Iphone 12
I like iphone 12
iPhone 11 Pro Max
Iphone 12 sure
11 pro max, no brainer 🔥
It’s weird to see people wanting the square edges because it’s a “new” design. I guess my old iphone 5 was way ahead of its time lol
The flat sides are more difficult to hold when I’m typing in bed. The round sides give a more comfortable grab. Also the cases are much easier to take off from the 11 pro max.
iphone 4 here. Still have it too.
Iphone 4 lol
iphone SE from 2016, square edges as well! xD
@@Mandon97 what hold? I dont ever hold my phone without the case one mistake and I gotta upgrade nah 😂😂😂
I had the same question 2 months ago, I bought the 11 pro Max for the 3 cameras, battery life, and resolution of the screen
I did to too 2 years ago nad nów i switched it to iPhone 12 :p
You made the right choice, battery is an insane advantage I’d sacrifice other features for

@@abby5008 I guess 1.5 h hour less battery life but Big comfort in using that much smaller thing :D u wont see any faster aplication run but u sometimes feel u Have worse camera when u want to zoom
This is how a review should be covering all the tests great work
I wish we could get nick into the million subs! Show the others like Lew, mkbhd. This boy is for real!!!👊
You always know the review am craving for, nice one Nick.
dUHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Two months ago I was about to get one of the 12 series models and was fitting the 12 with my budget. With time I realised 11PM is super premium compared to basic 12, despite 12 having that 5G feature.
So which did you get?
@@BaddyK The 11 pro max. One year since I got it. Probably won’t upgrade until 15/16 series
Which can i buy now? 12 or 11 pro max

I'm always coming back here for my reviews. You keep it very interesting. I personally think it's more practical for me to use the Iphone 11 pro max just because it has a bigger screen which I like because I am currently using about a 5.8 inches screen and its kinda small for my big hands. Also I usually do have to zoom in for pictures which that would be great instead of the 12 as it zooms in better. Also the software updates I don't really care about as to me switching from the phone I'm currently using it will be way faster.
In reality can’t go wrong with either one! Hope you got the phone you wanted ;D
The exact video I had been waiting for, thanks.
Thanks for the review.. it was very helpful. ❤️
It was an easy choice for me, iPhone 11 Pro Max 512GB with stainless steel round edges instead of the aluminium square edges, small screen of the 12 even though the 12 costs less.
Hi Nick. I’m Alfredo Villanueva and I was considering to buy an iPhone 11 Pro Max but I’m still saving some money. I choose to get this phone instead of the 12 Pro Max because the rounded edges and the larger battery make it a lot better and comfortable for me to handle. Thank you for the videos!

@@tris999x yo why tf did you call him that
That's how comparo works. Thanks Nick. More power 😊 Support from Manila
Great video! Thanks for the in-depth comparison.
Thanks Nick I was waiting for this! As an iPhone 12 user I wasn’t sure if I wanted to change my mind and buying the 11 pro max because of the bigger screen and battery but finally keep my 12 for the reasons you talked about 🔥🔥🔥
Thank you for creating such content 😊🙏🏻💙💙 you are very well rounded and sometimes also show your face which is refreshing 👍🏻👍🏻
Nick Great Comparison of both devices. I like the two of them also like the Color. Always enjoy.Deb 💯👌✌
Upgrade from 6, thanks for this great comparison. I picked 11PM
Thank you , I choose 11 Pro max for the bigger Display and for the extra juice of screen time
great as always nick
Your reviews are always on point, exactly what i wanted
I’m returning my 12 mini and getting an 11 pro max in midnight green. For media consumption the bigger screen is the way to go.
1:15 Square edges, the more modern feel. Like the iPhone 4? 😃
Every phone i see today have curve edges, like other brands. Square edged iphone is definitely retro but iphone 12 feels like modern cuz of todays designs 😂😂😂
Battery power is so underrated, IPhone CPUs are crazy quick that despite being 1 year old there’s no lag. The thing that impacts me the most is the fact I can have the 11 on for TWO days without needing to charge…not once have I had to turn it off because I’m running out of battery. Also the 11 is a real tough phone, I have not cracked it despite a few drops.
Wow I was thinking of getting it I think I’d stick to your advice
But how sure are you about the battery
Watching this now because I will be getting 12 in a week time and I was watching to make sure I pick the right choice. Thanks Nick
which did you choose and why? trying to decide a gift for my girl. first iPhone for her
@@christopherlochan3362 get her the 11 pro max, girls love em big phones to flex
How's the 12?
