we are already in the week Black Friday 2022and those who are considering buying a new Apple smartphone but can’t afford the latest iPhone 14, are starting to explore other Apple options for investing.
Therefore Technology World By making a comparison between the iPhone 11 and the iPhone 13, it is among the options that the consumer starts to look more carefully at the end of the year. See which model might be more interesting to invest in for Black Friday 2022.
design
A newer model released in 2021, the iPhone 13 has some major visual changes compared to its 2019 predecessor. the notch is about 20% smaller.
Moreover, Ceramic Shield protectionThis helps the device to have a long life, although both have glass and aluminum construction. on both devices IP68 protectionIt is fully protected against dust and immersion in water up to 3 meters.
There are also some changes to the camera module. The duo is betting on a grid system with sensors, but the location of that has changed. The older mobile has a column with two main cameras, while the latest one keeps it diagonally.
Screen
The iPhone 11 and iPhone 13 screen also have considerable differences, especially if we talk about the panel. Both models have a 6.1-inch display, but the first has this type of panel: Liquid Retina IPS LCDIt works in 828×1792 Full HD+ resolution.
On the other hand, it has a more solid display due to the second device. Super Retina XDR displayIt uses OLED technology and is capable of delivering more vibrant colors, better contrast and darker black levels. In addition, although the resolution is Full HD +, its dimensions increase to 1170×2532, increasing the sharpness of the displayed content.
settings
When we talk about technical configurations, there is a significant change in terms of processing. I have iPhone 11 A13 Bionic ProcessorManufactured in 7nm lithography; While the iPhone 13 is already using the powerful one A15 Bionicalready produced at only 5 nm and Compatibility with 5G networks🇧🇷 This is echoed in the Neural Cores units, which are the chips responsible for the Artificial Intelligence of devices with 8 and 16 cores, respectively.
Also on both mobile phones 4GB RAM memoryand 256GB internal storage options. As a result, even the weakest chip will satisfy the simplest Apple user, but if what you’re looking for is raw performance for games or more complex applications, the iPhone 13 is the smartphone that delivers.
In tests conducted by the site AgainstIn Geekbench, it is possible to observe that there is a 52% difference in multi-core and 29% in single-core mobile phones. Currently, Antutu has a good margin for the iPhone 13, outperforming its predecessor by 78%.
Counter/Reproduction cameras
In terms of cameras, both models have very similar features. THEM The main camera has a resolution of 12 megapixels, as well as the ultra-wide sensor. The front module also has 12 MP on both devices. While recording, you can shoot video at 2160p at 60 frames per second on the main camera.
The main difference in the main camera of the iPhone 13 is not in the resolution, but in the focal aperture, which increases from f / 1.6 to f / 1.8. Also the sensor has been changed and now improves the lighting as it allows up to 47% more light input.
Drum
As for the battery, the energy autonomy of the two smartphones is very similar: 3110 mAh (iPhone 11) and 3240 mAh (iPhone 13). The two support fast charging at 18 and 20W respectively. While the numbers are similar thanks to improvements made to the A15 Bionic chip, iPhone 13 takes longer to play videossurfing the internet and playing games.
operational system
Both devices use the latest Apple released iOS 16 operating system, but these devices are logically updated. Because it is newer, the iPhone 13 will receive more operating system updates from Apple, while the iPhone 11 will “stop” receiving these updates in the near future. However, the old handset will continue to receive security updates for a long time, as it is simply out of compatibility with the next released iOS.
What to buy on Black Friday?
Now that you are aware of the differences between smartphones, the question remains which of the two to take home. Of course, the iPhone 13, which has a 2-year launch difference between each device, includes important changes that can make a difference for many users.
When we put the price into this equation, the differences become even more obvious. The iPhone 11 in a simpler 128GB version can be found in Brazilian retail for an average of around R$3,400. On the other hand, the iPhone 13 with the same amount of storage already costs around R$4,800 in some Brazilian stores and over R$6,000 in the official Apple store.
The minimum price difference is around R$1,400, which makes it questionable whether the iPhone 13 is really a viable option for those looking to save even more. While there are occasional improvements to the processor, screen and battery, and camera, price is a barrier.
So, if the goal is to spend less and still have good autonomy and a few years of updates, the iPhone 11 can really be a viable option. If money isn’t the problem, but the R$6,500 charged for the iPhone 14 is too much, the iPhone 13 fights well. The most interesting midpoint will therefore be the iPhone 12.
