Apple has just officially revealed it’s iPhones for 2020 — all shipping with 5G and OLED screens: the iPhone 12, iPhone 12 mini, iPhone 12 Pro, and iPhone 12 Pro Max.
If you have been reading rumors about the launch then one of the most controversial decisions that Apple has done with the iPhone launch this time around is that the new phones will no longer ship with airpods or a charger — if already have these then it’s a good thing, if you don’t then it’s an additional cost for you.
Starting off with the main stream models, we get the iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 mini. Yes, for folks looking for a small form factor phone that isn’t gimped, you get a 5.4″ version of the iPhone 12 — with the only difference being the screen size. For anyone disappointed with the specs of the iPhone SE, the iPhone 12 mini should be a good next tier phone to watch out for.
