Oh yeah!!! Totally forgot about the redesign. Yeah, I guess that would necessitate the name change from 11 to 12Also the new re-designSquare edges. Major hardware upgrade.
Hmm...OK, well I have the latest iPad Pro and I honestly can’t tell the difference between it and the previous model that didn’t have ProMotion. But maybe that’s just me. I’ve never had an issue with UI smoothness on iOS.
This reminds me of all the 1080p/4K discussions when most people aren’t looking at their iPhone thinking god the display is awful.
60hz in 2020 for £1100+ is rather awful i must say....
If all these end up true, then I will gladly stay with my 11 Pro. I couldn't care less about 5G and squared corners in the design. The rest are the usual incremental upgrades we get every year (camera and SoC).
ProMotion, the iPad has it. It's marketed as a feature and creates buttery smooth animations.
I'm not leaving the house until there's a viable vaccine that a large portion of the world's population actually uses so.....no need for a new phone for quite a long time. I can invest the $20,000 I'll save on the 10" iPhone Super Pro Max 1TB sub-6GHz-mmwave plus zero plus one max submm Pro One zero LIDAR iPhone.
It really isn’t, it’s a great feature and once you are used to 120hz you can’t go back to 60hz. For the price As well no phone should be on 60hz.
Not sure what the freaking big deal with 120hz on the phone just because Android has it?
Very mature. Sad that you are disappointing and you will not get the iphone 12
It may drain it quicker but my note ultra still lasts all day on 120hz and this is with exynos.
I have the 2017 iPad Pro, I think it has pro motion, but personally I can’t tell the difference between it and my iPhone 11 Pro Max. That’s not to say it won’t be nice, it’s just that outside of this forum and tech enthusiast, most people don’t care.
I think its because Apple lead the way in the mobile world with the mass production of ipad pro 4-5 years ago, not because android world has it, few android phones has dynamic refresh rateNot sure what the freaking big deal with 120hz on the phone just because Android has it?
Again, if you look close/try them...a promotion is a nice tech for the big display
An 6" promotion is less notable than an 8" for example
Same on ipads...the 12.9" is more immersive than the 11" but, but that doesnt mean iphone should not have this tech...its a bless of smoothness for the eyes...everything in motion its a bless/ better
It is noticeable, going from my note ultra to the iphone it was noticeable for me.
However the point is for a starting price of 1099 it nees’s to have it. Even a damn $200 android phone has it...granted with LCD but still it exists.

I will be ordering few models in October. See you then
same notch, same refresh rate. don't care about design, cause I always put a case. well, not worth it.
We went through a super update cycle in 2018. New phones (XS and XR) and iPads (iPad Pro 12.9 and iPad) for me and my wife. And a Series 4 Apple Watch for me. I was expecting another big update cycle this year. Although I’m keeping an open mind until the official specifications come out, from the posted rumors looks like it will just be a watch update this year. If so, this will be the first time I’ve keep an iPhone more than two years.
It seems the next years' phone will be more interesting with higher refresh rate and a possible touch id under display.
Apple's thrust into AR is a lot like making 'fetch' happen.
Without 120hz what even is this upgrade? The body redesign is great but other than that all we're getting is A14, 5G (mostly useless), and a LiDaR sensor?
This was the most excited I'd been for an iPhone since the X and that is quickly deflating.
Plus, if Apple ships a $1000+ phone without 120hz or some other killer feature it's going to be absolutely killed by reviewers just like the XS was. 90 degree angles instead of curves isn't really exciting if it's the only thing to be excited about.
