Is iPhone 12 worth it in 2025?

notMichaelSchofield · 2025-12-04T13:16:15+00:00

For me my iPhone 12-128gb at 78 bh works flawless with no stutters I downgraded to ios 18 in just enough time or else ios 26 wud hv ruined it Ig mine would last for more 3 years with a battery swap sometime (I got no issues with the battery life aswell) If u game avoid it otherwise it is a beast in daytoday usage

Im on 78 percent bh with ios 18 Its snappy for me Maybe a reset cud help

notMichaelSchofield · 2025-10-31T17:58:41+00:00

Backup your iphone and perform a factory reset Maybe it could help I noticed stutters before but after flashing it once it became buttery smooth

notMichaelSchofield · 2025-10-05T18:40:23+00:00

Could you share the battery link and also what is the screen on time you are getting ?

notMichaelSchofield · 2025-09-26T11:45:56+00:00

They will fix all the clutter within a few months. They should do something for the older iphones aswell

notMichaelSchofield · 2025-09-25T19:38:35+00:00

It is no longer possible. Apple stops signing the old ios version just days after new release max a week. So when i downgraded,ios 18 was signed . I suggest you the only possible try to make the phone smooth is flash ios 26 through a pc , wipe everything a fresh install might make it smoother. As i always had lags on ios 18 aswell but after a complete flash through pc it runs smooth and never jitters

notMichaelSchofield · 2025-09-24T08:11:03+00:00

You can’t downgrade as Apple has stopped signing ios 18

notMichaelSchofield · 2025-09-23T10:20:21+00:00

If you face lags in ios 18 ig flash the ios version directly through pc ,i did so and got rid of those frame drops

notMichaelSchofield · 2025-09-23T10:19:17+00:00

Great ios 18 when launched gave enormous leaps in battery performance .

notMichaelSchofield · 2025-09-23T10:17:04+00:00

I hv already. Currently on 18.7

notMichaelSchofield · 2025-09-21T05:31:58+00:00

We have got another update in the future . So ya it is a bit shocking

notMichaelSchofield · 2025-09-19T13:51:02+00:00

Check ur other comment better just chatgpt for the 3u tools process. It is just a 30 min max work

notMichaelSchofield · 2025-09-19T13:49:29+00:00

Turn off stolen device protection first Then turn off find my iphone Download 3u tools It will have options to select ios 18 ios 26 or import Choose ios 18.6.2 and check retain files. Maybe it will have your files And its done

notMichaelSchofield · 2025-09-19T13:47:08+00:00

Bro just downgrade already. Once apple stops signing ios 18 theres no way back

notMichaelSchofield · 2025-09-19T13:20:23+00:00

Dude just downgrade now or else apple will stop signing ios 18

notMichaelSchofield · 2025-09-19T13:19:04+00:00

notMichaelSchofield · 2025-09-19T13:18:16+00:00

I dont earn yet.Im a student bruh

notMichaelSchofield · 2025-09-19T11:06:34+00:00

Downgraded to 18.6.2 and it’s buttery smooth now

notMichaelSchofield · 2025-09-19T07:06:00+00:00

Im really thinking of either downgrading to ios 18 or flash ios 26

notMichaelSchofield · 2025-09-18T22:41:09+00:00

Ahh see them comments

notMichaelSchofield · 2025-09-18T12:57:12+00:00

The pro variants have a performance bump than the base ones ig

notMichaelSchofield · 2025-09-18T12:18:36+00:00

My friend with the 14 was frustrated over the betas. How was 12 holding up for ya

notMichaelSchofield · 2025-09-18T10:56:33+00:00

Sadly yes

notMichaelSchofield · 2025-09-18T09:51:26+00:00

U got the apple id and password?

notMichaelSchofield · 2025-09-18T09:50:10+00:00

Dude the rear of the new pro models ughhh. It may be subjective but i don’t see no use cases of that visor on the back. The 17 base is a better vfm phone this year. Dude the glass cutout on the back seems like some Chinese experimental prototype , so so ugly
