iPhone 12 lineup, as the first 5G iPhone series, has finally arrived. Except for 5G, it comes with a number of other improvements, such as the new Ceramic Shield front cover, a new design with flat, smooth edges, and more. How about the ancient feature, IR blaster? It hasn’t ever appeared on iPhone, how about this time? Or if there is a new component that enables to use iPhone 12 as a remote?
Does iPhone 12/ 12 Pro/ 12 Mini have an IR blaster?
Again, IR blaster doesn’t appear on iPhone 12 lineup. As more and more smartphones abandoned IR blasters on their flagship phones, accept or not, we knew that we are entering an era in which no necessary to have IR blasters on smartphones. People start to use voice commands or Apps to control home devices. Say goodbye to old fashion IR blaster and save the space inside phones for more creative functions. For me, it’s a great deal.
How to use 12/ 12 Pro/ 12 Mini as a TV remote?
When you can’t find the TV remote, you may miss IR blaster again. Stop thinking about it. With the right App, you can turn your iPhone 12 into a remoter for your smart TV. However, if your TV is an old, non-Wi-Fi model, it won’t work. Because it requires that your TV and iPhone be connected to the same Wi-Fi connection. This is how the signal is communicated. There are a variety of universal remote apps garnering good reviews available on the App Store, such as AnyMote, Remotie, and Universal Remote TV Smart. But you can only choose to buy an IR dongle that enables iPhone to control your non-WiFi TV.
