Description
This iPhone 12 5G is a premium device with versatile specifications. Compared to previous years, the design of the iPhone was updated. It has a more edgy design, which we know from older iPhones, like the iPhone 5. New features, such as 5G support and a faster processor, are also expecting you.
Stunning OLED display.
The screen of this iPhone 12 5G measures 6.1 inches. However, thanks to the thin screen edges, the device remains compact. Like its predecessor, it has a relatively large notch on the top of the display. This is necessary for Face ID, the exact face recognition. Thanks to the OLED technology, the colours are also very beautiful.
Two camera lenses.
On the back there are two cameras that you can use to take beautiful pictures. Apple is known for its smart camera software, which ensures very good results. Both lenses can be used in combination with night mode, so you can take sharp images even in low light.
In addition, this device has an excellent portrait mode, in which the background is blurred, while the subject is sharp in the picture. This creates a cool and professional effect. The selfie camera is also good, so you definitely choose the show on social media.
MagSafe functionality.
New in the iPhone 12 5G product line is the MagSafe accessory. MagSafe was the brand name for MacBook chargers, but in this case it stands for magnetic accessories. These include cases, chargers and card holders that are simply clicked on the back of your iPhone so they are always well attached.
Scope of delivery.
A mobile phone is usually supplied with a charger and headphones. This is no longer the case with the 2020 iPhone series. Apple’s idea is behind saving waste and thus being more environmentally conscious. However, this means that if you don’t already have it, you have to buy it separately. The iPhone 12 5G comes with a Lightning to USB-C cable, but not with an adapter.
Lightning-fast performances.
This smartphone is equipped with an A14 chip. This is a processor developed by Apple itself that works optimally with the software. So you can expect lightning-fast performance from this chip. In addition, the iPhone 12 5G is the first iPhone capable of connecting to the 5G network.
iOS 14.
Apple is very good at developing operating systems and iOS 14 is no exception. This version has a new look and is equipped with some new features. For example, it is possible to place widgets on the home screen and an app library has been added.
