    Not very tech literate - is the IPhone 11 worth getting given it doesn’t have 5G?

    • Could Be Better on 18/02/2021 - 10:33
      +22

      IMO 5g is still very much in its infancy - limited coverage, no mmWave in Australia yet (the fastest 5g standard currently, I don't think any phones sold here even have that capability) and battery draining. Better to use 4g for the next couple of years and wait for faster and more efficient 5g network and modems.

        This is the reason In chose the 11 over the 12. Paying for tech that is not needed quite yet

      • alx88 on 18/02/2021 - 11:03

        Yes $1500 for a superseded tech, 4G, is deal-breaker. 5G coverage is expanding quickly. No battery life issue when the modem is integrated. Also, phone performance in terms of loading apps depends a lot on connectivity speed.

      • Fancydancer on 18/02/2021 - 12:14

        Definitely can’t agree, very surprised by the speed and low latency I get on 5g, blindingly fast and no issues with battery

      • Pornboy69er on 18/02/2021 - 12:48

        I know its very hard to predict, but how long do you reckon before 5G becomes the standard? I was going to update my phone in either late 2023 or early 2024 when I'm finally done with phones and was just gonna splurge out and get the best phone there is. Wonder if 5G would have improved by then in Oz, particularly rural where I am

            • itsme56 on 18/02/2021 - 15:27

              @Pornboy69er: IMO mmWave will not take off, it’s gimmicky, needs line of sight. Standard 5G will just end up being as prominent as 4G in 3 years. (everywhere you get 4G, you’ll get “5G”).

    • ChadHominem on 18/02/2021 - 10:35

      Depend on how you use your phone. If you are keen on using 5g and doesn't plan on buying new phones for a few years, yeah you should probably get the newer ones with 5g. But if you don't really care much about 5g and other tech stuff and you have money laying around go for it.

    • yummycoot on 18/02/2021 - 10:35

      even if you get a 5G phone, you will need to make sure 5G covers your area of travel and your phone plan supports it.

      • Fancydancer on 18/02/2021 - 12:15

        What, because you can’t drop back to 4g??

        • yummycoot on 18/02/2021 - 13:46

          no, its not that but if you are spending extra for 4G, its best to be aware of the conditions.

          • Fancydancer on 18/02/2021 - 14:38

            @yummycoot: I've been impressed by the amount of 5g already rolled out - Telstra. I commute an hour from my home to a major city and have 5g at work and home. Heading up the coast there were plenty of times kids would say, hey Dad look more 5g. It was not uncommon at all.

    • congo on 18/02/2021 - 11:53

      You will also need a 5G plan like ones from Telstra.
      Boost and Catch (which often goes on sale) doesn’t have 5G.

    • Godlike on 18/02/2021 - 14:39

      I’d definitely go with a 5G phone if you live within 20km of a cbd. The difference between 4g and 5G, to me, feels like the difference between ADSL and dial up. My 5G is often faster than my NBN FTTC (100mbps+). Depends on what you use your phone for and where you live I guess. It’s great having anything instantly load. I have a 12 pro max and my battery lasts fine. Eg 2 days and nights normal use without charge before dying. Definitely check the cell tower maps for the major carriers though. I live within 2kms of melbourne cbd but I’m in an Optus black out spot (literally just me and the neighbour) so I’m with Telstra.

      Apple stopped selling new iPhone 11 Pro Max for a while now. Therefore, these are old stock so they did not get the "better for environment" treatment.
      The included 18W USB-C charger is much better than the 5W one.

      IMO Google are far less ethical than Apple these days. You can also avoid both and install LineageOS, which is Android de-Googlified.

      The issue is still that many of the Android phone manufacturers Will try to "extract as much money out of your pocket as possible" in what I feel is a much less ethical way than Apple (and I've been on Android/LineageOS since Windows phones were killed off).

      I keep being seriously tempted to move to iPhone, though no Myki mobile is a deal breaker for me.

        I don't think anyone can take you seriously with this comment..

