After much anticipation, Apple has finally unveiled its next-generation iPhone Series. The tech giant has introduced the iPhone 12, iPhone 12 Mini, iPhone 12 Pro, and iPhone 12 Max this 2020.
The biggest update on the new iPhones is their looks. Reminiscent of the design of the iPhone 5, the iPhone 12 Series smartphones have a new flat-edged design and an edge-to-edge screen.
In particular, the iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 mini looks identical. They only differ in terms of screen size, with the base model larger in size than the mini version.
Meanwhile, the iPhone 12 Pro and Pro Max are similar in appearance. These two models also have a bigger storage offering compared to the first two mentioned. In terms of mobile photography, the Pro and Pro Max variants boast more powerful camera systems. These feature LiDAR scanner for depth and next-level Night Mode portraits. The iPhone 12 Pro Max ups the ante with a Sensor-shift OIS feature on its main camera.
The new iPhones come powered by the new Apple 14 Bionic chip and are 5G-ready. All models also arrive with MagSafe support for magnetic wireless charging and magnetic accessories compatibility.
