Apple iPhone 12 specifications, price, launch date & more

Apple iPhone 12 specifications, price, launch date & more: You will get the first glimpse of the design of the iPhone 12 with the box. The box of the iPhone 12 is half that of the iPhone 11. The design is reminiscent of the eight-year-old iPhone 5. The edges of the iPhone 12 are not curved, but flat.

With the flat design, holding and talking on the phone is less comfortable than on the round edge. Simply put, the sides of the phone are at 90 degrees. The sides of the phone are made of aluminum and the back and front panels are made of glass.

This time the company has used the strongest glass-ceramic shield for display protection, which is much stronger than before. It will not break if the phone suddenly falls from the pocket. The phone does not slip from the hand.

The iPhone 12 is just 7.4mm thin and weighs 162 grams. Let us know that the weight of the iPhone XR is 192 grams. In such a situation, the iPhone 12 will be called light and thin phone. The iPhone 12 sports a 6.1-inch OLED Super Retina XDR display with a resolution of 1170x2532 pixels, though you don't get a 120Hz refresh rate.

With this, there is support for the HDR panel. The display comes with a wide P3 color gamut and Apple True Tone ambient light adjustment feature. There is ceramic shield protection on the display. The brightness of the display is 1200 nits.

The phone has got an IP 68 rating. In such a situation, this phone will not spoil even after submerging in 33 meters of water. No changes have been made as compared to before, except for ports and buttons. The camera design is also similar to the iPhone 11.
