The expectation is that the new iPhone 13 to be launched worldwide in four months, more precisely in September – if the Apple maintain its traditional release schedule. So it will be worth investing now R $ 6,999 (price of the cheapest model) just to have a iPhone 12 purple or is it better save money to invest in the expected new line?
IPhones in new color have already started to be sold in Brazil. The new option is only available for iPhones 12 e iPhones 12 Mini, and reaches the Brazilian market after six months of launching the line no country.
First, it should be noted that this is not the first time that Apple has launched a purple device. Although it has a different shade, more drawn to a light lavender tone, this was already one of the six colors available in the iPhone 11. The difference now is that instead of lavender, the purple of the iPhones 12 and 12 Mini is stronger, like lilac.
It joins the other five already available (white, black, blue, green and red). You iPhone 12 Pro you iPhone 12 Pro Max did not receive the new coloring.
Despite being new to line 12, the new iPhone purple is nothing different from the brothers in the line:
- It has exactly the same price as the other colors: The cheapest 12 Mini (with 64 GB of internal memory) is leaving for R $ 6,999 on the Apple website in Brazil;
- Comes with only one cable USB-C for Lightning, that is, without headphones or plug charger in the box;
- It has the same technical specifications: flat aluminum edges (purple back); IP68 certified for dust and water resistance; support to 5G; screen You are covered with ceramic shield;
- It has the same processor A14 Bionic, iOS 14 and the same cameras the 12 and 12 Mini;
- Supports MagSafe wireless charging and accessories.
Buy or not?
Six months after the launch of the line, if you, an Apple fan, haven’t bought the new one yet iPhone and always wanted to have one cell with a different color, this is your chance to purchase a top-of-the-line device with the most modern ever produced by Apple and still in the shade of your dreams.
But you need to be the type of consumer who doesn’t mind having the latest model of all – Apple devices tend to have a long life supported for a few years, a recent operating system and security updates.
