          Anonymous, 25 Jan 2021lol, sue them to oblivionThere’s a reason every phone has a separate safety pamphlet enclosed when ever you buy a phone. Every cell phone can interfere with that type of equipment. It is just that with the iPhone 12 they have that wireless capability where the magnets are on the outside of the phone. It will be hard to sue them with all the documentation they include with purchase.

            Yet another half baked feature rolled out.
            Software full of bugs, Hardware full of bugs! Brand boys will justify this as good for them as well.

              abigfanoftechs, 25 Jan 2021The US minimum wage is around $8/hr. Apple being a US company should be paying at least $6/hr. They manufacture in China though

                Anonymous, 25 Jan 2021Doesn't all phones interfere with pacemakers ? It's not talking about the phone interfering. It's talking about the magnets that hold the wireless charger up that are built in the phone. As the phones today are so large you cant have them in your pants pockets so you have them in close to heart jacket pockets

                    You are using MagSafe accessories wrongly
                    You are holding iPhone 12 Series wrongly

                      That means that if you have it in your pocket when you are walking in the street, or driving and you have an accident and emergency try to reanimated you with a defibrillator, they probably can't. Sounds like Tesla and their autonomous cars to me. A good way to spend more than 1200 euros on a phone that can kill you.

                                      Headline quote, "The iPhone 12 magnets might interfere with pacemakers, Apple warns"

                                      The quoted headline may well be conclusively proven with further research, however one thing that certainly requires no further investigation and is fully recognised, is the fact that:

                                      'The iPhone 12 cost of ownership does interfere with disposable income, North Pole warns'.
