    Coincidentally, I recently upgraded from the iPhone 11 to iPhone 12 and the jump in performance was very noticeable!! 😅 I don’t know why people were complaining about frame drops in the user interface of the iPhone 12. I was quite confused about it, I was using the iPhone 11 at the time so I was scared to get the iPhone 12 till my iPhone 11 started to ghost touch!. A situation where the phone will randomly start opening apps and just glitching out! 😂I immediately ran to my local phone store and swapped it out for the iPhone 12. Ever since then I’ve been so much happier and confident with both the performance and battery life 😅

      @@Trippyricky69 “every other year”- as in every two years. And I replace it that often because it generally needs replacing- hence why I’m not replacing this one. It’s fine. But since you asked-
      Why to replace your phone every two years (or maybe three);
      Seven years is a crazy long time to not replace a phone, the differences in software are definitely noticeable at that point, and the camera upgrades and other fun changes are enough to make the upgrade worthwhile to me. There’s also a sweet spot on reselling your phone, hold on to it forever and it’s not worth much, one to two years before the battery deeply degraded and you’re getting a great return. I have opened and worked on almost every phone and computer I’ve ever owned and replacing the battery or screen yourself to get some extra life out of the thing is not usually buying you too much time or saving you much money considering you’re investing in something that has essentially depreciated to zero at that point.
      And obvious last point- because my metrics are obviously different than yours. I don’t spend money on much else in this world, but the tech around me brings me great joy and satisfaction and takes up most of my waning attention. I likes what I likes!

    This is an update :
    I finally made the move to upgrade from my iPhone 7 Plus to a iPhone 11. I bought it off eBay it is unlocked, refurbished to practically brand new. You cannot tell the difference between a refurbished phone and a brand new phone because of mine looks perfect. I bought it for $312. They normally go for $750. I’ve had this phone for three weeks now and I am 100% satisfied. Don’t waste your money on a brand new phone, refurbished is just as good and it comes with a one-year warranty.

    I recently bought a iPhone 12 Pro Max. I did buy it from Apple rather than from sources such as eBay, but I got it from Apple's refurb store. It was $200 more, but the eBay sellers only promised 80% battery and a 30 to 90 day guarantee. Apple refurb meant a new 100% battery and a full one-year Apple warranty. Given how long I keep iPhones, battery life is crucial. An 80% battery in a used one almost guarantees I'll face the hassle and expense of replacing it.

    I believe that title should go to the iPhone 12 Pro Max these days. It's depreciated enough in cost so that you can get the benefits of a Pro Max phone without spending over $1000 like the newer 13 and 14 lineups. Outstanding battery life, screen size, and all the stellar benefits of the regular 12 lineup as described in the video. If you budget it right, you can still do a 13 Pro or a 14 Pro like I did, but the best of the best for under $1k should really go to the 12 Pro Max. It can still do the fastest 5G bands and everything else the 13 and 14 phones do, but without the added cost.

    I have the 12 mini and I'll keep it till it dies since Apple have stopped making mini flagships; it's a brilliant phone is every aspect for my use, even the battery life, which is great, is hot a major issue for me since I'm a light use and I'm always close to a charger if needed anyway. Even aesthetically, I believe the 12/12 mini to be the best looking phone Apple have made, especially in the blue that the review unit has (which I have as well); its combination of almost flush lens module, svelte body and light weight are unmatched, even by the 13 mini (which I bought and returned).

    this is the phone I am getting as an early christmas present, except I got the pro max. I came from android for 3 years since 2020 and ever since being on android I had apps randomly download without my consent, battery drop down to 40% at night even tho it was fully charged before bed and wasn't in use. Camera doesn't want to focus, honestly a mistake I ever went with android. Before android I had the iPhone 6 plus in 2015 and boy did I miss iPhone lol. Never again will I switch back to android. I am excited to use animoji and memoji. After watching this video, I am glad I went with the 12 pro max cause the newer ones 1 are crazy expensive, 2 basically the same as the other ones in my own opinion and 3 I came to realize I don't need the fancy bells and whistles of the latest iPhone to be "up to date" when the ones from previous years can do the same thing with the same quality.

      Congratulations for having the courage to upgrade. I have a iPhone 7 Plus and the thought of losing my home button really bothers me. And what’s with all this face ID? Do you still have touch ID on your iPhone 12? Almost every one of my apps has touch ID and I’m wondering if the 12 has that.

All you need to make sure of is to buy from a place with a good return policy so that you can return the phone if you end up with one that has 80% battery health (which does happen) or is otherwise not to your liking.
