With every new release, Apple continues to impress its users with its stunning camera and photography features. And this time is no different. The iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 mini are packed with a variety of impressive features and a long list of tech specifications when it comes to their new dual camera and immersive Super Retina XDR display. It features a small, 5.4-inch screen and is said to be the smallest, thinnest, and lightest 5G phone in the world.

Camera

• The iPhone 12 mini is equipped with two cameras. The biggest change, when it comes to its camera specifications, is that the main camera consists of seven different elements and a larger f/1.6 aperture. This feature lets 27 percent more light hit that sensor as compared to the cameras in the previous models. This allows users to capture stunning images and videos, even in low lighting.
• The second camera is a 12-megapixel ultra-wide lens with a 120-degree field of view. This camera consists of five elements, an f/2.4 aperture and a 13mm-equivalent focal length.
• The all-new photography system, Deep Fusion, allows users to take photos with improved quality in all types of surroundings and automatically reduces the amount of noise you see in photos. You can take photos in the dark with the help of its Night Mode feature, which can be used on the ultrawide and front TrueDepth cameras. You can also record time-lapses on Night Mode.
• The HDR camera also allows you to record cinema-grade Dolby Vision videos at 30 fps/ This processes Dolby Vision grading live even when recording. This grading remains intact while you are editing your videos in the Photos app or on iMovie.

Display

• The edge-to-edge Super Retina XDR of the new iPhone 12 mini allows users to have an immersive viewing experience.
• This display is made with new ceramic-hardened material and is named Ceramic Shield. The display is made with nano-ceramic crystals embedded in the glass matrix. It is said to be tougher than any smartphone glass and offers four times more resistance in case of a drop.
• The Ceramic Shield is said to be virtually impervious to heat and electricity, as specified by the glass-ceramic manufacturer, Corning.

As of today, Apple has reigned in a new era of smartphones with the unveiling of the new iPhone 12. Packed and built with tons of innovative features, iPhone 12 comes with an advanced dual-camera system, Super Retina XDR display, and a breathtaking Ceramic Shield front cover.

The new iPhone 12 is also one of its kind as it has 5G connectivity making it one of the first phones in the market to ensure faster connectivity speeds in the palm of your hand. The A14 Bionic is the fastest chip in a smartphone and enables you to enjoy the features of your phone to the fullest. iPhone 12 also introduces MagSafe which allows you to charge the phone wirelessly with ease and provides you with a wide range of accessories.

Variants of iPhone 12
iPhone 12 comes in two models – iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 mini. Both models will be available in five aluminum finishes – blue, green, black, white, and (PRODUCT)RED.

The iPhone 12 was the center of attention at the hour-long Apple event on Tuesday. The tech-giant unveiled its latest set of smartphones, all packed with the best-in-class features and a razor-sharp processor. The iPhone 12, iPhone 12 Pro, iPhone 12 Pro Max, and iPhone 12 mini are the four models of the latest series that will go on sale starting next week.

The iPhone 12 mini grabbed quite a few eyeballs after Apple’s claim that the device is the “smallest and lightest 5G phone in the world”. With a 5.4-inch screen, the phone is definitely shorter than the other models; however, it’s bigger than the iPhone SE which has a 4.7-inch display. The key difference between the two is that there’s no Touch ID in the iPhone 12 mini.

The iPhone 12 mini makes up for its screen size with electric features that are not too dissimilar from the iPhone 12 itself. It is powered by the A14 Bionic, which, according to Apple, is the first chip in the smartphone industry that is built on a five-nanometer process. The tech-giant claims that with the six-core CPU and four-core GPU, the A14 is 50 percent faster compared to its predecessor, enabling it to perform incredibly heavy tasks at lightning speed. Battery life is also optimised in the process.

Coming to the design, the iPhone 12 mini again has similarities with those of the iPhone 12, boasting an immersive and durable architecture. The Ceramic Shield in the front is a fascinating addition that increases the phone’s drop protection fourfold. There’s also an all-screen Super Retina XDR display to enhance viewing experience, while the slew of MagSafe accessories add further drama to the device. The leather wallet, silicone case, and MagSafe Charger are all fascinating accessories that can be bought separately.

The iPhone 12 mini runs on the newly-launched iOS 14, supports both 4G and 5G, and will be available in 64GB, 128GB, and 256GB capacities. There are five color options, namely green, blue, (product) red, white, and black. Pre-orders for the iPhone 12 mini start on November 6, and the product will be available for in-store purchases from November 13. Pricing for the phone starts at $729, with special discounts available for Verizon and AT&T users.

If there’s one thing that has not changed in 2020, it’s Techtober, a month where geeks yearn to boast the fanciest of technology. And that’s exactly what Apple did with the Apple launch event on October 13. The pre-recorded event introduced the new iPhone 12 line-up to the world and also announced that they are up for pre-orders starting this week.
