BMSmith, 20 Oct 2020When we're speaking about objectively better smartphon... moreI'm not saying that the OS is superior, it's just that iPhone apps better take advantage of the features ON the iPhone.
It also supports 5 years of software updates, which is more important then just the new features, it keeps your phone up to date in security.
Apple's features aren't 5 years late on average, dark mode was fairly recent, ARKit is fairly recent, etc. There are a few outliers such as widgets, but I think that apple's implementation is more streamlined(purely my opinion).
"most people use android in your work area".
Not to be rude, but do you work in a 3rd world country? In the U.S most people at work use iPhones.

JDK, 20 Oct 2020On the other hand, I think your "usually better" ... moreWhen we're speaking about objectively better smartphones, the core components of that smartphone are a major aspect. Of course, the OS is also a crucial component, but regardless of emotional or anecdotal experience, flagship OS is overall fantastic across the board. Whether you go for a iPhone, Samsung, OnePlus, Pixel and you're paying iPhone money and up (SE 2020, £399 or iPhone 11, £729) you're not going to experience a laggy, bug-ridden experience.
I have to add the 'usually' as a disclaimer, because understandably not every android smartphone has a better camera or battery life, but when we're being fair and controlling for price point - android has it, hands down.
inb4 your (quite likely) emotional rebuttal using Apple-approved catchphrases like 'the ecosystem' and 'it just works!' - I work in a smartphone retailer. I'm selling, handling, troubleshooting and repairing smartphones 40+ hours a week and have done so for the past seven years. The sheer amount of individuals with iPhone's who pour in daily regarding irreparable software bugs, faulty updates bricking the phones, customers requesting to do extremely basic tasks (backing up with iCloud, updating software, iMessage issues) that just flat out DON'T work, is staggering.
Pop into most smartphone retailers and ask the employees what phones they're using - you'll find it's disproportionately android, because we deal with them every day and we see that pound for pound, emotion removed, they're inferior handsets. You might disagree with that - and you're welcome to - but that's my experience after handling thousands of smartphones over nearly a decade.

BMSmith, 14 Oct 2020What a redundant comment. If that's all you could come... moreOn the other hand, I think your "usually better" part was redundant. You tried to explain android superiority only through specs then fit in the vague "usually better" to fill in your "superiority" list.

MTZ, 19 Oct 2020iPhone 12 Pro Max has 3687mAh Li-On battery I wish Apple didn't decrease the thickness and kept the same 3969mAh from the 11 Pro Max. I understand that the A14 has much better power consumption and the battery life will be the same, but still.

lee, 19 Oct 2020is this worth upgrading from my 11 pro max people? Worth is a relative thing. If your salary is high, then yeah it's worth it. If you're stretching yourself to do it, no it's not worth it. You're well aware of the difference between 11 Pro and 12 Pro, so it's up to your financial situation to decide.

Kingy, 19 Oct 2020Hi, I have an iPhone 7 Plus. Been a great phone for 3 years... moreAbsolutely, more so this generation than before. 100$ gets you a bigger screen, bigger battery, and better camera system. No brainer. 12 Pro is an extremely awkward position this year because the regular 12 shares 99% of the features.

NewUser07 , 19 Oct 2020Yes, bye bye Android , the worst possible OS prone to hacki... moreWow imagine. You just seem like your a android hater tbh. Android and IOS have their own Cons. So intstead of hating on a OS you don't like how about learn the pros and cons. Instead of making One look Good and Make the Other look bad. Because thats exactly what you're doing dude lol. IOS is for people who like their phones Functions out of the box and Android is for people who like tinkering. In my preference I choose both they both have their pros and cons.

Kingy, 19 Oct 2020Hi, I have an iPhone 7 Plus. Been a great phone for 3 years... moreFor me personally , no point to paying extra for pro 6.1 when this is minor upgrade from 6.1 iphone so either iphone 12 6.1 $800 or 12 pro max $1100.But 12 pro max is a big phone i used to have 11 pro max and i had difficulties to sit in the car with this phone in the pocket , still this was most enjoyable phone ever for me to used , and i'm going for 12 pro max.

Hi, I have an iPhone 7 Plus. Been a great phone for 3 years. Looking to jump to Iphone 12 pro or max. I have liked the bigger screen with the 7 plus, so want to stay big. Any real advantage of going the extra mile for the Max over just the 12 Pro? Comments welcome. Ta

Ill be buying the Ip... moreYes, bye bye Android , the worst possible OS prone to hacking and Samsung worst phone maker, it’s ripping off people by putting their own chipsets which are the weakest and charging higher price then anyone. Even MediaTek which is considered to be a low to middle performance chipset is better overall. Enough said , I won’t ever in my life buy another Android phone.

lee, 19 Oct 2020is this worth upgrading from my 11 pro max people? @ Lee I don't see why you should. Very minor upgrades, besides, no charger nor headphones this year. A downgrade sounds more real.

First time ever to own an Iphone soon. Ill be buying the Iphone 12 Pro Max. Im from Galaxy Note 5 (exynos) and Xiaomi NOte 9 Lite.
I also like the Note 20 Ultra, but I learned my lesson with the Exynos. So, ill give Iphone a try this time.
What is like in Iphone 12 Pro max:
- Size. The bigger the better. =)) The best size in the market I guess. The rest are elongated rectangle. Lol!
- 5G
- New Camera System. I like photography and videography.
- Build Quality
- OS
So excited! =))) Bye Android! (for now)
