The one thing that would make me happy is if the entire US lineup supports both Sub-6 and mmWave 5G instead of having to wait longer for mmWave model
Got a tip for us?

Was hoping for an upgraded refresh rate on the new screens... will have to stick to my XS max until the next release
The uk has EE the best network for 5g so how can we not get the faster one
Another thread claims he actually watched the pre-recorded event video.
If so... then I'd say he is very accurate on this one...
Telstra in Australia supports mmwave and already have a device that uses it. So hopefully we get that model in Australia. As I will be upgrading my 11 Pro Max for the new 12 Pro Max and I do have 5G in my area so keen to use it.
The 4x telephoto instead of 2x is interesting, I don't care about the ultra wide but having a 3x or 4x telephoto would help in some scenario.
Not sure a camera improvement is enough to entice me into buying 12 to replace my Xs though. I wonder about the display, if the base model is OLED it would be nice to have a better display on the Pro since there is a huge price difference.
They may differentiate with 5G capabilities, maybe more bands on the Pro, but 5G is not yet a thing here, and since we're going to be mostly at home for the next few months who cares about high speed in mobility?

Is "graphite" the new name for Space Gray 🤔
Even though it will be interesting how this plays out.
Right now it is:
SE 399 (A13)
XR 599 (A12)
11 699 (A13)
If now they have:
SE 399 (A13)
12 5.4 699 (A14)
12 6.1 799 (A14)
They could just drop the price of the 11 to 599, which would be weird, as a 6.1 phone is cheaper than a 5.4 phone, and it seems that cameras stay roughly the same. Or they'll keep the XR and lower it's price by another 50, so XR for 549 then, but it has only a single lens and 2 generations older processor.
I'm sad because my carrier, Verizon, seems to be only supporting mmWave 5G.
So no 5G for me... unless I hang out on sidewalks in major cities...
If this is true, after a decade, it's finally the end of 326ppi.

Perhaps the leak came from the person translating and captioning the launch video. I don’t think there’s any other way to get this level of detail.
Apple removed the power adapter and EarPods to save a few dollars. I simply don’t think they’re about to leave expensive and unused antenna hardware on millions of units.
Really ?
I thought the extra elements is to help correct chromatic aberration etc that sensors are more susceptible to
This is about making images sharper and less distortions and you have to work harder to maintain light as reductions can occur the more elements you add

Ever since it became clear delays were 100% happening, I made sure to plan ahead of time by purchasing Apple Gift cards to maximize cash back on credit card then have it all ready to go when pre-orders go live
The dates quoted in this article are incorrect.
The source says:
iPhone 12 mini and iPhone 12
Preorder 10/16 and 17. Launch 10/23 and 24
iPhone 12 Pro and pro max
Preorder 11/6 and 7. Launch 11/12 and 13

If you go to the website the leaker out and change from Chinese to English at the bottom he said it’s all nonsense lol
64GB base storage for 2020 phones is a SICK JOKE. I'm sure ya tiny handers will buy up the Mini, but that regular 12 at $100 (14%) up from the 11.. oleds & 1/2 assed 5G aren't that expensive. Interesting to see if the 11 stays on the market at an even more enticing reduced price.
A Chinese Weibo account going by the name "Kang" this morning posted allegedly accurate information for every product set to be announced at the upcoming Apple event on October 13, including details on the full iPhone 12 lineup.

bit disappointed there’s no 1tb but I can’t stop my 11version upgrade streak so... blue pro Max here I go!
If the dates for the Pro models are correct, a lot of us could look forward to receiving a new iPhone AND a PS5 at the same time🤯
L0vetodream absolutely knew about the MagSafe charger. This account is crazy to follow
The source also mentions that the wireless charging mechanism is renamed to “MagSafe”. Not sure how much sense that makes.
Kang made some edits to his post shortly after posting.
I had high hopes for the mini... but waiting one more month? Screw that....