I had the 11pm for over a year but it wasn’t practical for me. It got too big I couldn’t text one handed and it didn’t fit in my pockets. I had a baby and found it hard to text when holding her so I traded it in and got the 12. I love it so small I can put it in my pocket no problem. I do miss the battery on the 11 tho. I’m a light user and would get 2-3 days out of 11pm now I get about a day to two days with 12 usually a day and a half is the average.
My most wanted comparison
ended up getting the 11 pro max, and i dont regret it. This phone is truly THE BEST iphone ever made after the 13 pro max. Amazing battery easily lasts me a daily and heavy use and 4G. No issues with the reception either( ive seen many people saying their service is weak) and tbh the signal is better than my older iphone 7. I've tried the lte while being on vacation where the signal was supposed to be weak and it was still fast enough. One tip, get yourself a 20w anker charger/charging cable they're way more durable than apple products
I got the 12 navy blue. loving the color
Thank you for this great comparison vid.
I just traded in my 11 pro just because in the suburbs the reception is way worse than it is in the city. Also had fewer dropped calls
Which phone did you get and how's the reception on that phone?
I’ve switched to the 12 Pro max. The reception is great! I get fast speeds almost everywhere I go and I’ve had yet to drop a call or have my FaceTime fail on me which was an everyday thing with the 11 pro.
I just bought 11 Pro Max 2 week ago and I must say no problems like that.. maybe you dropped your phone one time too much :D
Looool I just come here to listen nick imitating peoples voices loool sounds so funny
Hahah I swear you started sounding nerdy than suddenly battabing battaboom your became my favourite reviewer with “don’t play with me “ hahaha love it already SUBBED.
about the storage, even casual players, they should consider that a simple game occupies, like, 5gb of storage nowadays haha (an exaggeration, of course, but we're closer and closer to that). I simply don't film videos, and still, a large amount of storage is occupied just with Genshin Impact, Summoners War and Fortnite (about 27 gb).
Im going with the 11ProMax it’s more premium and bigger size the LTE don’t bother me because I have service dang near every where I go
Hey nick could you make a vid on iPhone 11 pro vs Samsung s10
I got iPhone 12 but I wanted to buy the 11 pro max I didn’t find it so I got 12 but now am thinking about trying to reswap the 12 to 11 pro max guy what do you think? Please advise me
Superb video. Love 😘 from Sri Lanka 🇱🇰
same 🇱🇰
Same🌚
I'm torn about which one of these two I should buy but the design of my phones is a plus for me so I like round edges,11 pro max it is....
Wise choice! I bought the 12 last year but decided to swap it to the 11 pro max since the 12 was too small for me. It has longer battery too which held almost a day. 😅
@@vidsforfun5155 more convinced now 🤣 thank you, I'm taking it next month 🤞🏼
I use to have that round edge 11pro so I recently purchased the 11pro max and my storage 256 gb. Also my sister has had the 11 max and she enjoys it. No issues great phone 📱.
How about the battery life a day?
@@kawaiiyokaii157 the battery is alright, it depends on what you do with your phone and how long you’re on it but it definitely last the whole day
Have anyone noticed that your iphone 11 lock sound is quiet sometime and sometime louder😕
if I were to buy one I'd probably choose the 12 (or the 12 pro they are the same size anyways) honestly just because it has 5G, I'm the type of person that would use a phone until it gets painfully slow or it completely breaks so I would just get one that is futureproof, also they are hella expensive.
I watched that video and i saw one minhyuk hii
Ok
The choice for me was simple. I bought the 12 as my first iPhone because of the size. It fits better in my palm compared to the 11 pro max.
Same bro got my first iphone 12 128 gb and ofcourse size matters alot.
Bra Adu na me nso er? 🤣
@@archazeem6499 i want to buy the 12. i am a android user and the samsung s10e now. Only got the ipod toch, 6 years ago. Is it worth the money? Because it gonna hurt more to my wallet when i buy a iphone.
@@bjorns1158 if you have apple ecosystem then go for it like i have an ipad pro and im also a gammer and have money in mobile apps so security is a must. If these things dont bother you then go for android. also i like the size of it ,fits in the pocket and hand better. Its expensive but not overpriced. Also its resale value is better than android so you can replace it if you dont like the experience. Its a win win in the end. Peace 🤞🏻💙
@@archazeem6499 true true true. I dont like to have money in apps and i am using my phone almost for everything so that is not a problem. Whats your opinion should i buy a 11 pro or a 12?
the iPhone 12's light weight is such a plus that it makes me ok to sacrifice the 11 pro/11 pro max's better battery life
Both are great 😍😍 But I would say get the 12 if you want to use it for a longer period
If it wasn’t for 5 g then I’d go with the 11 pro max definitely. Which after I got it the 5G isn’t all that as of right now but maybe it will just get faster.
