"You get all of that in this tiny tiny package" Story of my life right there

[fightnight]

It's not $200 dollar difference because the regular iPhone 12 starts at $829 for unlocked model and if you compare it to the 12 Pro then you go up for 128GB so that version is $879. It ends up a $120 difference which I think the 12 Pro is the better buy for future proofing. 64GB is not sufficient these days especially if you plan to keep it for more than 2 years. Also, the 12 Pro is for people who wanted the best phone in a small footprint, I know it's niche but they exist. Just my insight

If u want your apps to stay exactly where you left, get the pro. Believe me, that extra ram does make a difference.

The reason why I‘m going with the Pro is the telephoto lens. 52mm focal length, it will create the most realistic portraits possible. I hate the iPhone’s wide lens it‘s so horrible and unnatural for me, it makes me look so weird and narrow. In addition to that there‘ll be the ProRaw mode which will produce even better true to life photos. The iPhone 12 is great and all but you have to buy the 128gb version one way or another and then the price difference doesn‘t seem that big considering the premium and prestige body, camera and more ram of the 12 Pro.

My wallet is getting angry. I should probably stop watching iPhone 12 videos. Lmao

Small correction Patrick - the 1200 nits only applies to both phones whilst displaying HDR content. During normal day to day use anywhere else, the 12 goes up to 625 nits and the 12 Pro up to 800 nits.

[bradmoran]

All of the real reviews from people who've actually used the products say 1) You DO notice the extra RAM and 2) the Telephoto is highly useful. As for the max, it's just too big; you can't just buy an unmanageable phone because it has a better camera.

This review made me feel better about purchasing 128gb black iPhone 12. So many people are advising to buy the pro, but I feel like it’s more an aesthetic thing. The pro has the sexy midnight green colour and the flashy three camera thing, that celebs and influencers crave so they look ‘cool.’ I’ll have my black iPhone 12 for years to come and I ain’t mad about it!

I upgraded to a 12 pro from an iPhone 11. I use the car magnetic mount on the vent as well. My iPhone 11 was able to stick on because there was magnets even on that phone. One tap and it would come off. I assumed the 12 pro would have a stronger hold, but it felt exactly the same. One tap and it can be easily pushed off.

Your reviews are human, straight forward and honest. I also like how you put it in short about which model will be a better buy without really beating around the bush. Short and simple. Other channels seems robotic.

I'm only a little bit worried about the ram situation. 4 vs 6gb makes a difference, don't you think?

Finally I bought Black 128gb iPhone 12, thanks for the advice :-)

[BanasauR]

I'm SO interested in the mini. I think it might be time for me to go back to iphone

[quimboy]

I went with 12pro instead due to better camera, more ram, look and feel more premium on hand. Getting the normal 12 is not a wise choice in my opinion, because the price margin between 12pro and 12 is small, so might as well go for the flagship.

[Beatriz-bkim]

I know you get ons of these, but I am upgrading my 6s this year and I'm having a hard time choosing between the 12 and the 12 pro. What would you recommend for someone who wants to keep their phone for at least 4 years? I am aware that the pro has 2 extra gb of ram, but I am not sure how important that is. Honestly my 6s is doing pretty well apart from the battery life. Thanks!!!

[riddlemechris]

I went from a space gray Xs Max to the blue 12. The Max was was too big and heavy for comfortable one handed use, and I always regretted how much I spent on it. I found I never used more than half the storage.

[samirmoghe]

I still use and like the iphone 6s plus inspite of the upgrades coming all these years. It has a sleek thin design and has a button at the bottom, to get the feel. It has large screen, the camera is good, has long life battery. I do like the iphone12 pro max, due to similar large screen size, the new pacific blue color and the 5G network, but you need to ask yourself a question, DO YOU REALLY NEED THE UPGRADE against your previous upgrade by spending 1000$ if the previous one is pretty good enough ? Upgrades always come in future years be it a smartphone, TV or a car. If you really need the upgrade then ONLY one should consider buying it. I am surprised the iphone 12 or iphone 12 pro does not come with ear pods or a charger. But nevertheless if one really needs an upgrade then should go for it, otherwise previous upgrades are also quite good.

[gomatheeshwarm]

I'm planning on getting the 12 but I'm unsure if I'll be able to use it with one hand. Can you use the 12 with one hand or is it a struggle? Oh and one more thing, does the black aluminum rails of the iPhone 12 make the bezels seem larger since the rails merge with the bezels?

[MartinRosol]

Thanks for this, Patrick. I’m still using an iPhone 6s and have been too stubborn to upgrade, preferring instead to invest in the recent iPad Pros. Now that it is already June, I think I’ll hold out longer and wait until the fall to see what the new models have to offer. But the 12 is completely adequate since up to now the 6s has given me pretty much what I need in a phone.

[richiezombie]

I had upgraded 2 phones. My main one I got the gold max. And I wanted my second phone to be gold too but couldn't justify the 200 dollar price hike just for the color. Ended up getting the normal 12 in mint green. I like both of them.
