iPhone 12 Pro Vs iPhone XR! (Comparison) (Review) By Simple Alpaca

Welcome back everyone time to do another comparison, this time around between the brand new iPhone 12 Pro and the somewhat older, iPhone 10r. Now, as you know, both these phones, first, the 12 pro- is the newest one, but the iPhone 10r is still being sold in the Apple Store, which is fascinating. So let's go and see whether you should pick up the 499 iPhone 10r or the thousand dollar iPhone 12 Pro now I'll find the cheapest ones on Amazon only come both down in the description below you can get them from there and help support the channel. At the same time, now, looking on the front first side by side, you can kind of see that the iPhone 12 Pro is a little thinner. It's not a crate or just a little. You know smaller in every dimension, and that mostly has to do with the newer flat sides that we have on the iPhone 12 Pro, but for a bezel-less notched iPhone.

The tenor actually had quite a bit of bezel around it. It's not a big deal, though I'm kind of used to it. I think everyone doesn't really care, but just know that in the hand the iPhone 12 Pro is in a smaller footprint. They have the same size screens, though the iPhone 10r has that 6.1 inch IPS panel on the front, and it was not a bad panel. It's a little above HD that resolution and I think for a majority of people.

This is a pretty decent panel. I don't think this would be anybody's perfect panel, but you know it had a very little bezel around the whole entire design had the notch face ID typical things that we already saw on that thousand dollar iPhone 10 at the time. So this was definitely a pretty decent phone in terms of that- and I don't think really anybody if they're picking up this phone they're really not going to see that crazy of an increase of like quality of design or panel if they go to the iPhone 12 Pro and that's not to say that the 12 pro has a bad panel, because it's definitely a good panel. It's a 6.1 inch super retina Dr OLED panel, and it looks great and I, of course it's better than the iPhone 10r, but I don't think for the price difference between these that it's that big of a deal, if I'm being honest now, the bezel list could not bezel-less, but with the flat sides it does make. It seems thinner on every dimension.

Furthermore, it seems like there's less bezel, which is really cool, even though it's not necessarily the case. Furthermore, it looks like a better phone, in my opinion, and the panel for sure is better on the iPhone 12 Pro than on the iPhone 10r. So in terms of the front for sure the iPhone 12 Pro wins now, in terms of the thickness, I can definitely see how the iPhone 12 Pro is the thicker. It is a thinner phone, I think, with the iPhone 10r. It's it feels thicker, maybe but like when you're feeling, both you know when you're going day by day, you're not really going to notice it, but I really do like the flat sides on the iPhone 12 Pro for sure and on the back you can see.

We have a glass backs on both, but the iPhone 12 Pro does have this frosted glass back, which feels really nice. Even when you scratch it, it feels perfect. I wouldn't recommend scratching with anything else. Besides your fingers, you do have a single camera setup on the iPhone 10 or triple camera setup, with a LIDAR sensor on the iPhone 12 Pro now they both have IP certification and everything which is really, really cool, but the IP certification is better on the iPhone 12 Pro. So definitely keep that in mind, but in terms of the outside that really pretty much covers it up for the most part.

Now you do have that MagSafe capability on the back of the 12 pro, which is cool, but if you use it, that's cool, if not, they both support wireless charging. Anyway. Now, in terms of the software side of things, the iPhone 10r is just not going to last as long as the iPhone 12 Pro you know if we could guess right now, but both these phones are going to be supported for quite a bit of time. It's not like tomorrow, the 12 pro or the 10 are going to be unsupported. So definitely when it comes down to the software life cycle, they're both going to be lasting for a long time, but the iPhone 12 Pro is going to be lasting longer.

If you get this phone now than on the iPhone 10r iOS updates are exactly coming out the same exact times and everything so expect. You know timely updates for sure for the time being, but definitely when it comes down to it, the 12 pro will outlast the iPhone 10r. Now, let's go ahead and do a little of a speed comparison between these phones. The iPhone 10r has that Apple A12 bionic chip inside it with three gigabytes of ram with the iPhone 12 Pro, has that Apple A14 chip inside it with six gigabytes of ram. So let's go and see which one is the faster phone between both of these okay.

