I never liked rounded phones and the whole 2.5D crap everywhere. Bring black boxy and flat!

Fair enough! Im a fan of the boxy as well, but ideally for me it would be more of a mix between the 5s and current phone designs. A nice middle ground
 
If the 5.4” price and storage size - q
128GB base, are true I will box up my 256GB iPhone 11 Pro and sell.

Tad too big for liking and way too heavy, sick of my pinky hurting.

Don’t care for 5G but I’m with Three and will get it at no extra cost, hoping 5G shows it benefits when I’m in congested areas one day.

My wishlist has become majority true, but my god if Apple end up backtracking on 120hz, I will be fuming. It is easily the number 1 thing i want on the phone (along with reduced notch) and if they take it away for another year of 60hz that would almost put me off getting the phone completely
 
Would rather them implement it well tbh, rather than just throw it in because everyone else has it.

Not convinced it’s worth the battery trade off.

iPhone 12 lineup is definitely shaking up to be excellent, definitely feeling buyers remorse already over not just holding out with my iPhone 7 for another year but couldn’t deal with a wrecked microphone and crummy battery any longer ha!

The bigger battery size plus a more efficient chip in the A14 should counteract the 120hz display. I dont want to wait another year stuck on 60hz

Why are we still not getting USB-C on an iPhone in 2020? There’s no reason why it can’t be finally added.

Because apple are stubborn and stupid. Makes no sense how all their other "pro" devices have USBC (macbook, ipad, mac pro etc etc) but refuse to put it in their best selling device?
 
I don't get why people want 120hz displays, it's a phone not a gaming monitor lol.....u read msgs and browse social media, 60 is fine, it doesn't flicker, oled has great colour and contrast which is more important

They’re still a huge power suck atm especially coupled with 5G judging by the S20 at least but not just efficiency, recent reports is Apple weren’t happy with the calibration on 120hz displays.

I saw something about Samsung converting their display lines to LTPO which should help hugely in efficiency but iPhone display lines aren’t due to be converted until next year.

Get the regular 12 then, you wont need the pro
 
If the 12 is delayed do you think they will do anything for people on the Apple upgrade program? The idea is you get a new one every 12 months but if that’s delayed to 14 months we’ve kinda lost out?

5.4-inch iPhone 12
Young says that the iPhone 12 will feature a flexible OLED display from Samsung Display, with Y-OCTA integrated touch. Y-OCTA is Samsung flexible display technology where the touch sensor is placed directly on the OLED panel without the need for a separate touch layer.

The 5.4-inch iPhone will feature a 2340 x 1080 resolution and 475 PPI.

6.1-inch iPhone 12 Max
The 6.1-inch "iPhone 12 Max" as Young calls it is expected to feature a flexible OLED sourced from BOE and LG Display with an add-on touch sensor and a resolution of 2532 x 1170 and 460 PPI.

6.1-inch iPhone 12 Pro
The higher-end Pro version of the 6.1-inch iPhone coming in 2020 will feature a Samsung Display flexible OLED, and Young says it will be one of the first smartphones with 10-bits of color, for more vibrant, true-to-life colors and a richer variety of color gradations.

The 6.1-inch iPhone 12 Pro is not expected to have Y-OCTA technology and it will feature the same resolution as the 6.1-inch iPhone 12 at 2532 x 1170 and 460 PPI.

Young says that Apple may be bringing extreme dynamic range (XDR) to its iPhone lineup, which is specified as 1,000 nits of full screen brightness and 1,600 nits of peak brightness. Samsung displays can't hit this level, though, and thus if Apple does use XDR, XDR specifications will need to be tweaked.

Apple is rumored to be linking XDR (extreme dynamic range) compatibility to the iPhone 12 series. XDR performance on its monitors is specified by Apple as 1000 nits of full screen brightness, 1600 nits of peak brightness, 1M:1 contrast, 10-bits of color and ~100% P3 wide color gamut. To date, Samsung Display has only achieved 1342 nits of peak brightness and full screen brightness of 828 nits on smartphones, so if Apple does use XDR, the XDR specifications for brightness will need to change. Given the lower black levels in its OLED smartphones vs. its XDR monitor, contrast should actually be higher on its smartphones, in fact, DisplayMate measures the latest Samsung Display OLED contrast ratios as infinite in low ambient light.

Young also reiterates details he's previously shared about rumors suggesting Apple will bring 120Hz ProMotion displays to the iPhone 12 lineup.

Apple's iPhone 12 is not expected to use low-power LTPO technology, a feature Young believes is necessary for a fully functional 120Hz display given the power saving capabilities of LTPO technology.

Without LTPO, 120Hz is still possible, but it could be limited to non-native resolutions or it will be a significant power drain.

6.7-inch iPhone 12 Pro Max
The largest iPhone 12 Pro model that Apple plans to release in 2020 will feature a 6.68-inch display with a resolution of 2778 x 1284 at 458 PPI.

Young believes this model will have Y-OCTA support, 10-bit color, and will be XDR capable. Like the iPhone 12 Pro, it could also have a 120Hz refresh rate, but again, without LTPO.

Production
According to Young, panel production on components for the new 2020 iPhones will start approximately six weeks late, which means it will begin at the end of July. Young believes that this implies a delay in the iPhone 12 launch from September to October. There have been other rumors suggesting a possible delay, and Apple did stagger the launches of the iPhone XS and XR in 2018, so we could see a similar situation this year.

This year's iPhones are expected to feature OLED across the board, smaller notches for the front-facing camera, 5G for all models, and more, with full details on what to expect available in our iPhone 12 roundup.

That 5.4" iPhone is gonna be a smash hit if the pricing leaks are accurate.
