| ![]() Ok, I bit the bullet. I've asked a friend to hand carry the iPhone Pro Max from the US on Nov 14th. It's $1,100. Problem is its available in Nov 13th, and he has a flight to catch the same night. If it doesn't arrive, I'll settle for the Pro. Colour is the new Pacific Blue |

I also tried everything from dark mode, white point, tru tone, brightness settings and a blue filter screen. Nothing helped, my eyes used to become red, puffy and burn in 10 minutes of using the phone. Cheers | |

| ![]() Enable DC dimming if available. Else keep the phone at 100% brightness at all times. |

But I must say that color looks epic. I just got 12 pro yesterday and am mighty impressed. Although the screen size is 6.1”, it is very similar to 11 pro and not with 11/XR. Here’s some eye candy. ![]() ![]() Last edited by vb-san : 8th November 2020 at 06:55. Reason: typo | |

| ![]() Guys, I am looking to upgrade from LGv30. I have never had an iPhone before. Confused between 12 and 12 pro. Unlike the previous generations, 12 is on par with pro, in terms of specs. I was actually surprised to see that. I dont care about camera since I hardly use it. I have 2 questions. 1. Is 25k premium worth it?. Also, paying over 1 lac for a phone is a psychological barrier. 2. If I were to buy pro, it would be silver color. Because the rest have a coating on frame which I dont like. (I dont use a phone case). I have seen a few YouTube videos. The steel is so shiny it kind of looks ugly. (My personal opinion) . Also the frame is rectangular unlike curvy previous generation phones. My LGv30 looks very premium, although the frame is aluminum. If anyone has a silver 12 pro, can you tell how it feels? (I wont be able to visit a store to buy) Last edited by adithya.kp : 7th November 2020 at 20:38. |

![]() Strangely I have had the exact opposite experience, I didn’t have any issues with the Samsung Note 8 and Note 10 Plus which I sold and bought the 11 Pro Max, which I was forced to sell and ultimately settled for the iPhone 11. I tried the blue light screen guard too, didn’t help me at all. Don’t want to depend on any type of glasses so will have to give that a miss along with the phone if it comes to that. I will definitely give the 12 Pro Max a try and update. Cheers 100% brightness on the phone all the time is like blasting your eyes with insane light and an invitation to eye problems in future for sure. The iPhone Pro phones have crazy brightness levels, please don’t ever do that. Cheers Last edited by vb-san : 8th November 2020 at 07:50. Reason: Back-to-back posts merged. Thank you! | |

Also the iPhone 12 is really sharp around the edges. Hurts the hand actually. Can’t use it without a case. Here are some snaps of the product red iPhone 12 and taken in iPhone 12. ![]() ![]() ![]() | |

| ![]() I pre-booked my 12 Mini on Friday and during the time I got out of the shop and returned home, I was convinced that it is going to be way too small for me. This was due to the helpful salesperson at Vijay Sales, who actually handed me a 12 mini case for a day, to get a feel of the size of the phone. After having used the 10 for more than a year, the small screen won't cut it for me. To make myself convinced, I switched my 10 with my Mother's 7 for the past 2 days and I am done with small phones (and my mother with her 7 who won't return the 10 back). There will be too much compromise in the screen real estate and at 44 with weakening eyesight, iPhone 12 it is. Now to order the accessories ! |
