TheiPhone 11 is asmartphone that was developed and marketed byApple. It is the thirteenth generation ofiPhone, succeeding theiPhone XR, and was unveiled on September 10, 2019, alongside the higher-endiPhone 11 Pro at theSteve Jobs Theater inApple Park, Cupertino, by Apple CEOTim Cook. Preorders began on September 13, 2019, and the phone was officially released on September 20, 2019, one day after the official public release ofiOS 13.
Despite minimal exterior changes from the precedingiPhone XR, substantial design changes within the phone took place, including the addition of the more powerfulApple A13 Bionic chip as well as an ultra-wide dual-camera system.[9] In October 2020, Apple halted the inclusion of both Apple EarPods and the wall adapter, citing environmental goals.[10][11]
As of March 2022, the iPhone 11 had sold approximately 159.2 million units worldwide, making it the tenth best-selling smartphone of all time.[12] WhileApple Inc. has not released model-specific sales figures for the iPhone 11 after this date, the company announced in July 2025 that total iPhone sales have surpassed 3 billion units globally.[13]
The iPhone 11 as well as theiPhone 12 mini andiPhone 13 Pro with its Max variant were discontinued and removed from Apple's website after the announcement of theiPhone 14 andiPhone 14 Pro on September 7, 2022.
Details regarding the smartphone were widely leaked before the official release; complete specifications and renderings of the phone were widely publicized. Among the most significant changes were improvements in the cameras and the continuation of the 'notch' design around the frontal camera which dipped down into the screen, a feature started by theiPhone X.[14][15][16] The official event invite which was sent out to developers contained a graphic featuring an Apple logo made of layered colored glass, implied to be the new colors for the phone. A patent filed by Apple earlier in the year also hinted at a new camera design.[17][18]

The iPhone 11 was available in six colors: Purple, Yellow, Green, Black, White andProduct (Red). The top of the screen retains the 'notch' design, wherein the TrueDepth camera system and phone speaker are encapsulated in a black, rounded-out rectangle that dips into the screen, similar to its predecessor, theiPhone XR. An elevated area in the top corner on the back of the iPhone acts as a camera housing, containing the microphone, the flashlight, and both of the rear-facing digital cameras.[11][19] The Apple logo on the back of the phone is centered to be equidistant to all edges and is made of a reflective material.

The iPhone 11, along with the iPhone 11 Pro, uses Apple'sA13 Bionic processor, which contains a third-generation neural engine. It has three internal storage options: 64GB, 128 GB, and 256 GB. It also has 4GB of RAM.[20] The iPhone 11 has anIP68 water- and dust-resistant rating along with dirt and grime, and is water-resistant up to 2 m (6.6 ft) for 30 minutes. However, the manufacturer's warranty does not cover liquid damage to the phone. Also, like previous iPhones, both phones do not have a headphone jack, and initially came with wired EarPods with a Lightning connector, although Apple no longer includes these with any device.[11][20] The iPhone 11 is the first smartphone with built-in ultra wideband hardware, via its Apple U1 chip.[21][22][23]
The iPhone 11 has a 6.1-inch (15 cm)IPSLCD with a resolution of 1792 × 828 pixels (1.4 megapixels) at a pixel density of 326PPI with a maximum brightness of 625 nits and a 1400:1 contrast ratio and it is equivalent to the iPhone XR. It supportsDolby Vision,HDR10, True-Tone, and a wide color gamut. As with the iPhone 11 Pro, XR, XS, and X, the display has a notch at the top for the TrueDepth camera system and the speaker. The display has an oleophobic coating, making it fingerprint-resistant.[2][20] Apple announced in September 2019 that both the iPhone 11 and iPhone 11 Pro would show a warning notification if a display were replaced with an unauthorized part. Apple stated that problems with the phone could arise if the wrong parts or procedures were used during the repair process.[24]
The iPhone 11 is supplied with a 11.91 Wh (3,110 mAh) battery, a slight increase from the 11.21 Wh (2,942 mAh) found in theiPhone XR. The battery is not user-replaceable.
The iPhone 11 includes a dual-lens 12 MP rear camera array. It has one ƒ/2.4 ultra-wide-angle lens with a 120° field of view and 2× optical zoom out, and one ƒ/1.8 wide-angle lens. The iPhone 11 supports 4K video at up to 60 fps and 1080p slow motion at up to 240 fps.[2] The phone also features an audio zoom feature, which focuses audio on the area on which is being zoomed in, similar to the Pro model.[20] Both of the cameras support video, although only the primary lens hasOIS. It supports portrait mode with six portrait lighting effects, depth control, and an advancedbokeh effect. The phone also has an automatic night mode allowing the camera to take brighter pictures with reduced noise in low-light environments. Also, a redesigned camera app adds new features such as a scroll wheel for choosing between the different lenses and a feature called "QuickTake", which allows the user to long-press the shutter button to take a video. Apple has also announced a new Deep Fusion feature that takes advantage of AI and machine learning for image processing and was released via iOS 13.2 software update on October 29, 2019.[2][20][25]
The iPhone 11 was supplied withiOS 13,[26] which includes Siri, Face ID (through the TrueDepth camera),Apple Pay, andApple Card support. It receivediOS 14 on September 16, 2020,iOS 15 on September 20, 2021,iOS 16 on September 12, 2022,iOS 17 on September 18, 2023.[27] andiOS 18 on September 16, 2024. It is also compatible withiOS 26 in September 2025.[28]
The iPhone 11 drew generally positive reviews after its launch.[26][29] Reviews generally praised the phone's performance, battery life, and cameras, while criticizing the display as passable, but aging quickly. Reviewers also criticized the notch as being far too large for 2019. According to Counterpoint Research's Market Pulse, it was the second best-selling and the most popular model globally for 2019, in less than four months of launch.[30]
Apple, through an environmental initiative, has removed theEarPods and power adapter from new iPhone boxes starting October 2020, including the iPhone 11. Removing these items is claimed to reduce e-waste and permit a smaller iPhone box, allowing more devices to be transported simultaneously to decreasecarbon footprint. However, Apple now includes a USB-C to Lightning cable, incompatible with the existing USB-A power adapters that Apple previously supplied with their devices. Upgraders can still use their existing iPhone power adapters and cables, but users wanting fast charging capabilities will have to purchase a USB-C power adapter separately.[32]
