Hi,

my company provides me my cellphone. I currently have an iPhone 7.

They offer me two choices : get an iPhone XS right now or wait this fall/winter (we don’t know exactly when head office will make them available) for an iPhone 11 (NOT pro).

Is there enough differences to justify waiting 2 to 6 months for an iPhone 11 (not the pro again, basic model) ?

I would wait for an 11 Pro but since it's the base model...I'm not sure.

thanks

I have a personal Xs and a work 11. I find the 11 a bit too large and while its not a big difference the OLED on the XS just looks better to me. The 11 takes some fantastic photos and def has better low lighting than the XS. The 11 also seems faster to load most apps than the XS. If I had to choose between them I would pick the XS.

The ultra-wide angle camera on the iPhone 11 is worth waiting for. The front camera is also a significant improvement.

Personally I will go for iphone 11. The battery is better and with that unique camera arrangement in a square box, u be folding yourself u aren’t using a old design. (Up down camera setup)

Gosh I would say 11. Battery life and camera are my main concern which the 11 win over the xs.

I have xs max and 11. if camera is important to you get the xs. if battery is more important get 11.

Did you want to say if telephoto is important to you ? Because besides that is 11 better in all camera specifications

I prefer to get the XS now, the oled screen is much nicer to look at, it’s practically the thing you see everyday when you use the phone, so screen quality is very important. Second is the XS size is much more manageable to use.
