    Revised 14.2 for iPhone 12's (Face ID unlocking WITH face mask on? - Bug??)

    I updated the iPhone 12 Pro Max to the new 14.2 build last night. Install was fine, no problems from what I could see. Was at the store about 1 hour ago, face mask on, sunglasses on, winter hat on. I pulled out the phone and was ready to manually enter passcode in, the Face ID screen appeared...

    iPhone 12 mini wifi drop-outs / jitter

    Just recently updated from an iPhone 7 to an iPhone 12 mini. I'm having problems with the Wifi continually dropping out. This means I can't really use my phone at all for streaming or making calls over wifi. I get between 25% and 50% packet loss when pinging a number of endpoints. I've tested...

    iPhone 12 iPhone 12 so cool at an angle?

    No, not "hip" cool, color temp cool. Cue Eiffel 65... Normal or screen protector effect? 11Max vs 12, TrueTone off, Auto Brightness off on both. Apologies, taken on my kid's 6. While nobody really views a phone like that, at slight angles there's still a slight gradient change.

    iPhone 12 Stain on iPhone 12 Camera Plate

    Hey all, Just want to know what could be the cause of the stain on the camera plate of the black iPhone 12 and what could be done to fix it?

    iPhone 12 The Real Reason Apple Chose to Not Shrink the Notch

    Full disclosure: While I can’t completely confirm the report I have, my source is close to Apple and has been correct in the past. One of the biggest questions with the launch of the iPhone 12 series of phones was why Apple didn’t shrink the notch. Apple could have easily done it according to...

    iPhone 12... is this lens flare normal?

    Hi guys. I just got my new iPhone 12 and I am dissapointed about the horrible lens flare that I detected when I take pictures, as you can see in the shared photos. I tried to remove the case, restart, etc. but nothing worked. Do you think my iPhone 12 is faulty? I come from an iPhone 8 Plus...

    iPhone 12 MagSafe + Apple Watch Magnetic Puck Holder

    Anyone come across anything like these? Have seen a few on Etsy but they're separate units, not one holder for both chargers.

    iPhone 12 Pro Apple should consider Aluminum Pro/Pro Max model for less weight

    I love large-screen iPhones and all the Pro models features, but this extra weight is a killer, and since Apple is definitely going to increase the battery size in iPhone 13, the overall device weight may increase further or even stay the same on Pro Max models. I have recently played with...

    Choosing an iPhone 12 leather case - aging

    So today Apple released their newest leather cases and they all look beautiful! I’ve ordered the Pacific Blue 12 Pro and I’m curious which leather case y’all think would look best with it - Baltic Blue (matches phone), California Poppy (contrast and I like orange), or Saddle Brown (a classic)...

    iPhone 12 Pro Face ID suddenly unlocking iPhone 12 Pro even with mask

    Hi everyone! I am wearing the mask in the attached picture, and today, my iPhone 12 Pro started unlocking even with it on! I have not done any Face ID registration with my mask on. I wonder if this is because my mask does not cover my chin? Since the beginning of the pandemic, I have been...

    What's your first charge?

    How do you guys charge your brand new iPhone 12's right now or when you get a new one? Do you charge it till 100% before use. Do you let it drop to 0% after a full charge. Or what is the best in your opinion?

    Magsafe base or mount?

    I like the idea of the MagSafe charger but I'm not a fan of how it comes with the phone when I pick it up. Does anyone know of any companies with a base for it so that the MagSafe charger stays on your desk / nightstand / table? I know other wireless chargers already do this but the MagSafe...
