Thanks. That mean a protector is still required?

tbh no..

You don't swipe your cameras like a screen to "use" it

Surface area also smaller so chances to scratch it also smaller

And a camera protector also cause decrease image quality because of the cheap glass they use

Dbs app can only be use for fast transaction? Been using to authorized online payment, transfer of fund, checking trans record
So far no issue, not using to pay bills though

No, they never did use real sapphire despite advertising them as "sapphire" for past models

It's their own formula of glass that's weaker than sapphire, notice they no longer advertise it as "sapphire" on their tech specs page

Not true.
this is shown on the tech specs of iphone 12
"Sapphire crystal lens cover"

Oh, my bad

They still got cheek to call it "sapphire"

When it scratches at level 6/7 when real sapphire glass scratch at level 9

i am sure it is sapphire crystal. if not the out of work lawyers will have already sued big time.

if you doubt it.. just use your iphone 11 camera back and rub a naked iphone 12 screen. you will become a believer ...

Yeah I doubt it because he can scratch it with a level 6/7 Mohs pick...

They're probably getting away with it because their "sapphire glass" is a hybrid or contains some sapphire hence they can call it "Sapphire crystal lens cover"

I mean he literally scratched the camera lens on the video.......

Who is recommending covering the lens with $5 glass?

In fact I recommend not doing that just a few posts above

And wow.. got video evidence by the credible "JerryRigEverything" not any random youtuber, scratching it with a level 6/7 Mohs pick

but "Apple says it's sapphire so it must be sapphire that scratches at level 9!!!!!"

sue apple if you firmly believe apple is lying.... lol
i am just correcting your facture error that sapphire crystal lens cover is stated in the tech specs.
too much false info on this forum.

Did you not read my previous reply?

You can believe they're using "sapphire" all you want

What I'm sharing is they're not using the same quality sapphire as found on watches that is 9 on the Mohs hardness

Here's Apple's "Sapphire" for those interested

haiz... i can't believe i am replying to this
1) you know how thick is the sapphire crystal on watches?
2) from what i see in the video it can be a fracture instead of scratch. it is common to do a vapour deposit process and it can be a few microns thickness. so it has 9mohs hardness but can easily crack. again i am speculating.

My iPhone 11 Pro Max after 1 year of charging, still got 96%, it was 97% but dropped to 96% after I started to PD charge.
