It's about time: where is the iPhone 12?

Because of Corona, the new iPhones will come later this year, but Apple should shortly be sending out the invitations to the virtual event. It won't have much to report anymore, even the prices are probably already known.

The September event ended this year without new iPhones, Apple contented itself with an improved watch and iPad refreshments. But now it cannot be long, various sources assume that the virtual presentation of the devices will take place on October 13th. Actually, Apple only has to announce the start of sales, otherwise you already know practically everything about the new 12-series iPhones. "Apple Rumors"may have already found out prices and memory configurations.

It has long been known that Apple will be launching four more new iPhones this spring, following the iPhone SE 2. So the choice for buyers is growing.

The little one should be called iPhone 12 mini

First there are two top models again: The iPhone 12 Pro should have a 6.1-inch display, the iPhone 12 Pro Max a huge 6.7-inch screen. In addition, there will probably be two models with 6.1 and 5.4 inch panels, with the smaller version probably being called the iPhone 12 mini.

Both the simple 12 and the mini should be more simply equipped as iPhone 11 successors, but like the Pro versions have OLED displays. The Pro models may have higher refresh rates of up to 120 Hertz (Hz), but Apple will probably not go higher than 90 Hz this year. The cheaper devices will also have aluminum frames, while the Pro models are sheathed in steel.

Edged design

Since not much has changed visually with the current devices, a significantly changed design is expected for the 12 series. It is expected that it will closely resemble that of the iPhone 4 / 4S with a wide, flat metal frame. The changed design could be due to the fact that all new iPhones should be 5G-capable and the antennas can be better distributed in the flat frame.

The Pro models can in all probability snap through three different lenses like the current devices. Your lidar sensors should also support the autofocus during night shots. The simpler variants are likely to have only two rear cameras and no lidar sensors.

Prices between $ 700 and $ 1,400

As for pricing, the likelihood that Apple Rumors hit the mark is high. Because large electrical chains and mobile phone providers worldwide are now likely to prepare the sale, whose employees cannot always keep tight. If the information is correct, Apple is actually so bold again to sell smartphones with 64 gigabytes (GB) of memory. The iPhone 12 mini will cost around $ 650 in this configuration, with 128 GB 700 and with 256 GB 800 dollars.

Even the cheapest iPhone 12 for $ 750 has only 64 GB of storage. Apple reportedly wants to see $ 800 for the 128 GB version and $ 900 for the 256 GB model. The iPhone 12 duo has Apple Rumors for at least 128 GB of storage, the smaller device should start at $ 1,000, the Max at $ 1,100. The iPhone 12 Pro with 256 GB will also cost $ 1,100, while the Max in this memory variant will cost $ 1,200. And if you want a Pro model with 512 GB of flash memory, you'll have to shell out $ 1300 or $ 1400.
