We usually see Apple do their events for the iPhone earlier in the year, but COVID certainly delayed that. Today, the company held their hour-long “Hi-Speed” event that unveiled the new lineup of iPhone 12’s.
The lineup includes iPhone 12, iPhone 12 Mini, iPhone 12 Pro and iPhone 12 Pro Max.
Apple also introduced 5G to their lineup, but has decided to remove the wall charger and wired EarPods from the box. The phone will come with a USB-C to Lightning cable, though.
