In addition to EarPods, a major accessory may be missing from the Apple iPhone 12G 5G case


Question: How does a leading phone manufacturer keep the price low on a very expensive phone? Answer: Take out some of the accessories that were once included in the box. Last month, trustworthy analyst Ming-Chi Kuo of TF International said that Apple would not include the EarPods wired headphones in the box with the iPhone 12. Apple is reportedly doing this to entice iPhone buyers to purchase one of the AirPods Bluetooth wireless models.

Apple iPhone 12 buyers may need to spend $ 63 to replace missing EarPods and charging brick

But today, According to 9to5Mac, Kuo released a new report that is disappointing and somewhat surprising if true. According to the man who knows what is served in the Apple coffee shop on a certain date a year in advance, Apple will not include a charger in the box with the iPhone 12. Instead, those who buy the phone will have to buy a brick of charge separately. Kuo’s report comes a few days later. A Twitter informant posted images of a 20W charger that he said Apple would include in the box with upcoming iPhone 12 models. Kuo says the 20W charger is legitimate, but will be sold to iPhone 12 buyers for separated. The analyst also says that Apple will continue to include a charger with its iPad tablets.

Apple iPhone 11 Pro models ship with an 18W charger. Models from iPhone 8 to iPhone 11 support fast charging but are shipped with a 5W charging brick. This forces owners of those devices to spend $ 29 for the fastest 18W charger that comes free with the iPhone 11 Pro and iPhone 11 Pro Max. Other phone manufacturers include faster chargers. For example, him Oppo Reno Ace uses a 65W fast charger to go from 0% to 100% in 35 minutes. IPhone 11 Pro models will go from 0% to 50% in approximately 30 minutes. Obviously that’s not as fast as the Reno Ace, but it’s still a noticeable 5W charging speed improvement that will bring the battery to the iPhone 11 from 0% to 20% in half an hour.

All iPhone 12 models are expected to run on the Bionic A14 chipset produced by TSMC using its 5nm process. That simply means that more transistors can fit inside. The A14 Bionic will employ 15 billion transistors compared to the 8.5 billion used by the A13 Bionic; The more transistors within a chip, the more powerful and efficient it is. The new standard models will be equipped with 4GB of memory compared to 6GB of RAM in Pro units. The new iPhone 12 phones should start with 128GB of storage, double the basic amount of storage available in the basic variants of 2019.

As for the rear camera module, there is some controversy based on a leaked CAD image. While all iPhone 12 units are expected to have wide and ultra-wide cameras, Pro models will add a 3x zoom telephoto camera. Latest models should include the LiDAR time of flight depth sensor first seen on iPad 2020 tablets. The sensor will offer improved AR capabilities and improved portrait photography. The question is whether the LiDAR sensor will also be found in the iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 Plus. Most believe that the CAD image, made for box makers, contained enough information for those companies, making the image incomplete.

We also expect Apple to increase battery capacity for upcoming models. That’s not only due to 5G support, but also to the ProMotion 120Hz refresh rate for iPhone 12 Pro phones. This means those phones will refresh their displays 120 times per second. The iPhone 12 Pro Max could have a 4400 mAh battery compared to the 3969 mAh capacity on the iPhone 11 Pro Max.

Next-generation iPhone models could be unveiled in September, as usual, the coronavirus outbreak could force Apple to delay the launch of its new phones.