Now that we're back, let me go and clear all the apps in the background and let me go and turn up the brightness on both devices too. Okay, that looks much better. Let's go and load up the app store, three two one and the iPhone 12 Pro is faster, and they have among us on the front. The iPhone 10 are a little behind, not a crazy big difference. I'm going to throw this grass in here a little, so it makes it look a little visually better and, as you can see, I mean I guess you know speed and wise and everything is going to look.

Okay, pretty much the same guys. Do you like the grass inside it be honest, I mean I can move it? If you guys want me to now about a bunch of these third party apps, we can go and get into Netflix three, two one uh. I don't really like this grass and the iPhone 12 Pro was the faster one. Animations look about the same too, but I'll test it further. When I load more apps, Quizlet 321, iPhone 12 Pro, I think, was a faster one.

I kind of blinked for a second, but they both were very close. Dropbox 321. The iPhone 10r does have a noticeable little like whatever here the iPhone 12 Pro feels perfect in terms of well a little quicker over here. Thank you. Three two one and the iPhone 12 Pro was faster.

The iPhone 10 are a little behind again, not a ginormous difference, I would say, but a noticeable one for sure. I think if you're going to compare these two with the 12 pro is definitely faster. Snake burst blocks 321 and the 12 pro is slightly faster than the iPhone 10r uh. Very close still. The iPhone 10 did glitch up a little there, but I think when you're, comparing both of them, I think they both were pretty close, but the iPhone 12 Pro is probably faster through ninja three two one iPhone 12 Pro was faster iPhone 10r a little of a different thing on the front.

I don't know what took the line, but I'll probably give the edge to the iPhone 12. Probably you're going to have to count that paper out two three two one and the iPhone 12 Pro again was the faster one. iPhone 10 are a little behind getting into some gameplay. I'm going to see they're, probably going to be about the same or more or less the same and gameplay wise yeah. When I look at the camera, they look about the same and even off camera.

They look. The same too temple run two three two one and the 12 pro was definitely flying ahead of the iPhone 10r. In this case, and maybe just maybe when it comes to these heavier intensive games, the iPhone 12 Pro, that's probably where the a14 chip probably shines the most the iPhone 10 are a little behind even clicking on the play button. Even little things like that, the iPhone 12 Pro was faster and gameplay-wise. I think they're going to be roughly about the same as I've stated before.

I don't think, there's going to be that crazy of a difference but yeah. Definitely the 12-pro is faster. There really racing three two one, and maybe the 12 pro will be faster here who knows and there's just so much awkward side. Okay, there we go the iPhone 12 Pro was the faster one and the iPhone 10 is probably going to be a little behind it. As I've stated before, maybe it'll get into the down link panel, I don't know.

Hopefully it doesn't because that'll kind of ruin it, but I can definitely tell you when it comes down to these bigger apps. The 12 pro, like I said with that a14 chip, as you can see, that was a pretty big difference and if you're trying to play a game as fast as possible, the 12 pro that was a pretty big difference in terms of the gameplay for sure for app opening. We can go and end it off with stack 321 and that in and of itself I mean I don't even have to open up this app to show you that the 12 pro is faster more times than not, and that's a pretty big deal in my opinion, when you have games like this loading, the games is one thing, but you know playing them and everything will also probably be better on the iPhone 10r on the iPhone 12 Pro. So when it comes down to it, I can definitely say the iPhone 12 Pro is the faster phone I mean. I didn't even have to do this comparison.

To tell you guys that this is a very fast phone. The 12 pro is, and there's really no reason for you to, like. You know, look for other phones in terms of performance in terms of iPhones, because the iPhone 12 Pro is definitely the faster one for sure now. The iPhone 10r did glitch up there a little when it came down to the ram management. So that's a pretty big thing to keep in mind too uh they're, both kind of looking the same here, but definitely when it comes down to the iPhone 12 Pro is the better performing device for sure.

Let's go and hit on the cameras now, as stated before, the iPhone 10r has a single camera setup. iPhone 12 pro has a triple camera setup with a LIDAR sensor, 12 megapixels, wide angle lens here. The 12 pro has the 12 megapixel wide angle, 12 megapixels, telephoto lens, then a 12 megapixel ultrawide sensor, as well as a LIDAR sensor and looking at both of these side by side. I don't really think you're going to see a huge difference when it comes down to the cameras themselves or the user interfaces. The cameras themselves are going to be a bigger.

