I personally like having 5.4 inch iphone, but I am really concerned about the battery life. Iphone SE failed on battery tests. If 4.7 inch failed with 1820mah battery, I guess the same goes to little iphone 12 with 2800mah battery."

New iPhones will use 30% more power efficient chip, numbers on paper doesn't tell anything what real battery life might be. This is usually problem with Android fans, they think big numbers are only thing which matters. Let's not forget that android fans laughted iPhone 11 battery sizes and yet new iPhones had great battery life with those smaller batteries compared to Android phones.

I think the battery life going to bo same level than last year pro models=very good. Definately lot better than SE.

    I hope Apple will fix the battery endurance on this model so it worth to buy it!! Otherwise I'm going for 11

            Bogdan, 27 Jul 2020Everybody wants innovation, but nobody knows how that innov... moreThat's because their foldable phone had a weird notch in tablet mode, a too small display in phone mode and kept falling apart. It was badly designed. Huawei made the better foldable phone and leading phone innovations at the moment.

              Notch in 2020 ?! Looks like Android will meet its great grandfather this year. Who needs FaceID when you already have under display fingerprints. its time that Apple gets back to work for under display fingerprint sensors. Notch design is dated. Plus resolution of display is way behind in terms of Android phones. In the times of Dynamic AMOLED, Apple's yet stuck to OLED. Plus 5-10 years of updated, which makes no sense because those updates you already have it in Androids 5 years back. I did use iPhone 7 +, great phone but lacked many new features of 2020.

                Well, the wheel can't be invented the second time. Until some company will come up with some miraculous new thing that will shake the phone industry, this is what phones will be like.
                Also innovation can be bad too, so companies that have build reputations don't want to risk it all just to send something new and untested to the general public. Especially with how picky people are nowadays.
                What phone company is really innovating something nowadays? Maybe just Samsung. And look how many people bought their foldable phone.

                  2,227mAh battery! Really! Much more than expected. We are in second half of 2020 now so, it should have been 2020mAh max. But surprisingly they are giving much more than 2020, It's 2227mAh!

                    Wait, all the leaks before this say that 2020 will be an all OLED lineup?

                    I do not believe this one bit.

                      Forget the Iphone 12 and Iphone 12 Max. Get the Poco F2 pro, Samsung Galaxy S20 Fan edition, or the Note 20 (normal). They offer better user experience. I am not complaining about LCDs and Low res and notch. As they each have their function. But, low battery size, 5W charging, outdated tech makes it look worse. After the IPhone X/Steve Jobs Dead, there is no more thing that is excting about Iphone.


                      When they announce the Iphone 12 Pro, they said : "This is the most advanced Iphone we have ever
                      created. "

                      "Iphone 12 have the best video quality of any smartphone."

                      "This is the fastest chip ever in a smartphone."

                      "This is the fastest download speeds ever in a smartphone." (5G)

                      I am sicked of hearing that, Iphones lately have no innovations.

                              For such an inovative brand (like the fans like to consider it) tfor he past years they came with nothing.
                              Just a trandy brand for users who have to carry a charger everywhere they go.
