The iPhone 11:
The newest phone in the Apple family will be the iPhone 11. This phone will have three rear cameras, and a A13 bionic chip, which will make it faster. It will also have a camera night mode, 4k videos for both cameras, better battery life, and faster Face ID locking (even though the face of the phone will not change).
This phone will also come in new colors, including red, purple, white, green, and yellow.
The best part of the iPhone 11: It will start at $699, which is significantly lower than the phones before it.
