Introduction
Apple is coming out with an updated version of the iPhone 12 Mini that will be available in 2020. The phone has some new features, including a 5G cellular capability and new processing power. Apple says it's going to cost $569 USD when it comes out. It is also going to be available as an unlocked phone through all US carriers, meaning you can buy it directly from Apple or one of their partners without signing up for any contracts or long-term commitments (like you would need to for most other phones). All in all, this device looks like one worth considering if you're in the market for a new smartphone!
The first 5G iPhone
5G is the next generation of cellular technology, and it’s going to be huge. The iphone 12 mini will be the first 5G capable iPhone with a release date sometime this fall.
iPhone 12 Plus users will also have access to 5G, but you’ll need to use a separate accessory called the AirPods Connector (Apple) in order to make that happen. While it isn’t included with your purchase of an iphone 12 plus, this accessory can be purchased separately at any Apple store or online from Apple for $39 USD.
The AirPods Connector is an optional accessory that lets you connect your iPhone 12 Plus to a 5G network. The AirPods Connector connects directly to the iphone 12 plus and allows you to use the latest cellular technology without having to carry around another device or buy another SIM card.
A new faster processor, A14 Bionic
The A14 Bionic processor is the iPhone 12's brain, and it's the first Apple processor to be built on a 7 nanometer process, which means it can operate faster than ever. The A14 Bionic has six cores: four high-performance cores that handle everyday tasks like browsing or watching video, plus two low-power cores dedicated to handling AI tasks (like facial recognition). It also comes with a neural engine that handles artificial intelligence tasks like speech recognition and visual processing.
The A14 Bionic processor is also the first Apple chip to include a dedicated video encoder and decoder, which means you can record video in 4K at 60 frames per second (fps) or lower resolutions at up to 240 fps.
Comes in either 64GB, 128GB, or 256GB of internal storage.
The iPhone 12 Mini comes in either 64GB, 128GB, or 256GB of internal storage. You can expand the storage by using a microSD card.
The 64GB and 128GB versions are priced at $749 and $849 respectively while the 256GB version is priced at $949.
The iPhone 12 Mini is available in six different colors: White, Black, Product Red, Green, Blue and Purple. It comes with the same old Lightning port, but it’s now IP68-rated which means that you can submerge it in up to 2 meters of water for 30 minutes without any damage.
Has a dual 12 MP camera
Next time you’re looking to take a photo, consider using the iPhone 12 Mini’s 12 MP dual camera. This feature allows you to switch between two lenses—one wide-angle lens and one telephoto lens—so that you can capture exactly what you want with ease. With both cameras, you can capture high-quality images in any environment.
The wide-angle lens has a field of view up to 52 mm, while the telephoto lens gives you photos with a 6 mm field of view. The wide angle gives you more room to move around in your scene and get closer up shots when needed; while the telephoto lets users zoom into objects further away from them without sacrificing quality or clarity
The dual cameras also feature wide color capture and optical image stabilization. This allows you to take photos in any lighting situation without worrying about grainy or blurred images. You can even use the iPhone 12 Mini’s portrait mode with both lenses to blur out the background around your subject for a professional-looking image every time.
Has an IP68 water resistance rating.
This means the phone is dustproof and waterproof for up to 1.5 meters for up to 30 minutes. It’s not quite as high as other phones on this list, but it’s still more than enough for most people.
The phone is also shockproof, which means it can withstand drops from up to 1.5 meters. This is great news for anyone who’s clumsy or has kids that tend to drop things often!
Has a Ceramic Shield front cover to increase durability and decrease the chance of shattering when dropped.
Ceramic is a material that has been used for thousands of years, and it's still as popular today as ever before. It's used to make dishes, kitchenware, tiles for floors and walls—you can even find it in your bathroom sink or shower. Ceramic is one of the hardest materials available on Earth today; if you drop your iPhone 12 Mini on ceramic tile from shoulder height (or higher), there's very little chance that your screen will crack.
Is 5G-capable
Come with an embedded Apple SIM card, which means that the device works seamlessly with eSIMs and allows you to activate your phone, using any carrier you like. You can also purchase physical SIM cards in stores or online if you prefer.
5G is the future of mobile internet, and it's here to stay. It can be used to download data as fast as 1 gigabit per second—more than 100 times faster than 4G LTE. 5G also consumes less power, which means your battery will last longer when you're streaming content or playing games. If you want to get in on all these benefits, then your phone needs to be 5G-capable!
The iPhone 12 Mini comes with an embedded Apple SIM card that allows you to activate your phone easily using any carrier you like (or none at all). This means that whether you're traveling abroad or just want a cheaper option for cellular service at home, it's easy to switch providers while still enjoying fast speeds wherever life takes you.
Has a 1770 mAh battery.
The iPhone 12 Mini has a 1770 mAh battery, which is lower than the 2,200 mAh battery of the iPhone 11. But you should know that this isn’t really something to worry about. Battery technology has been improving for years, but it can only go so far. While bigger batteries are better, there are only so many ways we can make them bigger without sacrificing space or weight in the phone itself. We all want our phones to be smaller and lighter, but if they have larger batteries then they will also be thicker and heavier than what we’re used to—and nobody wants that!
The fact of the matter is: no matter how much time you spend reading about new phones online or looking at specs before buying one yourself (or having someone else buy one), there will always be things you don't like about any given device...but there's also always something good too!
It is a great way to get a phone at the price of an old one, but with the promise of 5G and new technology!
This new phone is a great way to get into the latest technology, without breaking the bank. It's a fantastic deal for anyone who wants a new phone but was scared by the initial costs of an iPhone 12 Mini. While it may be cheaper than other phones on the market, it impressively still has all of your favorite apps and features from Apple, including:
- Face ID
- Touch ID fingerprint scanner
- Siri voice assistant
Apple Pay and NFC Wireless Charging (with an adapter) The phone comes with the latest version of iOS 12, which brings great new features such as: Screen Time - It helps you monitor how much time you spend on your phone and allows you to set limits for yourself.
