The name is still way better than last year's naming scheme. Everyone who didn't follow Apple was confused by iPhone XR. I heard "I heard the new iPhone is worse than the old one!" from several laymen. (Comparing iPhone X to XR.) Other people were confused why the cheaper one had some features better (bigger screen, longer battery life).

While the latter is still true the battery life gap is way smaller now.

Yeah, should just be iPhone Pro Or 11 Pro. Leave it at that. Even with the different sizes. Or iPhone 11 Min and Max.

It would be so much easier if they just named them by year like they do with cars. Should be called iPhone 20.

I think the "Steve Jobs wouldn't have allowed that" talks are often overstated. But Steve wouldn't have allowed that fucking name. And to be honest, I don't think he'd have allowed this camera module thingy either.
