With the launch of iPhone 12 upcoming, iPhone lovers across the country have aired their views to what looks like an upgraded version of iPhone 5
Apple has announced an Apple Event for September 15, which will be a virtual event and would see the launch of iPhone 12, which has followed several speculations and views.
The iPhone 12 design looks much like the iPhone 5 design, having flat machined edges. The iPhone 12 is expected to come in four different models:
- iPhone 12, 5.4-inches,
- iPhone 12 Max, 6.1 inches,
- iPhone 12 Pro, 6.1 inches, and
- iPhone 12 Pro Max, 6.7-inches.
The iPhone 12 comes with a 5G connectivity across the range, with Apple’s highly anticipated A14 Bionic processor and for the Pro set specifically – LiDAR cameras.
Let’s take a look at the iPhone 5 and compare its similar design with the iPhone 12.
The striking similar design of iPhone 5 in comparison with the iPhone 12 is:
- the flat machine edges,
- the curved edges, and
- the thickness.
This similar design has drawn comments from most iPhone lovers on social media in South Africa, saying it is an upgraded version of iPhone 5.
