iPhone 12 Pro Max
iPhone 12 Pro Max.
Apple is expected to launch the "iPhone 12 Pro Max" alongside the "iPhone 12 Pro" and "iPhone 12" at a fall 2020 event. The models will differentiate themselves with screen size, camera technology, and materials used.
The iPhone event usually takes place in September, but it may be pushed back to October in light of the coronavirus pandemic.
"iPhone 12 Pro Max" Features.
There are four rumored models expected in the fall lineup, but only one will occupy the "iPhone 12 Pro Max" space. This model is expected to have a 6.7-inch OLED display with 6GB of RAM and a triple camera system with LiDAR.
Design.
There are rumors about a design change throughout Apple's entire lineup this fall. The same edge-to-edge screen with a notch is anticipated, but some rumors suggest a smaller notch might be used. Analyst Ming-Chi Kuo has suggested that the notch might be reduced or removed entirely by using smaller camera technology.
An old design paradigm might be returning in 2020 by making the sides flat rather than rounded-off. The last iPhone to feature that design was the original iPhone SE and could give the new iPhones a distinctive yet classic look and feel.
Multiple sources have claimed that flat sides are expected. The iPad Pro also moved to a flat-sided design in their third-generation, giving more credence to the rumor as Apple prefers consistent design across platforms.
Going to 5G for the iPhone will also require a change in motherboards to larger and more expensive versions, Ming-Chi Kuo suggested. The logic board is tipped to grow by 10% to accommodate the new technologies in use, increasing the cost of the component by 35%.
The iPhone 11 Pro Max comes in three colors— silver, space gray, and midnight green. There have been numerous leaks suggesting that Apple may swap the Midnight Green with Navy Blue for the next generation, though the color would be restricted to the Pro lineup.
The largest iPhone in the lineup may be the only one to feature LiDAR, so the shape of the camera bump may change.
Multiple reports say that Apple is testing a greater-than-60Hz display. This could be a ProMotion display with a maximum 120Hz refresh rate. Jon Prosser says the display could be ProMotion but with some caveats like a variable refresh rate to preserve battery life.
Ross Young, the CEO of Display Supply Chain Consultants, weighed in on the rumors stating that the iPhone would need a low-temperature polycrystalline oxide backplane (LTPO) for ProMotion to be usable in an iPhone.
The technology is used on the Apple Watch and allows the screen to slow its refresh rate to as little as 1Hz to preserve battery life. He says that the iPhone would not have sufficient battery life without LTPO and the technology wouldn't be ready until 2021 for the "iPhone 13".
In a tweet from Young, he restated that the iPhone would not be receiving the 120Hz display and confirmed it with his available contacts. This goes against the rumors from multiple known leakers, but it is unclear who has the correct data source at this point.
The rear camera system on the "iPhone 12 Pro Max" could see some upgrades this fall. Some rumors have said that only the biggest iPhone will receive the LiDAR sensor found in the current iPad Pros.
Apple pushed LiDAR and its development at its 2020 WWDC. ARKit 4 in iOS 14 will allow developers to target the LiDAR sensor directly for 3D environment mapping and faster AR object placement. All of these advancements in AR will surely fuel the development of the upcoming "Apple Glass."
Qualcomm has taken the opportunity to hint at supplying the modems for the 5G iPhone as well. Earlier rumors placed LTE in the smallest model, but Kuo and other leakers have suggested that all "iPhone 12" models will receive 5G.
It is not clear if the iPhones will receive mmWave or sub-6Ghz versions of 5G. Some rumors say that all models will receive the sub-6GHz band, as it covers the widest range at the longest distance even if it is slower overall.
The pro models may get mmWave, which is a very fast version of 5G capable of home-broadband levels of download and upload rates. This version of 5G is highly unlikely however as it requires line-of-sight communication with the cell towers providing it—buildings or even people could block the signal of this band.
Additional Leaks
No USB-C port, will use Lightning
Will not include a charging plug in the box, may still have USB-C to Lightning cable.
If a charging plug is included, it may be 20w for the pro models
Will not include EarPods in the box to boost AirPods sales
7-element lens system for increased image quality
240fps 4K video recording may be possible
"iPhone 12 Pro Max" Pricing
The pricing structure should remain very similar to that of the iPhone 11 except for the new smaller screen size. Delays caused by the coronavirus could lead to a later than normal launch, similar to the iPhone X launch in 2017.
The budget models would release a week or two after the keynote held in late September or early October, and the pro models a few more weeks after that.