The iPhone 5 and iPhone SE had the square edges and the phones were premium ! I like the smaller size phones .
Should I buy the iPhone 11 Pro or max for the apple smart battery or get an iPhone 12 Pro
I keep finding the keyboard infuriating sometimes to use on my XR. So I'm wondering if a bigger or smaller display would help with my typing? I haven't been able to test any of the newer iPhones thanks to lockdown.
I find it slightly frustrating on the XR as well but I feel as if the keyboard on a Google Pixel is a lot better than the iPhones 👍
@@qk2896 That's interesting, I've tried other keyboards on the iPhone but they are the same. Still probably not enough to make me get a Pixel.
@@marksapollo I'd agree, it's better but it's not enough to switch to a Google Pixel with its overall weak offering.
I have the same problem with my XR as well. Having a bigger display will definitely make typing easier. I noticed how much easier it is to type on my mom’s 11 Pro Max.
@@darknightmike10yearsago Yeah this year I’ll have to bite the bullet. I hate the idea of an even bigger phone.. but no point having a smart phone of you aren’t able to use its smart features cause you can’t type on it. I used to type fine on my 6S back in the day but due to its resolution, I used zoom mode and the keyboard keys were nice and big and spaced out. I would get an SE but I want those new cameras, I’ll look at the 14 Max once it’s launched.
I went with the iPhone 12 even though i really considered the 11 Pro Max but the A14 and the 5G for future proofing and the square sides got me.
would you say its a pretty small phone because i have large hands and i cant decide
No it doesn’t feel small at it. It feels just right i personally wouldn’t want a phone any bigger than this.
Same reason as mine 👍
Longevity and better main camera and newer design and MagSafe- 12 11 pro max for telephoto, big screen and battery life. Best of last year or midrange of this year
Isn’t the iPhone 11 Pro Max still better than like 95% of androids this year tho?
@@apolloskywalker633 definitely. High end Android’s cameras are probably better from this year but I wouldn’t prioritise that over iOS and all the other features of iPhone. The camera is still amazing. Plus, snaps will look better on iPhone anyway.
could you compare the iphone 13 and 12 pro,please🙏🏻
I’m coming from A iPhone 6s+ So my hands are used to that Would The iPhone 11 Pro Max feel the same to me in the hand ??! Will the notch on the bigger display bother me less??!
Its familiar compared to 6s but the weight will annoy you since its significantly heavy. The notch just fades away once you use it for a while
Still running 11 pro max since launch at 100% battery still 💪💪💪
if you have 11 pro max now is it okay to you to get the 12 and then sell 11promax? or it's better to get the 12 pro?
@@kevinman8117 I bought iphone 12 and I returned it. It was too small for me and felt cheap. It wasnt heavy like the 11 pro max. Not use to the aluminum sides. I need the amazing battery so sticking with the 11 pro max til it dies lol
@@kevinman8117 I would not get the 12 Pro. Your phone is probably the best in many ways.
I agree I would personal pick the 12 or the 11 pro Max for the OVERALL lasting image, support, and performance
but most people wouldnt keep a phone for 5 years so would support really matter? doesnt feel like it
@@g4vftp yes because keeping your phone updated no matter how long you have it is important
@@jamelporter6974 so right here we're just talking about 1 year difference. I wanna get a new phone and im between a 11PM and 12 but i just want it for 2 years till i get the 2 years from now pro max(hopefully notchless) and the extra battery really feels like a big +..even the camera is just as great as the 12 (besides no night mode on the selfie). Didnt pick yet but i guess itll all go down to storage
@gg4v either or is fine I said I would go for the 12 pro max personally or go for 11 pro max for OVERALL lasting, support, and performance
@@jamelporter6974 oh my bad I thought you meant the simple 12
How much does iPhone 12 and iPhone 11 pro also the iPhone 11 cost now?
Going for the iPhone 12, I travel a lot and 5g will be great for video calls for meetings around the world.
We have 128 GB storage in my iPhone SE, 64 GB in my iPhone 12. Honestly, the main issue is backup. Though we have 64+128 GB storage, we don’t yet have an iCloud subscription yet, so we use free cloud space and that is not more than 64G, ultimately iCloud storage space (or google cloud) is definitely the most important thing we need.
