The 2020 iPhone refresh is still good 2
months away but the rumors and leaks keep coming and the latest one is of the
entry-level iPhone 12’s 5.4-inch LCD. It comes from reliable Chinese tipster
DigitalChatStation and gives us a relative size for this year’s most affordable
iPhone. The notch is still present and appears to have unchanged dimensions
compared to the current iPhone 11 series though the phone’s footprint will be
similar to the iPhone SE (2020).
So far we know the entry-level iPhone 12
is expected to come with a 2,227mAh battery. In addition, rumors suggest it
will arrive in both LTE and 5G trims with the base LTE version starting at US$ 549. It will likely feature a dual-camera setup similar to the iPhone 11 and a
flat-edged frame like the rest of the iPhone 12 series.
The iPhone 12 lineup is expected to use
Semco and Sunny Optical lenses which are touted to deliver better overall
performance and improved autofocus. According to the same leak, the first
iPhones with periscope telephoto sensors are expected to come in 2022. The
iPhone 12 series will be unveiled on September 8.
