This year's new iPhone arrived late. It was officially unveiled at Apple's autumn conference in mid-October, and it was already at the end of October when it was officially released. At 9 o'clock in the morning on October 23, I received the new iPhone 12 Pro delivered by SF Express on time.
This year’s iPhone 12 series has caused a lot of controversy. Some people think that Apple has lost its leading position in the past under the attack of the Android camp represented by Huawei and Samsung. It has been slammed in many new technologies, and some people criticized Apple. The abolition of chargers and headsets is "fake environmental protection and make money."
After using the iPhone 12 Pro for 8 days, I can still say that this is the absolute flagship phone of this year from many aspects. The following 10 user experience summarized below may be hesitant and hesitant about whether to place an order. You have a reference.
iPhone’s sleek shape design has been in use for 6 years, and many people have already suffered from aesthetic fatigue. One of the biggest changes in the iPhone 12 series this year is the use of a new design language. The design of the right-angle frame is considered by many to be a “tribute” to the iPhone 4 10 years ago. In fact, this time the iPhone's facelift is consistent with the design style of the iPad series, and it also completes the unification of the Apple family's design language. I am accustomed to the curved frame of the iPhone. When I first got the iPhone 12 Pro, the first feeling I felt was that it was a little handy. The one-handed grip is not as smooth as the previous generations of mobile phones. The body is lighter and thinner, but when using the mobile phone Shi also subconsciously became more careful. After all, the stainless steel frame and glass back panel feel so "slip" that it is easy to accidentally fall to the ground.
"Technology is based on changing colors", this is a trick used to ridicule the iPhone when it comes to new phones. Yes, this year the new iPhone still plays the trick of new color matching. The blue of the iPhone 12 was on the top of the Weibo hot search list on the day of its release. This blue makes people love and hate it. Many people criticize it as the same blue of the trash can. The dark night green of the iPhone 11 Pro last year is eye-catching. This year, the new deep sea blue of the iPhone 12 Pro still has a perfect texture, but it lacks some surprises. At first glance, it is a bit fresh, but it doesn't look good. In contrast, I think the classic silver and white color scheme is the best choice this year. The screen panel of the
super ceramic crystal is one of the surprises this time, and it has hardly been mentioned in the previous revelations. According to Apple, this is a new nanometer glass material jointly developed by them and Corning, which claims to quadruple the drop resistance of mobile phones. Some video bloggers have tested and found that this new super-ceramic panel can resist up to 6 Mohs hardness scratches without leaving any scratches. For daily use, it can resist most metals and stones. The 7-level hardness only leaves shallow scratches and does not affect the normal viewing of the screen. This result seems to mean that you don’t need to put a film on your new mobile phone anymore. For the mobile phone streak party, it’s a big hit. But it is worth noting that the glass panel on the back is very fragile, so it is recommended that you still need a mobile phone case. The
iPhone 12 series may be the last 5G mobile phone to be launched. Tim Cook should say sorry to all fans at the press conference, "I'm sorry, we are late." In the 5G layout, the iPhone has indeed been used by many domestic mobile phones. It was far behind. Fortunately, it settled with Qualcomm. This time all iPhone 12 series use 5G, and support independent networking and non-independent networking. It also supports up to 17 5G frequency bands. In addition, the iPhone 12 is sold in the United States. It also supports 5G millimeter wave, which is not too embarrassing, and even some catch up. The much criticized iPhone signal problem has also been resolved with the settlement with Qualcomm. The signal of the iPhone 12 Pro has indeed been greatly improved, but it is not as big as everyone expected.
5G has brought faster Internet speed, but in the current use scenario, it is just that downloading software is faster and watching videos is smoother. Besides, in my several days of use, I have not noticed 4G has too many differences. In most areas of Beijing, 5G signal coverage is basically achieved, but it changes back to 4G within a second after entering the room. Interestingly, ifYou are using China Unicom. Even if the 5G package is not activated, if you are still using the 4G package, the 5G logo will be displayed in the signal bar of the iPhone 12, and the network speed will be faster than the original 4G, is that right? It is a kind of "universal wool".
is a disastrous experience, the iPhone 12 Pro is too power-hungry. The battery capacity has shrunk, the screen has been upgraded, coupled with the support for 5G, the battery life of the iPhone 12 Pro is overturned. In the past few days of use, I can obviously feel that the power consumption is very fast. It turns out that the iPhone 11 Pro can be charged once a day, and by 12, it will start at least twice a day. Fortunately, fast charging has become popular and you have developed the habit of charging at hand. At the same time, Apple has optimized 5G in the system. You can choose the automatic 5G mode, that is, switch to 4G under small data volume to avoid 5G consumption. The shortcomings of TV universities achieve the purpose of saving electricity.
This time Apple proudly launched MagSafe accessories at the press conference. Magnetic charging is actually not a new thing. As early as the previous generations of MacBook, Apple has been equipped with a magnetic charging design for notebook computers. This was abandoned. This year, Apple brought new and old wine bottles to them. What makes people feel useful is that the MagSafe wireless charging is finally 15W, which is twice as fast as before. But look at other mobile phones next door, 40W wireless charging is not new. In the MagSafe usage scene, I can imagine that the more convenient one is the magnetic power bank. You don’t need to drag a long cable to connect to the power bank in the future. You can suck it on the back cover and charge it without affecting the normal use of the phone.
This year’s iPhone 12 series has limited camera improvements. Although Apple spent a lot of space and time to introduce it at the press conference, in actual use, compared to the iPhone 11 Pro, this year’s new phone is not too Big breakthrough. Compared with the horrible parameters of the next-door brand which is 100 million pixels and 100x zoom, the iPhone 12 Pro's three-camera system is only 12 million pixels and 4x optical zoom, which is very shabby in comparison. However, relying on the powerful A14 processor and precise image algorithm of the iPhone 12, the iPhone’s camera imaging effect is not inferior to that of the Android flagship phone, especially the color is more realistic, close to what we actually see with the naked eye, and the night scene shooting ability is also compared to iPhone 11 has been greatly improved. The
LiDAR radar scanner first appeared on the iPad Pro, and Apple used it to improve the intelligent AI function and make the augmented reality experience better. This year, Apple installed LiDAR in the rear camera system of the iPhone 12 Pro. In the current usage scenario, there are not many practical uses. After all, no one uses a mobile phone to measure height every day. But in the subtle, LiDAR can improve the photographing ability, especially in the night scene mode, using the details provided by the LiDAR depth map, allowing the subject to be in focus clearly, and creating a soft and soft background.
Although Apple’s new iPhone 12 mini is not on sale at the same time this year, it will not officially go on sale until next month, but for many small-screen parties, the waiting time of more than half a month is also worthwhile. As the screen of mobile phones is getting bigger and bigger, it is more and more difficult for one-handed to hold. As the smallest and thinnest 5G mobile phone, the iPhone 12 mini achieves a balance of size and performance. The controllable operating experience provides an exclusive moment for those who never forget. However, it is worth noting that the reduced size and thinner iPhone 12 mini will suffer a severe test of battery life. For users of an Apple family portrait, maybe I will use it as a backup machine to supplement the iPhone 12 Pro.
