Rumors are piling up in the run-up to September. Also about the iPhone 12 a lot has already been said and written. And with four models for the 2020 iPhone there is more to tell than ever. With this article, we’ll help you out by listing the most recent and credible iPhone 12 rumors.
# 1 Four sizes: from smaller to larger Credibility: 100% The iPhone 12 series comes in four sizes, according to many reliable sources: from the more compact 5.4-inch iPhone 12 mini to the larger 6.7-inch iPhone 12 Pro Max. Apple therefore opts for a slightly smaller and larger format than in the line-up of the 2019 iPhones. To refresh your memory, these are the expected models:
In comparison, these are the current formats of the iPhone 11-serie:
# 2 Screens: all OLED Credibility: 80% This year, Apple seems to be finally relinquishing LCD for autumn devices. Apple has for the 6.1-inch iPhone XR and iPhone 11 adhered to LCD, in the form of it Liquid Retina-display. This year, Apple will switch to all iPhone 12 devices YOU ARE. OLED iPhones have several advantages, including more energy-efficient and nicer colors. While there is nothing wrong with Apple’s LCD displays, YOU ARE still a bit better.
Another rumor regarding the display is support for ProMotion. There have been several rumors about this topic recently, which contradict each other. ProMotion is a technique on the iPad Pro, where the so-called refresh rate is a lot higher. Animations are a lot smoother, which makes everything look a bit nicer and better. We also like to see this on the iPhone. If Apple succeeds in bringing this technology to the iPhone, we expect this only on the iPhone 12 Pro models.
# 3 Design: a cleaner look Credibility: 90% Apple seems to be looking closely at some previous products for the design. The iPad Pro switched to a flat-sided design in 2018, and that’s the case with the 2020 model. At the iPad Air 2020 Apple also opted for a flat design. You may also know this from the iPhone 4 and iPhone 5. It strongly seems that Apple is now also on the iPhones is going to apply. This design is loved by a lot of users, so Apple is likely to make many prospective buyers happy with it. There are already several concepts that show what this looks like in practice.
# 4 Colors: Blue and more Credibility 50% Of iPhone XR and iPhone 11 are characterized by the wide range of colors. For the successors, red seems almost certain, because we have always found that color at Apple in recent years. The new Apple Watch Series 6 is available as (PRODUCT) RED and is also available in a beautiful dark blue color. This likely provides hints for the colors of the iPhone 12 Promodels.
There have been several rumors that Apple is planning to release the iPhone 12 Pro in dark blue release, similar to the blue Apple Watch Series 6. There have also been various renders of this, as you can see below. Our earlier poll found that iCulture readers like a dark blue iPhone 12 want.
#5 Camera met LiDAR-scanner Credibility: 90% Every year Apple makes improvements for the cameras of the iPhone. We are therefore sure that this will be the case again this year, but something new will also be added. The LiDAR Scanner of the iPad Pro 2020 is probably also coming to at least the more expensive version of the iPhone 12. With the LiDAR Scanner distances and objects can be accurately measured. We also think this is a typical feature with which Apple wants to persuade people to buy the more expensive model. It provides more advanced augmented reality features.
As for the regular cameras, these will probably perform better in low light. Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo also claims that the autofocus in the iPhone 12 better and faster is becoming. That would be due to a new part in the camera. The lenses are also of higher quality.
