My Mophie wireless chargers are definitely more sensitive to placement of the iPhone 12 Pro (with Otterbox Defender case) than with the iPhone 11 (with Otterbox Defender case). They work - just need to find the sweet spot.
As someone still rocking the SE1 and who found the 6/7/8 too large, that is an amusing read.
To be honest I think it’s happened to mine. I just turned off True Tone now and it’s ice white. I will go back to the Apple store in a week to make sure but I think I’m good now.
Face ID is incredible and this thing is so faaassssst
It is definitely a big contrast from the rounded iPhones. I am looking at it as something my hands have to readjust to. I’m just so used to the curved edges now. It’s just different. I was sort of expecting that they would round the edges a bit more. I don’t have one of the newer iPads, so the iPhone 12s may be exactly the same with edges.
I wished they would have put the raw silver stainless steel on the blue instead of the colored blue. To me, that would have made a beautiful contrast. So, I'm going with the silver this year.
Funny, my first impression was the exact opposite: "wow this is light!" then I took off the iPhone X's case and now if I compare both naked, the X feels more compact and slightly lighter than the 12 Pro.
Give yourself some time to get used to it. We have to rewire our brains for a lot of things they were used to, regarding these phones!
Thanks ! No, none actually. The cat just happened to be playing at my feet, I called his attention and snapped away. One thing I always do, is to touch the screen where the main subject is, so as to ensure it is sharp. So in this case his head is really sharp. Looks almost like a portrait.
Back in the day, I did set up my iPhone a couple times as a new phone - but that was back in the day when the whole setup/restore process wasn't as well-oiled as it is now. For the last four iPhones or so, I've always restored from a backup, without any issues. This year, it is noticeable how the whole process of setting up a new phone is better and more reliable. I use a combination of initial setup by transfer from old phone (including the Apple Watch, the process is seamless!) then restoring my encrypted backup via iTunes, and finally, the iPhone downloads a fresh copy of all the apps that were installed. The only thing that gets restored from a backup are settings and data (including all my notes, btw
). I'm very happy the way it works.I haven't received my MagSafe charger yet, but I totally share your appraisal about the cases. The clear case is a huge disappointment. It feels clunky and is a huge pain to take off. I bought the Plum silicone case too, and I'm using that one now. I love the velvety feeling and overall appearance. I'm looking forward to the leather collection!
Very cute cat 😍
OMG! 😳 they did go to town
Yeah I’ve got a neighbor that goes a little nuts for Halloween. lol
OMG!they did go to town

He does the backyard as well. And yes that’s a replica Scooby Doo mystery machine in the driveway.
Kind of a cloudy day in Chicago this morning but thought I'd share this anyway.
Your phone call battery usage doesn’t sound out of the ‘norm’ to me.
The difference between the 11 Pro Max and the 12 Pro:
There is a one line of text difference in usable screen space from the 11 Pro Max and the 12 Pro.
The the 12 Pro is about 2mm taller compared to the 11 Pro. And since the bezels are narrower, the 12 Pro isn't any wider. Somehow Apple has been able to fit a 6.1" screen inside, "in the hands feel," of the X/XS/11Pro.
It is definitely brighter, once you turn off auto-brightness and max the brightness slider. If you keep the auto-brightness on and slide the brightness slider down, you will let the phone save battery.
5G, right now is just a label. I have not seen any difference between LTE/5Ge an 5G... Just in my area I guess. We do have 5G, according to the phone, but not nearly the game-changer the cell companies are selling us. Time will tell.
Really the phone is not much at all different than my 11 Pro. I am not complaining. I get a new phone each year, and if I get the same phone, it's not a big deal, I am feeding an iPhone family of 5 and well everyone gets something better, so we all win. Some win better than others.

I'm also coming from the 11Pro. I have a case on my 12Pro so the edges aren't digging into my hand or fingers, but I'm still finding the increased size a little difficult to handle. I'm keeping the phone and feel sure I can get used to this. In a perfect world I would have preferred my 12 to be the same size as my 11.
No, not the edges for me since it’s in a silicone case, but the charging port on the case is hard plastic so it digs into my pinky sometimes.
I don't have that feeling. I also have an xR and anytime I pick it up, it feels outdated with the rounded edges.

I'm guessing you're a pro photographer? You have some nice composition in that photo!
Posted this in another thread but here are some nature shots from the 12 Pro
DAE feel like the bezels are bigger on the 12/Pro? Maybe it's just because my 11PM has rounded edges but I was a little taken aback when I turned on my 12P and not in a good way
