the triple-camera system and all-screen display to let users see and capture the area outside of the frame. For the first time, users can easily record video without switching out of Photo mode with QuickTake by simply holding the shutter button to start recording.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

What if you want to take burst photos? Hopefully, there’s a preference.<\/p>\n\n

Apple’s new Night Mode (not to be confused with the new Dark Mode interface option in iOS 13) is Apple’s rejoinder to Google’s Night Sight, and from the little we’ve seen so far, the results do look at least on par with the Pixel.<\/p>

When using the camera app on any of Apple’s 2019 iPhones, the new Night Mode feature comes on automatically when an indoor or outdoor scene is dark enough to warrant brightening, resulting in natural colors and reduced noise.<\/p>

In short, new iPhone users should see an immediate improvement when shooting in low light environments, without having to adjust any exposure settings.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

However, despite Apple’s boast that the year-old iPhone XR remains faster than the competition, Night Mode seems to be exclusive to iPhone 11, whereas Night Sight works on the Pixel 2 from 2017.<\/p>\n\n

The new backs on iPhone 11\/pro are actually more tacky and less slippery than XS. Quite nice feel in hand IMO.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n
