iPhone 12 Unboxing.

Here is the reformatted text:

Oh my God! It's exactly the same. Thank you very much for watching my camera review.

So the camera situation isn't the clearest in the world, so for right now, let's just focus on the 12 and the 12 Pro. So generally speaking, the cameras are very similar to what we had last generation. With the 12, you get these same ultra wide camera as before, and you have a similar wide-angle camera just with an improved lens that lets in a little bit more light.

Same story for the 12 Pro, same ultra wide, same wide-angle camera. This just adds the telephoto from the iPhone 11 Pro. Now, if you're used to the way that the iPhone 11 takes photos, you'll know that that is generally speaking one of the best smartphone cameras out there, and the 12 is no exception.

So, there are improvements to the processing side of things, so the images should look generally speaking a little bit better, especially with the HDR implementation. It's a little bit more aggressive this year, and sort of gives you a bit of more of a contrasty image, I suppose. But outside of that, there is an other story when it comes to the iPhone 12 Pro Max, which we will have shortly.

But that gives you a better telephoto that's more zoomed in and importantly, a much larger and hopefully better main camera's sensor. Now, in addition to the telephoto camera, the 12 Pro also does have a LiDAR sensor. So unlike some other phones that have completely useless extra sensors, this one is at least mildly useful.

So you can use it for a couple of things. Of course, anything that takes advantage of ARKit will be more detailed because you have a much better depth map of the room that you're in. But for most of us where you're going to really notice it, is when it comes to autofocus. So the LiDAR, especially in low light, will be able to help the phone focus better.

Specifically for things such as night mode portraits. Now one area where the iPhones have been the king for several years now is in video and I think that the 12 and the 12 Pro will absolutely continue that. So right now you're looking at 4K 24p video, although this will go up to 60p as always.

However, there's a major difference this year which is the addition of HDR, specifically Dolby Vision. What, what's Dolby Vision? You have 30 seconds.

- Well, Dolby Vision is kind of High Dynamic Range video or HDR, if you will. So basically the goal is to take the most amount of information in your bright highlights and your darkest shadows, and be able to see into those bright highlights and those dark shadows.

Now with normal video, you can kind of see everything, but the idea with Dolby Vision is the use of special metadata to transform the video in different brightness so that way you know, you can see it on your smartphone screen or you could see it on a dimmed TV in a dark room or your iPad when it's (phone beeping) (phone beeping).

Great explanation. There’s still so much more to talk about with the iPhone 12 line. For example, the Pro line will get ProRAW. A better raw format that incorporates more of the image processing.

When we have our hands on the 12 Pro Max, we'll be able to take a look at those upgraded camera sensors and how that all looks. We also will be able to take a look at the battery life long-term, especially considering that these are of course, 5G phones.

And then there's the biggest question in the room, how is the little baby brother the iPhone 12 Mini gonna stack up? So definitely be sure to subscribe to the channel and you may wanna keep an eye out for not only our speed tests but also we're going to do a much more in-depth video very shortly over at our second channel, This Is. Matt why should they subscribe?

- Because This Is is awesome.

Okay, let's not lie to the audience.

WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: en- This is the iPhone 12 and the 12 Pro.So let's see what's inside these phonesand what they're all about.I can tell you for one thing,there's not as much in the box.So let's start out with the iPhone 12which has been very kindlyprovided to us in the blue color.- Pacific blue?- No, I think that's the 12 Pro,I think this is blue, blue.Wait, how blue do you thinkthis is, pretty blue, right?- I think it's like violetin Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory.- That's blue.- Yeah.- Alright, here we go.Woo! that's pretty blue.All right, so that's not plastic on it.Nope, that's that's blue.Hello, welcome to Austin'sblue iPhone cornerwhere this is blue is,is, that's really blue.So immediately you cansee that the iPhone 12has a brand new design that is 100% uniqueand never been usedbefore on any iPhone ever,such as the greatest pieceof technology ever made,the iPhone 4.Come on the iPhone 4 is the best design.We all know it.You know it, you know it,you especially know it.The iPhone 4, iPhones peaked then.Smartphones peaked then.So you do get a USB-C to Lightning cableunlike the USB-A cablethat you previously got.So this is clearly the way of the future.Although, if you are an astute vieweryou'll notice that there'sno power adapter in the boxand there's also no headphones.So buy some Beats, buy a USB-Cpower adapter, buy MagSafe.I don’t see why this is so hard,it seems very clear instructions.Oh, we get a singleApple sticker, how kind.- That's 50% lessthan what you got last year.- Don't you care aboutthe environment, Matt?- When it comesto my Apple stickers,how am I supposed toshow two separate peoplethat I am better than them?(laughing)- Let's take a look at theiPhone 12 Pro really quick.I assumed this is the exact same thing.So unlike with previous iPhones,specifically with the Proand the non-Pro models,the actual hardware shouldbe essentially identicalas far as the actual dimensions.Ooh, I like that more.That is nicer.So something interesting, italmost feels like it's thicker,even though I know thatthat's not the case.I think it's entirely becauseit has those squared off sideswhich of course is the best moveto fit the most amountof stuff in the phone.There's no wasted spacehere, but it's interesting.Now that being said, thedimensions are identicalbetween the 12 and the 12 Pro,but there are a few differences.So you'll see that the shinyglass on the back of the 12has been replaced by amatte finish on the 12 Pro.Personally I think that looks nicer.When you put the two phonesside-by-side, what you'll see isyou have a matte aluminumframe on the iPhone 12and a shiny stainlesssteel frame on the 12 Pro.Believe me, the 12 Pro looks great.But I've touched it now,it looks slightly less great.Look it's a fingerprintmagnet, surprise, surprise.So you put the iPhone 12side by side with the 11,you'll see it's a little bit smaller.However, when you putthe 12 Pro side-by-sidewith the 11 Pro you'll seeit's a little bit bigger.Part of that is because thesephones are identically sized,Right? I think probablythe bigger upgrade here isgoing from something like the 11 to the 12because not only are you gettingmuch better OLED display,it's higher resolution andjust, it's just a better panel.But on top of that, I likethe size of the 12 more.For me the 11 and the 10are always just a little bit too bigbut this feels like a good middle ground.Let's see how they literally weigh up.I was gonna say measure up,but that didn't make quite as much sensewith my Handy-Dandy scale that we boughtfor some other videos I've forgot.Who wants to take bets?which is the heaviest iPhone?- The 12 Pro.- The 12 Pro's the heaviest of all four?- Yes.- All right, Ken, which one's heaviest?- Hedging bets on 11.- You think 11 Pro's heavier?- 11 Pro.Woo! Spicy. All right, let'sstart out with the iPhone 11.192.All right, we have our benchmark.You writing this down Matt?- No, you have my phone.Next, let's try the iPhone 12.Whoa! 163.Yo, that's a lot lighter.Al right, now we go for the iPhone 11 Pro187.You sir are incorrect.Wait, what was the first one?- 192.- Yeah, there we go. I remember that.Now, here comesthe Medium Chungus itself, the 12 Pro.187.Ooh, so I put 11 as the heaviest.I will say hey, wait, wait, can I feel it.No, it feel the same. Wait,I have a great idea.Actually, I have justthe right prop for this.Okay, this part shouldn'tmake it in the video.Okay, so what was thedifference in the weight again?The 12 is $200 cheaperso I figured if I put $200 on the 12,it weighs the same as aPro, but that's, it's,(laughing)Why do you watch my videos?Who let me in front of the camera today?There is a lot new withthe iPhone this year,but one of the biggest features MagSafe.It's specifically whatthis can and can't do.So, the first thing that wehave is the MagSafe charger.Now I was actuallyplaying around with thison Instagram yesterday, andit actually is kind of funbecause nowadays MagSafework on the iPhone 11 Probut it even works on thePixel. So let's start outwith some help from our friends at OnePluswho have their 65 Watt Warp Charger.It's just seeing what this doeswhen I connect it all up together.So, if I attach this to theback of the 12 Pro we jump up to- 5.2, 6, 7, 8- Oh we're, we'reclimbing, we're climbing.So this charger is good for 45 Watts.So in theory, it shouldbe plenty good enough.Hang on, so let's actuallytry something herebefore we go too deep into it, right?So let's use MagSafe oniPhone 11. Interesting.Now it's maybe not the greatest examplebecause I'm at 90% charge.Let's try to use MagSafeon the Google Pixel 5which I know will work and iteven will work magnetically.Interesting. So I wonderif MagSafe is limited toaround five Watts on an older device?But if you plug it into a newer devicelike the 12 or the 12 Pro,you'll get that full speed.So now let's try witha 36 Watt Anker Brickand see what we can get.7, 8, 9, 10.So it seems with MagSafethat you definitely don't need to go outand buy an Apple branded USB-C charger,but you do need somethingthat will provideat least 20 Watts via USB-C power delivery.Now we're not seeing quite the15 Watts speeds yet however,this phone is at like 80something percent battery.So if we were a little bit lowerwe would likely see abit more power out of it.What I'm really curious about with MagSafeis how strong is this magnet?So obviously it sticksmuch better to the 12than it did to any of the other phones.Yeah, that seems pretty goodSo yeah, so let me try it.- I don't like that grin!- Nope, no I don't like that.I don't like that at all.Woo! Okay, all right.It at least can hold.That's pretty good. Whydon't we see what happenswhen you actually put itinside of a MagSafe case?Yeah, okay. So it does seemlike it charges at aboutthe same speed regardlessof whether you havea case on it or not.Is the magnet on the case strong enough?Yes, yeah, that feels prettymuch exactly the same.So MagSafe is aboutmore than just charging.So every accessory hasnot only those magnetsbut also a little NFC Chipto communicate with the phonewhat kind of accessory it iswhich is how the phone knowsI'm putting a blue case onfor example. Now there are other thingsthat you can do with this.So I know Marques dida video on the wallet.The wallet seems likea good idea in theory,but in practice maybe not the strongestsort of magnetic connection. I don't knowif I would trust it personally,but you can imagine a tonof other third partiestaking advantage ofMagSafe to add things likea phone mount or all kinds of crazy stuff.I'd love a tripod mod.If I can just drop myphone directly on a tripod,like how cool would that be?One of the big questionsabout the 12 and the 12 Prothis year is of course performance.Not only do these have thebrand new Apple A14 Bionic,but they also have full 5G support.So make sure to subscribefor the full performancereview coming soonbut between now and then,we have to take a little bitof a closer look at the camera.Oh my God!
