iPhone 11 Pro Going back to the X from 11 Pro

[JacksonCraig94]

Call me mad but I’m currently looking on Facebook Marketplace for a decent condition iPhone X. I can’t get on with my 11 Pro. It’s far too heavy, chunky and I prefer the X back and camera design. I also find the ultra wide lens awful. It makes everything look stretched so I don’t bother using it.

You have to be happy with a device you're using everyday so at least you gave the pro a try and you know it's not for you.

The 11 series is way too heavy. Even my XS is too heavy. I’d rather have a less premium feeling phone that’s much lighter. If iPhones continue getting heavier, I’ll be tempted to get an Android. Pixels and Galaxies/Notes feel like a feather in the hand in comparison to all iPhones.

Ergonomics >> battery size, premium materials

I love the iPhone 11 Pro. I amazed how nice it feels to hold, how buttery smooth the operation is, and how good the camera is. Taking pictures in near darkness is great. Ok’ing from an iPhone 8. The battery life on the 11 is wonderful. Most days it’s around 75% at the end of the day.

But to the OP, go for what makes you happy.

I’ll take a little weight any day if it means significantly better battery.

I heard the A11 has an overheating issue with iOS 13. Is that true?

Nope. That is not the case for me anyway.

I like my 11 Pro, but I came from the XR. I agree with you about the camera design. I’m not into photography except for snapping a few quick photos on a trip or with my family, so I’d be just fine with a single lens camera.

Heard? Or read? Specifically, where did you hear that from?

Heard? Or read? Specifically, where did you hear that from?

Reddit as well as YouTube. Can’t remember what channels but I’ve watched a couple that both mentioned overheating issues with the iPhone X.

 

[Zaft]

I do agree it’s a tad heavy but weren’t people complaining that they didn’t care about weight or thickness and wanted battery life?

well that’s exactly what Apple did.

Follow up: I’ve managed to sell my iPhone 11 Pro and got a iPhone X off Facebook Marketplace for £410 which is like new condition. I have to say I’m so glad I went back to the X.

Glad you got something that makes you happy, but certainly be prepared for the worse photos, videos, and battery.

If your priority is what iphone X offer and 11 Pro don't, it's okay. Be satisfied with your choice.

I wish I did not see this thread... I currently have an iPhone X which I have been pleased with and am about to upgrade to the 11 Pro Max...

iOS 13 3.1 seems bad on batteries. My X is fine but on 13.3 while my 11 is on .1

Camera on X has much to be desired and was a large part of my getting the 11, not even Pro or Max model.

 

[PVDHell]

Was sorely tempted to trade in my Xs for an 11pro. But I don’t see the upgrade as compelling enough right now. I’ll wait till we get 5G

Far two heavy? The weight difference doesn’t make it that drastically different.

Errr no. Battery life is important thus their decision to increase thickness for the battery in the 11 pro vs the X and XS.

From when I had my X I had no issues

I prefer the slight weight difference between the X and 11 pro. You’re going to have it anyways between a X and 11 pro max because of size anyways. The phone is more substantial in your hands with the weight difference.

I can go without my mobile phone until it needs to be charged again..

Glad you're happy with the X but as a former X owner I can never go back just for the camera and battery life alone.

To me the 11 Pro Max is better in every conceivable way ... so there's nothing to worry about. I wouldn't downgrade back to the X if you paid me.

After seeing your insta tag and how much you like a selfie, should of kept the pro
