Just a couple of days ago, Apple announced the iPhone SE 2020. It usually reveals new iPhones in September, but the SE-series are the only exception. The “iPhone 12” or whatever they choose to call it, is expected to be unveiled five months from now.

But thanks to Max Weinbach and EverythingApplePro, we might be getting an ultra-early look at its design. The video has been posted on YouTube and shows-off a tonne of details about the upcoming Apple flagship.

Dubbed the iPhone 12 Pro Max 5G at the moment, the first thing you’ll notice is the design language. It reminds us of the previous generation models like the iPhone 5s due to its sharp and straightforward edges. That design was and is still loved by many. In fact, even the iPhone SE 2020 carries forward the infamous design language of the iPhone 7.

Coming back to the leak, the iPhone 11 Pro Max has a 6.5-inch display but the CAD files suggest Apple will go with an even bigger screen measuring 6.7-inches. The phone is slightly taller and wider, but also thinner. The flat design allows it to reduce both, width and height.

Smaller notch, less bezels

For the first time since the introduction of the notch in iPhone X, Apple has finally decided to cut down the bezels as well as reduce the notch size. This could imply that the company has also been able to rejig infrared components for Face ID and they now occupy lesser space. In the end, this would mean more notification icons easily visible. Something that has been quite an annoying factor for many.

While the phone gets thinner, the camera bump gets larger. Obviously, it retains a triple-camera setup. But, now it’ll also get a LiDAR Scanner, a new feature Apple recently introduced in the latest iPad Pro iteration.

The iPhone 12 Series is expected to have 5G across all models and thus, it seems even the antenna bands have grown significantly from in size too from 1.0mm to 1.83mm.

Lastly, there is also evidence that it may have a Smart Connector. The iPad Pro currently has it and is used for connecting external accessories like a keyboard. Everything else we’ve seen on an iPhone so far, like the power button, lightning port, and instant mute toggle remains untouched.

While the video describes the upcoming flagship in excruciating details, we must digest these with a pinch of salt. The phone is almost half a year away and the company could still be in the design or development stage. Any changes could be made and the final product could definitely differ.

The iPhone 18 might sell out for an unexpected reason

The ongoing shortage might play a part in the phone selling out earlier than expected.

An iPhone selling out is not news. Because of how popular the phones are, it’s within the realm of probability that Apple runs out of stock at some point. According to a new report, this year won’t be any different… but it’s for an entirely different reason.

First reported by analyst Tim Culpan, Apple is reportedly struggling to meet its demand for semiconductors for the iPhone 18 and the foldable iPhone. The ongoing memory shortage is cutting off Apple’s ability to deliver the required supply of smartphones in a timely fashion. The report even claims that TSMC, which helps produce the iPhone, is sitting on a shipment of processors, worth US$ 1 billion, that don’t have memory chips.

Now, Apple is still confident that it can weather the launch. However, if the shortage persists, the iPhone 18 generation will likely sell out much more quickly than expected.

It’s an interesting time for Apple to experience such a shortage. It’s been heavily rumored that the company will launch its very first foldable phone next month, creating a new market for the brand. Apple definitely wants this attempt to succeed after the tepid response to its last new product, the Vision Pro.
