iPhone 12 - Early Impressions!

 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.

17' Razer Blade Pro 2019

 Hey Guys, Welcome back to Interesting Intelligence! This laptop is SO much better than the previous blade pro. The thermals are crazy good. I would say that it is their best gaming laptop with awesome thermal performance. This laptop is brand new from this year, It is completely redesigned. It is their most expensive, most powerful and the most big-screened gaming laptop and it's a nice looking unit. I like this laptop a lot, however, there are some things which I want you to know if you're interested in picking this thing up! 1) Hardware The build of this device is very similar to the build of the 15' this year. It's got the same kind of design, shape, the light-up snake logo up front. It is very much an updated Razer product. I highly recommend you for getting a case or skin it if you buy a black one because even with very safe handling this device sometimes has dents and they are very much visible on a black one.         This laptop is obviously big...

16' MacBook Pro

These are my thoughts on 2019 16' MacBook Pro with improved thermals, better specs and new Radeon Pro 5000M Series GPUs. This laptop has been rumoured forever and many people had this device on their wishlists as well. This device is something special. The 16' inch screen is the least interesting thing to me. It looks like this is a device launched after a long time where they really cared about what users actually want. This laptop is slightly bigger and heavier than the 15' model which is obvious. The top of the keyboard now has a physical escape key and the keyboard is no longer a Butterfly keyboard it is now upgraded to a Scissor-Switch keyboard. It has a very similar mechanism to an iMac. The key-press travel has increased from 0.5mm to 1mm. It is a significant improvement and anybody who does not like MacBooks for the new keyboards; " Welcome home". The tried to use the Butterfly keyboard but I am glad that they are done with them, The second thi...

Surface Pro X

This is my review of the Microsoft Surface Pro X. Do you think this ARM-based tablet can compete with the iPad Pro or Surface Pro? Surface Pro X is a product which was clearly designed to compete with what iPads offer. This is a thin, elegant looking, magnetically attached tablet that has an ergonomic design that looks good with good battery life and still runs Windows 10 for the functionality that people want in a computing device. I am gonna start with hardware and then I will come to user experience. This is not a super-light machine. It is slightly lighter than the regular Surface Pro. It has a bigger screen and thinner bezels and is heavier than an iPad Pro. The finish of this device is black anodized aluminium. I also found that some of the edges have got sharper. Due to the sharp edges, this device becomes prone to damages which generally should not be the case in premium Surface devices. Protect this stuff! I highly recommend a skin for this device. This is a go...
