Performance and iOS 13 โ€“ The fastest small phone around

The iPhone 11 Pro is an absolute performance beast, with the new A13 Bionic chipset helping put it up there with the fastest phones we have reviewed. That should come as no surprise to anyone who is familiar with Appleโ€™s silicone, as it has constantly been ahead of the competition from Qualcomm, Samsung and Huawei.

Paired with the A13 is a completely new U1 chip. This is able to directly communicate with other iPhones packing the U1 to transfer files through AirDrop, without the need for a connection. Thereโ€™s also, according to the Geekbench benchmarking app, 4GB inside. Apple never details its RAM specs and the amount has rarely affected how well an iPhone performs.

Simply claiming the iPhone 11 Pro feels โ€˜fastโ€™ feels like its underplaying this chip. Yes, scrolling around is fast and smooth while apps open instantaneously. You can play all the new games in Appleโ€™s ยฃ4.99 Arcade subscription service without ever so much as a dropped frame or judder. But, then again, thatโ€™s very much the case with iPhones going back a few years. If youโ€™re moving from an iPhone X, an iPhone XS or even an iPhone 8 I doubt youโ€™ll notice an immediate speed difference.

But this chipset isnโ€™t just about pure speed. The A13 Bionic enables a load of the tricks that really set the 11 Pro apart: 4K 60fps video recording from all the cameras, for instance, and the much improved Smart HDR that churns out such exceptional pictures. The A13 accounts for the snappier FaceID sensor that unlocks the phone too, and you can definitely see the phone recognising your face quicker than before.
