9/10 (Expert Score)

Product is rated as #17 in category Apple Phones

PROS:

Sumptuous design with jewelry-like attention to detail, durable and water-resistant.
Excellent large OLED screen, very bright.
Loud stereo speakers, outstanding audio quality.
The fastest smartphone chip on the planet, 5G, too.
Dependable battery life, fast charging.
Apple iOS 14 is fast and easy to use, 5 years of guaranteed major updates.
Very good photo and video quality across the board, day and night.
LiDAR Scanner has varied applications and use cases (albeit quite niche).
MagSafe is a promising accessory concept.

CONS:

No charger or headphones in the box.
No high refresh rate screen.
iOS needs better file management.
We miss TouchID as FaceID does not work with a mask on.
The new camera offers the same quality as the old one.
Few meaningful upgrades over iPhone 11 Pro Max and even fewer over iPhone 12 Pro.
