Should You Buy iPhone 12 Pro Max in 2023! In this video we discuss just that!

[@maciej5806]

Switched iPhone 12 Pro Max to 14 Pro Max, and it’s not worth it.. better wait for 15 Pro Max or even iPhone 16 Pro Max. I Think 3-4 years to change your iPhone Pro series to new model it’s 2020+ reality. This all new little things they are gonna catch us, are really not important in basic usage. Nowadays models are maybe 10% better then they previous models.

[@xyro77]

I have had the 12 ProMax (256GB) since launch in 2020 and use it every day numerous times a day. This phone is still just as snappy/responsive and the camera is still outstanding in 2023. My only problem was that I have had to replace the battery (to be fair, I am a heavy user) once. You’ll likely not NEED to upgrade until the iPhone 16 or possibly 17.

[@xaelch.official]

I recently got my 12PM by choosing a premium option from refurbished, it works and looks brand new. Almost a month of my usage soon and it still works and performs good. It’s also my first refurbished phone lol, had a great experience overall. Way faster than my old phones 7+ and XR.

[@walterdbrown]

I just got a 6.1” 12 Pro. Unless you’re desperate for the brand new tech, you can’t go wrong with the refurbished or used iPhone market.. anything from the XS Max to 12 Pros is a great catch at the right price.

[@ajejebrazorf9475]

how is the battery life?

[@walterdbrown]

@@ajejebrazorf9475 It does its job. If you have to charge your phone for a bit when you get home from work and take a shower, eat dinner and get ready to chill in bed or watching tv, I think its a good battery cause it at least covered you at work or wherever you were. People are getting so used to not having to charge their phones until the next day, and it has put a bad reputation on phones that need that extra charge before or during sleep.

[@ajejebrazorf9475]

@@walterdbrown yeah thats why im in conflict between the 12 pro or the 13 , i prefer the 12 cause of looks but man the 13's battery lasts a lot

[@walterdbrown]

Just bought a second hand one for $450 256gb. Been wanting to buy the newest one but couldn’t pull the trigger as it is quite an investment (new one here cost equivalent to usd $1,600). Major upgrade from my entry level android phone for sure. And I mean you can really tell it is a premium product when in your hand.

[@CictionalFharachter]

Thank you

[@sanyogjangid2714]

[@steboy09]

Still have my 12 PM pacific blue ❤

[@spirodrossos955]

how many years more for security updates? i just bought this iphone refurbished.

[@drustill]

Definite bias because I am using a 12PM that I purchased as a refurb end of 2022 and it’s definitely worth it. Pacific blue oddly enough is a nicer aesthetic than the new titanium blue on the 15 imo. Performance wise, unless you’re doing very intensive activities on your phone from a filming and media perspective, it’s not an issue. Even then, you likely won’t notice too much of a drop off. And compare the stats to base 14s or even non-pro 15s and you’ll be shocked. Those still running 60FPS, improved battery sure, but again, mine is fine and you can save $1k and still bump up to a 256+. Oh, and if you think you need dynamic island, then kudos to you. I’m fine until they drop a “pro” and give the form factor a shakeup, which usually only happens once a decade or so (see iPhone X). That’s my opinion, to each their own. To add, I worked for a telco for over a decade and had new devices 6-8 months before they were in market for every Android, and even Apple at day of announcement, so needless to say, I’ve lived in the future of devices and now that I still have the perk of not paying a phone bill, I can justify purchasing devices outright and calling it a day (would never sign a contract, but I worked on the inside, so either call me jaded or intelligent, your pick). 🍻

[@a_aronhdtech1328]

Thanks, you just made up my mins with those pix. They are trash. Ill hold off for the 15PM if they come out with TypeC, if not ill save the money and get the 13PM

[@avromd8579]

Good videos, Nick! I have a Samsung S20 FE, and its a great phone, which runs well and will easily last me for another few years. But I am really interested in moving over to iPhone. Right now my carrier runs the 12 Pro Max real cheap over 24 months (vs. buying outright). One reason I want this phone is the larger screen, and extra zoom camera. I think I will enjoy moving to the iPhone and the reasonable cost of the 12 Pro Max is appealing.

[@Ricky_Bobby2314]

I continue to rock my 12 Pro Max and it is still an awesome phone without the newer features that the 13 and 14 has.

[@muhdhaziq3219]

[@emilsecker7881]

Have you had the battery replaced? 100% health is pretty good

[@GamerUnsworn]

Went to the pawn shop in my town they had a 13 that was shattered front and back and would've costed $300-500 to repair the glass. And then they pulled the 12 pro max out, it was $600 ($660) so I paid $200 down to have it put on layaway so I can pay it off this Thursday when I get paid. I owe $466 so I'm really ready for it! I can't wait to see what this phone can do for me

I have an iPhone 12 pro max and the phone is amazing, only 2 things that I don't like about it tho, the battery life isn't good enough for me (I'm a really heavy user) and it doesn't have pro res (120hz) but other than that I love the phone! PS The battery life of the phone seems to get worse quicker after a battery change in my experience. Dropped to 94% health in 6 months right now whereas it was sitting at 99-98% in the first 6 months of using the phone when it came out.

[@SriSri-fo2je]

How is battery life if health is 75 percent?
