1. iPhone 11 Pro
The iPhone 11 Pro offers Apple’s best-ever image quality
Pros:

A lovely, supremely bright display
One of the best camera systems on any phone
Includes a quick charger in the box

Cons:

Design hasn’t changed much and the notch remains annoying
64GB is still the base storage option
The iPhone 11 is a better pick for most people

Glitzier, flashier and far more expensive than the  iPhone 11 , the iPhone 11 Pro sits at the top of Apple’s current phone line-up along with its larger iPhone 11 Pro Max sibling. For the extra cash you get a Super Retina XDR display, a triple-camera array on the back and higher-end materials. So is this enough to warrant the now overused Pro tag?
