I saw the article on the front page the other day, TrendForce saying no 1TB, how reliable are they, I know some have had a lot of fun at the expense of Jon Prosser, who I actually enjoy, but some stuff TF said was what Prosser said, then they contradict themselves with 1TB, as Prosser's the one who tweeted if you're ready for 1TB iPhone's? I know a lot or most don't need that much, but for someone who either consumes a lot of media, or shoots a lot of 4K videos, 1TB would be a nice option. I'm hoping TrendForce is wrong, and Apple gives us a 1TB iPhone 12s/13 Pro Max (whatever they call it, 12s or 13).

You have to take these rumors with a grain of salt. No one knows and I think Apple sends out fake rumors to these leakers.

My opinion is I don't see it happening at least with the 13 because it would be $1799 USD for the Pro Max in 1TB. How many people would buy it at that price? What percentage of iPhone users take 4K video on a daily basis? I bet that sales of the 512 GB model are low so it would even be lower. Would the sales even be worth making that variant? I know you don't have these answers but that's the questions that make me doubt it will happen. It will sell but if it's like 1-2% of sales it wouldn't even be worth it.

I mean yeah it'd be expensive, but if the prices stay the same, and they just say either bump main storage from 128GB to 256GB or get rid of the 256GB and have 512GB and 1TB with either 128GB or 256GB as options, it could work, I know many don't need 1TB, but it'd be nice to have that, I think some Android phones have 1TB options, I'm hoping TrendForce is wrong, and we get a 1TB iPhone, and I agree, need to take all rumors with a grain of salt, so much BS and false info being sent to these leakers.
 
Not sure whether the maximum storage capacity will be 512GB or 1 TB. Either way having a 1 TB model does no harm as there may be people who require it. More choices are always good.
 
Not sure 1tb will be coming this year but am sure 120hz refresh rate is coming this year sweet!!!
