iPhone 12 | 12 Pro Real machine video + photo review The first 5G compatible feeling that every day will completely change



[ad_1]

Both models have a robust body

Nanoceramic crystal is incorporated into the glass to improve strength.

It is said to be four times harder to break than the conventional model and is more resistant to scratches on the surface, thanks to structural ingenuity like matching the height to the side.

Both are equipped with a 6.1-inch organic EL display

They both have the same resolution of 2532 x 1170 dots, but the standard brightness is 625 nits for the iPhone 12 and 800 nits for the Pro, which is higher for the latter. The maximum brightness when displaying HDR is 1200 nits for both models, so you can enjoy beautiful image quality comparable to any of the photos and videos you’ve taken.

A state where every shine is maximized under the scorching sun The pro on the right is a little brighter

Transformed into an accessory with MagSafe

The iPhone 12 series is MagSafe compatible. It has a built-in coil consisting of a high-sensitivity magnetic sensor and NFC on the back, and you can fix the charger and other accessories in place and call the function that suits each one.

When you scan the back of the main unit with a secret sheet that can see the magnetic field …

I feel the presence of Mag. However, it doesn’t stick even if you zoom in on the clips etc. It is designed so that only compatible devices can be connected.

This is the genuine Apple MagSafe charger
If you bring it closer to the back of the iPhone 12 series, it will stick together (if you can’t see it move, switch to the standard browser)

Qi can charge up to 7.5W, but MagSafe can charge up to 15W, which is twice as fast as the theoretical value. Some Android devices support high-speed wireless charging of 10W or more even with Qi, but Apple seems to have made such specifications in consideration of security.

By the way, it also supports Qi charging, so you can also charge Qi for iPhone 8 or later models, AirPods and Android devices (up to 7.5W and does not stick)

The original Apple case is also MagSafe compatible. When placed in the box, MagSafe compatible products can be placed from above.

Silicone case (Cyprus green) and transparent case
Inside
There is an elaborate effect that the circle that matches the color of the attached shell is displayed by the NFC discrimination function (if you can’t see it move, switch to the standard browser and see)
I feel like the feel of the silicone case is less sticky than before.

This time, the leather case was not announced at the time of the main body launch, but I thought the luxury of other cases was increasing.

A clear case that uses MagSafe contacts as is in design I feel it is harder to get finger oil than conventional
Also, Apple sells a leather wallet, and you can put it directly on the main body or from the top of the original case and put a card, etc.
MagSafe has an MFi certification program and more compatible third-party products are expected in the future (Belkin MagSafe 3-in-1 Wireless Charger shown).

Cases released by third parties prior to the iPhone 12 launch are not MagSafe compatible, but slim ones may react. Of course, since it’s out of warranty, MagSafe might come off or fast-charge won’t take place, so be careful. Even if it supports Qi, it is not necessarily MagSafe, so if you want to store it in a case, buy an original Apple case or a case with the MFi certification logo.

Even if the case doesn’t have a built-in driver, the main body’s magnetic force can get through, but since it’s not guaranteed, it’ll be up to 7.5W for those not described as MagSafe-compatible, but it seems better to carry Qi.

The iPhone experience changes completely

All iPhone 12 series models are equipped with A14 Bionic.

Geekbench 5 score BTW, the iPhone 11 series score is 6000 units.

Every experience through the iPhone drives this A14 Bionic to its core.

Standing 5G antenna stood up!

The first iPhone “compatible with 5G”
Efficient switching between 4G and 5G in smart data mode

By setting it to automatic (the default), you can switch to 4G when not needed to reduce battery consumption.

You can improve video quality like FaceTime by changing the data mode settings.
FaceTime calls over 5G lines with the help of writers who have already tested the iPhone 12. The image quality was clearly different from the 4G connection and there was no audio lag.

At the moment, the 5G area is still only a point development, and we also had to search for radio waves to experience FaceTime in HD (by the way, in the case of the iPhone 12, we later learned that even Wi-Fi would be an HD call. It is true that the 5G area will expand at a rapid rate in the future. I do not think it will be necessary to force a switch to a 5G contract by the end of the year, but there is no doubt that the smartphone experience will be enriched with the iPhone 12. and lower versions.

As for the iPhone 12 series, iPhone 12 Pro Max and iPhone 12 mini will be released later on November 13 (pre-orders start from the same month 6). Max, which is equipped with a camera motion sensor and has more advanced shooting functions than the iPhone 12 Pro, mini, which is compact at 5.4 inches but has the same functions as the iPhone 12, and people who have already bought the iPhone 12 are also interested.

From left, iPhone mini (mock), iPhone 12, iPhone 12 Pro, iPhone 12 Pro Max (mock). The screen sizes are 5.4 inches, 6.1 inches, 6.1 inches and 6.7 inches, respectively.
