I've had my 12 pro for a few days now, and boi do I not regret getting it. I upgraded from a 7 plus so it was quite an upgrade. Wireless charging is great, I hate cables, magsafe made it even better. And I'm so impressed with the battery life, compared to what my 7 plus was like at the end. I could barely get through the day, now I can get through two days no problem with regular use. I love the new design, I like how it feels when I hold it and it looks amazing. The camera is great, tested it outside in the dark and I'm SO impressed. I like the size, I didn't want anything bigger than my 7 plus so the pro max was out of the question for me. It was time for me to upgrade and I think I made the right choice.

Just upgraded from the regular iPhone 11 to the 12 pro on Saturday so I’ve had a few days to mess with it. Didn’t need to upgrade necessarily, but I wanted the OLED screen and the extra camera so went with the pro model. 6.7 inches on the Max is just way too big and 6.1 inches isn’t by any means small. That’s one of the reasons I loved the 11 last year was because the 6.1 inch screen seemed just the perfect size. This thing is smooth and so crazy fast, and it feels amazing in the hand. I actually like the flat edges feel over the rounded edges. No complaints at all so far. Let my wife have the Pacific Blue and I went with the Graphite as our Verizon store only had one of each left and I’m partial to the grey and black colors, anyways.

Great Vid Brian. Your review videos help sort out the live from the jive. Part of the appeal for an iPhone is that it has a fair number of update cycles, but one or more could be used on waiting for 5G before that feature can be fully utilized. Not sure what to make of that. No power adapter is a drag. Apple wants to help the environment and save on packaging by forcing those of us who don't have a USB-C to spend more money on... more packaging.

I have a XS Max and I’m definitely upgrading. I’m leaning towards the 12 Pro because I need a smaller and more portable phone now. The Max phones are just getting too big, bulky, and heavy.
@CinderFall964 жыл бұрын
@@Fullblown671 the most compelling reason to get the iPhone 12 pro was really the x55 modem, 6gb of ram, and a14 bionic chip. I’m someone that really loves fast phones (no brainer right?) and although the note 20 ultra’s SG 865+ chip was compelling just a little bit, the benchmarks fully converted me from android to iPhone this time around.

You're doing a good job on these reviews. I agree completely that there's little reason to upgrade from one year to the next, but I have a much older iPhone so this year's model will be a great upgrade for me. Although I still haven't decided *which* of these iPhones to get!

@@briantong You're wrong. The rounded edges on the 11's are way more slippery and more likely to get dropped. The boxy edges on the 12's enable a more solid grip which is more useful. My take is more valid than yours and is not at all subjective. :P

Brian you keep saying that the phone is too big, but you forget the 11 Pro is actually smaller than the XR and 11. I found that the 11 pro screen was too small, the 6.1 inch screen is the sweet spot for screen size and I’m glad Apple could make it a bit smaller than the XR and 11.

Thanks BT for another excellent video....I’m getting the 12pro in blue. Went and checked it out at the store near me and the square form factor was actually more comfortable to me because the edges made it feel more secure in my hand. My 6s and my X always felt like it was going to fall out unless i had a cover on them because of the smooth rounded edges...looking forward to getting the 12pro in a week or so....peace ✌🏼
