Video leak shows Apple’s iPhone 11 and iPhone 11 Max designs side by side

Just a few short months ago, Apple’s
next-generation iPhone 11 lineup was shaping up to be one of the most boring
iPhone updates in recent history. It couldn’t be 
the most boring
iPhone update, since there’s no way Apple will be able to top the iPhone XS in
that department. Thankfully, a few new reports from well-placed sources over
the past few weeks have painted a much more compelling picture of the iPhone
11. While the overall design of Apple’s upcoming new iPhone lineup will remain
largely unchanged, we’ve seen more and more news of big upgrades lately. Most
recently, the world’s top Apple insider reported that 
Apple’s iPhone 11 and iPhone 11 Max will both featuretriple-lens rear cameras that pack all
sorts of new tricks, while the iPhone 11R (or whatever Apple ends up calling
it) will sport an upgraded dual-lens camera. On top of all that, Apple has big
things planned for iOS 13 and some of the details surrounding the company’s
upcoming new mobile software update 
havealready leaked.
Long story short, 2019 is looking a bit
brighter for Apple fans than it was a couple of months ago. iPhone owners who
don’t plan to upgrade to a new phone will still have a pretty huge software
update to look forward to in September (or in June, if they’re brave enough to
install the early beta versions following WWDC 2019). Meanwhile, people who do
upgrade will apparently get an updated design, plenty more power, and a massive
camera upgrade that’s much-needed, considering how far Apple has fallen behind
the likes of Google and Huawei in this crucial area. If you’re wondering what
all that will look like when it comes together, a new leak that just hit the
web this morning is just what the doctor ordered. The video in question shows
Apple’s final iPhone 11 and iPhone 11 Max designs side by side, and it shows
what they’ll look like in real life as opposed to just pictures.
Remember back in 2016 when Apple released theiPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus? They used the exact same designs as the iPhone 6s
series that came before them, and the iPhone 6 series that came before that. In
order to make up for that, Apple introduced some sleek new finishes, a bunch of
new features, and an upgraded dual-lens camera on the larger iPhone 7 Plus. It
worked quite will for the company — Apple sold a record 78.29 million iPhones
in the holiday quarter following the iPhone 7’s release. That’s a record that
still stands to this day.
It appears as though Apple’s 2019 iPhone lineup
is going to follow the same pattern as far as design and features are
concerned. From afar, the iPhone 11 will look just like the iPhone X that was
released two years before it. The iPhone 7 from 2016 looked just like the
iPhone 6 from 2014. But leaks have shown us that Apple is planning a huge
upgrade for the iPhone 11’s camera, and reports from insiders suggest a few
important design changes such as a new finish and new frosted glass on the back.



It will still be a while before we know exactly what Apple hasin store for us in 2019, but a new leak gives us a very good idea of what to
expect. Using schematics that had previously leaked from a factory set to
manufacture Apple’s upcoming iPhone 11 series phones, 3D printed dummy models
of the upcoming iPhone 11 and iPhone 11 Max have made their way to Alibaba.
Japanese Apple news blog MacOtakara recently purchased a pair,
and on Thursday the blog posted a video of them in action.
Again, these are notactually Apple’s upcoming new iPhones. That said, they are models that were
built to scale using schematics that are believed to be accurate, so they’re
almost certainly a very good representation of what we can expect from the
iPhone 11 and iPhone 11 Max when they’re announced in September. The video
showing the mockups is embedded below.
