    Does the iPhone 12 appear on time due to the corona crisis?

    In principle, the delay in the release of the iPhone 12 related to a lung disease called Covid-19 (coronary virus) is not ruled out. Due to restricted access to production and research facilities, the production of the iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 Pro may also be reduced and even started to sell.

    It is reported that Foxconn, Apple's most important contract manufacturer, is suspending production. Foxconn's boss now contradicts this. Measures to lure workers back to their seat belts have been successful, and production is now back to normal.

    Bloomberg also reported that Apple can still proceed as planned. Nikkei clarified in an article at the end of March that measures to lure workers back to the assembly line were successful. Foxconn has more or less recovered from the corona crisis and is "maximizing utilization." By the summer of 2020, nothing can stop mass production now.

    Product lineup: Which new iPhones can you expect in 2020

    There are currently some iPhone innovation topics, all of which should be released in 2020. At this point we primarily inform you about Rumors surrounding flagship models, This is probably called iPhone 12, iPhone 12 Pro, and iPhone 12 Pro Max enter the market. In addition, rumors have continued about the iPhone SE's successor. If you are looking for information about the iPhone SE 2 (which may be displayed in two sizes), you will find it on a separate overview page. iPhone 12 models should be broken down as follows:

    • Three to four different models
    • 5.4 / 6.1 and 6.7-inch display sizes (13.72 / 15.5 / 17.0 cm)
    • OLED display only
    • All models support 5G
    • A14 SoC
    • New case design based on iPhone 4
    • 4 to 6 GB of RAM

    Design: iPhone 12 Pro Max could be big

    You may have seen it above-Rumors Apple is working on a 6.7-inch iPhone model. If Apple sticks to its previous naming, it is likely to be the iPhone 12 Pro Max. With this screen size, that's it The greatest iPhone ever.. At least one model (not the Max Max) should be based on the iPhone 4.

    This concept involves rearranging the TrueDepth system on the front. It is unclear whether this will happen.

    The rest of the product lineup should follow the design of Apple's anniversary iPhone X, launched in 2017. To be sure, Cupertino's makers will work to reduce the special gap in cameras, which is called a "gap" in English-speaking countries. This is closely related to the revision / reinvention of TrueDepth and the front camera setup responsible for Face ID. In addition to or instead of Face ID, the Apple 2020 can even install a fingerprint scanner integrated into the display. This will lead to more thorough design changes.

    Will there be "iPhone Folding" in 2020?

    Rumors remain of a foldable or foldable Apple smartphone. The competition's publications also cheered on them. For example, Samsung has not only succeeded in celebrating that the Galaxy Z Flip, Motorola and others already own foldable smartphones.

    Posts shared by Instagram (@instagram)

    Even if graphic designers and Youtubers repeatedly design corresponding concepts on computers, we do not currently have conclusive evidence that the foldable iPhone will be available as early as 2020. Apple may have to wait until next year to release it. The company is known for not following all the trends and learning from the mistakes of other manufacturers.

    iPhone 12 (Pro) possible colors

    The iPhone 11 comes in six colors, and the iPhone 11 Pro comes in four colors. We assume Apple will do the same with the iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 Pro. According to reports, at least one new iPhone with a new color scheme will be launched. We are talking about navy blue. In return, the popular midnight green should disappear. We are here to show you how the Navy iPhone 12 Pro looks.

    Camera: Will Apple install LIDAR like the iPad Pro?

    The iPhone 11 Pro generation proudly adopts the manufacturer's first triple camera setup. Will Apple go a step further with the quad camera on the iPhone 12? Of course, there are rumors about the camera installed in the iPhone 12, such as image stabilization. Like Apple, not all new iPhone models have the same main camera on the back. UBS analysts again predict dual and triple camera setups with and without additional 3D sensors.