        • tolchok on 06/03/2021 - 11:04

          If you read my comment properly, you would see that I use Android hardware (though with LineageOS as the operating system) and have no plans to change to an iPhone unless/until I can use it as a Myki (Vic Public Transport card). The last iPhone I had was over a decade ago. I also use Android (WearOS on a Fossil). I've also run Android for a number of years on my phones prior to discovering LineageOS. I also used Macs and PCs. I've previously used Tizen (Samsung Galaxy Wear) as well.

          I'm fairly unbiased in my opinions and am not a fanboi/fangirl of any current OS or manufacturer and have found some Android manufacturers less ethical than Apple (Samsung in particular from 4 devices owned, Motorola to a lesser extent due to selling a device and indicating it would get OS upgrades until at least Android 9, then reneging on that).

          As such, yes I think people can take me seriously over someone who clearly has a grudge against Apple.

          Now, do you also use the iPhone in the deal? If not I refer you back to your previous comments on another thread "Makes me laugh when people who don't own the device pass comment from what they read. […] Most people repeat what they hear and use excessive language."

            @smartazz104: Well, it is kinda a sneaky move from JB. Apple stops selling this when iPhone 12 is out so its RRP remained the same (as when it was still the flagship).

            I did have to google a little bit to realise the reason the RRP is still crazy high for this is because Apple stopped selling it when 12 is out.

                  I don't think it matters what we use, a new phone feels fast, one screwed around with for a while, not so much. I run some tests on two Galaxy S6, an old one of mine, and factory rest the old Mrs unit. Night and day performance, and the factory rest unit even runs cooler!

                    @mostlygordon: The real test is load websites. I’m a web dev and we test load times on various devices regularly. An iPhone 8 loads websites faster by a factor of about 4 compared to an s20 and pixel 5. Even just loading the Amazon site. Is crazy man. Chrome and android is just so inefficient. Like I said, my tester xs is so much smoother and faster with web loads times and app memory recovery. I’ll hang out for the iPhone 13.

                    Your pixel 3 will only get updates until November this year btw.

In any case, I use Feedly, Audible, Pocket Casts, Mail, Web, I don't notice any difference between the iPhone XS and the Pixels. I will get the battery changed in the XS when I go back to the office, but I will probably keep using the Pixel 4 XL for my daily driver, 90Hz display is sweet:)

                        @mostlygordon: Yea most of those apps don’t require much cpu. Only browser. Yea the video didn’t open complex sites, so was a bit of a waste. Simply sites load very fast, about 1 second on the iPhone 8 and about 1.5 on the pixel 5.

                        Let me know how many seconds you’re p4 takes. Start timing from the second you tap the link.

                        That video shows how terrible pixel 4 is at ram management

                          @onlinepred: Link seemed to be a little under 4 seconds. Anyway, the vid I sent is pretty much how I use a phone, so pretty relevant for me, i.e. I'm not missing the iPhone especially given the P4s smooth scrolling.

                            @mostlygordon: Yea crazy it’s 2.5 seconds on my xs haha. Just insane the optimisation. Pixel 5 is 15 seconds. I switch tabs and apps constantly so pixels don’t suit at all.

    Just so you know guys, iPhone 11 utilize Intel as their modem chip. The new iPhone 12 uses Qualcomm modem chip. In my personal experience, I reckoned the Qualcomm chip perform superior than Intel, if speeds matter.

      You may be right about that, but I have a 12 Pro Max and the modem is significantly worse than the one in the Snapdragon 845 that's in my old Oneplus 6. I get semi regular data dropouts in places the Oneplus was fine, and the call quality is pretty bad as well. Returned for a new one but it performs the same. I'm fairly disappointed to be honest, it's my first iPhone ever after 11 years of Android and to pay so much money for a product that has such a serious functionality shortcoming is not what I expected, especially after years of owning iPad's that have performed flawlessly.

    The pro max 256gb is $300 cheaper.

      That’s is “good” condition which is below “demo”.
