Apple iPhone 11 Pro Max review: Making iPhones great again

Over the past few years, when reviewers like us argued about iPhones falling behind Android devices, we were primarily talking about the camera. Let’s face it, iPhones were never slow, they never had displays that would qualify as poor, and depending on your usage the app ecosystem on iOS is arguably better than that on Android.

But, with the advancements companies like Huawei, Google and Samsung made on the camera front, Apple fell behind. Over the past year, our primary phone was an iPhone XS, which we used for everything except clicking photos. Because the Google Pixel 3 was just miles ahead in that aspect.

Well, in 2019, Apple’s back. The company held its lead over Android cameras for ages. In fact, long ago when Android phone makers boosted camera resolutions, Apple stuck to an 8MP resolution but iPhones shot better photos than any Android phone.
