iPhone 12 range

Is iPhone 12 still worth buying? 

The new iPhone launch is just under two weeks away, meaning people will either upgrade to the latest models or opt for an older iPhone. 

Once the new iPhone launches, older models drop in value, known as depreciation, so you could bag an older iPhone for much less! 

If you’re looking for an iPhone to invest in with great affordability and functionality, the iPhone 12 range is a great option.

When was the iPhone 12 released?

The iPhone 12 launched in October 2020, making it nearly two years old! It was revealed a little later than Apple’s previous iPhone schedule due to the coronavirus pandemic.

The iPhone 12 range had a staggered release. The iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 Pro went on sale on October 23rd 2020 and the iPhone 12 Mini and iPhone 12 Pro Max were available to buy from November 13th 2020.


iPhone 12

The iPhone 12 has a complete redesign compared to its predecessors. However, it still includes the camera bump, meaning it won’t lie completely flat. It also has smooth flat edges and is thinner compared to the iPhone 11.

If you’re looking for a decent-sized screen to watch high-quality videos, you’ll be impressed with the 6.1-inch Super Retina XDR display. It has a ceramic shield cover for improved durability, too. 

Plus, capture memories in great quality with the impressive iPhone 12 camera! It has a dual camera system, including a 12MP wide and 12MP ultra-wide camera. 

The main camera also features a 7-element lens for a 27% improvement in Night Mode performance. That’s not all! Night Mode has been expanded to all cameras, including the selfie camera. 

Another great feature of the iPhone 12 includes MagSafe wireless charging, which is convenient for when you’re on the move! This model also has 5G capabilities and runs on Apple’s A14 Bionic chip.

iPhone 12 Mini

If you’re looking for a small and lightweight device, perfectly sized to fit into your pocket, then the iPhone 12 Mini is a great contender! 

Weighing at just 4.7 ounces, even though the iPhone 12 Mini is much smaller than the other iPhone 12 models, it’s still packed full of incredible features. It’s safe to say it doesn’t compromise on quality! 

Firstly, it has a premium design and a stunning 5.4-inch Super Retina XDR display. It has aluminium edges and a ceramic shield. It also has a fast A14 Bionic chipset, 5G connectivity and it supports MagSafe wireless charging. 

In terms of camera, it has a 12MP wide-angle and a 12MP ultra-wide camera. Both cameras include night mode and 4K video recording abilities. For example, you’ll be able to record 24, 30 or 60 frames per second and access full HD recording too. 

The iPhone 12 Mini also comes in an array of colours to choose from, including Purple, White, Black, Blue, Green and Product Red. 

If you want a much smaller device with up-to-date features, then the iPhone 12 Mini is the iPhone you should be upgrading to!

iPhone 12 Pro

The iPhone 12 Pro is packed full of advanced features and we wouldn’t expect anything less from a Pro model. 

It has a 6.1-inch Super Retina XDR OLED display, so you’re getting one of the best screens around and can even record in Dolby Vision 4K. 

For design, it has flat sides and sharp 90-degree edges. It has a ceramic shield on the front of the phone, which replaces the glass from the iPhone 11. 

If you choose the iPhone 12 Pro, you’ll also get 5G connectivity, MagSafe charging and it’s powered by the A14 Bionic chip. This model has three storage options, including 128GB, 256GB and 512GB. 

The iPhone 12 Pro comes in different colours than the iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 Mini, including Graphite, Silver, Gold and Pacific Blue.

Plus, you’ll get not two but three cameras! The triple camera system includes wide, ultra-wide cameras and a telephoto 2x zoom lens. The pro models also come with a LiDAR scanner, which makes it clearer for the camera to know what it’s looking at.

At the time of launch in 2020, the iPhone 12 Pro Max was the biggest model Apple had made. 

If you’re looking for a large design, then the iPhone 12 Pro Max fits the criteria. It has a 6.7-inch Super Retina XDR OLED Display, which offers Wide Color and True Tone.

The colour options are also the same as the iPhone 12 Pro. Plus, it’s got a water and dust resistance rating of IP68, which means it can be submerged in 6 metres of water for up to 30 minutes. The iPhone 12 Pro Max also supports 5G and has an A14 chip. 

Now, the camera is the impressive part! It has a triple camera, including a seven-element wide camera and a 47% larger sensor for an 87% low-light improvement. Plus, the same ultra-wide camera and a telephoto lens that has 5x optical zoom. 

It also supports sensor-shift optical image stabilisation – needless to say, the iPhone 12 Pro Max has everything you want from a top-quality camera.
