Apple launches iPhone 12, and iPhone 12 Pro brings new technology form factor to its consumers. The latest iPhone has a new look with a complete approach to 5G, sharper lenses, and faster performance. Additionally, some best features come with a super-sharp digital zoom and fast refresh rate displays.
For me, the flat edges are much better with improving durability with new Apple’s ceramic shield material added. The grip with flat edges and bezels considerably smooth compared to iPhone 11. Using the fastest chip A14 Bionic Processor in Apple’s smartphone added more power that makes the camera takes low light to the next level.
It has also magnetic materials for MagSafe cases, wallets, and even chargers.

“Night mode comes to both the Wide and Ultra Wide cameras, and it’s better than ever at capturing incredible low-light shots. LiDAR makes Night mode portraits possible. And the Wide camera lets in 27 percent more light, for greater detail and sharper focus day or night”, according to Apple.
Apple stated that they are reducing carbon footprint issues, and so some items are not included in the box like the power adapters, EarPods, and USB-A lightning cables. You might still use your old lightning-cable, wireless charger, and earphones.
Is it worth buying?
Yes, especially for those people with 2-year-old iPhones.
Should I upgrade from iPhone 11 to iPhone 12?
It depends. But I would rather wait for another model next year.
The iPhone 12 comes with Silver, Graphite, Gold, and Pacific Blue different colors with the ceramic shield in front, textured matte glass at the back, and stainless steel design.
