iPhone 12 Specifications

According to The Verge, as the product's name suggests, an iPhone 12 mini will have a 5.4-inch display, available in black, white, red, blue, and green.

The original iPhone 12 will adopt a 6.1-inch display while the 'Pro' version comes with a fully-revamped telephoto camera, 4x optical zoom, ultrawide angle, and a Lidar sensor.

Lastly, an iPhone 12 Pro Max will come in gold, silver, graphite, and blue, with an additional 6x optical zoom.

All four options will come with 5G support, dual-camera, and the Super Retina XDR feature. Storage options will clock between 64 to 256 gigabytes.

Speaking to GQ, Greg Joswiak, Apple's senior VP of Worldwide Marketing, believes that it is committed to reducing its e-waste.

"We're fortunate that people buy a lot of Apple products, so we know that the decisions we make in this regard are going to have an enormous impact," he said, which many believe that this may indicate the absence of the phone's charger.

iPhone 12 Pricing

Kang believes that the brand new iPhones will cost somewhat between $699 to $1,099.

An iPhone 12 mini with a 5.4-inch display will start at $699, and the preorder begins from November 6 to 7. October 16th or 17th is the preorder dates for the original iPhone 12 ($799) and iPhone 12 Pro ($1,099), while the 'Pro Max' version will be available for early purchasers on November 13th or 14th.
