iPhone 12 specifications, design, and more: here’s everything we know so far:
iPhone 12 series display

Apple will reportedly phase out LCD panels from its lineup with the iPhone 12 series. Even the most affordable model, which presently has LCD panel, will likely have an OLED screen. The latest report has further added that Apple will outsource OLED panels from Samsung electronics. While the handset is expected to sport a 5.42-inch display, the Pro and Max models will reportedly have 6.06-inch and 6.67-inch screens. At least one, if not all, of the 2020 models could come with a 120Hz refresh rate display, which may be marketed by Apple as ‘ProMotion’ display, instead of 60Hz. Reports are that users would be able to switch the refresh rate to 60Hz if they prefer.Renowned tipster Ben Geskin has shared a rendition of next year’s biggest iPhone – believed to be the iPhone 12 Pro Max – that has no notch or cut-out whatsoever. Apple is expected to reposition the front camera and Face ID tech, placed inside the slim bezel atop the display. He further added that the iPhone 12 Pro Max will sport a 6.7-inch display, which is the biggest ever in the lineup.

A new report, meanwhile, has claimed that Apple will launch as many as four variants in the iPhone 12 series. Each model of the iPhone 12 series will be 5G ready and feature what is being billed as a “rear 3D sensing system” and “motion control.


iPhone 12 Touch ID

Another highlight of the upcoming iPhone 2020 lineup will be fingerprint scanner (fingers crossed). According to the rumour mill, the iPhone 12 lineup may debut with the much-awaited in-display fingerprint scanner for biometrics. The scanner will be placed underneath the display, just like any other Android phones out there, and will be accessible across the screen. The Cupertino-based firm is reportedly planning to use Qualcomm’s new ultrasonic fingerprint scanner in its iPhones next year.

It’s further being said that Apple is apparently working on a new Face ID prototypes that leverage on the new optics. It remains to be seen whether the upcoming iPhones will have both Face ID and new on-screen Touch ID or just one of them?

The iPhone 12 series is tipped to feature a new stabilisation technology instead of traditional optical image stabilisation. The technology, which is currently used in several high-end cameras, is said to further reduce blur in images and improve the overall image quality. Apart from this, rumours are rife that Apple may introduce a quad-rear camera setup with its next-gen flagship the iPhone 12 Pro. The sensor details remain vague at the moment.

Ming-Chi Kuo, meanwhile, claims that the handsets will feature a 3D Time-of-Flight sensor that is expected to improve the photo quality as well as introduce new augmented reality features.
