Wrong About iPhone 12 — 5G, 120Hz, No Charger!

There are iPhone 12 leaks and rumors and then there are iPhone 12 leaks and rumors. You know what I’m talking about — not the fun ones that get everyone talking but the controversial ones that get everyone hot taking.

And with so many, so hot takes being hot-taken right now, especially on 5G, 120Hz refresh rates, and whether or not there will be EarPods and chargers in the box, I figured it was worth diving into them to find out what’s real, what’s sensational, and what’s… kinda both.

Thanks for watching, see you next video!

I like these “unscripted” videos. Your delivery is much more natural and less list-y.

[muntahaa]

I absolutely love your unscripted videos. It’s so natural, shows just how knowledgeable you are, well done!

[abubakrakram]

Ah, so that’s the difference: these videos aren’t scripted. Thank you comment section, for letting me know, and good move Rene! I like it.

[keco]

For cellular, all I care about is the coverage provided at 20mbps. Anything more than that is cool and all but I really don’t need it or care about it.

[brilliantthings]

Yes! I was a bit worried for the first ten seconds but this is the new, unscripted format. Sooo much better.

[TheM]

Rene, have you got a different format to your videos? It seems way more casual like you’re having a chat as opposed to presenting before?

[homeboundtravel]

wow, i love this new format, especially that it's unscripted. just easier to follow. i think nowadays a lot of people enjoy listening to tech videos rather than watch, especially if its not a review. so it being casual is easier to follow while working, browsing other websites, or going for a walk

I just want a powerful small phone, that's the only reason I'm switching to apple. This boyo getting the hand sized 5.4 iphone 12

[TrollGamerStudios]

I hope apple will still offer a free charger but you have to ask for it. Still saves Apple money and ensures that those will actually be used.

9:30 such a smooth transition to an ad

[OldMateJohn]

I know a guy that pays extra for 5G. Every now and then he receives a notification that he’s in a 5G signal area. He’ll get excited, open his speed test app, be impressed by the faster speeds and then put his phone back in his pocket

[minseg]

No mater what Apple does with the new iPhones, two things won't change: (1) They'll get dumped on; (2) They will be major comercial successes.

Jon prosser: sep 7 and oct 12

Apple: u r wrong bro🤣🤣🤣🤣

[dvkerns]

Agree strongly with other comments along the lines of “you found your format”. This low key conversational mode feels natural, and lets your editing shine and high quality b roll shine. This is great, Rene.

[zuhairreza]

Hey, Rene, would you say going for the iPhone 11 Pro Max is still worth it now? Would it last the next few years?

[lanceruis]

Been watching for a long time, and I have to add my voice to others: Excellent unscripted content. I actually prefer it.

[nigelbassett]

What frame rate do you shoot at? It looks really good

[iMaajid]

Hey Rene, good job on the less stressful tone. I frequently decided not to click on your videos - even though I'm a huge admirer - that they were too highly strung. So this is a refreshing change. The videos are now a much easier watch.

[JK-ugrm]

After the release, I'd like to request a retrospective of what we rationally expected but didn't get, what was missed that we can hope for the next generation, and where Apple stands with competitive alternatives.

Got a dating app advertisement right before this video started. And had my phone on full blast in front of my gf 😒
