What do you do when the AirPower design you shared with the public causes overheating and won’t allow for the phone to be placed on any part of the mat, and you’re embarrassed because the product you publicly announced never launched? You leverage a magnet-based design to drive the iPhone toward a single position on the mat, and you rebrand AirPower as MagSafe, a beloved prior product design. Really, really smart, Apple.
Airpower is rebranded as magsafe because they have improved many things in it like placing magnets into it for better grip of iphones on wireless charger, i dont find anything wrong in it, atleast we are getting improved and refined product from apple after 3 years instead of faulty airpower, apple thinks best for their customers by giving them perfect product, not like other chinese brands who just give you latest innovation in your hands without any proper testings and later on customer loose their hard earned money and suffer a lot.
Tim Cook has not done a one more thing since 2017 and the iPhone X which introduced the full screen and notch. I don’t see it coming tomorrow.

Earliest iPhone 12 Rumors - A Look Back
It's easy to forget, but iPhone 12 rumors have been circulating for almost two years now. The earliest buzz came in late 2018, while concrete details of the specific form factors first came out as early as 16 months ago.
Many of the early rumors have actually held up and matches up with what is still expected on Tuesday.
- No 5G until the 2020 iPhones (December 2018)
- 2020 iPhone to be Full OLED Lineup (January 2019)
- 5.4", 6.1", and 6.7" sizes for 2020 iPhones (June 2019)
- 2020 iPhones to Feature Metal Design Like iPhone 4 (September 2019)
Meanwhile, rumors for the 2021 iPhones have already been circulating. Here are some early rumors but we're sure to hear more as Apple starts ramping up suppliers for the next iPhone:

First iPhone for me since the 7 plus... I'm ready to come back baby! iPhone has always been about optimization and "experience" over hardware for me. I went to Android years ago because of "hardware" and I swear I really miss all the little things that Apple just does. T-Minus 13 hours!
6.7 inch vibrator ?As a big man (bodybuilder) with giant hands, I’m actually pretty excited about the 5.4 iPhone 12.
Finally a phone that does not have the size of an adult toy
LOL pretty sure I saw a video from EverythingApplePro showing off iPhone 13 mock-ups.
Good question. I think Apple has been getting away from that for years now. But if there was ‘one more thing‘, maybe the studio headphones or Airtags, It’ll probably be an accessory that they may announce, but it’s hard to say how they handle this, given it is entirely digital.
Not sure I can do work tomorrow and watch the event at 4 am. Looking forward to reading about it over my morning coffee.
I hope they keep midnight green. I'll be a bit disappointed if they don't.

Yes but notch size is same. ?
I know but almost accurate device design rumors will begin from next month for sure.
I would love to preorder the 12 Pro Max this Friday, even if it don’t launch a month out.
This thread from April 2nd 2019 regarding a 5.42" full screen iPhone was I think the moment I finally engaged again in iPhone rumours, previously consigning myself to the thought that I would have to use an iPhone SE for the rest of my life ?
Maybe people ignored it because well ... DigiTimes

Image at head is wrong - the tag line had been updated to Fast approaching before this item was posted.
Read the two together:
Hi speed fast approaching.
This could be pointing at one or more of:
Faster processor - A14
Faster memory - LPDDR5
Faster storage
Faster charging - especially wireless
Faster wifi
Faster cellular transmissions - 5G but possibly also improvements to 4G
Faster facial recognition
Faster camera lenses - lower f all round?
Faster focussing
Faster video frame rates
Faster delivery - from Apple stores?
