Mai... moreHa ha let's say that you are not one of those losers who is just here to advertise about Pixel and that the problem you mentioned is real, in that case I don't think it's a widespread issue, otherwise more people would have mentioned the same. In any case, going to Pixel 4a 5G is ridiculous in its own right as that Pixels are the worst device in terms of Quality Control.
I am not an iPhone user by the way and my previous two devices are Pixel 1 XL and Pixel 2 XL but I am never touching that unfinished piece of garbage that the Pixels are.

I pre-ordered the day 1 and got the phone last Friday from apple.
While setting up, I found the screen is yellowish. Once I set up, I compared that side by side with my older iphone xs max and note 20 ultra. Any white is significantly yellow on the 12 pro max. The true tone toggle helps little but that can't be the solution and also still it was yellowish. As soon as I contacted Apple, they didn't even try to troubleshoot and right away offered for replacement or refund.
That was interesting as it sounded like they are aware. And I chose to get refund and will probably order later to get a different batch when they resolve this.

No, you wait for a software update to be pushed out smh. If you returned it, it had to have been for some other reason, this is just an incredibly stupid one.

I had mine for 3 days and ended up returning the phone. Main reason is the camera. It had 2 bugs in software and one in hardware, which is present in both 12 Pro and Pro Max models. Software issues: Flickering when shooting on 4k 60fps on main 1x sensor and lags and stuttering when shooting on 0.5x lens and 4k 60fps - when you press the screen to get exposure the issue is present. Hardware issue is with 1x lens when trying to shoot close photos - basically camera will just not focus full stop and some times you can hear weird noise. It's a nice phone don't get me wrong, but for this price tag issue as such should not be present. Not mentioning excessive ghosting and reflections when shooting at night/day and pointing into strong light sources. Videos are literally not usable at all. Ended up buying pixel 4a 5g and wow what a difference comparing to 12 Pro Max and at more than half price. Would really strongly advice to read about those issues and see videos and sample photos before spending 1000 plus on your phone! Majority of reviews unfortunately don't mentioned those and showing the bad side of the camera system, which is deal breaker for so many users. In high level, bigger and better sensors not always equal to better ;)

Seems to me like the iPhone 12Pro and ProMax take better pics at night than during the day, waiting for a phone that takes EXCELLENT day pics without needing to edit(unlike the S20 Plus) and EXCELLENT Night pics. And Zooms in 10 times, Samsung's bad habit of over softening skin is a big turn off for me and I have to apply a filter just for pics of people, selfies and even general pics to look natural on my S20 Plus

No one has mentioned the Zoom capability for regular photos, is it only a measly 2.5 times? My S20 Plus can zoom 30 times, but I use 10 times zoom for everything. Can the iPhone 12 Pro and ProMax zoom 5 times or more for regular photos? I use the 10 times zoom for Wildlife I can't get close to like Birds, Deer etc, if it can't zoom past 2.5 times then that's a deal breaker for me

I for one am excited. This year is my once every 3 years update to my phones. So my outgoing Note 8 and iPhone 8 plus are being replaced by the iPhone 12 pro max and Note 20 Ultra!

Good detailed review but I expected a section of longer exposure photos, like 2 or 3 sec. ones. But you kept it at default 1 sec. and never bothered to change.

Maybe it's just me, but I've found that the problem with integrating the ear piece and the loud speaker is that, one too many times, I've put the earpiece to my ear for a call, only to find out that I've unwittingly enabled the call's speaker option when answering! Then my ear drum gets blown out by the first sound of the caller next to my ear. Ouch! It stunningly hurts! And with how loud these phones are, it feels like it's really doing some real damage.
