According to analysts at Wedbush, the next-generation iPhone lineup, slated for release in this year 2021, will feature for the first time a maximum storage option of 1TB, this is almost twice as much as the 512 GB which are available today on the iPhone 12. This information had already been announced in January by another group, Front Page Tech, which in view of the evolution of storage capacities on iPhones in recent years, he expects the latter to evolve with the next generation of iPhones.
When it comes to iOS devices, Apple has currently only offered 1TB of storage on its iPad Pro tablets. In the world of smartphones, Apple is a little behind in this area, the 1TB milestone having been crossed by several of Apple’s competitors, including Samsung, with the Galaxy S10, almost two years ago.
The 2021 iPhones are expected to launch in the fall for the start of the school year, as is generally the case with Apple. If the latter should not bring great revolutions, they could benefit from several small improvements, especially on the ultra-wide-angle photo sensor. Other rumors, which are to be taken with more precautions also speak ofa return of Touch ID with the implementation of a fingerprint recognition system under the screen, or a screen refresh rate of 120 Hz.
While waiting for the iPhone of 2021, the iPhone 12 does the job
According to analysts at Wedbush, the iPhone 12 should still sell very well this year. They expect 61 million sales for the next March quarter and more than 40 million for the summer, record figures for an Apple phone. We would have to go back to the iPhone 6 to find traces of such a success for an iPhone.