You know difference for sure, but the user interfaces look about the same. You know as close as you can get. They both can do 4k 60 on the back camera. I think the front camera is probably where the bigger differences lie, though the iPhone 10r can only do 1080p on that front camera. The iPhone 12 Pro can do 4k 60 on that front camera, which is a huge asset for sure.

Now you still have photo mode portrait mode, all that stuff on both, but that's a pretty big difference for the front camera. Now the iPhone 10r, in my opinion, had a pretty good camera and I think the software was probably its biggest asset for sure. There wasn't really much to hate on here, and you can do portrait mode like I said you can do 4k60 still in that back camera, but I think the biggest problems that this camera you know probably relied on in were the lack of extra sensors for sure I feel like when it came down to the other cameras of that year. The iPhone 10s tennis max those had better cameras because of the extra sensors and when you look at the competition, even like the 12 pro, this one has so many more sensors than the iPhone 10r and the quality, I think, is pretty good still. If you have the 10hr, I wouldn't upgrade just because of the camera, but just know that the 12 pro is going to probably have the better camera when it comes down to it, mostly because of those extra sensors.

Now the software's improved the a14 chip, I'm sure holds a lot of value when it comes down to that increase in you know, camera quality, but I still think when it comes down to it. The iPhone 10r has a good camera. The iPhone 12 Pro's camera is probably noticeably better, and I will probably be doing a full camera comparison very, very soon. I just did a full uh battery comparison, so it's only time that before I do a full, you know camera comparison, but definitely when it comes down to both of these, the iPhone XL is a pretty good camera. The iPhone 12 Pro is the better camera when it comes down to it now, ending it off with the battery life, the iPhone 10r and the iPhone 12 Pro first of all that they kind of have like similar size batteries in a way, but I did just do a full battery comparison.

I don't know when that's dropping, but I pretty much found that the iPhone 12 Pro from my test has a better battery life than the iPhone 10r, but I will say, with iOS 14: it has taken a huge toll on battery life, so I think over time, iOS 14 will get better iPhone.10 r's battery will be better. Theoretically, the iPhone 10rs battery should be better than the iPhone 12 pros, but from my test, the 12 pro had a little better battery life than the 10r. But again I think that has a lot to do with the software in overtime. This could probably be the 12 pro. Even if this is on iOS 13, I think it could be the iPhone 12 Pro so in terms of battery that covers it up now.

To sum up this video and say answer the question: should you pick up the iPhone 12 Pro? Should you get the 10r? Should you keep the 10r? What I can tell you is that if you have all the money in the world getting the iPhone 12 Pro, obviously is the better way to go. It's the best phone, it's one of the best. It is the best iPhone right now you can pick up, and it's one of the best phones, and it's just a no-brainer. If you have all the money, then obviously get the best phone, but if you're on a budget, the iPhone 10r is a quality phone. Still, it's not that old.

It's still, you know completely relevant and there's not that much to hate on it. You have a beautiful display kind of compared to the OLED display on the iPhone 12 Pro, maybe not, but the 10rs panel is still good enough. For the most part, the camera quality is good. The phone is smooth, it's still getting software updates for a very long time, and it's 4.99. It's like half the price as the iPhone 12 Pro, and that is the biggest reason why I think the iPhone 10 like if the iPhone 10r was a thousand dollars or eight hundred dollars.

Then I don't think it would be a good deal at all. But the fact that it's 499 dollars makes this phone at that much better of a value, in my opinion, now the 12 pro with it being a thousand dollars. It feels like a thousand dollar phone. You know it has a lot of good hefts to it, and it does feel better than the iPhone 10r. But I just don't think if you have a 10r, you should go to the 12 pro and I don't think if you have like an iPhone 11, you should go to the 12 pro either.

I think the 12 pro is probably a perfect upgrade for people who have like, I think, even an iPhone 10 to the iPhone 12 Pro it's a good upgrade, but I think the iPhone 13 series is probably going to bring a ton of new improvements and everything, and I cannot wait for them to drop those, but I'll probably say I would recommend keeping your iPhone 10 or if you don't have either one of these, and you want to save even more money, probably getting a used, iPhone 10r or getting a used iPhone 11. Those things are probably going to go down below that 5.99 brand-new price tag, but even 5.99 for an iPhone 11 is good price too. So, in terms of that, that really pretty much covers it up again.
