there are many camps on battery charging. i used to plug in my 7+ to keep it always fully charged. 4 years later now it still has 81% battery life.

But now with my other new phones, i discharge till 20%+ before charging to 80%+ most of the time. I seldom charge to 100% nowadays.

It is still not very clear which is the most correct methods to charge/discharge battery, but the former seems to be popular now.

I actually did the same routine for my all my phones all this while. Was on Android platform before, and I remembered downloading AccuBattery and I followed the instructions as to how to preserve battery life.

12 mini user here. No software or hardware issue. Guess it's depending on luck. I love the size.

Only issue is with battery life. My previous iPhone is 11 Pro so it's obvious that I'm used to that level of battery life. Now back to "normal" battery life, it feels so unreal that I have to charge my 12 mini more frequently.

Happy to answer any questions about 12 mini.

Mind sharing with us the average screen on time you get and your usage habits? Definitely need mid-day charge?

Reddit opinions are generally very favourable of the Mini. I think having a fast charger will be important with a Mini since you can quickly top up as needed

I know that many people have encountered this issue, but either they didn't post updates of their resolution or there simply isn't one.

My iPhone 12 Pro Max's display is extremely warm/ yellow compared to my old iPhone 7plus. I have True Tone turned OFF. I have also read about "the glue from manufacturing still curing, causing the warm tone - which some have said was baloney". May I know if anyone else is facing the same issue, and how did you fix it? Is this a faulty display?

Tbh, every new iPhone’s screen is warmer from the previous model. Been at it since 3GS until now, every generation got ppl say warm screen. I think basically is screen lottery. Some is more cool, some is more warm. I’m alright with it.

Quite amazed by the battery life of 12 pro max. Previous phone was 11 pro max and normally before I end work my phone will be at around 20-30% battery left. One thing to note is I’ll normally charge my phone overnight and will start my day at 100% battery.

Full charged and unplugged my 12 pro max before I sleep last night, had a short video call and scrolled social media before I sleep. Continue to use the phone as it is during the day, before I left work it’s still above 30% battery :eek:

Of course it’s an unfair comparison as my 11 pro max battery health was 88% before i replace it with 12 pro max. But the battery is not bad after all!

My experience is different from yours. My iPhone 11 Pro Max battery health 96%. Somehow I feel iPhone 11 Pro Max battery last longer a bit than this iPhone 12 Pro Max. Maybe need a little more calibration of the battery to be accurate but yeah, battery life is good ;)

Having both then 11 pro max and 12 pro max and testing both in the same scene over the past few days, I can safely say that the 12PM is superior to the 11PM.

Only issue is that the min focusing distance is higher for the 12 PM

Well the guy at allaboutwindowsphone is a trusted camera reviewer. I has been following him since Symbian era
