In the early morning of October 14, iPhone 12 series was finally released. Like the previous revelations, the product strength of the iPhone 12 is indeed not particularly strong. But in any case, as the first 5G Apple mobile phone, the iPhone 12 series can still attract countless fruit fans who are preparing to switch phones. After the press conference of
, the prices and sales dates of all models of the iPhone 12 series have been announced. The friends who are ready to start are probably eager to try. This freshly-produced purchase guide should be what you need. Which version to buy
?
iPhone 12 series has four models, namely iPhone 12 mini, iPhone 12, iPhone 12 Pro and iPhone 12 Pro Max. Compared to the iPhone 11 series, Apple has added a new mini model this time.
It is worth mentioning that the four iPhone 12s are equipped with OLED screens, and the differences between them are more reflected in the camera and other aspects.
The iPhone 12 mini and iPhone 12 still have a rear dual-camera design. Compared with the iPhone 12 Pro series, there is one less telephoto lens. Moreover, the iPhone 12 Pro model also has a lidar sensor, which can play a greater role in application scenarios such as AR, and also improves the focusing speed in dark light scenes.
In addition, although Apple has not officially announced, the information registered by the regulatory authorities has leaked the battery information of four new iPhones, which are 2227mAh, 2775mAh, 2815mAh and 3687mAh. It is not difficult to see that the battery capacity gap between the four models is still relatively large, which will directly affect their battery life.
Simply put, if you are less sensitive to taking pictures and are more concerned about the price, then the iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 mini should be better choices. As for the Pro version, it is more suitable for people who are more concerned about mobile phone imaging capabilities. If you are sensitive to battery life, you may want to carefully consider the iPhone 12 mini.
It is important to note that the iPhone 12 mini is the only product among the four models that only supports single card. Dual card users should be careful when entering. How to buy the cheapest
?
Compared with the iPhone 11 series, the price of the iPhone 12 series has not changed much, but there is still room for operation in terms of how to save money.
price, the iPhone 12 series are:
iPhone 12 mini 64GB version 5499 yuan, 128GB version 5999 yuan, 256GB version 6799 yuan, iPhone 12 64GB version 6299 yuan, 128GB version 6799 yuan, 256GB version 7599 yuan.
iPhone 12 Pro 128GB version 8499 yuan, 256GB version 9299 yuan, 512GB version 11099 yuan, iPhone 12 Pro Max 128GB version 9299 yuan, 256GB version 10099 yuan, 512GB version 11899 yuan.
On the release date, iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 Pro will be available for pre-sale on October 16, iPhonThe e 12 mini and iPhone 12 Pro Max will have to wait until November 6 to start the pre-sale.
Due to factors such as taxes and exchange rates, the price of the iPhone 12 is still the National Bank>Hong Kong version>US version. For example, the iPhone 12 mini Hong Kong version starts at HK$5,999, which is approximately RMB 5,222. However, considering the warranty issue, in terms of the official price, the Hong Kong version is obviously more cost-effective. After all, it can directly enjoy the warranty provided by the Apple Store in the mainland.
However, it should be noted that there are several issues to consider when starting the Hong Kong version. First of all, whether it is entering Hong Kong or looking for a purchasing agent, it will increase the time cost, which is not suitable for small partners who want to start the first time. Secondly, we also need to consider issues such as Apple Care+ is not universal across regions. At present, the price difference of the Hong Kong version of the Bank of China has further narrowed, and it seems that there is no need for such tossing.
From a comprehensive perspective, if you want to get it in the first place, it is recommended to buy the National Bank version directly and place orders from Apple’s official website, Apple Store and JD Tmall. Judging from past experience, Apple’s official channels will have more advantages in terms of delivery and after-sales. It is recommended to give priority to the first sale. The 24-period interest-free installment policy can also be fully utilized.
Of course, if you want to wait for the party, you have the opportunity to get even greater discounts. First of all, there is less than a month before Double Eleven. If nothing else, the mainstream domestic e-commerce platforms will have some discounts more or less.
Second, starting from the second half of this year, Hainan Province will implement the outlying island tax exemption policy , and iPhones that are normally sold can be exempted from 13% of the tax. In other words, the version of the iPhone 12 series sold in Hainan is likely to be discounted by about 10% on the basis of the National Bank's pricing, and the starting price may be reduced to 4866 yuan.
It is worth mentioning that the "Joan version" iPhone 12 is the same as the ordinary national version in terms of warranty and other policies. On the whole, it is the most worthwhile iPhone 12 version for domestic users. However, legally speaking, the Joan iPhone 12 cannot be resold again, which limits the possibility of purchasing on behalf of others to a certain extent.
is not 100% cheaper to buy?
Frankly speaking, after watching this conference, I basically didn't feel any surprises. After all, the revelations before the conference were too accurate, leaving little suspense. But more fundamentally, the iPhone 12 series still lacks enough explosive points in product innovation. Compared with the iPhone 11 series, the performance improvement of the iPhone 12 is very limited. The main change lies in the addition of 5G support. But to be honest, even today in 2020, 5G networks are still not just needed for many people.
On the one hand, the cost of 5G is relatively high, and the price of 5G packages is enough to discourage many people. On the other hand, 5G has put a lot of pressure on power consumption. To make matters worse, the battery capacity of the iPhone 12 series has shrunk, which makes people worry about the battery life of the iPhone 12. Moreover, 5G still fails to bring killer applications, and it is still too difficult to convince most people to pay for it.
There is a saying that the iPhone 12 Pro's upgrade in the imaging field really shines and shows the powerful strength of Apple.
But to be honest, there are still 64GB of storage, castrated charging head headphones in the name of environmental protection, lack of high screen refresh, battery shrinkage, etc. I always feel that the iPhone 12 series still has many shortcomings, and Apple's sincerity is still not enough.
In the final purchase suggestion, I personally suggest that you still focus on your own needs. For example, if you think that the iPhone 11 you have is enough and you have no feelings for 5G, you might as well wait. But if you are sensitive to the signal and cannot tolerate the poor signal performance of the 2018/2019 iPhone, then the iPhone 12 should be a good choice. After the
iPhone 12 series is on sale, the Lei Technology team will place orders quickly and bring the latest experience report as soon as possible. If you are still hesitating whether to chop your hands, you might as well read our reviews at that time.
