Umair, 16 Mar 2022Its an anomaly. I am using iPhone since almost 1 yr. And its battery life dropped to 93% in 8m... moreLucky you.
My iPhone 12's battery life is at 89% after a year and two months.
It's still very good tho, as I lowered the brightness, disabled auto brightness and automatic app updates.

And its battery life dropped to 93% in 8m... moreI follow a pattern for iPhones like charge your device between 20% to 95% i charge my iPhone in office with 20W adapter when battery drops to 20% and then i charge it to 95% or 94 and after using it for a year its still on 100% :) Don't use your phone in extreme temperatures. Also remove case while charging.

Exikias, 11 Mar 2022I don’t know if it’s normal but mine in the last 3 weeks dropped from 93% to 90% now..so no idea Its an anomaly. I am using iPhone since almost 1 yr. And its battery life dropped to 93% in 8months and now its still at 93%
I have been almost continuously using same charger (Tronsmart Travel Adapter WCP05) but have been using its normal port USB-A(I think its 12w max) in this period. And now since 2weeks or so using its PD port and an old NEXUS 5x charger but battery still at 93%.
What i observed that this battery drop usually occurs after some iOS updates. And I always immediately update my iPhone on whatever latest update comes

RandyRiffin, 26 Jan 2022Yet you will continue to buy it. Because even though Apple face id is useless, there is SOMETH... moreLOL these days most Apple haters are the one that can’t afford iPhone. iPhone no longer a luxury product, especially in North America iPhone 12 is going for the same price as mid range Android phones. And unlike mid rage android phones most of them made with plastic and has very poor spec, iPhone 12 still look and feel and perform just as good as new iPhone 13

It started off with me having my iphone 8 which I've had since 8th grade. It was better back then but as time goes on and they keep creating newer gen phones, the iphone 8 just wasn't able to keep up with all the new things added. After experiencing many problems with the 8 such as the phone getting hot, freezing, and just generally not working in some situations. I decided it was finally time for an upgrade. So I worked until I was able to afford my own phone. After saving up enough I went to try to get the iphone x, but I never thought I would be leaving out with the iphone 12. Overall I think this is the best phone I have ever used, and always had the best feeling and never had a bad experience with this phone. At the rate they are releasing new iPhones it won't be long before the iPhone 12 is outdated.
Features
There are new features such as no home button, more and better cameras, etc. they have upgraded the camera to have new integration such as 12-megapixel (wide), 12-megapixel (ultra-wide) 4k resolution, with the iphone 8 plus only having a 12 MP camera with autofocus. The iphone 12 has better significant battery life to last 17 hours which is 3.5 times higher than the iphone 8 which only has 13.5 hours. They also have added 5g to the iphone 12 for better phone service and connection. The phone is also compatible with wireless charging. It has a built in ceramic shield front which makes it tougher to crack.
Price ranges and variants
The iphone 12 cost is about 699 dollars but you can make payments on it for 29.12 a month. Money can be taken off the cost if you trade in another iphone but it depends o
n your current phone and the condition of it. There are many colors to choose from and variants of the phone as well. Such as the iphone 12 mini, 12 pro, and the 12 pro max with the mini being the smallest and the pro max being the largest size.
Software
The latest software in the iPhone is IOS 15.3. which redesigns the whole layout of how the phone works. Features included in this update are portrait mode, new facetime layout and enhancements, added spatial audio, a redesign of the notifications, bug fixes, upgrades to the Ai Siri, and improved performance of the phone.

For people thinking if the phone is worth it or not.
iPhone 12 is the cheapest iPhone with 5G from Apple. Is not the best of course and you can find better priced iPhones out there, if you are not interested in 5G (something like iPhone 11 Pro or 11 Pro Max).
Keep in mind though, that iPhone models older than 2 years (11 series and below) will come with battery health of 82-86% usually. Is not entirely bad, but just keep in mind that if you want to use your iPhone for more than 6 month a battery update will definitely be required (so extra money spent).
Thus being said, iPhone 12 models (even the second hand ones) come with minimum 95% battery health. Because is a newer model.
Now comes the more tricky part. If you want to buy an iPhone 12 directly from the store, new at full price, is not worth it. Because the iPhone 12 (128Gb variant) is almost the same price as iPhone 13 (128Gb variant). Even though the iPhone 13 is not so much of an improvement from iPhone 12 (I am talking about vanilla versions here), still if you have both phones at similar prices, iPhone 13 is the better option.
But, if you can get an iPhone 12 much cheaper (something like unsealed or almost new from specialized stores), then is worth it. You will pay 150-200EUR less than an iPhone 13.
Conclusion, iPhone 12 directly from the store, new with full price is not worth it. Get the iPhone 13 instead at similar price. iPhone 12 second hand device (as almost new or something similar), much cheaper than an iPhone 13, is worth it.

Lio53, 28 Jan 2022Trust me, buy iPhone 11 pro max...Don’t buy 11 pro now bcoz 11 pro is not having Face ID with mask option.Buy 12 as it’s a 5g phone and it does have option for option for Face ID with mask. Only thing in 11 pro is a telephoto lens other than that buying 11 pro now makes no sense
