All the devices are expected to come with a smaller notch yet a more powerful FaceID.
It is also expected that the iPhones might receive an update to their design. It is rumored that Apple might be following the same boxy design as that of it’s latest iPads.
The iPhone 12 Pro and 12 Pro Max with the ProMotion Display and 120Hz Refresh Rate are still not confirmed. Since, Apple does not allow to toggle between the Refresh Rate it is not sure if they would be nerfing it down for a longer Battery Life. (Source: Front Page Tech)
Other than the usual colors, Apple is planning to launch a new Blue Color for its iPhone 12 Series.
The Cameras are going to get an upgrade both via Hardware and Software. Low Light Photography is going to get improved using the SmartHDR Technology and the LiDAR Sensor is going to help with capturing better Portrait Shots.
It is still unsure if Apple would be using USB-C in its new iPhones. But according to all the news, it seems that they will continue with the Lightning Ports.
Note: Take all this information with a grain of salt. Although the leakers and sources are very trusted, we still can’t confirm anything until Apple releases an official announcement.
The article will be updated as we receive more news on the same.
If this is how the iPhone are going to be, I personally would be looking to upgrade from my iPhone XS. For me the OLED Screen and the 5G Compatibility in the cheapest device (iPhone 12) is a big win. I also like how according to the rumors; Apple is going to start off the base model with a 128GB Storage Variant instead of 64GB.
