If this new iMac doesn't look like an iPad Pro then I am going to completely lose my s**t. Something like this...

Resolutions and Features of All-OLED iPhone 12 Lineup Detailed in New Report

Apple's upcoming iPhones will all use flexible OLEDs sourced from either Samsung, BOE, and LG Display, with some new features like 10-bit color...
www.macrumors.com www.macrumors.com
5.4-inch iPhone 12

Young says that the iPhone 12 will feature a flexible OLED display from Samsung Display, with Y-OCTA integrated touch. Y-OCTA is Samsung flexible display technology where the touch sensor is placed directly on the OLED panel without the need for a separate touch layer.

The 5.4-inch iPhone will feature a 2340 x 1080 resolution and 475 PPI.

6.1-inch iPhone 12 Max

The 6.1-inch "iPhone 12 Max" as Young calls it is expected to feature a flexible OLED sourced from BOE and LG Display with an add-on touch sensor and a resolution of 2532 x 1170 and 460 PPI.

6.1-inch iPhone 12 Pro

The higher-end Pro version of the 6.1-inch iPhone coming in 2020 will feature a Samsung Display flexible OLED, and Young says it will be one of the first smartphones with 10-bits of color, for more vibrant, true-to-life colors and a richer variety of color gradations.

The 6.1-inch iPhone 12 Pro is not expected to have Y-OCTA technology and it will feature the same resolution as the 6.1-inch iPhone 12 at 2532 x 1170 and 460 PPI.

Young says that Apple may be bringing extreme dynamic range (XDR) to its iPhone lineup, which is specified as 1,000 nits of full screen brightness and 1,600 nits of peak brightness. Samsung displays can't hit this level, though, and thus if Apple does use XDR, XDR specifications will need to be tweaked.

Young also reiterates details he's previously sharedabout rumors suggesting Apple will bring 120Hz ProMotion displays to the iPhone 12 lineup.

Apple's iPhone 12 is not expected to use low-power LTPO technology, a feature Young believes is necessary for a fully functional 120Hz display given the power saving capabilities of LTPO technology.

Without LTPO, 120Hz is still possible, but it could be limited to non-native resolutions or it will be a significant power drain.

6.7-inch iPhone 12 Pro Max

The largest iPhone 12 Pro model that Apple plans to release in 2020 will feature a 6.68-inch display with a resolution of 2778 x 1284 at 458 PPI.

Young believes this model will have Y-OCTA support, 10-bit color, and will be XDR capable. Like the iPhone 12 Pro, it could also have a 120Hz refresh rate, but again, without LTPO.

At this point I'm not sure if I'd go for the 6.1 or the 6.7". My wife has the 6.1" XR and it's OK, but I think I'd prefer the 6.7" if it's not too awkward. I find my 5.5" iPhone 7 Plus a bit awkwardly large, but it's manageable. The 6.5" iPhone 11 Pro Max is roughly the same size in terms of height and width, but the 6.7" would likely be slightly bigger, unless Apple somehow magically can reduce the bezel size even more.

The thing about the 6.1" XR is that it's pretty big too, but perhaps it doesn't have to be. If they can reduce the bezel size and thickness, then that would make the 6.1" more enticing than it currently is (esp. since it will be going OLED with a noticeably higher pixel density).

i agree, i'd prefer not to go any bigger than the current pro size. i'm hoping that what sits in your hand will be a bit smaller than the current non pro model, due to the actual design of the phone(possible (yet)smaller bezels)...

Yea I hope they can do the same for the Pro Max and keep the body size close to the same, or I may actually go down to the regular Pro. Just hope they stick with not putting some unique feature on the Max model.

The market is vast and has matured. It is so well established and the customer base is very secure. Continuing with one or two like previous years would be like BMW having one or two models. BMW would start to be seen as a niche, elite curiosity instead of the big player it is. (BTW, Tesla really needs more than three at this point)

They're working on the Y. So it's the S3XY lineup lol. Plus the "cybertruck".

Toss up between the 5.4 inch low-end model and the 6.1 inch high end model for me. I miss a smaller form factor, but I’d be trading off features for it.

For testing. I imagine it’s easier to test a new phone on a stable firmware than one that’s in beta, it’s probably still in alpha at this point.

Yeah, that's the problem, especially if the regular sized "Pro" model has 3x optical zoom (wish it was 5x). I use zoom vastly more than ultra-wide but would like the smaller form factor.

couldn't agree more. i hate when they try to upsell that way. i'm not getting the max, because i don't want my phone to be that big, not because i'm trying to save money)

i've already come to terms that my(future) 12 pro may get to be the size of the 11, but i would absolutely love if it didn't :))

Are you using your phone more or less now that you're WFH?

I've been using my phone a lot more. It got to the point where my hand was starting to hurt from holding my 8 Plus so much that I traded it in and got the new SE. Very happy with that decision so far. I was initially bummed about having to give up the telephoto lens but then I thought "not like I have many reasons to take pics since I'm not traveling or going out much thanks to corona."
 
I wonder if the non-pro 6.1" will be the same size as the pro 6.1" or will Apple go the "XR" route with bigger bezels and overall larger footprint to keep the Pro's looking and feeling more expensive.

The performance of a new chip will help with responsiveness, but also with using all the non-video apps, especially games. There are also the advantages of the latest HDMI 2.1 specification if Apple adopt that, such as high frame rates, variable refresh rates, eARC (HDMI 2.0b, but I think Apple TV does not have that either), and low lag features that will be good for gaming.
Click to expand...
Valid points. I find the general responsiveness pretty good already. My issues are more software than hardware, but I can totally see how eARC and HDMI 2.1 would be beneficial. I'd been reading up on HDMI 2.1 (planning to buy a new TV in the next year or so) and it seems like manufacturers can label their devices as HDMI 2.1 even if they only implement a few of the aspects and not others. Hopefully that would get cleared up soon.
