While everyone waited eagerly for the launch of the iPhone during Apple’s virtual event held on September 15, the company launched the Apple Watch Series 6 and a new iPad. Since the launch, there have been speculations around the launch of the iPhone 12. Some believe the tech giant will launch its latest edition in October.
As expected, there have been a series of leaks, providing glimpses of the new iPhone. The new iPhone is rumored to have a 5G feature and will be named as iPhone 12. Like the previously launched iPhones, this one could have variants such as iPhone 12, iPhone12 Pro & iPhone 12 Pro Max. Usually, iPhones are launched during the high-in-demand September event.
This year, due to Covid-19 and manufacturing issues, the event has been scheduled for later this year. Additionally, the iPhone 12 Series may have some significant updates since the iPhone X released.
What’s New on the iPhone 12
The 2020 iPhone series may have some significant changes for the design as well. The body part of the iPhone 12 may have a touch of metal frame similar to the one available in the iPhone 4 Series. As per rumors, there could be the latest 3D Triple lens for the camera, which is useful to calculate the depth details of an object in the room. This feature will surely upgrade the quality of photography and AR capabilities. Since connectivity has become the primary usage in handsets, Apple will be releasing its first-ever 5G supported network, allowing new devices to connect network at a speed of more than 4G LTE. Apple has been tight-lipped and conscious regarding any leaks related to the iPhone 12 series.

There are rumors that the display screen size will range from 5.4 inches to 6.7 inches. The iPhone is slated to cost somewhere around $650 or £700 or AU$ 1,200 or more. An Apple executive has earlier shared that the company is working towards reducing e-waste while making the iPhone 12 and suggests that the box won’t contain a charger for the very reason.
Some rumors state that the production of the iPhone 12 was three months behind, which could mean a significant delay. However, Apple is working towards cutting the delay.
The design of the 2020 series of the iPhone will be different from the current generations. There will be glimpses of the iPhone 4 & iPhone 5 in this one. Some say that the new Series may have some elements from iPad Pro 2020 too. According to Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, the 2020 iPhone series might have a flatter metal frame than iPhone 11 series.
However, the rear of all the models still has a count on glass with some minor modifications on the corner. As the color of the models are concerned, for the very first time, apple may come up with a Navy Blue color on its top models. There are also some reports that since the midnight green colour of iPhone 11 was a success, Apple might think of adding some new colours to this model. Although the official statement is yet to be announced, we can all expect a color series of iPhone 11 in the 2020 series. iPhone 11 series is available in Black, Green, Yellow, Purple, Red & White.
Display & Screen Size on the iPhone 12
Now let’s talk about the screen size of the iPhone 12 series. iPhone 12 series may have different sizes in comparison with iPhone 11. As per the rumors, the iPhone 12 will be available in :
- iPhone 12 with a 5.4-inch display
- iPhone 12 with a 5.4-inch display
- iPhone 12 with a 5.4-inch display
- iPhone 12 with a 5.4-inch display
In the latest models, we can also look at the non-pro model named as iPhone 12 Max. This model is made for those who don’t want to spend more but want a larger screen. There is a select update that may be coming up with a Display Zoom feature. This feature allows your phone to change the display interface’s size to match that of a smaller screen. For example, your iPhone 12 Pro Max with a 6.7-inch display can be converted into a 5.4-inch display.
Apart from the size, all the iPhone 12 models may have OLED screen tech for the first time. We have seen the iPhone 11 feature an LCD Display whereas iPhone 11 Pro features an OLED technology. Hence, we can expect Apple to stick with OLED technology. This step will move the iPhone series to the next level in terms of display. Another big rumor has come out, which is for the display at 120Hz refresh rate.
This will be the outbreak in terms of the display, as all the earlier versions support a refresh rate of 60Hz. It merely means that the new variant will be smoother in accessing applications and games.
Camera Features for iPhone 12
Furthermore, there might be a significant change to the camera too. Apple will be adding a LiDAR Scanner, just like we have observed on the iPad Pro 2020. This feature will surely improve the judgment of distances and enhance the better display of the Augmented Reality & Portrait Mode. A combination of 4 Cameras will be there to click the finest snaps, including Wide Camera, Ultra Wide Camera, Telephoto Camera & LiDAR Scanner.
Conclusion
One more question which everyone might be looking for is about Airpods. It is very unlikely that Apple will provide Airpods in the box. Now, when the iPhone 12 series comes out, the iPhone 11 Series cost will fall rapidly, as observed with earlier versions. As per the rumors, the New Series of iPhone will have so many exciting features. Now we need to wait a little bit longer than usual for the new Series.
