Is the god damn cable braided? Looks like the same old cheap rubber coating. Damn apple's really ****ing people over.

I'm looking forward to reading all of the complaints tomorrow 
“The display is warmer”
Can’t help but wonder if they checked to see if True Tone and/or Night Shift was on...

The actual weight is on Apple’s website, no one’s putting them on a scale. Good grief!
The display is even warmer than the 11 Pro?! Those were already way warmer than the ones from the years before. Is it just plain yellow now? LOL
Hope the screens with trutone off arnt warmer than the 11 pro’s I dont like the yellow look
Depends on where you live; wrt. contry/city. In my city two networks already have full 5G coverage on 2.5GHz or 3.5GHz and a third is almost there. Now, the main use case for 5G is to resolve congestion and that hasn't been a really big problem here yet, only in a few spots, but I suspect it would have been soon if not for 5G being ready ahead of time.
I'll wait it out as well but only because my phone is an XS and apart from being a bit heavy it really wouldn't give me much of a different experience upgrading yet.
What a bizarre, pointless rant about a non-thing. Please tell me you’re just unaware of the whole “/s” option...
Sweet. Drop tests for sure going to start coming in soon. Can't wait to see how that ceramic shield holds up. Scratches at a level 6? Or 7? With deeper grooves at a level 8?
I would love someone with a keen eye for screen quality to compare a 11 pro to 12 pro
I had the exact opposite feeling about the 12 Pro Pacific Blue. It looks so average now the blue on the 12 looks pretty solid.
I have an XS that I will be passing down to my wife, getting the 12 pro and super excited for upgrades across the board. New design, more RAM, 2x the storage, better camera hardware and software, a14, MagSafe, better and bigger display.
The new charger and earpods are so light you'ill hardly know they are there....
Pacific Blue remains absolutely stunning!
Uh oh, warmer displays... here we go...
Personally, I don’t think I will mind a warmer display (in reason). With increased time in front of monitors, I’ve purchased blue light blockers to avoid eye strain. Yes, I get up and walk around and look away. It’s still a cumulative affect over time.

This gets stated every year but a few things. One, Apple isn’t making you buy a new iPhone, they will be ok regardless. Second, Apple isn’t really at the point where they are designing new iPhones to try and get people to upgrade from last years model. Apple knows it’s a software and services game. They release a new iPhone every year, that way when it’s your time to buy a new one, that way you get the best one they have at that time. Tis the season for people having to justify why they’re not upgrading lol
I wish I had pre-ordered a 12, so I could get it tomorrow and then post about how the Pro Max is an “easy pass” in three weeks.
I ordered the silver Pro. Everybody is gonna have the overhyped Blue, just yearning for that attention.
It doesn't sound like anyone who has received their new iPhone 12 Pro has ANY High-Perf Apps to test out.
Both new "Pro" models have ~5.6 GB of DRAM !
That should make a BIG difference with certain apps !
