Me. Currently 6s+. Considering the Pro.

But will wait for Pro Max to hit retail before deciding again. Need to have a hands on to get a better feel.
6s+ and 12pm about same size. Most likely no problem for you

For those getting less than satisfactory experience with the battery life, may I know what is your day-to-day usage like? What do you do?

ya...

my S20U on wifi can hit 8hrs with surfing+video+moderate gaming MLBB.
pure gaming is around 5hrs

not comparing with android with apple.. just want to know as im targeting 12pm

btw s20u batt is 5000mah, 12PM IS 3687mah.
last time i heard apple phones can last as long as android eventhou their batt is a huge gap. true?

Been a frequent power bank user when using s20+
Some days even need to charge 2 times :(
Depends on your usage also. If game a lot still not enough. Surfing, video and music no problem

All of you who say cannot go back to this size that size. Tell you what, it*********s can one, after a few days. Your mind will auto adjust and then it will be your best phone again.

This is true.
Changed from 11 pro max to se2020.
After a few days, just enjoying the light weight and sleekness of the phone.
Going for the 12 pro max for the better camera. If not, would have went for 12 pro instead.

Yeap. But screen might be abit too big 5.8 to 6.7? :s13:

I find the 12p size most ideal, pocketable size with a big enough screen.

But will have to see again.

You know what they say. Once you go big, you can't go back.

My SOT:

11PM: 9hrs 30mins
ZF2: 8hrs 24mins
N20U: 6hrs

All tests are based on midnight at 100%, until next day reach around 20% then I plug in again.

My usage for the test during my off days: 4 episodes of tvb drama, social media, surf hwz, Clash of Clans, listening to music on BT or wired, while playing game.

Have since sold my ZF2 and 11PM. Awaiting 12PM to use in tandem with my N20U.

Gotten Caudabe Sheath Sea green color casing to match PB 12PM.

Don't worry so much on battery life lar bros, battery low just turn on low battery mode on iPhone. Medium power saving on Samsung. 1 to 2 years later you all also will change hp.

I only carry one phone out at any point of time. Switch sim card to the next phone maybe in 1 month block usage.

Anybody had difficulties trying to do a quick start setup from previous iPhone? It’s so frustrating where it just fails out of the box.

Last resort is to use iCloud transfer but iPhone to iPhone should have been the easiest.

Those used to apple + size phones are more used to that type of form factor. Thus you feel smaller when go 12/12pro even though u gain screen real estate

I’m permanently stuck on the setting up Apple ID screen on my 12 pro. Restarted twice and still same results. Then once it progressed to ask me to agree to T&Cs, then told me data transfer failed and asked me to reset the device.

Anybody did phone to phone transfer and had problems?

what kind of difficulties?

I’ve been using iPhones since the 1st gen, and I would say size is relative to personal preference. I would love to have the iPhone 5 size but with the iPhone 12 Pro Max package. But of course that wouldn’t happen because packing so much specs into such a small form ain’t possible yet. But for those considering which phone to get, it’s more important to consider what’s your biggest need, is it battery life, size, specs, camera or heck even colour?

Personally I’ve used 6S+ and when X was released I was real happy that I finally got a smaller phone because taking selfies and navigating with one hand was much easier. Even dozing off while playing with the phone in bed didn’t cause so much pain when the phone fell on my face. Fast forward to 2020 and why did I choose the iPhone 12 Pro over the Pro Max was only because of size. I would love to have the camera features of the Pro Max and better battery life but because size matters much more, I went for the Pro instead. Why not mini then? Well, I liked the extra features of the Pro over the mini and I game alot, so 6.1” works better for me.

So for those still considering, ask yourself what do you need most, and what you don’t want. And for those who already got their phones, be happy! Otherwise there’s always the option to change phones hehe...
