Yesterday, Bloomberg has made a report that there will be four new iPhone models for the upcoming iPhone 12 lineup. Two of these will have a redesigned chassis with more flat edges and sides, akin to the new iPad Pro models and the old iPhone 4.
The notch for Face ID is also expected to become smaller this year.
With four models, the iPhone 12 is expected to be at its largest with a massive 6.7-inch screen. The two most expensive models will also feature the LiDAR scanner, which we first saw in the latest iPad Pro.
It’s not clear whether the two lower-tier models will have a redesign, as Bloomberg only reports that the two high-end models will have it.
It is also unlikely that Apple will be able to release all four models at once, due to COVID-19 disrupting global supply chains, particularly in China, where Apple produces most of its iPhones.
Furthermore, the announcement is expected to be delayed by several weeks than the usual September target.
