Switch from iPhone 8 to iPhone 11 Pro! Then, it was a device that made it easy to take beautiful pictures.
Finally, I switched from iPhone 8 to iPhone 11 Pro.
I was worried about going from Touch ID to Face ID and the large display, but I surprisingly got used to it once I used it.
The iPhone 11 Pro has a very good camera function and is a terminal that makes taking pictures fun.
After switching to the iPhone 11 Pro, I tried using it to the fullest, so I will review it based on the good and disappointing points.

First, I will write about why I switched to the iPhone 11 Pro, although I was stubbornly stuck with Touch ID on iPhone 8.
- Attracted by advanced camera functions
- Inspired by midnight green
- I wanted to use the evolved iPhone
The iPhone 8 is still in active use, and I had no complaints, but after using it for about two years, I became interested in the iPhone 11 Pro as a new thing lover. I decided to switch to iPhone 11 Pro mainly for the above three reasons! It's a simple reason, but as an Apple product lover, I couldn't help but want to try the iPhone 11 Pro.
There's something about Apple products that draws you in.

The biggest differences between the iPhone 11 Pro and iPhone 8 are the CPU and camera functions, display size, display type, and authentication method.
The main feature of the iPhone 11 Pro is a significant improvement in camera functions.
You can expect a wide range of photography from a single lens (wide angle) to a triple lensiPhone (ultra wide angle, wide angle, telephoto).
IPhone 11 Pro photo review
I set the capacity to 64GB because I didn't even use 50GB when I used iPhone 8 with 256GB.
The only thing that mainly uses the capacity of the iPhone itself is music data, and photos are stored in the cloud, such as Amazon Photos and iCloud.
If you save it in the cloud, even if you delete the photo on the main unit, you can always see it on the cloud and take it out. So it's a convenient time.
This method is unsuitable for those who play a lot of apps and games, so let's review how to use it.
The following article also describes the capacity, so if you are interested, please refer to it.
Package contents
- iPhone 11 Pro body
- USB-C to Lightning Cable
- 18W USB-C power adapter
- EarPods
From 2019, the "18W USB-C power adapter" is included, and only one Lightning cable is compatible with USB-C.
I'm happy to be able to charge quickly, but I wanted it to be gracious and compatible with all USB Type-C.
Beautiful midnight green
The color I bought is the new midnight green.
I watched many videos and images before buying it, but when I took it in my hand, the color was pretty good.
As it is called Midnight, I thought it was a deep green, but it is a light green, and the calm color is nice.
The "iPhone" logo on the back has disappeared from the iPhone 11 Pro, giving it a somewhat cleaner design.

