How is the battery?

I have a 12 pro max that I’m using as my daily driver in 2024, I’ve had it since December of 2020. Just got my battery replaced by Apple. I love this phone. It’s my favorite iPhone I’ve had so far. Still works great, no signs of slowing down, especially after the battery replacement. I plan to keep it for awhile longer.

Me using my 12 Pro Max since launch still running at 85% battery Health

I got the iPhone 12 pro max. The 1st day came out 2020. My first iPhone 256 GB. And I still got it. I'm not gonna update yet. Your battery percentage 86%, that's not too shabby.

Definitely, still gets support for a decent while longer, even beating out some recently released Sony and ROG phones. Great value for money

I have the 12 Pro Max since it launched in 2021? Anyways, the battery health is at 77% right now with heavy gaming, charged using original charger and belkin charger only. Used google maps for 8+ hours everyday for my job. Alot of drops on hard floor almost every week during work with dents and scratches on the sides. And still never broke the screen. Phone is a tank!!!!

Still happy with mine 3 years on

Another great video Nick. It’s amazing how much fun watching videos on older models can be. I mean I’ve been watching you and several other techno experts for years now and I’ve learned quite a bit so now it’s fun to see how technology has advanced and to see the kind of bargains you can get on phones that are four or five years old but still do everything that every person would need and do it at a great price The average person wouldn’t have to worry about battery life if all they do is make phone calls, social media, and text. If you can get through the day without having to charge your phone doesn’t even matter if you only have 10 or 15% left because all you have to do is recharge it. I see a lot of people walking around with a series phones they bought for three or $400 when they could’ve had an iPhone which I think would probably have been a better buy? Thanks for making things understandable for us every day guys. You have a friend in Columbus Ohio!

Hello! I bought a 12 pro 128gb gold in december for 431 USD. Since then the performance is excellent. The phone is lag free runing on IOS 17.2.1. The cameras is still amazing for a 3 year old phone. I am happy with my purchase. The battery health is on 81% and the screen time is still great for me. I am planning to use this phone for 3 - 4 years. Before that i used a Xiaomi MI A2 4/64 gb.

Nice video

My sister in law used to have this model and in the same white color but then she gave it to me two years ago as she was going to upgrade to a newer model. I accepted the offer and went from iPhone XR to this model and I'm very happy with it so far, the only weird thing is that it sort of turns itself off at random times (it doesn't completely turn itself off but shows a buffering circle, then comes back on) and it's slightly annoying but only happens occasionally and not often enough to be a problem really. So overall I'm happy I got this phone from my sister in law and it's definitely a very solid phone! :)

If I’m completely honest, I’m watching this iPhone 12 Pro Max, which is the very same size that my Mom is using currently she’s been using it for I think 6 to 10 months, now of her phone usage, but the colour is Pacific blue right now

I got my 12 pro max at launch and got a battery replacement last year. Despite not having a nicer refresh rate its mostly the same as the new phones and what do you need a phone to do other than the normal social things. I'm probably going to keep mine until the 17 pro max

Happy halloween nick! may 2024 bring you lots of

May 2024 and I just upgraded my XS Max for a 12 Pro max. Ok, now have the three cameras and zoom options. With all iPhones, stick them in a gel case and they are all basically the same

I have a 1 tb iPhone 14 Pro Max and just ordered a 512gb iPhone 12 Pro Max 📲certified used 0 I only paid like $50 in tax from Verizon wireless ❤❤❤❤

I upgraded my IPhone 6 Plus from 2014 to the 12 Pro Max in 2021. I’ll literally use a phone until it’s literally unusable. This time I’ll wait until the IPhone 16 Pro Max comes out this year because I heard that Apple is gonna make significant changes to the next line up.

I still have the 12 Pro Max since launch. Battery health is shot, but otherwise, pending a battery replacement, it still serves me well since I got it. 👍 I don't play mobile games anymore and I primarily use the phone for regular phone things, ride sharing apps, social media, and camera.

I’ve had my 12 Pro Max since 2020 and Nov 2024 will be 4 years, but I’ll be upgrading to the iPhone 16 Pro and just go with the regular size iPhone since it got a bit annoying caring a big phone, I love how regular versions are very portable and pocket friendly

I've been using an iPhone 12 Pro Max 500gb since 2021 and it still rocks in 2024. I have seen no reason to upgrade. I keep hearing about overheating issues, mine has never overheated. It is still running on the original battery and functions fine, there are no limitations whatsoever. I use the phone for everything. People are saying to get the 13 Pro Max instead, but the 12 Pro Max is known to take more accurate photos than the 13 Pro Max. At this point, those differences are probably negligible, with so many more camera features added on the 15 series. But if it's working, I'm going to hold off before spending $1500 on the latest iPhone. I don't see myself buying another iPhone until the 17 series, maybe the 16 series.

i use this and a pixel 7 pro great phone and my battery life is decent

It’s not worth buying the 13 Pro Max in Alpine Green would be a great phone to get.

Me and my XR we are here watching this and wandering how is it possible that we are still enjoying the life and we do not even think of upgrading until they get rid of that thing they call dynamic island

Probably wait till my battery life drop below 50 percentage before I upgrade I’m at 86 now on my 12’pro max

am trying to get my first iphone and am thinking on 2 options there is a 12 pro max with 512 gb and the other is 13 max for the same price but 128 gb iplay games and a bit off a heavy user over all should i get 512 or make a sacrifice and get 128 thay are the same price so plz ppl who have used both could i get some advice

i heard it's already phased out. what will happen now if i still have iphone 12 pro max?

My quick answer is "No". As a bit of background, ... I've been using the XS for a couple of years now, after upgrading from the 7. My kids, meanwhile, upgraded from the X to the 13 Pro when the mid-year dark green model was released. I've always hated the weight of their phone. I was considering swapping to a 13 Mini when my XS loses the latest iOS. However, with the new Pros being Titanium, that idea is probably redundant - unless the new iPad Mini is released before I need to upgrade. Thanks, as always, for the content.

I had the 13 pro max for 7 months and downgraded to a 12 pro max bc the screen broke on the 13 pm. I can give u the most honest review because I experienced both just recently. The 12 pro max is lighter, thinner, performs exactly the same and battery lasts like 20% less or so. The only thing i noticed was the 60fps (which i got used to in like 1 week) and now i don’t even feel i downgraded, it feels the same to me but just with less battery
