Apple announced the new iPhone 12 models on October 13, 2020 in a livestreamed Apple Event keynote. The new HomePod mini was announced along with the iPhone 12, iPhone 12 mini, iPhone 12 Pro, and iPhone 12 Pro Max. There's a lot to cover-from 5G mmWave to the cameras, to the new design, to the new MagSafe charging and accessories (cases, magnetic wallets, car mounts, etc), and a whole lot more! Let's get into it in this iPhone 12 First Look.
Keep posting interesting contents like this!
Visually? Where?
Really like your videos!
yeah the previous leaks of iphone 12 series have 120hz i was shocked to know they were not the case during release
I totally believe they co-developed it with Corning, they got the original Gorilla Glass started, they approached Corning about it with their list of requirements. Then they got a year's exclusivity on GG before everyone else immediately used it. (Though interestingly they hadn't used the Gorilla name in their exclusive year.) So, even if this is just a new version of Gorilla Glass, or the first generation of a new line of glass (Pyrex, after all, already mixed ceramic with glass), I would expect Apple to get a year's exclusivity again this time. And I wouldn't be surprised if Apple did initiate it again, driving the move to a ceramic composite layer. (Or, more likely, Corning already had it in prototype form as with Gorilla, and Apple asked them to push it through faster.)
I don't really care about 120hz displays, I've been trying it out quite a few times on phones and there's definitely a difference. However, it's not nearly as big of a deal as people make it out to be. Of course it's a lovely feature, and it's objectively better. However it's really not a huge selling point for me and I doubt it is for most people. Battery life however is quite a big selling point for me, and hopefully the one of the 12 pro max is good! As I'll be receiving it in about 8 hours if i know my postal service right!
The iPhone 12 Pro is confusing this year. But luckily there are no significant differences between the 12 Pro and 12 Pro Max.
7:05 how exactly whats your original tweet "making fun of"?
5:10 false. EU iPhones dont have milimiter wave variants, thats why we dont have that "antena thing" on the side
nothing but complain zzzzz
I got the 12 pro
The 120hz display seems like it would be cool, but the battery life would probably suffer especially since it has 5g
thanks for pointing out that no one practically needs 5G on the go lol. 5G is just consumerism at its finest.
Still with the notches 🙄
Gonna wait until 12s or 13 pro max comes, i mean im not a photographer and i dont care at all about dolby stuff... when you buy an iphone you know that it will take good photos and thats it, normal people they use most of their pictures for SM which hmmm is visualized on other screens where OH SUPRISE being sincere most of them they do not even suport HDR... Also dont care at all about 5G, or magsafe stuff either, In fact I do care about battery life and the battery on the 12 pro max is smaller than in the 11 pro max, and trust me, it doesnt matter how efficient the new A14 bionic is when you play intense video games... the more ghz the higher the consumption. Also I wanted yes or yes a 120hz display for 1259 euros, which is at the price in which this iPhone will launched aprox here in Spain. Aniway NO coments over the normal iPhone 12 Pro... embarassing at least Well thumbs up as always! and greetings from Barcelona!
I am always amused at how quickly it becomes fashionable and trendy to diss a new technology. Now it's 5G. The same thing with 4G, USB-C, and every other technology I can think of. Do these talking heads not realize that we buy these products for the future, not the past. If I watch a show like this, it's because I'm looking forward to what comes next, not yearning for what I already have.
but did you see the iphone 12 blue that blue is disgusting the pacific is way better
dont take your iphone into a metal shop... you'll have tons of iron filings stuck to your phone
The reason would be courage
Thanks I use 5g
I love the iPhone 12
I feel like the lighting to c cable is apples way of bringing in the change from lighting to usb c across the board ]
So stupid that the 12 has no optical zoom. Something the iPhone X has, way back from 2017.
Duo charger = $149 USD. Calling it now. I’ll be getting a 12 Pro Max, 256GB or 512GB. Not really picky about colour, as long as it’s not the gold one.
IMO Theses are the most beautiful iPhones yet. The squared edges are sooooooo pretty.
Apple: save environment! Also Apple: release magsafe Honestly Apple is greedy AF, and ifan still love it
Hello Quinn, how are Margaret until today?
Hey Snazzy Labs! For the upcoming video, Could you please address the low light photography features with the 12's you're getting? perhaps compare it with the 11's? Thank you!
He did not use a jerryrigeverything quote did he?
Got an 11 Pro last year. Nothing appeals enough from this year’s lineup for me to upgrade. Duh- one year, but some people are trying to convince me it’s a giant upgrade.
7:08 earned a "like."
I like the iPhone 12 mini even though it does not have 120hz, but i more concern abort the battery life 5G eats battery...
Hmmm.... think I’ll be sticking to my 6S for a couple more years......
Apple will save $1.8 billion when they sell 80 million iPhones by end of this year. 😱😱😱
Apple bought dark sky.....
