Yea, this is definitely convenient actually by just adding eSim profile

I was actually denying this like others of having physical until i saw the beauty of eSim later on

hahaha....removing charging port is just my wild guess, but they Jony Ive always have this portless single slab of glass phone idea since long time ago.

But putting it as further cut down carbon emission is a good idea though

time for me to buy iPhone 11... haha

bro... wrong thread

i still have my non usb earpod the 6s earpod .. and the last one is the thunderbolt

but now im using airpods pro

jony no more working in apple ..

Get the latest and best if you're switching. No ragrets talking from experience, lifelong android user -> 11 pro

Lol.. if there is thunderbolt on iphone will mark up further the pricing XD

Doens't exactly helps on reading at all but it will actually elevates the whole device experience. Imagine navigating through (90/120hz) with this already fluid iOS device, watching videos with fast movement scene, gaming and etc. I don't see how it is a "plus" feature, at that given price point and the availability of the technology year 2020. Smartphone usage surpass any other device that you use today, it is no-brainer thing to add this feature to elevate the premium experience that apple has to offer. I guess apple will come out next year with 50/100 dollar increase in price for adoption of this technology.

Wouldn't complain if they didn't add in iphone 12 mini and iphone 12 because of the price affordability. But on the pro? What the hell. Guess that saves me some money by getting the i12 mini this time around haha.
My mind might changed because of the battery tho, with 4g or even 5g (in the future) and location + airpod pro on together no idea if the device can last me a day lol.

You should still consider to switch over to apple tho if you are not utilizing customization offered by android.

ouch... really ouch...
i might stick with my original decision then...

Well said. The fluidity of 90hz or 120hz display is really something that once you get used to, its hard to go back to 60hz. I would not say its a necessity but having it would be a luxury most of us look into having after paying top dollar for a top of the line model from a phone manufacturer. One of the hurdles Apple would be facing should it decide to use the 120hz or 90hz screen on the current line of Iphone would be the optimization of its firmware to meet the battery drain from the 120hz display. The small capacity battery on the Iphone 12 Pro Max would not be adequate to accommodate the demand of battery juice from the 120hz screen.
Many current android phones with 120hz displays are coping with the increase in battery drain from the screen by providing batteries with larger capacity batteries but it seems to be just not enough. Another issue would be Apple would also need to make its app developers come up with 120hz compatible versions of their apps so that it will run 120hz displays on its phones. So basically we could put it at IOS is still behind in this tech and implementation takes much time and effort to make it work and hence the need to delay implementation to the next iteration of the Iphone for next year.
Whatever it is, it would be up to potential buyers to decide if this generation of the Iphone would be worth getting.

Casing already available on ninjaz. Lol.. so fast, but phone itself dunno when come here

With the mini, powerbank is your best friend.. in this recent 2-3 years my powerbanks already collecting dust, phones are having large batteries and last easily the whole day (plus fast chargers).. can't imagine to go back to powerbank route

It's not just for the 5G, plenty of folks already forked out top dollar for 5G Android phones. At least with the iPhone 12, you are assured of getting software updates till 2025 - so hopefully 5G is good by then!

Well I guess if its a technological hurdle then yeah it make sense. They could have adopt an option to switch on 120hz (on/off) though, leaving 60hz by default since the panel supports it. Frankly speaking, I would spend getting a Max if more battery required to run at high refresh rate. I guess its just apple being apple, important to get things right at the first go, at the expense for a slow adoption.

Thats the trade-off making me dilemma in getting the pro or mini. :'(

I think you hit the nail right on the head with that. They do tend to overthink it sometimes. Not only do they have to get it right but they’ll pressure the app developers to do so as well and by the time everything comes together, they’ve missed yet another upgrade cycle and will have to wait for the next one...

The missing 90hz/120hz refresh rate display doesn’t bother me. The retention of the Lightning port in favour of a USB C port doesn’t bother me. In fact, the missing charging brick and earphones don’t trouble me too, but I really did wish they incorporated Touch ID into the power button like they did for the latest iPad Air. In the times of COVID and compulsory face coverings, that would have been very useful!

I think Apple just do not want to go backward on a technology when they have incorporated a FaceID in it. With this development I am gonna say under screen touchID would not even happen for the iPhone.

is magsafe available on iphone 12 mini or only for pro version?

If you do a lot of readings 120MHz is a must. My eyes much more comfy reading via iPad Pro

iPhone 8 model onwards
