News & Reviews:   iPhone 12 series

According to a recent report by Instant Digital on Weibo, iOS 27 will still support the iPhone 12 series and newer models. So, what should you know about it?

When Apple designed the iPhone 12 series, OLED panels from BOE was part of the plan. Things didn't quite work on at the time, but it seems like the company will be catching up at last. Sources claim that BOE is now back in Apple's plan and will help supply the Apple with OLED panels.

Planning to get a MagSafe Duo Charger to go with your new iPhone 12? If that's the case, you can check out the new leak to get an idea of how it looks and works. Specifically, there's a new leaked hands-on video that shows what's allegedly the new wireless charging accessory from Apple.

Last week, Apple have launched the iPhone 12 series and there are no EarPods and charging adapter in the box. The devices didn't come with those accessories including the iPhone SE, iPhone XR, iPhone 11, iPhone 12, and iPhone 12 Pro. In fact, the company encourages Apple users to use their existing charging adapter and EarPods or buy them separately. 

Apple's iPhones have been supporting wireless charging but the company hasn't launched any accessories to cater to the feature yet. Earlier, it was rumoured that Apple would launch a small wireless charging mat in the first half of 2020 and it didn't happen. Now, it looks like these leaked images of the circular array of magnets on the iPhone 12 is telling us something.

Last week, Apple CFO Luca Maestri has confirmed that the launch of the iPhone 12 series will be delayed. Luckily, we're seeing only a one-month-long delay as it is suggested that the devices will eventually arrive around the end of October 2020. However, it looks like not all four devices from the series will be launched together at one time but rather in a two-stage launch.

Back in March, sources claimed that the Apple iPhone 12 series this year will have two variants with LIDAR scanner. From that, it can be assumed that Apple's next flagship smartphone series could come with at least three variants this year. But it looks like there's going to be a total of four variants if a new leak is to be believed.

It was previously hinted that the Apple iPhone 12 series this year will come with a model that has a quad rear camera setup. Likely to be the iPhone 12 Pro Max, this model is expected to come with not only a 3D depth camera but also a larger camera sensor and sensor-shift stabilisation.
