This year’s iPhone 12 is rumored to get a number of upgrades, and now we have some more details about the handset.
Back in November, we heard a rumor that this year’s iPhones would come with thinner displays. These rumors have now resurfaced, adding more excitement and anticipation for the upcoming release.
Thinner and More Efficient Displays
According to a recent report by Korean site The Elec, LG will be supplying these new displays for this year’s iPhones. The new displays are expected to be significantly thinner, which could contribute to a sleeker and more modern design. This change is not just about aesthetics; thinner displays can also lead to a lighter device, making it more comfortable to hold and use.
As well as being thinner, these displays will also be more efficient. This efficiency should translate to longer battery life on the handsets, a feature that is always in high demand among smartphone users. The improved efficiency is likely due to advancements in OLED technology, which LG has been pioneering. OLED displays are known for their vibrant colors and deep blacks, which should make the iPhone 12’s screen even more stunning.
Enhanced Battery and Processor
We also heard previously that this year’s iPhone processor would be made using the 5Nm process, which also means the processor will be more efficient. The 5Nm process allows for more transistors to be packed into the same space, leading to better performance and lower power consumption. This could result in faster processing speeds and smoother multitasking, enhancing the overall user experience.
The handsets are also rumored to come with larger batteries than the current handsets. Larger batteries combined with more efficient displays and processors could mean significantly longer usage times between charges. This is particularly beneficial for power users who rely on their phones for work, entertainment, and communication throughout the day.
Design and Camera Upgrades
Apple is rumored to either ditch the notch completely on this year’s iPhone 12 or have a much smaller notch. The notch, which houses the front-facing camera and Face ID sensors, has been a point of contention for some users. A smaller or non-existent notch would provide a more immersive viewing experience and a cleaner look.
The handsets are also expected to get updated cameras. While specific details about the camera upgrades are still under wraps, Apple has consistently improved its camera technology with each new iPhone release. We can expect enhancements in low-light performance, higher resolution sensors, and possibly new features like improved optical zoom or advanced computational photography capabilities.
Additional Features and Launch Date
In addition to the aforementioned upgrades, the iPhone 12 is likely to come with a range of other improvements. These could include better water and dust resistance, faster wireless charging, and possibly even support for 5G networks. 5G support would be a significant addition, as it promises faster download and upload speeds, lower latency, and a more reliable connection.
The 2020 iPhones are expected to launch in September 2020. As always, Apple is likely to hold a special event to unveil the new devices, where they will provide detailed information about all the new features and improvements. As soon as we get some more details about the handsets, we will let you guys know.