Quinn should do a episode of his podcast flashback about Palm
Great, another iphone... Like we already don´t have enough crap in the world. Hey Apple, want to be environment friendly? How about stop making so many iphones? How about stop making them in milled alluminium (or any other metal) that creates waste in material? But of course, you created this model of constant renewal of models, so seeing that revenue dry would suck, right?
funny how you say ppl will make fun of magsafe on the iphone just to love it later, when in reality thats apple users, it always has been. apple called widgets stupid, wireless charging, stylist pens.
The pros are a huge jump up. For any photographer or videographer the Dolby Vision is insane. The Apple RAW is a game changer too.
The steel is there for all the VIworldrs bending iPhones for views.
The iPhone 12 is the real equivalent to the iPhone 11 with a similar screen size but at a higher price of $800. Pay more for less features; pay the same price for last year’s iPhone with a smaller screen size. -iPhone Mini
iphone 12 pro have 6 GB RAM the normal iphone 12 only 4 GB
actually I would need an AI to decide which iPhone 12 variety I should get. just can't decide!!! mini? pro max?
Always great to watch subscribed now. Love the totally honest reviews fantastic videos
It’s either a pro max or a mini
I’ve purchased a 12 Pro as I’m upgrading from an XR, so even though the camera system is comparable to the 11, it will be a vast improvement for me (and lots of other upgraders). Also, both 12 pro models are speculated to have 6GB of ram, over 4GB in the regular models, so software lockouts could still be down to hardware differences + requirements (classic Apple). I enjoyed the video. Thanks 👍🏻
As an Apple devotee the iPhone 12 is a skip.
Forgot to say if there's a difference between the Ultra-wide on the Pro Max vs the others.
USB A cablese don't fast charge so it wouldn't make sense to give those out and then force people to get a cable and a brick to get fast charging.
Geez, the HomePod mini is fugly.
magsafe in Mac easily interrupted !! Sooo no, no, man! Not easily interrupted. Magsafe is a deal-maker for a MacBook Pro (the old models)
Great review. Next time buy the product before and wear adults size shirt.
Stainless steel is magnetic; aluminum is not. Get ready for tiling your iOS devices in the very near future. Nice for iOS "VIworld studio" and cooler FaceTime experience, among other applications! ;) ;) ;)
Duo charger - does anyone else see this as an Apple iOS "Studio" mount? Potentially this is how we film on our iPhone Max Pros while simultaneously viewing output on our iPads (assuming MagSafe comes to iPad Pros...?) Anybody???
How does sound out of HomePod mini compare to Macbook Pro?
You missed the ram difference between 12 and 12 pro
Actually, I never had a problem with MagSafe (I had several MacBooks from different generations)
What app did you use to make a floor map of your home?
I'm upgrading from an iPhone X to the iPhone 12 Pro Max! The larger display is the biggest thing for me along with 5G capability and the insane new cameras! I know as far as screen size goes I could've upgraded with the Xs Max or the 11 Pro Max but there didn't feel enough of a jump to justify it. As an app developer aswell I feel the the iPhone 12 Pro Max is the device needed to jump to! 😀
Bought a Samsung S20 Plus and loving it. First week owning it so I will see if I still love it a month from now.
To be fair your making fun of the Verizon tie in was... subtle. Corporate social networking managers don’t always know how to do subtle.
With a new generation of iphone there should have been larger storage option for the pro.
Bro calm down apple can make everything sound good
Yea. The powerful magnets don’t look so powerful. The wallet case slides off automatically when you put the phone in your pocket.
All I want is an SE Plus 😔 to tide me over until the iPhone 12 Pro S (which will most likely have the 120hz, improved censor, embedded Touch ID, and hopefully be notch-less).
Mkbhd made a vid about the phone, MagSafe sucks
14:52 is where the title of the video starts. Just an FYI
I am thinking about the iPhone 12 Pro Max, but I am not sure about it yet. Thoughts? In case anyone is wondering, I prefer the larger size.
They should have offered a 1TB and 2TB model. (I record all my video using 4K/60 fps) they should have upgraded the 2TB iCloud plan to Unlimited TB for the same price. Just like (carbonite dot com /backup-software/carbonite-safe) or let users chose their own icloud backup provider and or ftp server (filezilla...)/local nas/server. (change the way iCloud works..) right now if I delete a photo/video from my photos app it will delete in the iCloud backup there is no way around that, except doing a local iTunes backup... which sort of defeats the purpose of iCloud . I want to be able to delete content from my apple devices without it deleting from the cloud. I don't want to use dropbox/google-drive/box they wont automatically backup/restore the notes, contacts, photos/videos web-hiistory and whatsapp that I have.
they just need to stick to making one iphone and thats the iphone pro because making so many line ups makes it wayyyy to confusing also the mag safe is the biggest scam it works also on my iphone 11 as much as it does on the iphone 12
The iPhone 12 is really not much better than the iPhone 11. Change my mind
I'm still rocking my 7+. Its definitely showing its age, but I like to hold onto things till they break.
