40% of 5G iPhone 12 models ordered for this year are the 6.1-inch iPhone 12 Max model with two-rear cameras
A pair of sources told the Nikkei that the length of the delay has decreased over the last two months so we can only guess how much later the release of the iPhone 12 line might have been had Apple not managed to cut that delay time. Still, it now appears that Apple’s plan to produce 75 million to 80 million 5G iPhone units this year may not be achieved. Instead, Apple could fall short by one to two million handsets this year with the shortfall made up early in 2021. This information comes from two sources with knowledge of the situation.
Apple iPhone 12 Max rumored to be the first of the new 5G models to be mass produced
The most expensive new iPhone model will be the iPhone 12 Pro Max which will sport a 6.7-inch AMOLED display, 6GB of memory, and a triple-camera setup that includes a telephoto lens with 3x optical zoom. Apple will also equip the “Pro” models with the LiDAR depth sensor that uses Time of Flight technology to produce enhanced depth readings for AR capabilities and improved bokeh blurs for portraits. The 6.7-inch iPhone will reportedly work with both sub-6GHz 5G spectrum and the faster mmWave ultra-high band airwaves.
