The 12 Pro Max’s main camera is an entirely new sensor that promises improved low-light performance.īut I’m generally not a Max lover because it’s so dang big, and I find the iPhone 12 Pro Max just as unwieldy as its predecessors. And for once, it also has a serious feature improvement beyond the size: A new camera. There’s also the core feature most people buy a Max for: Much longer battery life. If you already have an iPhone 11 Pro Max or XS Max, the size won’t be shocking to you - but in the latter case, you will be looking at a nearly 10% weight bump.įor Max lovers, the 12 Pro Max will be even more appealing because it has a larger 6.7-inch display - and my oh my, what a display! - without a considerable difference in overall size. When you scale its stainless steel construction (shared with the 12 Pro) up to this size, the weight gets out of hand pretty quickly. The 12 Pro Max is just over 9% taller and wider than the 12 Pro, and a seriously hefty 20% heavier (and 39% heavier than the 12!). That then opens up the top-end: The iPhone 12 Pro Max. It’s a really great size for the “default” phone choice. I never found the iPhone 12 to be either overwhelming or constraining. Even though it has a solid screen size at 6.1-inches, the smaller bezels and flat edges make sure it’s still a very manageable size. I’ve gone extensively into the size and feel of the iPhone 12 in my review, but since I’m talking about relative sizes here, it’s worth reiterating how it feels.

Not just because you’re getting more screen in a smaller size - that’s pretty easy with the small bezels and no Touch ID - but because the 12 Mini is dramatically more powerful, and has full 5G support, with a better display, and much more capable cameras. The iPhone 12 Mini is even considerably smaller than the new iPhone SE (and therefore, the iPhone 8), which is a real accomplishment. The identical thickness and hardware finish are somehow even more special in this tiny object. It’s even better when paired with the light weight, which is exaggerated considering the full-sized iPhone 12 itself is very light. Being able to wrap your hand around the 12 Mini is amazing, because that just isn’t something we’ve been able to do with most phones lately. It’s just 89% the height and width of the 12, and 82% its weight. Starting from the bottom and moving up, the 12 Mini is the most dramatically different in size.
I’ll start with the hard dimensions, and go from there.
And remember, the iPhone 12 and 12 Pro are the exact same size, so I’ll be using “iPhone 12” as the stand-in for both. Andrew Martonik/Digital Trends Size breakdown So now, you can just pick the iPhone size you desire, and not feel like you’re giving up fundamental parts of the experience. You’re getting the same base design, specs, and features from the little iPhone 12 Mini up to the giant iPhone 12 Pro Max. It has four phones in three distinct size categories, and those size differences aren’t superfluous - they’re very tangible jumps from the iPhone 12 Mini, to the 12 and 12 Pro, and then up to the 12 Pro Max.Īnd unlike previous small and large models, which were oddly compromised or built on an old or lower-quality platform, there’s a surprising amount of consistency to the iPhone 12 lineup.
Apple’s iPhone 12 lineup is particularly compelling because it addresses a wider range of people’s needs than prior generations.
