iPhone 12 Details and Warranty Information

Although the iPhone 12 isn't the newest smartphone on the market, it's still an amazing phone with great specs. We outlined all of the information about these beautiful devices, as well as warranty information.

The iPhone 12 comes in a whopping four different models. They are as follows:

Some cell phone carriers have slight pricing variations. Since the phone is older, you can find all models with significant discounts. Also, Apple offers a trade-in program where you can get up to $500 off for select models; this discount is calculated at checkout.

Apple’s iPhone 12 launch event was on October 13th, 2020, the same day as Amazon Prime Day. The preorder and shipping dates were different. The iPhone 12 and 12 Pro opened for preorders on October 16th and shipped on October 23rd. Later, iPhone 12 Mini and Pro Max opened for preorders on November 6th and shipped on November 13th.

Like previous iPhone models, the 12 comes with facial recognition unlock.

Absolutely. iPhones have long been leaders in cell phone camera quality. In fact, the iPhone 11 camera was continuously ranked as the best one in 2019. The breakdown of cameras is as follows:

The most exciting advancement for iPhone 12 models was the addition of improved night mode. Android has long been the leader in this feature, and finally, iPhones are catching up.

The Apple and Samsung flagship phones are both fantastic. If you’re an Apple loyalist, the Note 20 probably doesn’t have any stand-out features to make you switch, and visa versa. The tougher decision for an Android fan is probably Galaxy or Pixel? Likewise, for Apple fans, it’ll be tough to decide which of the four iPhone 12 models to get.

Some of the basic specs are as follows:

There are multiple cases to choose from. Digital Trends outlined five fashionable and functional cases. If you’re looking for an ultra-thin case, check out Totallee. They claim to be “a pocket-friendly, ultra-thin iPhone 12 case for an extra layer of protection.” Our favorite part is that they have a clean and simple design with no logos.

With two of the models costing $1,000+, protection beyond a phone case is essential. Cracked screens are the most common issue, but water damage, battery failure, and other malfunctions are common, too. iPhone insurance will protect your new iPhone from costly repairs for up to two years from the date of purchase.

It’s true that the new iPhones claim to have a 4 times better drop performance. However, in order to do this, they had to introduce completely new material. While we love that Apple is working on durability, we don’t trust these new claims. That’s why phone insurance is still so important. Aside from accidental damage, manufacturer and other internal malfunctions happen. Instead of being stuck with a $500+ bill, get Upsie and only pay a small deductible.

AppleCare+ is the warranty plan offered by Apple when you purchase an iPhone. There are two variations: one with loss and theft protection and one without. While AppleCare is great, it’s not the best option. Upsie offers the same protection as the non-loss and theft plan but has a lower deductible. Upsie's deductible for cracked screens is $0.

Perhaps the best part about Upsie is that you can still get your smartphone, or other apple products, repaired at the Genius Bar under Upsie’s reimbursement model. You will pay for the repair upfront, and Upsie will reimburse you for any approved claims. In most cases, you can get your smartphone repaired the same day as making a claim.

If you’re purchasing an iPhone 12, congratulations! The four models are amazing. But don’t forget to protect your beautiful new device with Upsie.
