Wow the phone itself isn't even out yet but haters already using losing their minds here hahahaha

    Peachy001, 19 Mar 2020I'd like lower phone prices, but not more than I'd like my ... moreI hope your dad will be there too:)

    I too hope it will reduce prices on smartphones.

Hopefully the Corona virus crisis will leave people with less money and a destroyed economy so that people won't pay that kind of money for a phone thereby forcing manufactures to reduce prices.

          Emeline Shaw, 18 Mar 2020I agree that iPhone 12 Pro Max will be the best phone but t... moreMost of the prices seem astronomical to me, cannot believe people pay more than £50pm for a phone and contract. £30 used to be my sweet spot. Was due an upgrade a couple of years ago, 10 months before Pixel 3 launched. Pixel 2 looked good, but due to changing work, I went SIM only and waited. When it launched, the price plans were too high, so I waited a while, ended up getting a 2XL second hand whilst I waited for Pixel 4. I thought it was dire, so still waiting to see a phone worthy enough.

            Ja8, 18 Mar 2020So true and they want to get more money so that next series... moreThat's true but Apple has always been cheating and scamming people - nothing new here. Just take a look at battery-gate and now they have also been convicted to pay a huge fine. Hopefully Apple will recieve much more fines for their consumer-hostile behavior..

            Just the fact that they pay 0% in taxes says everything..

              Peachy001, 18 Mar 2020I want it, and stereo recording. Apple squashes bugs well, ... moreI agree that iPhone 12 Pro Max will be the best phone but the price tag will be astronomical - it will start at 1799 dollars and the most expensive version will costs 2199 dollars.

                Just like the S20 and S20+, I still cannot see any benefit of ToF apart from fake bokeh in Portrait mode. Just give me direct natural bokeh from the camera lens all day long.

                  Flgshp2020, 18 Mar 2020Don't worry, you'll get that in 2030 and Apple will call it... moreI see what you did there. LOL

                    Maria, 18 Mar 2020For those who can speak to Apple: please open the bluetooth... moreDon't worry, you'll get that in 2030 and Apple will call it revolutionary.

                      uk7866, 18 Mar 2020Tof is overratedToF can assist AF like Laser.
                      Problem is almost all use just because Bokeh.
                      Despite the Bokeh still have same issues of those that do not have ToF.

                        Emeline Shaw, 18 Mar 2020Seriously, who cares about sh*tty ToF. How about better dis... moreI want it, and stereo recording. Apple squashes bugs well, unlike Google. I thought the Pro Max last year was their best device for years. I think Samsung is still poor in cameras, but nail most other things. Google, well they are rumoured to go mid range this year, which is laughable. They really only had to do a few things, as they already had epic photography. Just needed a good screen, and improved battery. To me, the Apple 12, with these additions, will be the best all round phone. It's cameras, screen, battery, design, they're all on point.

                            Seriously, who cares about sh*tty ToF. How about better displays, larger battery, less bugs on release, much much better ultra wide camera etc. Apple always focuses on meaningless things nobody wants.

                              Tof is overrated

                                        For those who can speak to Apple: please open the bluetooth and NFC to other devices (i.e laptops, payment tools, NFC card readers, etc).