Who’s we?
@@TennySosaTv 🤣🤣🤣
Thanks nick
I think iPhone 12 is the better choice. There aren’t all the compromises there were for example between the X and the Xr
b-shit. i have them both new and the 11 pro max it's a pleasure to use, screen and battery life are from a different level
man i prefer big phones lol. I wanted the 11 pro max but they discontinued it over here in Taiwan where I live. But this review really pushing me to the 12 Dx

In 2019 to be honest I got crazy for an iPhone 11 Pro Max 🤩🤪 but sadly I couldn’t buy it because I was using Android at that it was too late but last year’s iPhone 12 and 12 Pro Max I didn’t get crazy for a 12 I don’t know why 😒🤭😑 but I also like it though
You're that Ackerman from AOT🔥
Ong this is exactly the video i need
You buy it from amazon?
watching from iphone 12. that answers it. been using a huawei p30 pro, and seldom use the telephoto camera. dont get me wrong, i like the night mode on the huawei phone. and its battery will blow both of these phones out of the water. just decided to switch to ios so i could experience it, the video capability and the os updates that could run for at least 5 years. bigger phones are heavier and requires more space too.
Do they have headphone input?

i too also have 8+…im very tempting towards 12 in purple one, however if i can get 12 pro used with prize of brand new 12, i’ll just get 12 pro instead
12
They are basically the same phone minus 1 camera and that’s it. If I do upgrade I’ll just upgrade for the design which in my opinion isn’t worth it. I have an 11 pro max and the 12 pro max, isn’t that much of an improvement and worth the price. I’ll probably just drop the max line the next time I upgrade.
I would like to get the Phone 12 because it would just be a upgrade then the Phone 11 promax even know its smaller because it really does not matter about the size of the phone it Mather about the upgrade so your not spending your money on the same thing but really over the size or the color. So I really wan to get the Phone 12 for the new updates but I would be going from the Phone 11 promax to the iPhone 12. All I want the iPhone 12 for its new updates color and its a bit smaller.
Can you guys choose for me Iphone 11 pro max or iphone 12?? I like 12 design but I need 512gb phone and larger screen atleast 6'4 but I think because "12" it gets more new stuff And im actually okay with 256gb storage too
If you like using your phone with 1 hand a lot, 12 might be the better buy. I also noticed the 12 has a very noticeable difference in weight, it feels much lighter. But, if you are a heavy user. The 11 surely gives you better battery life. It really is a difficult choice, I guess preference would be key to your choice. I wouldn’t worry much about speed, the 11 is amazingly fast. I’m actually trying to decide for myself lol, I think I’m leaning more on the 12… but still unsure.
I have the possibilities of changing my iPhone 11 Pro Max 64Gb for an iPhone 12 Normal 64Gb or 128gb. Would you recommend the change? It will be a pair exchange.
No i think u should upgrade it to 12 pro max. If u have a budget or just wait.
I have the 11 pro max but I wish the 12 was a little bit bigger cause my hands are big
Where can I buy iPhone 11 Pro Max. with the same price for both iPhone 11 Pro Max and 12.. please help
Same confusion.
I’ve posted this on another video. I had the regular 11 pro and the 12 now for 6 months each. The 12 has a much weaker battery, much worse. The 12 has a better screen with less prone to scratch glass, the 12 is more durable and the flat design makes the screen seem better on the 12. The processing speed, cameras and video don’t seem to be too much different at all.
thanks for this, really helped make up my mind! def going for the 11 pro now
This makes all the difference, pretty much every feature is only slightly better or pretty much the same. But man the battery, having it work for 2 days without a fear to charge is a game changer

i have them both new, 100% battery. 11ProMax it's a better phone but older. flip a coin
I have the 12 upgraded from 8+ and the battery is way better but IMO there’s nothing really special about it
Same
😂 I know you're being honest
Same.
that's literally the question I was asking myself how did you know 😭😭
do they use the same size SIM card?
Yup, I think all iPhones have used the same size SIM card as far as I can remember. Nano
A Pro will always be a Pro
Exactly
💯
Bruh u forgot abt apple pro raw format on the pro phones 🙄 that's a big deal especially for ppl who take a lot of photos
Are you Lester Crest?
i have them both, while iphone 12 it's better looking and little faster, iphone 11 pro max it's a power house. both my devices are 100% battery health
