Hello everyone.

I have found this backpack (an iPad accessory) on Apple's official website:

https://www.apple.com/shop/product/HNF62ZM/A/incase-icon-lite-backpack-ii

... and what makes it interesting is the fifth image of this backpack. It clearly shows an notchless iPhone:

iPhone_12_image..PNG

What do you guys think? Could this be the iPhone 12 or is it just an iPhone that Apple has used in order to show how to use the backpack?

Lol, this is a render that uses the wallpaper for the iPhone X and shows the date when it was announced. Silly to think this is the new iPhone.

a) Incase wouldn't let that picture go to Apple if it was iPhone 12. (Breaking the NDA this early would get your company in trouble with Apple)
b) Apple would have noticed that when putting it in the website.
c) It would have been removed from the website already if it was iPhone 12.

Case closed.

It's simply unrealistic that Apple would give accessory makers access to their unreleased phone 10 months in advance. But yeah, this thread does not need to exist.

Can you then tell me why Apple lets Incase to put this image to its official website if it (really) doesn't reflect an iPhone, previously introduced by Apple, and even reflects the iPhone users' expectations (notchless iPhone).

The most important question is, why did/does Apple let Incase to show an iPhone without notch instead of an iPhone with notch on its website? Apple could refuse to publish that image and ask Incase to edit it before it was published on the official website.

You think simple.

How in the world would anybody outside of Apple be able to tell you if they care about this or if it’s just a mistake.

You tend to think too complicated.

No, the most important question is why are you obsessing over this. Why don't we wait until the phone is actually released and we'll know beyond a shadow of a doubt whether or not it has a notch. Until then it's all just wasteful speculation.

This doesn't seem like it was all that important enough that someone really paid that much attention to it. That's likely the most realistic explanation behind it.

Does not need to exist? Yeah like we need 500 more threads on yellow screens or battery issues.
