I am on AT&T. I’m pretty sure that 5g is not in my town yet. Anyway, the cell connection is poor in this area. So I will wait until the 5G Service is available everywhere before I get a 5G compatible phone. I was looking for the 12 to have an in screen fingerprint sensor. But being that the face ID on my 11 promax is working so excellently and there is no in screen fingerprint sensor on the 12, I will stay where I am for the time being.

I think it’s a bunch of height, especially Verizon and their MM wave which is vanishingly difficult to actually connect to. So they’re ripping you off yet again. It’s interesting that both they and AT&T are giving a little subsidy on the iPhone. They must be desperate. I think the SE2 could be very compelling. That’s especially if you like a home button.
