The Apple iPhone 12 range is Officially delayedBut it is the company Controversial Design decisions Which is the real talking point, and now new leaks have revealed what may be the biggest ever.
Introducing the Apple iPhone 12 Pro concept
Working together, popular YouTuber Filip Koroy (aka EverythingApplePro) and prolific leaker Max Weinbach own I showed That Apple decided to differentiate the iPhone 12 Pro Max from the other iPhone 12 models, and that means you will have to go big (And expensive) For the best features in 2020.
“ A 6.7-inch iPhone [12 Pro Max] It’ll really be a flagship this year, “Koroy said.” It will have the best display and the best cameras … [iPhone] 11 Pro and 11 Pro Max were already the same devices, 12 Pro and 12 Pro Max will be more distinct. “
Koroy does not break through these differences, but recent leaks have speculated that the iPhone 12 Pro Max may be the only new iPhone to use Apple hardware. An exciting new LiDAR camera. Apple’s decision Cut down on batteries The new iPhones will also affect the lower iPhone 12 Pro Max model, which could also mean that it is the only model to get a ProMotion 120Hz display, despite concerns about losing all models.
But the big problem isn’t everyone’s desire to have a 6.7-inch smartphone, and Coroy explains that the range is Who did new design It is only likely to reinforce those feelings:
Source Max Weinbach, who had a working time with 6.7[-inch iPhone] The 12 Pro Max model, he says is totally uncomfortable [to hold]. The higher the size, the more it digs into the palm of your hand, and depending on the size of your hands, this could be a problem. Cases can mitigate this, but it is definitely a solid and sharp piece of hardware. ”

The other inconvenient aspect of the iPhone 12 Pro Max is its price. Leaks revealed earlier this month It increases for each new modelIPhone 12 Pro Max now starts at $ 1,199.
Is this price hike worth? Yes and no. The primary motivation behind this is to include an A 5G mmWave modem is quite expensive This has also caused competitors to push prices up. However, Apple is also working to cut cuts with the iPhone 12 lineup. Apart from reduced batteries and the impact of 120Hz displays, Apple will also remove both the Wall Charger and EarPods. Out of the box. This has clear environmental benefits, but it may not align well with customers when prices increase.
All this means that the iPhone 12 range is potentially one of the most polarizing versions of the iPhone to date. My advice: the cheaper model looks the better.
