Hi everyone Aaron here for Zollotech and this is the iphone 12 pro max i've been using it for about a month now it's been out to the public a little bit less than that but i've been using it full time for about that amount of time now before we go any further this video is in hdr so make sure you're watching it on the youtube app on an iphone or if you're on a mac make sure you're not using chrome instead use safari since it will show up properly so if you have an hdr display you'll see it if not you'll just see what looks like normal video so apple tv it should work fine as well and so like i said it's 4k hdr and hopefully you're seeing the 4k resolution it does take a little bit of time for youtube to process that but in general the camera looks amazing and it's recording from an iphone 12 pro now this particular phone like i said i've been using it for a month and i absolutely love it in fact every time i pick it up because of the squared off edges it just feels a little bit more premium to me than the previous generation now this is going to be very subjective and not everyone's going to feel this way but because i've been wanting these squared off edges for so long to come back since the 4 4s 5 and 5s now we have it with the premium line of phones the 12 and 12 pro max and all of the new lineups so i really appreciate the overall squared off design the stainless steel is holding up. well i don't have a single mark on it but it is a fingerprint magnet so if you're not using a case or anything like that then it will definitely show a lot of fingerprints especially if you're using anything other than i guess the silver phone the darker the phone it seems to be a little bit more of a fingerprint magnet now the nice thing is the frame overall really seems to protect the display so this particular display doesn't have a single scratch on it and i'm not using a case or a screen protector i prefer the overall texture and feel of the glass and the back and i'm not using a case full time anyway and it seems to hold up really well i've had no issues whatsoever with it and the 12 the iphone 12 seems to have a couple scratches on it for some reason my 12 pro max does not and i think one of the reasons is i'm careful with it.

but the other thing is is the screen does not protrude past the frame of the phone so it doesn't stick up over the edge like it does on the 11 pro max so i've had zero scratches i'm very careful with it either way but i don't drop my phones or anything but it's held up extremely well although this did fall behind my nightstand when i was trying to put it on the the magsafe duo charger and it doesn't have a scratch on it and it fell onto a carpet about a foot away so it's not that big of a deal but in general it's held up well i have no scratches on the lenses or anything like that even though they protrude out a little bit further than i'd like you'll see they stick up above the top of the lenses so even with that they seem to hold up really well and i've had no complaints as far as that part goes now as far as the display overall it looks great it's bright in sunlight it is turned all the way up so as you can see it's all the way up and it does use pwm i've mentioned this before but that's not really much of an issue for me with this phone it seems to be at a high enough rate it doesn't bother my eyes at all i've only heard from a few people that say that it still bothers their eyes on any of the iphone 12 series so it seems to be holding up really well and in general it's just fantastic when it comes to that so it seems like no issues there the display is great it's bright and great for watching video if you're watching it in landscape it doesn't really matter it's just great overall now the display when watching 4k hdr video is super bright so here's my hdr video on youtube about my iphone 12 pro review and as you can see it's super bright now listen to the speakers as well because they're very loud thoughts on it now this video is in 4k hdr and if it looks all and so this particular phone has been my absolute favorite to watch video on and listen to things because the speakers are pretty good now i would say it's much better with airpods airpods pro or maybe even the new airpods max if you have those since those aren't out until this coming week but in general speakers are great they're loud they're clear and i think that's a win for this phone now as far as its overall size well yes it's a huge phone and for me it was even big going from the 11 pro max so if i put my finger around it i can touch my fingers together but it's hard to do that but you really need huge hands in order to do that and so this is not going to be the right phone for everyone but for me size wise once i got used to it i love the huge display on it i think it's great and it really i just think it feels like one of the best phones apple has ever made now as far as overall connectivity you'll see i have 5g here with three bars 5g is pretty good in most cases it just depends where you live what carrier you have and what your signal strength is but let me go into speed test and so we'll go ahead and hit go i'm currently on t-mobile and we'll give it just a moment here and let's see what we get now we're kind of in the middle of nowhere and you'll see i'm getting about 72 down now in my office with one or two bars i get faster speed so it really depends where you're located it doesn't necessarily matter how many bars of service you have so sometimes i get phenomenal speed and other times i don't now depending where you live you're going to get the 5g millimeter wave and that's the antenna here on the side i don't currently have that through my carrier so it's not something i use regularly but that's more line of sight and still after using it a month i don't think 5g is that big of a deal 4g lte was almost as fast in some cases it's fast most of the time 5g is faster for me.
