APPLE SPECIAL EVENT


Apple calls its new display the Super Retina XDR
– to match the branding of the $5,999 (UK price to be
announced) Pro Display – and it’s brought a slew of
enhancements, including the highest pixel density in an
iPhone screen and a 2,000,000:1 contrast ratio, which
is twice as much as before. It’s also rated for 1,
nits of max brightness and is 15 percent more energy
efficient. And it won’t break as easily either – it’s got
stronger glass than the iPhone 11, too.

The battery
Apple iPhones have always had great battery life, but
the iPhone 11 Pro and 11 Pro Max push it even further.
On the iPhone XS and XS Max, Apple touted up to 14
hours of video playback, but on the 2019 Pro models,
battery life has been vastly improved:

iPhone 11 Pro: 4 hours longer
iPhone 11 Pro Max: 5 hours longer

That pretty much means you’ll never have to worry
aboutchargingyour phonethroughoutthe day. It would
have been nice to get an always‑on display to go with
all that extra juice, but we’ll take what we can get.

The charger
After 11 years, Apple has finally realized that the 5W
power adaptor that has come with its iPhones since
the beginning isn’t enough for power users. So if you
buy an iPhone Pro, you’ll get an 18W adaptor, which
Apple normally sells for £29. That means the new
iPhone Pros can take advantage of fast charging out of
