by clicking the link in the description. So the iphone 12 launch event is in 24 hours and we've
got some huge leaks to share today we've got news on 120 Hz updated spec information mainly around
the camera and some 5g issues that may be coming to uk before we get started though please like the
video if you're a fan of apple let me know in the comments what device you're watching this video on
so the iphone 12 official launches tomorrow but we've already been given the specs today
unfortunately for me i'm actually on a flight during the launch but i'm sure i'm going to
land to plenty of tweets updating me from you guys first story of today however is about 5g
on the iphone 12. an industry insider has advised that the iphone 12 series may not support the 700
megahertz band which could cause a big issue for uk users the lower spectrum bands are important
for 5g as they can travel further and they're also better at wall and building penetration
the 700 megahertz band is the most common in the uk and if it's not supported it would put
three uk at a huge advantage if they've got a wide range of bands compared to other carriers
next up we've got plenty of news for the updated specs of the iphone 12 and this comes from pine
and it pretty much all surrounds the camera we've also got the full spec pricing and colors from
kang but we'll be covering that shortly now pine is commenting on a lot of his tweets back from
may and correcting them with the finalized info he states that the dynamic zoning algorithm is coming
but the redesign true depth is not he states the notch has also shrunk horizontally but
it has increased slightly vertically he also states that there's been no news on portrait
video of the iphone 12 so we can't confirm at this time but there's still a possibility
he says there's an improved hybrid zoom for the iphone 12. we've seen this achieved in a few
different ways but it appears for apple they're gonna combine frames at different zoom levels
and then stitch them together we don't have a macro lens on the iphone 12 we apparently
will get some macro shooting and this is going to be done by the iphone 12 ultra wide camera
apparently using the ultra ride it will now be able to get much closer to the objects
now finally we've got a big update for 120 hertz on the apple iphone 12 and while it's not good
it's also not over just yet so i've got absolutely no information right now in terms of private info
i don't have the details on the finalized iphone 12 pro max but at least it seems some others do
john prosser has been told by his source that 120 Hz is not being implemented in the iphone 12 pro
and it's 100 down to the battery life the hardware is capable but with 5g and 120 hertz
together there's just gonna be too much battery drain they've picked 5g over 120 hertz and now
in his tweets he does not mention the iphone 12 pro max and it seems as if he's talking singular
rather than plural so there is still a chance given the pro-max's increased battery capacity
this could also work now personally i take even 90 hertz over 5g but market research has obviously
showed apple that 5g is more important for people that game or download over cellular networks then
5g is going to be a huge advantage as i said i've got no information on the iphone 12 pro max though
and i've scoured the web today to check for other sources and haven't found anything
so there is still a glimpse of hope for you high refresh rate fans out there but it isn't looking
great i mean it could also be great marketing as i was considering the iphone 12 pro or the
12 pro max if 120 Hz was only on the pro max then that's my decision made we're expecting
a staggered release with the iphone 12 and we had a huge leak from kang last friday telling us all
of the specs the pricing and the color options for the iphone 12. we're going to run through
all of them now and it's going to be interesting to see tomorrow how accurate these actually were
so to start with we've got the iphone 12 mini kang confirms it's going to be a 5.4 inch oled display
it's coming with a super retina xdr display that's got a new protective glass they're calling ceramic
shield now this is using a ceramic substrate and it's going to increase its hardness as well as
its resistance to drop so it's less likely to be damaged the iphone 12 mini comes with a choice of
64 128 or 256 gig storage and this is coupled with four gigabytes of ram we're expecting an aluminium
frame and there's been no mention on whether or not the iphone 12 mini is going to support
wireless charging but we're really hoping that it does the battery capacity is 2227 milliamp hours
while that seems a little small it is going to be well optimized as we know we get a dual camera
