Everything we think we know so far


Apple is set to launch the new iPhone 12 series of smartphones tomorrow.

Apple had indicated that the launch of the iPhone 12 “will be delayed a few weeks” during the summer of early this year.

Since we’re just one day away from the big reveal, let’s take a look at everything we know about the upcoming iPhone 12 series.

From price to design to specs, everything about the iPhone 12 has been “leaked” in recent months. Here’s everything we know:


IPHONE 12 VARIANTS

One of the most prominent beliefs remains the fact that Apple could bring a fourth iPhone variant this year, the iPhone 12 Mini. The four different variants are said to come in various sizes, with the iPhone 12 Mini being the smallest of the lot. The four variants that Apple is expected to launch are: iPhone 12 Mini (5.4-inch screen), iPhone 12 (6.1-inch screen), iPhone 12 Pro (6.1-inch screen) and iPhone 12 Pro Max (6.7-inch screen) . By the way, the 6.7-inch screen, if it happens, will be the largest ever seen on an iPhone.

IPHONE 12 PRICES

The speculated price of the iPhone 12 has also been something that has aroused great interest. The iPhone 12 is said to start at a cheaper price than last year’s iPhone 11 series. Now this also takes into account reports from Apple bringing in a fourth “Mini” variant of the iPhone 12. According to a recent report, the iPhone 12 range may start from $ 699 (Rs. 47,586 per direct conversion) for the iPhone 12 Mini. . Last week’s report hinted at pricing for all four iPhone 12 variants. It said the iPhone 12 could cost $ 799 and up (Rs. 58,400 for direct conversion), and the iPhone 12 Pro will start at $ 999 ( 73,000 rupees for direct conversion). The iPhone 12 Pro Max could cost $ 1,099 and up (Rs. 80,340 for direct conversion), according to the report.

IPHONE 12 DESIGN

It has also been reported that Apple will give its iPhone 12 range a highly anticipated redesign. The company is said to be giving the new iPhone a more iPhone 4-like design with flatter sides rather than the curved design language the company has had since the iPhone 6 series.

IPHONE 12 COLORS

Late last month, there were reports that the new iPhone would come in two new color schemes. Analysts were quoted as saying at the time that the new iPhone 12 series could come in new navy blue and red colors. While a different colored iPhone isn’t a new thing, last month’s report said it may bring navy blue and red colors to its flagship models this year.

IPHONE 12 SPECIFICATIONS

Apple’s new A14 Bionic processor, along with iOS 14, are the two features of the iPhone 12 series that are true. Now, while iPhones have never been specifically rated for amounts of RAM, the iPhone 12 Pro Max can have up to 6GB of memory, rumors suggest. Storage options are programmed to vary between 64GB and 512GB in all variants. In terms of cameras, the overall setup is expected to remain similar to what the iPhone 11 range brought to the table. As a result, the iPhone 12 is said to have dual camera units, while the iPhone 12 Pro and Pro Max are expected to have triple camera units. Along with these units, the iPhone 12 Pro and iPhone 12 Pro Max are expected to get depth-sensing Lidar sensors to add new augmented reality features to the new iPhones. Last week’s report alo said that this year all Apple iPhone 12 variants will come with Apple’s Super Retina XDR display panels.

THE IPHONE 12 MAY COME WITHOUT A POWER ADAPTER

Apple isn’t shipping a power adapter with its new Apple Watch and iPad variants released in September. Apple’s announcement during its Sept. 15 event came after much speculation that the company omitted the adapter for the iPhone 12, in order to reduce plastic use and save the environment (money). Now, it is said that Apple can do the same with the iPhone 12.
