Why did Apple already released the The biggest iPhone 12 update? Because now we know that it will not be the most surprising change that Apple makes in its new iPhone.

Thanks to a burst of new leaksWe now know that Apple will make its first significant external design changes to this flagship iPhone from iPhone X in 2017. And these changes have taken shape, thanks to the popular rendering artist. Jonas Daehnert (also known as @PhoneDesigner).

In the images above and below, Daehnert has unveiled the iPad Pro / iPhone 5-inspired chassis alternations Apple will make with the iPhone 12. A return to these sharper, flatter angles has been on the fans’ wish list. iPhone for years (including the high profile) and in 2020 Apple is finally listening. It will be able to detect the iPhone 12 from a distance, something that does not happen often given that Apple adhered to the design of the iPhone 6 for four generations and the iPhone X has lasted three.

In addition, Daehnert has beautifully unveiled the new rear camera setup consisting of improved triple cameras, similar to those of the iPhone 11 Pro and Pro Max, with fourth place taken by Apple, which can change the game. (and now official) LiDAR sensor. This will offer long-range 3D mapping of the surrounding environment, which has massive implications for augmented reality applications. The first demos look impressive.

My only concern with the Daehnert images? I understand that the reduced notch on the front of the iPhone (inspired by recent leaks from EverythingApplePro) is not correct and Apple will have a notch very similar to what we have seen in the last three generations of iPhone (Daehnert agrees) In short: reducing Face ID is difficult. Furthermore, the charging port, which could be mistaken for USB-C, is also expected to be Lightning once again. This could be a deciding factor for some.

That said, what you can’t see about the iPhone 12 in these images is almost as important as what you can because internally Apple is also sounding the changes. The new Apple A14 chipset will occupy many of the headlines with MacBook Pro grade performancewhile OLED panels will have ProMotion capabilities (possibly as fast as 120Hz) and there’s multiple new screen sizes. 5G (the full version) is also compatible across the range.

As impressive as the iPhone 12 looks, that’s just one drawback: Apple has another iPhone 2020 that I think will be the The smartest purchase you can make this year.
