First Look at the Purple iPhone 12 and the Spring 2021 Apple Accessories

The shade of purple on the new Purple iPhone 12 is just such a fantastic color. In the whole iPhone 12 and 12 Pro lineup there is no other color that comes close to it. As mentioned in a previous post, if Apple had released this color on launch day I would not have picked […]

The Official Apple iPhone 12 mini Silicone Case with MagSafe Review

Apple has been making first party iPhone cases for several years by now, but I have largely steered clear of buying them due to their higher prices and lack of full coverage of the body (iPhone 6 to 11 cases). They offer less than ideal protection, does not show off the beauty of the iPhone […]

MagSafe on the iPhone 12/mini/Pro/Max

MagSafe, if it is not already painfully obvious, is not a new technology. It is based on Apple’s implementation/fork of the Qi wireless standard, and as such, has all of the cons that come along with Qi. Is there a reason for you to specifically seek out MagSafe charging as opposed to just using a […]

Is the iPhone 12 mini too small? Or too big? Coming from the iPhone 5, iPhone 5s and the iPhone SE (2016)

Ignore the cling wrap please LOL Having seen the iPhone 12/Pro in person, I am pretty convinced that without a case, the size of the 12/Pro is probably just nice for many people. Which bring the questions; Will the 12 mini be too small? Is this the real successor to the iPhone 5s size phones […]

First Impressions of the iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 Pro, and Also the iPad Air

I did not order one of the 6.1 inch iPhone 12s, simply because I am way more interested in either the iPhone 12 mini and the iPhone 12 Pro Max. So no physical phone for me to play for now. How does one get to see the actual phones in an Apple Store in these […]
