Last year’s iPhone 11, due to its relatively low price, made a huge contribution to Apple in terms of shipments. For this year, Apple obviously wants to continue the success of the previous generation, so they are not accidentally using the familiar “recipe” in the newly launched iPhone 12. First of all, in terms of appearance, the general change of the iPhone 12 from the previous generation cannot be considered great, the fringed screen on the front and the rounded rectangular camera on the back remain. The main difference in design is the introduction of a flat midframe similar to the iPad Pro, so from the side it looks like a tribute to the iPhone 5. Of course, it also works to improve 5G reception. In addition, there is a new super magnetic glass cover developed jointly with Corning, which claims to provide four times the anti-drop performance of the past.
Like the iPhone 11, the iPhone 12 also offers a host of color scheme options – you can choose from black, white, red, blue, and green. However, compared to the previous generation, the body of the new machine is 11% thinner, 16% lighter and 15% smaller overall (specifically, it is 7.4mm thick and weighs 162 g). One of the biggest reasons for this is that Apple has finally introduced an OLED display in the iPhone 12. Although its size is still 6.1 inches like the iPhone 11 and XR, the higher-end Super Retina XDR display should offer better. display effects.
As mentioned at the beginning, the iPhone 12 is one of Apple’s first 5G phones. It is applicable to sub-6 5G in most regions of the world, and support for Verizon’s millimeter wave 5G network in the United States will also be added. In the key part of the processor, the iPhone 12 does not accidentally use the A14 bionic chip that was first launched in the new iPad Air not so long ago. It is based on the 5nm process and has a total of 2 high-performance CPU cores and 4 low-power GPU cores, as well as 4 GPU cores. Compared to the previous generation processor, its performance improves by almost 15% and it can save around 30% of power consumption. In order to highlight the advantages of the new machine in terms of performance and connection speed, Apple also announced that the new “LoL” mobile game “League of Legends: Wild Rift” will land on the iOS platform.
In the shooting part, the iPhone 12 uses a 12MP rear dual camera combination. The main camera is equipped with a 7P f / 1.6 lens, which equates to a 26mm focal length, and has optical shock resistance. The other is an ultra-wide-angle camera with a 5P lens with f / 2.4 aperture, equivalent to a 13mm focal length and a 120-degree field of view. According to the official release, the low-light shooting capability of the iPhone 12 is 27% more powerful than the previous generation, and a new night time-lapse shooting function has been added. It is worth mentioning that the night mode is now also available on ultra wide angle and selfie cameras.
As rumored, Apple’s classic MagSafe also appeared on the iPhone 12. Simply put, it’s a bit like a great Apple Watch charger, but with the mobile phone, Apple just created a different game. First of all, it has increased the wireless charging power to a maximum of 15W (still 7.5W via Qi). In addition, Apple has specially created mobile phone cases, card holders and new charging accessories for the new machine because of the magnetic attraction characteristics. One of the most interesting is the foldable wireless charging base that can charge both the iPhone and the Apple Watch. It seems very easy to carry.
Finally, for environmental protection considerations, the iPhone 12 also follows in the footsteps of the Apple Watch and will not continue to provide a charger in the package, and the Lightning headphones will also be removed. As a result, the packaging boxes for new products have also gotten smaller, which is expected to further improve Apple’s shipping efficiency. In addition, this packaging will also use 100% recycled materials for the first time, according to Apple’s estimates, the changes they made to the iPhone 12 should have the equivalent of reducing 450,000 cars. However, what people were not expecting is that the iPhone 12 will come standard with a USB-C to Lightning fast charging cable, which has never been seen in the past.
Lastly, let’s talk about the launch information. The iPhone 12 will be available for pre-sale starting on October 16 and will be officially launched on the 23rd. It will provide three versions of capacity of 64GB, 128GB and 256GB. The price in China, Hong Kong and Taiwan is 6,299 RMB. From 6,799 Hong Kong dollars and 26,900 Taiwan dollars.