    Obviously, Apple is very focused on the topic of augmented reality (AR). In this case, the so-called laser-based time-of-flight sensor (ToF) helps the camera system evaluate objects in the room, which sounds logical. This will help Apple create a better AR experience for users. The front camera, or more accurately the TrueDepth camera responsible for Face ID Face ID, is currently working according to this principle. Apple has installed lidar in the new iPad Pro. Therefore, the new iPhone may still be equipped with a triple camera, supplemented by such sensors.

    iPhone 12 Pro Max special camera features

    The Plus or Max version of the iPhone is usually different from the smaller iPhone. This is often the case with built-in memory, batteries, and cameras. The latter is also evident on the iPhone 12 Pro Max. Famous analyst Ming-Chi Kuo reports that Apple will provide a camera with a special image stabilizer for the largest iPhone ever.

    RAM and CPU

    Compared to the competition from the Android warehouse, the iPhone X (3 GB of memory), iPhone XS (4 GB of memory), or more recently the iPhone 11 (4 GB of memory) is quite weak in terms of RAM. At least on paper. Because in daily life, the iPhone once again shows the importance of optimal coordination of hardware and software (iOS).

    Analyst Blaine Curtis believes that the iPhone 12 Pro will now have 6 GB of RAM. Two UBS analysts continue to confirm this, and they continue to divide RAM size by model. There should also be an iPhone 12 version with only 12 GB of RAM. On the other hand, you don't need to be an analyst or insider to provide the A14 SoC for the new iPhone. The A13 Bionic successor is reportedly manufactured by contract manufacturer TSMC using a 5-nanometer process.

    A14 Bionic chipset's first benchmark results surface

    In March 2020, the benchmarking tool Geekbench already showed the performance values ​​of the processors installed in the iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 Pro. These values ​​are impressive and easily surpass the value of the iPad Pro. For the first time, an ARM-based processor designed for mobile applications can break through the 3 GHz sound barrier. You can find the power of the new iPhone here.

    Connection: Lightning or USB-C?

    We currently believe that Apple will continue to use the famous Lightning connector in 2020. However, this does slow down but crash. The company has switched to the USB-C standard for the iPad Pro and the current iPhone 11 Pro also comes with a USB-C to Lightning cable. This can already be understood as a clear hint to the future. Analysts such as Ming-Chi Kuo and Barclays have wondered that Apple will change at least one iPhone model to a USB-C connection from 2021.

    Release: When will the iPhone 12, iPhone 12 Pro, and iPhone 12 Pro Max appear?

    The next iPhone is not expected to be launched before September 2020. Apple usually launches new models in September. Manufacturers of Cupertino should continue to do so in 2020. It is rumored that a new version of the iPhone SE will be launched in the spring. Apple can sell these products under the iPhone 9 or iPhone SE 2. Enclosed is the latest iPhone model with the latest keynotes released in the past.

    • iPhone 5: Keynote Speech on September 12, 2012
    • iPhone 5S / iPhone 5C: Keynote on September 10, 2013
    • iPhone 6 / iPhone 6 Plus: Keynote on September 9, 2014
    • iPhone 6S / iPhone 6S Plus: Keynote on September 9, 2015
    • iPhone 7 / iPhone 7 Plus: Keynote on September 7, 2016
    • iPhone 8 / iPhone 8 Plus / iPhone X: Keynote on September 12, 2017
    • iPhone XS / iPhone XS Max / iPhone XR: September 12, 2018
    • iPhone 11 / iPhone 11 Pro / iPhone 11 Pro Max: September 10, 2019
    • iPhone 12th generation: September 2020 (expected)

    Price: How much does the iPhone 12 cost?

    The good news: The famous analyst Ming-Chi Kuo does not think that Apple will raise prices compared to the iPhone 11th generation. At least the iPhone 12 should not become much more "expensive". Generally, well-informed analysts believe that Apple's 5G technology increases production costs. But Apple does not necessarily pass them on to customers. Either way-the iPhone is never cheap. Category: iPhone 11 is available from Apple for about 800 Euros. You have to pay 1,150 euros for the iPhone 11 Pro. The iPhone 11 Pro Max costs € 1,250. The price of iPhone 12, iPhone 12 Pro and iPhone 12 Pro Max will also be in a comparable range.
