The typical lifespan of a smartphone battery is at least 500 cycles while maintaining at least 80% capacity. Photograph: Samuel Gibbs/The GuardianĪpple does not provide an expected lifespan for the iPhone 12 Pro’s battery, but it can be replaced for £69. The back of the device is scratch resistant glass, but it isn’t the same as the resilient ceramic material covering the screen.

Fully charging using Apple’s new MagSafe wireless charger takes more than three hours connected to the same 20W USB-C charger. The charge rate drops significantly beyond 95%, which is reached in less than 90 minutes.

It takes 25 minutes to charge the battery to 50% but just under two hours for a full charge using a £19 Apple 20W USB-C charger – no power adapter is included in the box, just a USB-C to Lightning cable. That means the phone will last from 7am on day one until the evening of day two with normal use – including four hours on 5G. It has little impact on battery outside of intensive testing.īattery life is excellent and the phone lasts about 40 hours between charges with the screen used for apps and video for well over six hours in that time, which is similar to the iPhone 12 and longer than most of the competition. Performance is equally excellent all round: snappy, slick and fast to process photos, videos or when playing games.ĥG performance is the same as the iPhone 12, too: speeds match the competition but indoor 5G reception is slightly worse than the OnePlus 8T or Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2. The iPhone 12 Pro has the same A14 Bionic processor as the iPhone 12 and iPad Air, but with 6GB of RAM instead of just 4GB and with a starting storage of 128GB – double the 12’s 64GB.

The iPhone 12 Pro still has the old Lightning connector for charging, not the newer and universal USB-C port found on the iPad Pro, iPad Air and Mac computers, and most non-Apple devices. Water resistance: IP68 (6 metres for 30 mins)
#IPHONE 12 PRO CAMERA GUARD BLUETOOTH#
Screen: 6.1in Super Retina XDR (OLED) (460ppi)Ĭamera: triple 12MP rear cameras with lidar, 12MP front-facing cameraĬonnectivity: LTE, wifi 6, NFC, Bluetooth 5, lightning, ultra wideband and GPS It is also covered by Apple’s new more drop-resistant “Ceramic Shield” material, and has the MagSafe charging and accessory system built into its back. The screen is the same stunning 6.1in OLED display as in the iPhone 12, but is slightly brighter on the 12 Pro.

It is only 0.1mm wider than its 11 Pro predecessor, which had a smaller 5.8in screen. It is also 25g heavier than the standard 12, which makes it relatively heavy at 187g compared with similarly sized and specced competitors, and slightly harder to hold as a result. The stainless steel sides have a lustrous finish to them, which in the case of the pacific blue colour shown here has a dark but super shiny finish - it will have you polishing the sides regularly to rid them of fingerprints.
