Latest iPhone 12 dummy units show the flat-edge look used on the iPhone 4
Mockup of 2020 Apple iPhone 12 Series
We expect Apple to unveil four models this year, including the 5.4-inch iPhone 12, the 6.1-inch iPhone 12 Max, the 6.1-inch iPhone 12 Pro, and the 6.7-inch iPhone 12 Pro Max. All four will have an AMOLED display and it now appears that the 120Hz ProMotion refresh rate originally expected on the “Pro” units this year may not be able to surface. The A14 Bionic chipset, produced by TSMC with the 5nm process node, powers the four handsets. The chip will contain 15 billion transistors up from the 8.5 billion deployed in the currently used A13 Bionic; this will make the newer component more powerful and energy efficient.
The 2020 iPhones will each support both sub-6GHz and mmWave 5G signals. The former consists of low- and mid-band 5G spectrum that travels farther than high-band spectrum and better permeate structures. However, they deliver the zippy-fast data speeds that consumers expect from the next generation of wireless connectivity. Those speeds come from mmWave spectrum.
Battery capacities of the 2020 iPhone 12 line are rumored to decrease this year
We expect 6GB of memory paired with 128GB of storage and on the 2020 iPhone 12 Pro and iPhone 12 Pro Max. The iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 Max will likely sport 4GB of memory, coupled with the same storage options offered on the expensive units.
As we noted another time with another set of previously released 2020 iPhone 12 mock-ups, the design of the camera module might not be exactly on these dummy units. This is because they are made to develop cases for the new line and as long as the recess perfectly accommodates the camera module, there is no need to record the actual number and placement of each lens on the mockup.
The current rumor requires Apple to use staggered release dates for the 2020 iPhone models with the iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 Max first to be launched. That would be followed by the release of the iPhone 12 Pro and iPhone 12 Pro Max.
