Apple iPhone 12 review: The best iPhone for most people

 

Apple has four new iPhones, but one draws the most people: The iPhone 12. It offers incredible value and calls into question how many people should buy a Pro.

Excellent camera performance ; Fast and consistent software ; Beautiful and colorful hardware ; Good battery life ; 5G connectivity

Light body feels a bit cheap ; MagSafe offers little right now

Blast Past Fast. It's an apt tagline with Apple skipping the S models and going straight to the iPhone 12 from the already fast iPhone 11. But it's...

Attractive design with exquisite fit and finish

No charger or headphones in the box

Apple iPhone 12 Review

 

The iPhone 12 series brings top-notch design, world-class connectivity, and an improved Night-mode camera to the nation's most popular phone. But with four similar models, which one is best? It's complicated.

Apple iPhone 12 review: raising the bar

 

New screen, new design, new 5G, new MagSafe. That's a lot of new, but is it enough?

Excellent camera ; Elegant design ; Promising MagSafe ecosystem ; Upgraded display

The 5G tax ; Battery is a small regression ; More expensive

Apple has put a lot of new things in the iPhone 12: a new OLED screen, 5G, MagSafe for charging and accessories, and a whole new design. Does all that add up to a must-upgrade? Only if you really need one.

Apple iPhone 12 Review

 

Apple's iPhone 12 is probably the one you should get. Save that $200 and put them towards some cool accessories.

New design is pretty and compact ; OLED screen, finally! ; MagSafe is cool and has potential ; Outstanding performance ; One of the best cameras on a smartphone

No charger, no headphones in the box ; 64 GB of storage is fine, but feels a bit stingy in current ecosystem ; No telephoto lens ; No ultra high refresh rate

Apple iPhone 12 review: 5G, improved reception, and iOS 14 widgets challenge Android phones Review | ZDNet

 

Samsung and OnePlus phones have always excelled at cellular reception, customized widgets, and user customization. With the iPhone 12, Apple now competes in more areas than just a friendly UI for the masses.

Gorgeous flat glass OLED ; Flat matte edges ; Vibrant blue color ; iOS 14 with Android elements ; 5G ; Loud stereo speakers

Volume buttons tough to feel ; Rather expensive

Report: Initial iPhone 12 sales out-performed iPhone 11

 

A new report claims that iPhone 12 installed base increased by 2% in Q1 2021 compared to the iPhone 11 in Q1 2020. The “installed base” is the number of units of a product actually in use, and it's not part of Apple's strategic focus. expand full story
