How the iPhone 2020 will look like
iPhone 12: overview and specifications

But the transition to the design of the case, reminiscent of the iPhone 4 and 5, still took place. the new smartphones from Cupertino have really become more angular and similar, for example, to the current iPad Pro. The rest of the external changes are few. there are still dubious screen “bangs” in which the FaceID sensors are hidden, and a massive square camera module still stands out on the rear panel. Interestingly, the junior and senior models now differ in the materials of the case, or rather, the metal frame. Pro models are made of surgical stainless steel.
iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 mini received a variety of colors. From the very beginning, there were five of them. black, white, red, green and blue. Later, Apple introduced smartphones in purple casing. The design of the more premium iPhone 12 Pro and Pro Max was limited to silver, graphite, gold and “Pacific blue” colors.
Apple introduced a line of accessories for new smartphones. It all started with MagSafe fast charging cases. Then, special cardholders appeared on sale, which, through a magnet, attach a set of several bank cards or a driver’s license to the iPhone 12 case. Of course, soon such covers began to be produced by third-party manufacturers.

IPhone 12 review
Processor, memory, communications
Regardless of the version, all iPhone 12s are built on the Apple A14 Bionic platform. This 5nm processor was already shown in September on the new iPad Air, but at the presentation of smartphones it was told in more detail. According to the company, the computing and graphics performance of the A14 is 50% higher compared to “some other” smartphones. But they did not explain with which models the platform was compared.
Models iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 mini received 4 gigabytes of RAM each, and older models iPhone 12 Pro and iPhone 12 Pro Max. 6. By the standards of iOS and its optimization, this is more than enough. Miracles did not happen with the volume of the drive. the younger models all also start with 64 GB, which is frankly lacking in 2020. There are versions for 128 and 256 GB. iPhone 12 Pro and Pro Max come in 128GB, 256GB, or 512GB sizes.
At the presentation, a lot of time was devoted to the fact that the iPhone finally received support for working in fifth generation mobile networks. By default, all models are equipped with a 5G modem, but there are some nuances. Firstly, the mmWave standard, which assumes the maximum data transfer rate with a close base station, will be exclusive to the American market. such Pro versions have an additional antenna on the right side of the case. Secondly, 5G simply does not work in many countries, for example, in Russia. Therefore, the new iPhone in 2020 in our country will work with the good old LTE.

