Apple is expected to officially unveil the iPhone 12 series on Tuesday. For the first time, four devices in three sizes will be released. But which of these models could become the most popular?
Apple will soon introduce the next generation of iPhones. The models will be available in 5.4-, 6.1- and 6.7-inch sizes (iPhone 12 mini, iPhone 12, iPhone 12 Pro and iPhone 12 Pro Max). But which of the iPhone 12 variants could be the most popular? On the occasion of the upcoming Apple event, TF Securities analyst Ming-Chi Kuo has published a report detailing the analyst's expectations regarding demand for the four models.
iPhone 12 will dominate sales figures
Somewhat less surprisingly, Kuo stated that the 6.1-inch iPhone 12 will be the most popular. This is reflected in shipment proportions, according to Kuo. According to the analyst, about 20 percent of iPhone 12 units will consist of the new smaller 5.4-inch mini version. The iPhone 12 Pro and Pro Max also have an allocation of about 20 percent, meaning the standard iPhone 12 will dominate with 40 percent. Kuo explained that while the iPhone 12 mini will be the cheapest variant, its screen is too small to appeal to the mass market. Late last week, a leaker claimed that the iPhone 12 mini would be priced at $699 and the 6.1-inch iPhone 12 will start at $799, $100 more than its comparable predecessor, the iPhone 11.
iPhone 12: 5G will not play a major role
Although the price will increase, customers will get more for their money as all new iPhones will have OLED displays for the first time as well as a new flat-sided design similar to the iPad Pro. The 6.1-inch iPhone 12 will reportedly feature a dual camera and will be available in stores on October 23. sale At the same time, Kuo addressed 5G in his prediction, stating that he believes 5G support will only play a minor role. Whether the analyst's prediction will be correct remains to be seen. If you're curious about what Apple will unveil at the "Hi, Speed" event, you'll find a summary of all the rumors below.
