![]() Apple touts 4 times better drop protection and drop tests have proven this to be an accurate statement. The screen is covered by a new type of tempered glass - it's branded " Ceramic Shield" and was developed in partnership with Corning, the maker of Gorilla Glass. The system is opened to 3rd party developers and here are some of the best iPhone 12 MagSafe accessories we've managed to find. So, the "Safe" in MagSafe still has a bit of meaning. Secondly, it opens the gate for mounts and stands with MagSafe, making it quicker and easier to place and remove your iPhone. For one, it makes sure that you have the phone's coils perfectly aligned with the charger coils - this ensures optimum charging time and reduces energy wasted. So, while it's technically not the same concept as the good old MagSafe, the new system in the iPhone 12 is pretty good for wireless chargers. Even better - MagSafe accessories can have a chip in them, which communicates with the iPhone and lets it know exactly what type of accessory is on it. This includes a wireless charger puck, which sticks really tight on there, as well as a wallet or even the new cases. For the first time ever, I feel like iOS has a bit of an Android flair to how it looks.īasically, MagSafe on the iPhone 12 is an array of magnets on the back, which allows you to stick different accessories to the phone. There are also some small aesthetic changes, some interface elements are bolder, more accented, some small, very subtle animations here and there. Another small victory for the ordinary man! You no longer need to tuck the apps you want in a folder and hide it somewhere - you can literally delete them from the homescreen and look for them in the “Apps Gallery” (the iOS version of an app drawer). The second big feature is that iOS has a sort of an app drawer now. So, it’s still a bit of a drag to try and arrange your homescreen to make any kind of sense. Apple sure took its time with that one, we might even be at the point when widgets are no longer cool.īut before you start dreaming about arranging your widgets and icons in cool and handy shapes, let me be the bearer of bad news and tell you that iOS still doesn’t allow for empty spaces between icons. ![]() One is the support for widgets - anywhere on the homescreen. With the release of the iPhone 12, Apple also launched iOS 14, which brought about a bunch of new features and quality-of-life improvements to the ecosystem. Also, the 12 Pro Max has a slightly bigger sensor on its main camera, which helps for better Night Mode shots, and employs a new "sensor shift" stabilization method, where the sensor moves to compensate for hand-shake motions (while all other iPhone 12 models have a moving lens). And there's a bit of a difference to be observed here, too - the iPhone 12 Pro has a 2x magnification lens, whereas the iPhone 12 Pro Max has a 2.5x zoom. Of course, the iPhone 12 Pro Max also has that gargantuan 6.7-inch screen, so if screen real estate is what you are really after, this model should be your top pick.īoth iPhone 12 Pro models add yet another 12 MP camera on the back - the telephoto camera. Its frame is stainless steel, as opposed to aluminum, and the iPhone 12 Pro and 12 Pro Max colors are more "muted" and "serious" (aside from the gold version, which just screams "Bling!"). ![]() As a result, I get to continue using this ‘jaundiced’ phone until the stock replenishment at the Apple store where I can just head in to replace this current 12pro.What are you missing out if you get the iPhone 12 vs the iPhone 12 Pro? The 12 Pro comes with a matte finish on the back glass, which feels quite nice, but is more slippery. The returns ppl gave me the option of replacement by pushing my order into the next available shipment. ![]() everything was super chill and easy - it was probably the easiest customer service call in my life (makes me wonder if apple is actually already aware of this problem). Asked the Apple staff about it and he concurs with my observation, so he advised me to give the returns/replacement people a call as it’ll be the best course of action since they don’t have 12pro in stock in most Apple store to replace immediately at once. So I headed down to the apple store physically to compare my 12pro with their display models and although the displays were also “warmer”, the one I possessed was definitely “jaundiced”. I did something similar to what Yolande mentioned ^.īeen feeling like my 12pro display isn’t as bright/vibrant compared to my iPhone X but can’t quite pinpoint the problem until I first heard about the yellow tint from everythingapplepro’s YouTube review.
