Review on Renewed Apple iPhone 12, 128GB, White for AT&T - Like New by Akihiko Kichiro ᠌

Revainrating 3 out of 5

There are pros and cons, think before buying.

In 2022, I had an iPhone 4s, which at the time was unique and left me with some of my fondest phone-related memories. But I didn't like the 6th axis's design at all, so I switched to blackberry, then to several various android manufacturers, and finally, after four years, to samsung. My company just gave me the 12th iPhone, and I've decided to give it another shot, so I'm going to put it up against the s21. Well, so let's talk benefits first. Apple's designers aren't starving themselves for nothing; the phone is beautiful to look at, if a little unpleasant to the touch due to its sharp edges. Putting it in a case immediately robs it of its allure, yet going caseless is a bit terrifying. The design of the outside is solid as well. There's no denying that iOS's widgets are prettier than Android's. When compared to Samsung and others, Apple's icons are also superior in aesthetic quality and the complete screen of icons appears harmonious. Nevertheless, Apple does not provide the option that I would prefer—a desktop that can be personalized, with a swipe from bottom to top opening the program menu. Everything is lovely, but that's about all the good points there are. As a novice, I decided against getting bangs. While face recognition is effective, it is often cumbersome to use. It is unclear why a sub-screen print has not been developed (on s21 it works without errors in a split second). CarPlay - a 2022 native navigator is not very good, but Google Maps is better than nothing. The phone's dialer hasn't been updated in 12 years; you still can't use the keyboard to type numbers quickly. Without special equipment, TV screencasting is impossible. Why is it unable to alter the swipe-to-go-back action's starting point on the left side? The iPhone for people who are left-handed? Stretching is inconvenient, but setting up the Samsung is a breeze. No phone or headphone charging is available. All in all, these concerns are minor. Everyone used to be so proud of their closed system, but these days they just keep their cards in a case and utilize the web-based versions of their banking services (without face id and other goodies). After using an iPhone for a week, I returned to my old Samsung and donated the new one to my family.
