Hey, did Apple already announce prices for the new iPhones? Totally missed that. Can someone please post a link, where I can see all the prices?
Apple hasn't released prices, leakers apparently got their hands on this year pricing.
Only thing apple officially announced was that this year iPhone 12s release will be delayed by a few weeks.
Speed aside, the A13 has that UWB location sensor or something.
In addition, my friend informed me the other day that his iphone 11 is somehow learning to recognise him even with his mask on, though I am seeing no such feature on my iPad Pro. It could be one more advantage of the A13 over the A12 or even A12X.
Though I do agree that depending on what you do on your phone, you may not necessarily feel the speed improvement yet. Right now, I keep my 8+ on low power mode all day and I don’t really notice the slower processor. Apps probably open and load a hair slower than normal, but I just don’t feel it.
Rumors started with $650.00 pricing and have now changed to $750 for the 5.4” model.
I wouldn’t say that. Depending on who you read (rumor wise) price is still quoted from $650 - $750. It would be great if Apple discounted the new phone by $50. I don’t see that happening, even with a tough pandemic economy.
The OP totally made a price hike sound like a fact. That was kinda confusing for me. 🤷♂️
Some members here take the word of certain leakers / analysts as gospel fact. With the iPhone 12, I plan on paying what I normally do, if I upgrade. If Apple surprises us, all the better.
In January I bought the XS. Saved over $800 (Australian) over the 11 Pro. I might consider the 12 in 2 years time.
Outside of scrolling at a very fast and abnormal speed, I doubt the refresh rate will really be noticeable on such a small device. I think it will be more tech specs than anything.
I’m going to upgrade, but I only have an XR. I actually prefer LCD over OLED displays, which is why I grabbed the XR initially.
I do however not like the camera on the XR. The 11 pro I ignored, but if the 12 does indeed have a new 64MP imager and perhaps a 3x telephoto lens, I’ll buy one for that.

Says who? All reports say the display had issue which is why it was ditched. LTPO will likely be needed for them to sort this.
The Average user would get by fine on the A10, nevermind anything beyond that...
Also price hike this year is likely going to be due to 5G, not the new chip per se.
No average user should be updating regularly for processing power as they don’t use any of that, and what they do use, old apple chips are still more than capable
(I don’t think people realize how powerful these mobile processors are now a days)

which reports are you claiming?
reputable insiders have said it’s not happening this year, repeatedly, as recently as “days” ago
Pretty much.
Gives the vocal complaining minority, hardcore anti-Apple fans and youtube tech reviewers something to focus on though haha
Did I hear him correctly, that the phones will have Touch ID as well? If I did hear correctly, I don‘t believe that given the price of the 5.4.” I also haven’t heard any other leaker or analyst state the new phone will have both biometrics.
Might be only the pros are getting the touchID.
Would make sense as the pros have to have USP over the cheaper phones?
Don’t think he is a leaker though think he just mentions rumours he hears like we do.
Looking on Twitter he seems to think
His source is quiet accurate so will see I guess
I’m expecting no 120hz but if it arrives then great
