Apple iPhone 12 review
We were big fans of last year’s iPhone 11, and huge improvements made to the design and display mean that its successor gets an equally emphatic thumbs-up. In fact, we’d go as far as to say that if you think you can live without the telephoto camera (and most people probably can), you should save yourself the £150-£200 (depending on which configuration you go for) and get the 12 ahead of the Pro. In so many ways it’s exactly the same phone, and is just as 5G-ready, though don’t let that be the reason you upgrade. Big or small phone lovers should hold on for verdicts on the two iPhones still to come this year, but for everyone else, the iPhone 12 is one of Apple’s very best to date.
Stunning to look at and impressively light in the hand; Finally an OLED display for the non-Pro iPhone; 5G future-proofed; Brilliant, versatile camera system ;
We’d rather have a telephoto than the ultra-wide; 5G may be here, but most people won’t find much of it yet; Battery life decent rather than brilliant ;
