Don’t consider Apple’s latest iPhones for the superfast 5G network connection, but for the best design in years and a great set of cameras, writes JoannaStern
Let’s start with the good news: The iPhone 12,, is indeed the fastest 5G smartphone. The speeds will knock your masks off, as we say in 2020.
Now the bad news: To see those speeds, you need to move really, really slowly. After locating your carrier’s high-speed tower, stand right next to it, tap download, then freeze. Despite being marketed as our technological savior, 5G—the next generation of cellular connectivity—is not a killer feature for the new iPhone 12 models. At least not in the U.S., not yet.. Just persuade the marketing department at MetLife Stadium—home of New York’s football teams and lots of Verizon high-speed 5G antennas—to let you work on the field. Just bring a power pack because 5G is a battery drain.
It’s best to think of 5G as an invisible feature—something that might one day come in handy. What makes this the best iPhone upgrade in years are a fabulous-to-hold design and substantial camera improvements.
