iPhone 12 VS iPhone 13 in 2023
Go for 13. Believe me you won’t regret. 13 has a very great battery life and I easily get 7-8hrs of screen on time on a single charge of 90% to 20%. More on reddit.com

Should I get the iPhone 13 or iPhone 12 Pro
The screens of the phones are almost identical, except the 13 has a smaller notch. The speed is basically the same, the 13 is using the newer A15 chip (vs the A14 in the 12Pro) however, the 12 Pro has an extra 2GB of ram so it kinda balances out. The main camera of the 13 is better, but the 12Pro has a telephoto camera so zoom shots are MUCH better. The Selfie camera and ultrawide are the same (to my knowledge) and the 12Pro has a LiDAR scanner for more accurate portrait mode and supposedly 6x faster lowlight autofocus. The 13 also has better battery. tldr; do you care about a better main camera and battery life or a better overall camera system (due to LiDAR and a telephoto) and a more premium looking design.

r/iPhone13 on Reddit: iPhone 12 VS iPhone 13 in 2023
May 4, 2023 -

The 12 is aloooot cheaper than the 13 (buying used) but I've heard on the internet, and from friends who have the 12, that battery isn't that great. So I could buy the 12 with a magsafe battery pack or just the 13. However, with the magsafe battery the 12 is only 65 (USD) cheaper than the 13. Should I just spend the extra money and go for the 13?

November 1, 2018 - Battery life is better than the 11, so expect around 5-6 hours of screen-on-time with the 12, it also has the more efficient A14 Bionic chipset. This phones cameras are also improved, it has even more detailed shots in daylight and at night-time. It has Dolby Vision for video recording, blowing most Android mid-rangers out of the water in the video-department. Performance is nearly perfect with the A14 Bionic chipset.
