An iPhone 12 dummy device has been posted on the supply chain blog Macotakara. There is also a SIM card slot placement that hints at a 5G surprise.

Previous leaks suggest that the iPhone 12 will come in four models spanning three screen sizes: iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 Max at 5.4" and 6.1", iPhone 12 Pro and iPhone 12 Pro Max at 6.1" and 6.7 The iPhone 12 Pro and iPhone 12 Pro Max are 6.1" and 6.7". The leaked dummy model further confirms that this is the case and tells us how the four phones compare to each other.

The smallest, the 5.4-inch iPhone 12, looks reasonably compact compared to stablemates like the Galaxy S20 with its 6.2-inch display and other current Android flagships, so Apple is sure that a variety of iPhone users It is likely to incorporate them. Rumored to be priced at $649, it could be an ideal device for those seeking the best small phone.

The larger 6.7-inch iPhone 12 Pro Max would be an ideal device for those who like larger phones with more screen space, but find them too big to handle. Comparatively, the Galaxy S20 Ultra's 6.9-inch display may be a little too large to be practical for some people.

While it may seem odd to have two 6.1-inch iPhones, there should be some differences between the two. iPhone 12 Max is expected to have two rear cameras, while iPhone 12 Pro Max is said to have three rear cameras and a LiDAR sensor. The iPhone 12 Pro Max is said to have three rear cameras and a LiDAR sensor. Additionally, the iPhone 12 Pro Max will have a smoother 120 Hz display.

The dummy iPhone 12 model looks quite similar to the iPhone 11 and iPhone 11 Pro handsets, except that the SIM card tray has been moved from the same side of the power button and placed alongside the volume rocker button, but with slightly squared edges. This is consistent with the leaked information surrounding the iPhone 12 design.

Under the hood, all iPhone 12 models will likely use a new Apple chip called the A14 Bionic, and RAM will likely be 4GB on the iPhone 12 and 8GB on the Pro phones. Storage is expected to range from 128GB to 512GB.

According to Macotakara, the relocation of the SIM card tray is to make room for Apple's Qualcomm Antenna in Package (AiP) module, which the blog claims will allow all iPhone 12 models to access ultra-fast millimeter wave 5G It claims that all iPhone 12 models will be able to access ultra-fast millimeter wave 5G.

This would be in direct contrast to the rumors we have heard so far, which suggest that only the iPhone 12 Pro model will access the very fast mmWave standard. Other reports suggest that the iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 Max will only support sub-6GHz 5G networks, which offer wider range but do not offer the high speeds that mmWave offers.

For now, it is worth taking Macotakara's report with a grain of salt. According to the blog, its source is not an Apple insider, but from Alibaba. [Currently, access to mmWave 5G is not thriving, as mmWave requires line-of-sight lines to provide a stable connection, and many 5G cell towers and base stations are needed to provide connectivity. This makes it a bit redundant for current cell phones and those coming out in 2020.

However, Apple tends to pride itself that the iPhone will be around for at least a few years; by adding mmWave connectivity, Apple can ensure that the next generation iPhone will be ready for the fastest 5G when it becomes more widely available. However, this is only our speculation, as there are no solid leaks or rumors suggesting that Apple will take such an approach.

The iPhone 12 was expected to be unveiled around September, which is when Apple usually reveals its next-generation iPhones. However, some reports have suggested that the iPhone release could be delayed by as much as a month due to manufacturing and supply chain issues caused by the coronavirus pandemic.
