Various iPhone 12 sizes

First, the physical size of the phone. Mobile phone industry analysts suggest There will be four iterations of the phone, the smallest being the new 5.4 inches IPhone 12 mini. Then there are the two base models, the iPhone 12 and 12 Pro, both of which are expected to be 6.1 inches, which makes them slightly larger than the current model. IPhone 11 Pro 5.8 inches.

Finally, there’s a big phone, the iPhone 12 Pro Max. With the radiated screen size of 6.7 inches, you’ll need a very large pocket to keep this beast in comfort.

Physical design, cameras and notch

Various rumors have indicated an update to the iPhone 12’s metal exterior, which will feature a flat beveled metal design, much like the bezels seen on the recent iPad Pro. The PhoneArena mockup, above, shows the potential look and is one that I’m very keen on. The model also shows a possible fourth lens in the phone’s rear camera array – which will be a lidar sensor, which will provide more accurate depth information to improve the augmented reality functions.

The flat design will help Apple preserve the physical size of the phone, narrowing those edges and allowing the screen to fill more of the body. It is also rumored that the notch on the front of the screen that houses the selfie camera has been downsized, although it is unlikely to completely disappear in this generation of phones.

What we will not see for sure – and there have been no leaks to the contrary – is a foldable phone from Apple in 2020. It remains to be seen if the company has launched a foldable device, but for now its content seems to see just how popular Samsung’s foldable devices are. Motorola and Huawei before they do their job.

New blue color

Apple is rumored to be preparing a new dark blue color for the new generation iPhone 12, and it will probably replace the green model launched with iPhone 11. It’s up to date – it’s the Pantone color of 2020 – and I think looks pretty smart in a mockup of EverythingApplePro, as Described above.
