Apple recently launched their new iPhone 12 range of smartphones and now we have a comparison of the iPhone 12 Pro vs iPhone 11 Pro.
If you already own an iPhone 11 Pro and you are wondering whether you should upgrade to the new iPhone 12 Pro, we have a great video from Zollotech which should help you decide.
Design and Display
As we can see from the video, the two handsets look very similar side by side, although the new iPhone 12 Pro does come with a range of upgrades over the previous model. The iPhone 12 Pro features a new flat-edge design reminiscent of the iPhone 4 and 5, which gives it a more modern and sleek appearance. The display on the iPhone 12 Pro is also slightly improved with a Super Retina XDR display that offers better brightness and contrast compared to the iPhone 11 Pro.
Performance and Features
The iPhone 12 Pro is powered by Apple’s latest A14 Bionic processor, which is the first chip in the smartphone industry built on a 5-nanometer process. This makes the iPhone 12 Pro significantly faster and more efficient than the iPhone 11 Pro, which uses the A13 Bionic chip. The A14 Bionic chip also enhances the phone’s machine learning capabilities, enabling new features and improving existing ones.
One of the most notable upgrades in the iPhone 12 Pro is the inclusion of 5G connectivity. This allows for faster internet speeds and improved performance in areas with 5G coverage. However, the availability of 5G networks varies by region, and in some areas, it may not yet be widely supported. This is an important consideration for users deciding whether to upgrade.
The camera system on the iPhone 12 Pro has also seen significant improvements. It includes a new LiDAR scanner, which enhances augmented reality (AR) experiences and improves autofocus in low-light conditions. The iPhone 12 Pro’s camera system also features improved Night mode, Deep Fusion, and Smart HDR 3, which collectively enhance photo and video quality.
Another new feature in the iPhone 12 Pro is MagSafe, a system of magnets built into the back of the phone that allows for easy attachment of accessories such as cases, wallets, and wireless chargers. This adds a new level of convenience and customization for users.
Whether or not it is worth upgrading from the iPhone 11 Pro to the iPhone 12 Pro remains to be seen. Personally, I decided to keep my iPhone 11 Pro Max and wait until next year to see if it is worth upgrading. If 5G was more widely supported in the UK, then I would have probably considered the new model.
The iPhone 12 Pro offers several notable upgrades over the iPhone 11 Pro, including a new design, improved display, faster processor, 5G connectivity, enhanced camera system, and MagSafe. However, the decision to upgrade will depend on individual needs and whether the new features are compelling enough to justify the cost. For some users, especially those in areas with limited 5G coverage, it may be worth waiting for the next generation of iPhones.
