Apple iPhone 12: How to choose between the four new models

If you're thinking about upgrading, we're here to help you decide whether the new iPhone 12 is worth your money — and it depends on what phone you currently have. You can also pre-order the iPhone 12 Pro on Amazon with an unlimited plan from Cricket.The iPhone 12 Pro Max is similar to the iPhone 12 Pro, but in a larger form factor with the best camera system of the entire lineup, with even better optical zoom and low-light performance.As a tech reviewer for longer than a decade, I love getting to play with the latest gadgets. So if you have kids or otherwise take lots of photos, that upgrade may be worth it to you.Alternatively, if you're itching for that new-phone high but don't need the iPhone 12, consider replacing your phone's worn-out battery and grabbing a new case for a slightly fresher look and feel.If you've been holding off upgrading because you don't like the new form factors — I'm a fan of the home button and fingerprint sensor myself — the latest iPhone SE is a good alternative.
