This year is the big upgrade year for the Apple iPhone. Be left in absolutely no doubt that this is a serious upgrade for pretty much everyone, except iPhone 11 Pro users who can still perhaps treat this as a not-so-urgent upgrade.
The iPhone 12 Pro is a premium smartphone, complete with medical-grade stainless steel frame, an upgraded LiDAR sensor and the ability to record [email protected] Dolby Vision HDR video, but with so many similarities to the standard iPhone 12, it's not a cut-and-dry recommendation.
Premium build; Bigger display than last year; [email protected] Dolby Vision video support;
Very similar to iPhone 12; Expensive; Standard 60Hz refresh rate;
An iPhone for the few and not the many, the 12 Pro is for serious photographic fiddlers and AR experimenters
Beautiful boxy design; Intelligent camera improvements; 5G connectivity; MagSafe innovation potential; Faithful colour reproduction
Display refresh rate only 60Hz; Mixed battery life; No USB-C; No earphones or charging plug
The iPhone 12 Pro captures images with bags of impact and plenty of detail, even in low light. Any photographer who uses it is bound to experience one of those head-scratching moments when the phone gets a better shot than their larger-sensor camera.
Produced attractive images with impact; Easy to use; Great wide-angle capability
Limited control in the native camera app; High price; The lenses are unprotected
If you're a serious creative who doesn't want a huge phone, the iPhone 12 Pro packs superior imaging and video capability into a reasonably sized, beautifully designed body.
Excellent night photo capabilities; Optical zoom camera; iOS has the best third-party photo apps; Beautiful design; Solid battery life
Technically only 2x optical zoom camera; AT&T and Verizon 5G underwhelms; Charging and power adapter situation is confusing
This is a great phone that’s easy to recommend. It takes the great 11 Pro, tweaks it and adds in a glorious new design that takes things to the next level. It’s a bit of a shame that the Pro Max has the potential for an even better camera though, and a high refresh rate screen would have been nice. Maybe next year.
A very welcome redesign; Reliable cameras in all situations; Accurate HDR display; Great size;
High refresh rate screen feels sorely missed on the Pro model; Pro Max bags the bigger camera upgrades;
You must have telephoto. If you're choosing between the iPhone 12 and 12 Pro, the addition of a telephoto lens is what will likely sell you on the extra money. Lidar and a stainless steel frame are bonuses, but likely not worth the extra cash. You love the Pro's matte glass back.
Superb performance, Consistently good photo and video quality, Improved industrial design
Worse battery life than iPhone 11 Pro
Let’s cut to the chase in this review. The new iPhone 12 Pro is an absolute joy to hold and use. The OLED display is stunning for consuming media on – you’ll notice it immediately if you’re moving up from a non-OLED Model, as I was. The cameras… well, we’ll get to that.
Beautiful design; stunning display; and high-quality cameras.
You already have an iPhone 11 Pro?
The new iPhone 12 Pro sweeps the floor with the competition, and has the best camera we've seen so far.
The best performance on the market, visibly better picture and video quality, fast 5G, more solid than before and a very bright screen. Clever magnetic solution.
Charger is extra equipment. Expensive with a lot of storage.
Just plain gorgeous design, especially in Pacific Blue; triple-lens camera is up there with other flagships, especially with Night Portraits; powerful performance; fast 5G speeds (where you can find them)
Apple should've packed the same Pro Max camera specs in the smaller Pro for those of us who do not want gigantic phones
