I just got my very first iPhone for my birthday last week. Price range was a couple hundred dollars. During Black Friday my Mom purchased a brand new iPhone 12 from our service provider for $300. It was originally $500
Congrats!🎉
I’m watching this on an iPhone 8, with a shattered backside, so anything after it is an upgrade for me
Same😂, everyone I come across is nagging me to upgrade, and we need to considering the battery life😅

Nahh fr I got a beat up 8 plus by it still works like a charm but I just ordered a iPhone 12 and giving this one to my mom she has a 6+ that glitches out a lot
Used to be me 5 months ago, upgraded to a 13
I had a wow effect after change my iphone 7 after seven years of usage to iphone 15
Thank you for making this video❤
Finally after requesting you soo much… the video on iphone 12 is finally out
iPhone 12 is the BEST VALUE FOR MONEY iPhone EVER at this price point period.
Not for long, if even. The 13 imo is the better choice in the long term, 1 year of extra software support + better SOC and especially battery life!

Your presentation is highly interesting to watch. Thank you very much and take care 😊
Absolutely. I bought iPhone 12 last year and very happy with it. Recommend.
Nice, it still has some life left for sure
@@nickackermanchannelhow many more years will it be supported?
I find it funny that people are upgrading from this, whereas I have a 7 and am upgrading to it! Incredible design and camera , plus I don’t see big enough differences to get the 15 😄
Same! I’m getting the iPhone 12 for my birthday upgrading from a 7 and it seems amazing compared to the 7
The guy said battery life is bad. It’s so much better upgrading from the iPhone 7 because I used to have the 7 the battery life is so much better because I have the iPhone 12.
Except the price.
I am using the iPhone 12, & I love it. I just got it used January 2023, & it’s going strong. When I do upgrade, I think I’ll go for the 14, but as for right now it’s a solid phone.
Awesome video! I loved the iPhone 12, but when the 14 came out, I started thinking that it’s time to get a new one, but I decided to hold off another year and bought an iPhone 15 Pro just after launch. The photo quality on the new iPhone 15 models is incredible. Compared to previous models. After watching this video I’m glad I did not hand down my iPhone 12 to my mom or dad. Both of them upgraded to the iPhone 13.
I’m turning 15 this year and this is my last year with my 12 mint green I’m looking to get the 13 pro max on Jan 8 2025 that’s when my plan is up
i just bought one and am pretty happy with it
Nice video bro keep it up and Happy New Year❤🎉
Same to you Happy New Year!
Love it, from south Africa 🇿🇦

Nice video
Still a great phone to get for its cheaper price if you dont care about the latest and greatest as it will probably lasts you for another 2 - 3 years 👍🏻

Thanks man 🤝
No problem 👍
This helped me so much! I am saving up to buy it and my parents are helping me ❤❤
Defo worth it !!! Just bought mine yesterday best choice ever
Yea mine also me and my wife bought i12 yesterday as early gift for our 2nd wedding anniversary 😊
hows the battery life? could last for 12 hrs? heavy usage?
@@kriskriss112 it was but they slower it down now
Would appreciate a battery test
I use an se but i'm considering buying an iphone 12, this is very helpful thank you
How long would you say the battery would last if your on KZhead and Spotify 99% of the time you’re on it
Can you do the 12 pro or 13 pro?
If there’s anything I could ask for more would be brighter display, more ram, and louder speakers. Other than that, I have no reason to upgrade at all. Battery health is at 91 and makes it through the day with casual use. Great phone I’d recommend
All those things you just listed the Samsung galaxy has all of that theyre about 10 steps ahead in the game than iphone lol
well sometimes people just prefer the layout of iphones, like me, I have used iphone all my life and can not switch to samsung as it is far too foreign. I know samsung is better but I prefer apple.@@josephr.8622
What about the camera ?
@@zaza2604 Cameras are not a priority for me. I’d be fine with a small upgrade
@@josephr.8622 totally agree. I just got a work phone from my company (s21FE5G) and checks off all those boxes
12 Pro user here. I bought mine new in 2020, and after a battery replacement, it’s been rock solid for me. I plan on keeping it for another year or so; the 15 Pro just didn’t offer enough features to justify me dropping a grand on it.
How much did the battery change cost
This comment made no sense as someone who started from the iPhone 11 then went to the 13 and finally stopped on the 15 pro max I can easily say the pro max has been the best by a landslide not only more features but better when it come to speed and all around everything and your going to sit here and say the iPhone 15 did not offer anything compared to a 12 okay buddy right 😭😭😭
I have an iPhone 12 since October ‘22 and it’s honestly great . The only thing I can complain about is battery life . However, I do think that regular iPhone 15’s are a better value if you’re willing to spend the extra amount . Thanks for the video.
Yea i have a 12 the battery sucks but honestly its a great device
Please hand me down the iPhone 12🙏
How long it takes to charge ? Also how long it last ?
@@zaza2604 maybe 1-2 charge but on my powerbank it charges faster and it lasts mybe for 1-3 hours

