Apple iPhone 12 256GB - Red MGJJ3X/A review
The main takeaway from my time with iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 mini is that across the board, the average iPhone user likely won't need the features that the iPhone 12 Pro offer
Pros:
- Features a great-looking OLED screen
- Redesign is great
- Specs are very similar to the iPhone 12 Pro
Cons:
- It's more expensive than the iPhone 11 was at launch
- No telephoto lens
- Some might not be fond of the redesign

Apple iPhone 12 (256GB, Black) AU - Pristine review
The iPhone 12 is a great all-around device and a good middle-ground between the cheaper iPhone 12 Mini and SE and the more expensive iPhone 12 Pro and 12 Pro Max. If you’re looking at the iPhone 12 series, the middle of the road iPhone 12 should be the one to get for most people.
Pros:
- The new design and colours are nice (especially the blue), Great camera and can shoot Dolby Vision video (at 30fps), Good battery life with long standby time, A14 Bionic offers quick performance, Wireless charging and fast charge support, The OLED screen looks great and is the same as the iPhone 12...
Cons:
- iOS 14 needs a bit more work, More expensive than the previous models, The MagSafe ecosystem is cool and has potential but not great now

iPhone 12 Review
The iPhone 12 truly is a notable jump for Apple’s mainline phone and it now feels almost as Pro as the actual Pro model. For £799/$799, this is a seriously complete device.
Pros:
- Fantastic new design reminiscent of the iPhone 5, Exceptional performance, Very reliable cameras
Cons:
- Screen lacks some of the benefits you’ll find elsewhere, If the notch annoyed you before, it’ll annoy you again

Apple iPhone 12 (256GB, Black) AU - Pristine review
Even without the third camera, there’s a lot to like about the iPhone 12, which offers some handy little improvements on the iPhone 11, a phone that stays in the 2020 Apple line-up. The two cameras have been tightened up and feel better than last time, and the whole phone is faster overall.
Pros:
- New design language makes for an easy phone to grip, Flat edges mean it can stand up on surfaces, Lighter aluminium design feels great in the hands, Better OLED screen than previous iPhone 11 or iPhone XR, Durability improvements to the screen, Great camera with excellent video, Solid performance,...
Cons:
- Dual camera combination may not be as useful as the triple of the 12 Pro, No support for Apple's RAW format in the future, even though the hardware is similar, Not the best battery, with similar battery concerns exhibited in the iPhone 12 Pro

New old look. The iPhone 12 is more angular than its predecessor and finally features 5G and an OLDED display. It is a lot lighter and slimmer than last year's model. Find out whether Apple has once again landed a big hit in our review.
Pros:
- very accurate OLED display, case has good workmanship, camera takes sharp photos, good performance, long runtimes, hardly any heat development, precise localisation, wide range of accessories, covers a lot of LTE and 5G frequencies
Cons:
- PWM flickering, average speakers, limited storage capacity for this price, limited NFC usability, display only has 60 Hz, no 5G mmWave in Europe
