Apple iPhone 12,Pro Max, Pro and Mini Full Specifications

After so much anticipation and a long wait, Apple finally came out with its iPhone 12 series which includes iPhone 12 Pro Max, iPhone 12 Pro, iPhone 12 mini, and iPhone 12. This announcement was made during a virtual online event.

These latest models run on iOS 14 out-of-the-box and as well retain the notch that was featured originally on the iPhone X in November 2017. All the new four models also support  5G and are powered by Apple’s A14 Bionic chip. Also, One can get confused about which to buy or about what makes the four models different from each other. It is important to know that the two Pro  Max and the Pro are much more costly than the iPhone 12 and 12 Mini. The new models are also powered by the A14 Bionic SoC that is already available on the latest iPad Air and comes with the fourth-generation Neural Engine.

As earlier mentioned, the new iPhone series comes with 5G support, but it is however of no use if the 5G network is not yet available in your area, location, or region. The Night Mode on the iPhone 12 series has also been updated to deliver better low-light results, including by the front camera. A night-mode time-lapse feature will also be launched.

The iPhone 12 Pro and iPhone 12 Pro Max has 12-megapixel triple rear cameras with a wide (f/1.6), ultra-wide (f/2.4), and an additional telephoto (f/2.0 on Pro and f/2.2 on Pro Max) lens. They also include a LiDAR (a portmanteau of light and radar) scanner for better autofocus in low light (and Night-mode Portraits), improved depth photography, and augmented reality (AR) measurements.

The iPhone 12 Pro Max also has a 47 percent larger wide camera sensor. The iPhone 12 Pro offers 4x optical zoom while the iPhone 12 Pro Max offers 5x optical zoom with the telephoto sensor. All four models feature 12-megapixel f/2.2 front cameras.

The iPhone 12 mini comes in a 5.4-inch size, while the iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 Pro share the same 6.1-inch form-factor and the iPhone 12 Pro Max is the biggest in the series, with 6.7-inch size. The iPhone 12 mini and iPhone 12 features 12-megapixel dual rear cameras that include a wide-angle and an ultra-wide-angle shooter, with an f/1.6 aperture and f/2.4 aperture respectively.

The battery life of the iPhone 12 mini is expected to deliver up to 15 hours of video playback, while the iPhone 12 is rated to offer up to 17 hours of video playback and the same as the iPhone 12 Pro. The iPhone 12 Pro Max is expected to have the “longest battery life in an iPhone” with up to 20 hours of video playback. They support MagSafe wireless charging at up to 15W, and Qi wireless charging at up to 7.5W. 

Apple has also offered upgraded wireless charging support on the iPhone 12 series that supports magnetic chargers, carrying the MagSafe branding, which was earlier associated with the magnetically charging accessories of previous-generation MacBooks.
