DxOMark Reviews iPhone 11 Pro Max Selfie Camera, Ranks It 10th

Posted January 28, 2020 at 7:23pm by iClarified · 8132 views
DxOMark has released its review of the selfie camera on the iPhone 11 Pro Max, giving it a score of 91.

The front-facing camera benefits from a hardware upgrade over previous models, with a higher-resolution 12MP sensor for sharper shots and wider-angle 23mm-equivalent lens. The lens is still fixed-focus, with the same f/2.2 aperture, as the lens on the XS Max, but the wider field of view will certainly help fit more into the frame. Other features include smart HDR, and bokeh shots with Apple’s SL (Structured Light) 3D camera doing the depth sensing.



Overall the site found the iPhone 11 Pro Max selfie camera to be a solid performer, capable of excellent results for both stills and video with nice exposures, wide dynamic range, and generally pleasant color rendering.
