Yeah, fingers crossed. I really hope this is the year of the return of Touch ID. As someone who is always wearing a mask, and will keep wearing one in the future (regardless of it being mandatory or not), I really need touch ID, that’s why I keep using an iPhone 8.
Hm yea. +10% on the High performance core isn't massive. +35% on the efficiency cores is great tho
This would really be great because my last three iPhones all suck on battery usage. I want to use my iPhone without neutering down features or turn off Bluetooth during the day. With my AirPods Pro, combined with the Apple Watch slaved to the iPhone 12 Pro Max, I'm good for about four hours of continuous use, and that's about it.
I noticed Max Tech used your comment in his video. Probably because you are the only fake attractive girl on macrumors. The privilege of being an attractive chick in a geek forum.
But my understanding is close to nothing can be viewed in 120 right now, at least on phones? Someone enlighten me. I have an 11 and I’m really thinking of keeping it until 14 shows up. Is a better screen refresh rate needed?
Having seen 120hz on an iPad UI a year or two ago and not owning any Apple devices that currently have it, it’s kind of like Retina. Once you have it you’re NOT going back. It really does make the UI look buttery smooth.
I'd rather have longer battery performance and life first. The percentage at that point would not really matter to most if we get 10hrs full day on screen time.
I believe iOS games can also support 120Hz, as Fortnite does on the iPad. It’s mostly beneficial for scrolling and UI animation smoothness. It probably won’t be as noticeable as it is on the larger-screened iPads, though.
It’s my belief that Apple hasn’t implemented 120hz on the iPhones because of that consideration, but if it’s there in the 13’s it will be because they’ve finally gotten that hurdle cleared from the production capacity standpoint. It’s why the iPads tend to be the launching pad for their display improvements. They move millions of iPads, but they move 10x more iPhones so the iPad is the testbed.
The iPhone battery is so good I don’t need a percentage indicator anymore so far, but it would be great to have that option though.
It's not likely. The iPhone launch was delayed a few weeks last year which pushed it to after the iPad launch. I doubt that will be a factor this year. Apple has previously preferred to launch their new chips on the iPhone.