The back is made of frosted glass, which is smooth and comfortable and is resistant to fingerprints and scratches.
I've been using it without a case since I bought it, but thanks to the frosted glass effect, there are no noticeable scratches.
Maybe I have invisible scars in my life, but I don't have any scars that I'm worried about.
The scratch-resistant design is great for those who want to use their iPhones naked.
I don't want to damage the screen, so I use a protective film that doesn't damage the Super Retina XDR (organic EL).
I also tried the power support Air Jacket case, but since it's an Air Jacket, I can use it as if I didn't have a light and thin case.
If you want to protect the back of your iPhone 11 Pro, we recommend the Power Support Air Jacket.
We recommend the integrated "SMA-BELT Thin SMA-Belt iPhone 11 Pro case "if you want to use a bunker ring together.
For those who want to use the iPhone 11 Pro naked, we recommend the "wraps for iPhone11 Pro skin sticker". So I can enjoy the design of the iPhone 11 Pro. It protects me from scratches and feels good to operate.
After all, the curve of the iPhone 11 Pro is beautiful.
After all, the voluptuous beauty of the iPhone is good.
I want to see this luxurious curvaceous beauty, which is why I use an iPhone, and it satisfies my desire to own it. The side part is also greenish, and there is a sense of unity, which is beautiful. The right side has a mute button and a volume control button.
On the left side are the side button and SIM slot.
The side button is a button for activating Siri and Wallet. You must simultaneously press the volume down button and the side button to turn it on and off.
The bottom part has a speaker, a built-in microphone, and a Lightning connector.
Super Retina XDR on display is beautiful and enchanting
The iPhone 11 Pro is equipped with Super Retina XDR, which is more beautiful than the Retina HD on the iPhone 8.
It's a pity that it's hard to convey in the photo, but the color development is completely different.
From iOS13, a dark mode can be selected, and Super Retina XD makes black stand out more.
Black, as if being drawn into a black hole.
Since it is a beautiful display, I put a glossy protective film on it to prevent scratches. The transparency is also high, so you can enjoy a beautiful display.
From iPhone 11 Pro to triple camera
Since the iPhone 11 Pro has a triple camera of ultra-wide angle, wide angle, and telephoto, it has three lenses.
There are pros and cons to the design of the iPhone, but when you see and touch it, you can feel how cool it is. Apple magic.
It's hard to convey how cool it is just by looking at the pictures, so if you're hesitant about buying it because of the design, I'd like you to touch the actual machine before deciding.
The camera part is almost flat compared to the iPhone 8.
It protrudes 1-2mm, so the left side will float if you place the camera face down. If you are concerned about the protrusion of the camera, one way to protect it is with a case.
Satisfied with the evolved iPhone 11 Pro camera function
Everyone knows that the camera function of the iPhone 11 Pro has been greatly improved. (Compatible with optical zoom equivalent to 13-52mm)
I had seen a lot of examples in videos and photos and knew how great the camera was, but when I used it, I was surprised to see the evolution of the iPhone 8.
You do if you own an iPhone 11 Pro. don't need a single-lens reflex or mirrorless single-lens camera! I've been asked that but all of them have advantages and disadvantages, so there are places where I can't leave everything to the iPhone 11 Pro.
The iPhone 11 Pro is a great device for capturing and saving memories of everyday life.
I will introduce photos and videos of when I went on a trip to Hokkaido.
iPhone 11 Pro camera capabilities (ultra wide angle, wide angle, telephoto, night mode)
Super wide angle
Wide angle
Telephoto
Telephoto can be digitally zoomed up to 10x.
A little noise comes in, but you can take beautiful pictures incomparable to the iPhone 8.
night mode
The power of night mode is very good. It was pitch black, but I could get some bright shots.
The great thing about the iPhone 11 Pro's night mode is that it automatically recognizes and shoots smoothly in night mode when you start the camera app.
By the way, the Pixel 3a was manually set and then shot, so you'll be less likely to miss the moment.
You can take some fun pictures depending on how you use the ultra-wide-angle mode.
iPhone 11 Pro has the ability to video (handshake, slow shooting, time-lapse)
The shooting method is 1080p HD / 30 fps, so the image quality is not very good, but I hope you can feel that there is little camera shake.
With the iPhone 11 Pro, I could enjoy shooting slow-moving videos. I took a timelapse of the sky with the iPhone 11 Pro. Since I only used my hand to fix it, I got tired and drifted to the right little by little. However, if you can fix it firmly, you can shoot beautifully even with the iPhone 11 Pro.
Face ID is surprisingly responsive, but I still miss Touch ID
I used Face ID for the first time since the iPhone 11 Pro, but I find it surprisingly convenient.
Just by tilting the iPhone 11 Pro body slightly toward your face, it will recognize it, and it will recognize it in a wide range. Even if I wear glasses, it recognizes my face when I wake up and unlocks it, so I felt it was more convenient than I thought. However, I feel inconvenienced in some places, such as wearing a mask, resting my chin, and not recognizing that my face shape has changed.
Besides that, I feel inconvenient that the iPhone itself is not recognized when it is laid down or laid down. (If you tilt it to about 45 degrees, it will unlock.)
Moreover, even if you unlock it with Face ID, it is one of the dissatisfaction that it does not immediately move to the home screen.
With Touch ID, you only need your fingerprint, so you don't have to worry about the device's position.
After all, I was able to reconfirm that Touch ID is more convenient, so I would like fingerprint authentication to be revived for next year's iPhone.
iPhone 11 Pro can barely be held with one hand
The iPhone 8 is 4.7 inches, and the iPhone 11 Pro is 5.8 inches, which is large enough to be operated with one hand.
In more detailed figures, the width of the iPhone 8 is 67.3 mm, and the width of the iPhone 11 Pro is 71.4 mm and 4.1 mm.
This 4.1mm difference is large, and the iPhone 11 Pro is barely large enough to be operated with one hand.
When operating the upper part, my fingers can't reach the upper part smoothly like the iPhone 8, so I give up and operate with both hands.
The iPhone 11 Pro has a large width, so the keyboard is set to one-handed mode with an app called Simeji.
The iPhone 11 had the same functions as the iPhone 11 Pro, and it was attractive that it was cheap, but the iPhone 11 was quite large at 6.1 inches, so the iPhone 11 Pro was the only size choice.
My life hasn't changed with the iPhone 11 Pro, but taking pictures has become fun.
In all honesty, switching to the iPhone 11 Pro doesn't change your life. Perhaps those who change from iPhone 6s or later will be able to use Apple Pay, so their lives may change in terms of cash. However, the camera's functionality has improved dramatically, so it has become fun to take pictures.
No SLR or mirrorless camera is needed! I can't say enough, but the iPhone 11 Pro's camera is satisfying for my daily life.
Ah, this scenery is beautiful! It's nice to be able to quickly take it out of your pocket and take a picture easily the moment you think of it. It is a level that even those who shoot movies can be satisfied with because you can shoot videos beautifully without a camera shake.
I no longer cared about the camera, so I returned to the iPhone 8.
Disappointing points of the iPhone 11 Pro
- Price is high
- Larger than iPhone 8
- Not compatible with USB Type-C
As a way to buy cheaply, if you trade in the iPhone 8, you can buy it cheaply, but I'm sad to say goodbye, so I decided to buy it without a trade-in.
The second disappointing point is that the display has grown to 5.8 inches, making it difficult to operate with one hand.
However, now that I've grown up, I can enjoy photos and videos on the beautiful large screen of the organic EL display, so I think it's a trade-off.
The third disappointment was that it didn't support USB Type-C. Many gadgets around us use USB Type-C, so it's great to be able to unify cables.
Next year's iPhone seems to support USB Type-C, so I'd like to expect it.
Conclusion: After all, the iPhone is really good
I'm not an Apple believer, but I've also used an Android device (Pixel 3a), and I feel that it's very easy to use, including the ease of use of iPhone devices and the completeness of iOS. (Though I'm used to it)
In addition, the iPhone 11 Pro is one of the reasons I use it because it works well with the iMac, MacBook Pro 13-inch, and iPad.
The iPhone 11 Pro is categorized as a high-end smartphone and expensive, but it is a terminal that I recommend to those who want to enjoy their photo life more.
