Should YOU Buy The iPhone 12?

The video examines whether the iPhone 12 is worth upgrading to, starting with the new features revealed during Apple's September event. It highlights the shift to 5G connectivity, noting that all models support 5G and that millimeter wave is available only on US models, while other regions get the slower 5G standards. The discussion then moves to the A14 Bionic chip, emphasized as built on a five nanometer process by TSMC, promising a significant performance jump without sacrificing battery life. The display upgrade to OLED is explained, with brightness up to 1200 nits for HDR content, and the ability to record HDR with Dolby Vision, marking a potential step toward mainstream HDR video on mobile devices. Camera improvements are covered, including night mode for standard and wide-angle cameras, and LiDAR on the Pro models to enhance AR experiences and faster focusing in low light. Additional hardware notes cover MagSafe returning as a wireless charging solution, while the device retains the Lightning connector, delaying a USB-C or universal port transition. The base iPhone 12 and the mini are described as nearly identical in core specs, with the mini merely differing in size. The host concludes with practical upgrade questions, such as whether the new features justify upgrading and the unusual omission of a charging brick in the box, and invites viewer feedback for future topics and upcoming events. The video wraps with a plug for Pulseway’s Techathlon event and a quick reminder to engage with the channel for more content, merch, and prizes.
