iPhone 12 Wrong screen scale

Hello dear community,


i would like to describe a topic that i noticed in the first second of using my new iPhone 12 Pro.

I think that the screen scaling went wrong here.

In my opinion the screen content of a 5.8" screen of an iPhone 11 Pro / XS / X is simply upscaled.

Unfortunately, this leads to the fact that in comparison to an OLD iPhone 11 / XR much less content is displayed. So there is no benefit from the new large screen in the Pro series, but simply upscaled the 5,8" screen. So with the brand new iPhone there is less content to see compared to an old iPhone 11 / XR. Unfortunately this even directly affects Apple's own apps, the hole iOS System, as well as 3rd party apps.

But there are also exceptions. So the displayed content is the same within the Weather Pro App.

For a better understanding, have a look at the attached comparisons of the two iPhones.

I hope Apple will fix this yet. Otherwise I would find it very mysterious and for me it is simply a huge mistake.


Greetings

Aztec
