This blog is about my first impressions at the iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 Pro with Magsafe.
Where is the Charging Brick?
The iPhone boxes have become half of their original sizes which is great! The box contains iPhone, sim ejector, the cable and an Apple sticker. So, there is no adapter! At first, I was moved by the marketing on how this could be useful for the environment. But, after my own research, I realized that I was wrong. They should not have removed the adapter.
Size Matters!
The back material for both fo these phones feels good. But, you may get finger-marks on the iPhone 12 whereas you don't get then on the 12 Pro. Now, both of these phones have flat edges which are positives for me. The iPhone 12 is smaller than the iPhone 11 but, iPhone 12 Pro is bigger than the iPhone 11 Pro. The bezels stay the same for both of the phones. They have thinner bezels than last year and they look really nice now. Even though iPhone 12 Pro is more expensive the iPhone 12 aesthetically feels the same if not better.
Screen.
The screen has not changed for iPhone 12 Pro but, there is the biggest improvement in iPhone 12. OLED!!! We finally have it. The colour contrast and everything just look amazing.
Magsafe
Apple has put some magnets at the back of the iPhones. So, that you can attach cases and wallets and other accessories. The most popular one is the new wireless charger. The thing different about it is that you can use it while you charge simultaneously. And for your surprise, there isn't a charging brick with this as well. It is getting a little too much Apple! This thing is literally made for charging! This charger works with other phones as well. In fact, it looks like a bigger Apple watch charger. Now, I have my concerns. When you connect the charger there is a pleasant sound but there is a very harsh contact with the metal rim on the charger as well. I think that can cause damage to the phone but, it is something which only time will tell. (There won't be any problem if you have a cover though) Now, you gotta realize that this isn't what Magsafe is all about, there is a lot to come.
Thanks