cameras and USB-C
The aforementioned third camera module will really help distinguish the 2019 iPhone from the iPhone X and XS, however, according to ZDNet, Apple will not improve the algorithms for processing the resulting images, both built-in and cloud, and as a result, the installation of an additional sensor risks not affecting improving the quality of pictures. In addition, compared to other 2019 models, the triple camera cannot be considered innovative. for example, the Nokia 9 PureView uses an array of five sensors. In other words, an updated camera is not a reason to upgrade to an iPhone 11 if you have an iPhone XS or even an iPhone X.
Goodbye Face ID
In the 2019 iPhone, Face ID may give way to Touch ID removed from the iPhone X. The rollback to 2016 and the era of iPhone 7, according to the Global Times, will not be global. Apple will release smartphones with Touch ID only for China, where Face ID is not in demand. Apple has experience in producing unique smartphones for this country. in 2018 it offered the inhabitants of the Celestial Empire an iPhone XS Max with support for two physical SIM cards.
The only thing is, Touch ID may not return as the original Home button. Apple will likely embed it directly into the display. This technology has become widespread, and it is currently present in smartphones of Chinese, Korean and Japanese companies, including the new youth Xiaomi CC9.
Fifth generation networks
Support for 5G cellular networks, the active deployment of which began in 2019, is also not planned for the iPhone 11. Perhaps Apple is guided by the fact that fifth-generation networks are not yet ubiquitous. However, this does not bother other companies: in the winter of 2019, Samsung released the flagship Galaxy S10 with 5G support, and on August 7, 2019, it may present the business smartphone Galaxy Note10 with a 5G modem.
Outdated design and lack of radical innovation
Based on the information published by the SlashLeaks portal, the 2019 iPhones will practically not differ from the 2018 Apple smartphones.The design will remain the same, except that the third module of the main camera will be added.
In recent years, a radically new smartphone in the Apple lineup was the 2017 iPhone X, which received an original at that time element of the exterior. “monobrow”, a cutout in the display. This feature was associated with the emergence of Face ID face recognition technology, which at that time did not have full analogs in any other smartphone, which made it unique.
In the same smartphone, Apple abandoned the Touch ID fingerprint scanner in favor of Face ID and a decrease in the thickness of the screen bezels. In 2018, the iPhone X evolved into the XS, XS Max and “budget” XR, which, in fact, did not differ from it in terms of unique technologies, solutions and design. In other words, in the iPhone 11 Apple uses the exterior of two years ago, including the “monobrow”, and it will completely abandon some new technologies.
The most boring smartphones
Smartphones Apple iPhone 2019 line may become the least innovative since the announcement of the first iPhone in 2007. The new generation, according to ZDNet experts, will receive a long outdated and boring design and too few innovations compared to the iPhone 2018, not enough to wake up to it interest from existing iPhone owners and those considering migrating to iOS from Android.
What will the iPhone 15 be like?
The date of the premiere of the new iPhone 11 (working title) on July 5, 2019 was not announced, but, according to tradition, Apple releases its new smartphones annually in early fall. Certain information about new gadgets, including their appearance, was known through the efforts of insiders long before the presentation.
When to expect innovation
All the most interesting innovations Apple could save for 2020. These include, first of all, the 5G chip, as well as, experts believe, the rejection of the cutout in the screen in favor of other solutions, for example, a retractable selfie camera, as implemented in Xiaomi Redmi K20 Pro.
The transition to a completely new design is also possible, and there is an indirect confirmation of this. in June 2019, Apple’s chief designer Jonathan Ive left the company. According to The Wall Street Journal, his departure is associated with professional burnout and disagreement with the policies of the current Apple CEO Tim Cook. Ive appeared in the office a couple of times a week, often missed designer meetings and practically did not participate in the development of new products.
Alleged iPhone 12 Pro Video Confirms Flat-Edge Design, Camera Configuration, and Magnetic Wireless Charging Ring
social networks:
Not so long ago, the hero of the “spy” video was the basic pre-production sample of the iPhone 12, and now a video has appeared on the network, which supposedly captures the back of the case of the older version of the iPhone 12 Pro.
Here it is! Official iPhone 12 Pro chassis leak. Confirms mostly same camera with new LiDAR placement, flat sides, magnet cutouts Smart connector-like 5G antenna? This seems to confirm the 6.1 Pro model will get LiDAR too. October can’t come soon enough. piccom / YifSX7SWxh
This video, alas, is unofficial, but it is fully consistent with previous leaks. So, with a high degree of probability, we can say that this is exactly what the back of the production iPhone 12 Pro will look like. In particular, the video confirms the return to the “rectangular” design with flat edges from the time of the iPhone 4 and 5 (the new iPad Pro tablets, as you know, have the same body shape), as well as the preservation of the recognizable square block of the main camera, but with one important change. In the block with three large holes for ordinary camera modules, one small hole on top for the flash, the smallest hole on the right for the microphone, another small hole appeared on the bottom, which is supposedly intended for a LiDAR scanner, like the iPad Pro 2020 presented in March.
In addition, in the video, you can see the ring module of the new wireless charging system with magnetic positioning, which supposedly consists of 36 magnets. Strong magnets will automatically place the smartphone in the optimal position on the charging station.
It is expected that the iPhone 12 lineup will be represented by four models: the base iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 Plus will replace the iPhone XR and iPhone 11. they will receive dual main cameras and screens with a diagonal of 5.4 and 6.1 inches, respectively; the older iPhone 12 Pro and iPhone 12 Pro Max (11 Pro and 11 Pro Max counterparts) will be able to boast a triple camera with a lidar and larger displays. 6.1 and 6.7 inches. All four devices will be built on the 5nm A14 Bionic SoC and feature OLED displays, but only Pro models will get 120Hz panels, while the base ones will be content with 60Hz screens.
History of the iPhone
Apple’s presentation will take place tomorrow, September 15, but there is a version that this will be only the first part of the show, where it will be limited only to the announcement of the new Apple Watch and iPad, and the iPhone 12 smartphones can only be presented in October.
Insiders have previously repeatedly reported that the 6.1-inch iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 Max will be released in the second half of October, while the older iPhone 12 Pro and iPhone 12 Pro Max will be delayed until November.
