The iPhone 11 can use both rear cameras to record
4K video at 60 frames per second. The ultra wide
lens lets you see more scenery – up to four times
more. Another interesting feature: when you zoom

QuickTake. If you’re in Photo mode and you decide
that you want to shoot a video instead, all you have
to do is tap and hold the shutter button and the
iPhone will switch to video recording. iOS 13 also
features new video‑editing tools to make it easier
to edit on the iPhone.12Mp TrueDepth front camera

capture uses 4K video either 60 ‑ or 120fps.A13 Bionic processor

Apple also says the A13 Bionic, “is built for
machine learning”, sporting a faster Neural
Engine Machine Learning Accelerators “that
allow the CPU to deliver more than 1 trillion
operations per second”.28 Macworld • October 2019
