iPHONE 12 PRO

Apple took a step back with the iPhone 12’s design, and ended up propelling itself forward instead. The dismissal of the iPhone 11’s curve in favour of sharp-lined metal edges elegantly resurrects the once-controversial frame of the iPhone 4, only this time without the possibility of the signal dropping out if you deign to hold it wrong. It’s a confident look, and though the aluminium edging of the smaller members of the iPhone 12 family is beautiful, the stainless steel frame of the iPhone 12 Pro absolutely complements its price with a premium, weighty feel.

Hidden beneath the rear panel lurk clever magnets, both to properly align Apple’s new MagSafe wireless charger and click on cases and accessories. And let us not forget that Apple’s design nous extends well beyond mere outward appearance. The company’s phone UI is second to none, the Pro’s camera array is astonishingly strong, and the processing power inside is mind blowing.