I don't know about anyone else but I never had a problem with the MacBook MagSafe charger coming loose. I thought it stayed in the charging port pretty sturdy. I'd rather have another MagSafe with the current MacBooks than the USB-C that won't come off if I accidentally trip the charging cable. At least a hybrid USB-C MagSafe would be great.
I still don't get the logic of homepod having zero speaker connection. also the 5G is amazing in this specifically designed chamber to give the most optimal reception, wwhich in no means factors in real world
I don't understand how that tweet was supposed to be a roast at all
RESPECT PALM PREEE!!!!
Echos are half the price with double the features
a lot of small annoying assumptions in the video. Like the software lock for 30fps HDR video cature, it might be because of the RAM ammount
HDR is a big deal tho if you own newer 4k TVs, or monitors or simply view things on future iPhones, iPads
good video overall though
Imma need the 12 pro max. I create short films and music videos+mag photos. I hate traditional cameras and always love using phone cameras. There’s more of a raw DIY feeling to it. So this Dolby vision and new sensor is about to be soooooo great for me
As an Apple fanboy, I am with you on the lack of a 120 Hz display. I don't care about DolbyVision. I just want to take videos of my cat and maybe my VIworld series (whenever I get around to it) and also scroll down Facebook at blazingly-smooth speeds! Also how do you like the Fold Z? I'm now debating getting one (even though I just don't like Samsung).
I will go for the mini. Have the 11 pro max now, nice thing, but too heavy and big. The difference between the pro models and the mini aren’t big enough for me and with the small phone with relative big screen i will be very content. Hopefully they (or another) will make a magsafe batterypack to click on. For me a thicker mini would be fantastic...
Getting iPhone mini 128 gb in white. Upgrading from iPhone SE. Tried iPhone 11 as well for 8 months but the size is not my cup of tea. Going for classy white as the scratches melds with. natural color as oppose to other colors where there is a contrast.
Every time Quinn brought out his Fold, my eyes kept going to the crease down the centre. I just don’t think I could ever bring myself to get a foldable phone for that reason.
You stop noticing it after a day. You really do.
Iphone at 3:55. you welcome
Who wants to bet the iPhone 12 Pro (not the max) is way more profitable for Apple than the Max?
You do realise that the whole world doesn’t consist of just North America right? Most of Australia has had 5G for some time...
hahaha..... Morons........... man that got me like anything
Liked for 7:08
Pretty sure the iPhone 12 Pro models have more RAM (6 vs 4) to support the extra camera features. I don't think its an artificial software lock.
You know that you don't have to use the USB C cable that came with the phone, but USB A cable that came with the USB A charger brick you already have instead right?... Why is everyone acting like apple fooled us cause we all have USB A bricks but they gave us USB C cable, when those USB A bricks usually came with it's own cable as well?...
i not going lie , only reason why i got the iPhone 12 pro is cause of the 5G. now to lo learn it basically useless great .
losing the lightning port on future models is a problem for me. until apple car play is wireless, a lightning port is a requirement. i'm all for change so let's get carplay wireless so we can be port free!
I’ll try to get an iPhone mini. I’ll get a used one maybe.
So I shouldn’t have pre ordered the 12 pro?:( coming from an xs max, I was hoping it’d be a good upgrade :/ oh well
There is 1 glaring issue with removing the lightning port, that is doing a hard wired restore to the iPhone. Rarely, but it does happen, iOS updates corrupt the boot files and require a computer to fix it. Unless they can somehow make USB communicate through magsafe, it is here to stay. Sorry fanboys. I prefer stainless steel, I will be getting the 12 pro max.
In my opinion, Apple is going the wrong direction with the Home Pod. They should be going higher end to compete with Sonos, not down market to compete with Amazon. I have an Echo and a Google Home Mini. Both are still in the box with the plastic wrap. The Echo was a gift and the GHM was free with a Spotify subscription. I don't understand the draw - they're awful speakers and I already have a digital assistant in my phone, which is almost always closer to me than a smart speaker. As for the phones: I wish they would have left 5G out of the non-Pro variants and knocked $100 off the price. I can completely forgive the lack of high refresh rate displays on the non-Pro variants, yes it makes for a more premium UX, but it is purely a luxury feature. And like Quinn, I don't think there's any convincing reason to buy the 12 Pro (non-Max), that camera system should be on the regular 12, but perhaps not the Mini. Frankly, at this price without the third camera, the vanilla iPhone 12 makes the 11 look like a good value.
1:02. I guess they were trying to appeal to those that have tried mind-expansion.
Should have taken 60$ off all the prices for removing headphones and a power brick
I love the MagSafe feature, and the nod to the older design, but I’m just not as excited this year, nor last year. Probably going to rock my Xs Max for another year. It’s been a great phone for me.
I bought the 12 pro since i got a crazy deal for it, actually seen Quite a few (12 also). I doubt there will as good deals for the mini and Max versions, since then the sales for 12 pro and 12 would suffer.