What version of IOS did you use?
My iPhone XR stopped charging randomly. I started researching the iPhone 12 and the 13 mini to see what I wanted to get. I took it to a shop to get an estimate to fix my XR, and it turns out the port just needed cleaned out. I really do love the old iPhones though. I just don’t see the point in upgrading before you have to. I think my wife is going to get the 12 upgrading from an SE. She’ll definitely be happy 😊
Still using mine since it was launched! Still loving it.
What about the battery ?
@@kayapasa317 I'm a heavy user so I charge it twice a day but on normal days it'll last me a day. Battery health at 82%. Just saying 😅
@@kayapasa317 with battery health of 82% and as a heavy user, battery seems fine to me. I charge it twice a day but on normal days it lasts me a day.
There's something about the base model 12 that no any other iPhone models can replicate. I bought the pro model around three years ago when the 13 just came out and I just ended up swapping it for a base model 12, in between the 11 and 13, there's something about the 12 that these two models lack yet at the same time, it has distinct features from both models that make it a whole lot better. I'm about to upgrade from an iPhone 12 to the 14 or 14 pro, and I assure you that if you're getting the 12 around this point of time, it's soooo worth it. I've been using the 12 for 2 years and a half now and I still love it to this day!

How about the 12 Pro Max? I needed the extra zoom capability but I need to know if it's worth it to go for 12 Pro Max
Imo the 13 series’s are the best iphones there are. A 13 pro would be better. (Where im at a 12 pro max is ~$450 and the 13 pro is ~$475 if you meed a bigger screen 12 pro max isnt a bad option

I am watching this video on iPhone SE after ordering iPhone 12 on Costco. Certainly pleased to learn my value for money calculation was correct. Less than half of the money to be paid for iPhone15 - Thnaks iPhone12.
I have a question, does the speaker call volume at max damage the phone speakers like it does if I have full volume music? Or is the speaker volume on a call a different volume level than the normal volume

I got the iPhone 12 and it’s the best ❤
Sent this video to my buddy who got an iPhone 12 a couple of years ago and he doesn't use any apps except Google His battery health is still 100%. I couldn't believe it. My six month old iPhone 14 is down to 99% battery health, but I have 53 apps. We checked under cellular usage the total talk time and I'm already double in six months what he used in two years
That's impressive.I have a 14 Pro Max and my battery health is 92%.

What's the battery life like? Can it last at least 5 hours at around 85% battery health if all I do is watch KZhead and scroll through Instagram and maybe 30 mins to 1 hour of gaming as well like Call of Duty or PUBG
Yes. It will definitely last 5 hours screen on time if the battery is 80 or above .
Just bought a 12 had 11 for 3 years great phone last of the 6 design architecture then they went back in time with the look of the 5 now iPhone 12 is like a blown up 5s lol, and the iphone 11 could handle 5g WiFi I’m not sure about 5g data

The 12 is still an awesome phone in 2024. The most underrated feature of the 12 series is the "feel" of the phone. Apple struck a PERFECT balance between performance and phone design. The physical depth, height, width and weight of the phones are PERFECT. I'll gladly sacrifice ProMotion for the feel of the phone any day. Samsung phones are a tad too slim, but they nail the weight, height and weight.
Have u ever felt promotion? Or a iphone 14 pro? I thought the same thing but pro motion and the feel of pro phones after the 11 all feel hella comfortable
@@D3great12 I've upgraded every years since the iPhone 12 Pro. I thought ProMotion would make up for the lack of feel of the phone, but it doesn't. The iPhone 15 Pro weights the same as the 12 Pro, but it's slimmer, thicker and lacks the physical SIM. I've gotten rid of my 13 Pro, 14 Pro and recently my 15 Pro. Nothing beats the feel of the 12 Pro. It's just perfect, even with the 60Hz screen, which on iPhones is buttery smooth. I was hoping the S24 would have better design, but it got slimmer and taller than the S23, unfortunately.

No, unless your device was earlier than 32GB, it is fine. The system alone, with updates, may consume 25GB