setup for the iphone 12 mini and this is going to be a wide angle plus an ultra wide angle lens
with an aperture of f 1.6 we've got improved deep fusion improved night mode improved hdr
and all four iphone 12s can directly shoot dolby vision it's going to be available in the choice of
black white red blue or green and pre-orders are starting from the 6th of november with the phone
becoming available on the 13th the 64 gigabyte version of the iphone 12 mini is starting at 699
next up we've got the standard iphone 12. the iphone 12 sports a 6.1 inch oled display which
is again protected by this new ceramic shield glass in terms of specs it's very similar to
the iphone 12 mini just with this increased display size so we again get a choice of 64
128 or 256 storage along with 4 gigabytes of ram we get an aluminium frame and it's powered by the
a14 bionic chipset and again it has 5g we're hoping for wireless charging but again this
is unconfirmed at the moment but we do know it's got a 2775 milliamp hour battery it comes with a
dual camera setup consisting of a wide angle and an ultra wide angle lens again with an aperture
of f 1.6 we've got the same camera software improvements across the whole of the iphone range
so this will directly shoot dolby vision the iphone 12 also comes with the same color choices
as the mini so that's black white red blue or green for the 64 gig version it's starting at 799
now pre-orders of the iphone 12 are going to be available on the 16th of october with the phone
releasing on the 23rd next up we've got the iphone 12 pro now the iphone 12 pro has the same 6.1 inch
oled display but being a pro it does come with many improvements and while a lot of you are going
to want to know about 120 hertz we will discuss this at the end of course it's a super retina xdr
display and it's got the ceramic shield protection on the iphone 12 pro we get six gigs of ram and a
choice of 128 256 or 512 gigabytes storage it's of course powered by the a14 bionic and when it comes
to the 5g it supports the sub six gigahertz bands and millimeter wave as well but only if you're in
the usa for the camera we've got a triple camera setup plus a lidar sensor on the iphone 12 pro
and this gives us four cameras in total we get a wide angle an ultra wide angle and of course a
telephoto camera there's a new wide-angle 7p lens with an aperture of f 1.6 and we also have the 52
millimeter telephoto and the whole setup allows for four times optical zoom the iphone 12 pro
does have wireless charging and it's reportedly going to be called magsafe and it's capable of
15 watt wireless charging the iphone 12 pro has a 2 815 milliamp hour battery which is slightly
larger than the 12 when it comes to the iphone 12 pro we get more premium colors and this time it's
a choice of gold silver graphite and blue and the 128 gig version starts at 999 finally we've got
my personal favorite and that's the iphone 12 pro max which has a few improvements over the pro the
iphone 12 pro max has a huge 6.7 inch oled display and it's again being called a super retina xdr
display it's protected by the ceramic shield glass and it should prove it to be an incredible display
for the iphone 12 pro max we again get six gigs of ram and a choice of 128 256 or 512 storage
and is of course powered by the a14 bionic we get sub 6 gigahertz 5g and if you're in the usa
you also get millimeter wave we've got improved cameras on the iphone 12 pro max and while it's
still a triple camera setup plus a lidar sensor it is better than the pro we've got a wide angle an
ultra wide angle and a telephoto and the lidar but the main sensor of the iphone 12 pro max is
47 larger and we also get five times optical zoom we get the same 15 watt wireless charging that's
being dubbed as magsafe and the phone is going to come in a choice of gold silver graphite or blue
the iphone 12 pro max battery is the largest at 3 687 milliamp hours but it should easily last the
day with the new efficiency of the a14 the 128 gig iphone 12 pro max is going to be starting at 1099
and we're getting pre-order starting on the 13th of november with release then being the 20th so
that's it for the roundup of specs and you'll notice that kang did not mention 120 hertz as
we covered earlier it's looking very unlikely now but there is still hope for the iphone 12
pro max if it's not there i'll be disappointed with a lot of you guys out there but it's still
going to be a great device without it that's it for the iphone 12 information today though but
as always i'd like to know your thoughts in the comments who out there is waiting for the iphone
12 and what model are you waiting for but thanks for watching the video if you liked it smash the
thumbs up if you didn't hit the thumbs down twice and i'll see you guys in the next one
