Started using iphone as a main phone today.

When I am out of house, I use mobile data (since im out of house at 6am) and bluetooth (when travelling).

SOT from 88% to 48% about 3hrs.

Just got to hands on the iPhone 12/12pro. Hats off to those coming from previous bigger screen phones. The gold I saw, a lot of scratches at the bottom, screen also have many micro scratches. End up the phone doesn’t feel so premium anymore. The normal 12 was good thou. The matte frame feels very good and this phone is very light.

Yeap. The is ceramic shield is more shatter resistance, hence not as scratch resistance.

Because to make it less brittle (less chance of cracking on drops), the glass has to be softer. But making the glass softer means it's more prone to scratches. Unlike scratch resistant glass which is harder, but also more brittle because it's hard.

Now I know why mine got a scratch after 4 days.

In short, regardless of the technical mumbo jumbo, this new phone do not even have basic quality. Previous gens nor my other cheaper phones do not have such problems with prolong usage. No screen protector as well.

I usually don't mind wear and tear, but only after 4 days, this is disappointing quality from Apple.

This is quite worrying for us as consumers. Crapple decides to make life hard for consumers to use their products after end of product life. I might want to move back to Android after 12 mini.

Very good video

I thought so too. But based on the YouTube reviews the screen is more scratch resistant too.

Anyway all glass scratch so I always make sure I protect it from day one. Currently using tempered glass on front and waiting for hydrogel for sides and back (with case now).

For pro models, cases doesn’t prevent scratches at the sides, might be better if it comes with microfibre within the case though
