Having recently looked at one of the previous models in the range 23-9-20, I now get my chance to test the latest version from Apple. Out of the box it seems to me to be rather chunky compared to other phones, this of course may help it to survive the odd drop, while the corners are shaved off the...

Apple's iPhone 12 is probably the one you should get. Save that $200 and put them towards some cool accessories.

New design is pretty and compact; OLED screen; finally! MagSafe is cool and has potential; Outstanding performance; One of the best cameras on a smartphone

No charger; no headphones in the box; 64 GB of storage is fine; but feels a bit stingy in current ecosystem; No telephoto lens; No ultra high refresh rate

It’s easy to dismiss the iPhone 12 as just 'more of the same', especially when you consider the new and compact iPhone 12 mini is also an option. However, 5G networks are rapidly rolling out across the globe, and the MagSafe addition could prove groundbreaking – these things, combined with an improved design and screen, mean the iPhone 12 will become more useful the longer you own it. It’s more expensive than last year’s iPhone 11, and it doesn’t come with a charger in the box; yes, there are environmental benefits to this, but you may need to factor buying a new charger into the cost of your new iPhone on top of the higher price.

Colorful OLED display; Future-proofed with 5G; MagSafe is intriguing;

Cameras are similar to last year; Battery life only okay; Hike in price over iPhone 11

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.

Fantastic new design reminiscent of the iPhone 5; Exceptional performance; Very reliable cameras;

Screen lacks some of the benefits you’ll find elsewhere; If the notch annoyed you before, it’ll annoy you again;

The combination of an updated design, the Super Retina XDR OLED display, improvements to the camera and great performance, the iPhone 12 is the iPhone that most people should buy this year.

Gorgeous industrial design; Super Retina XDR display; Camera improvements;

No charger; No high refresh rate display; More expensive;

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.

Of course, Apple's smartphones always have a unique selling point just by coming from Apple. But sti...

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;

PWM flickering; average speakers; limited storage capacity for this price; limited NFC usability; display only has 60 Hz; no 5G mmWave in Europe;

Good service good price

I m very happy

Good battery life.
