Iphone Se Tip: Shake It Up

It's not entirely clear if Apple will adopt this technology for the iPhone 12 or a future iPhone. LTPO, or low-temperature polycrystalline oxide, has an Oxide TFT structure that uses up to 15 percent less power than LTPS, or low-temperature polysilicon, the backplane technology that Apple currently uses. Some of the iPhones coming in 2020 are also rumored to include touch-integrated displays supplied by LG, with LG also planning to switch to LTPO backplane technology in the second half of 2020, perhaps supplying more power efficient displays for some 2020 iPhones if the displays are ready in time. With a 4-core GPU, the processor is 2.2 times speedier than the iPhone 8. The new small smartphone comes with a 16-core Neural Engine, designed to help the little device punch through machine learning tasks at 15.8 trillion operations per second. The iPhones coming in 2020 could have some small gains in battery capacity as Apple suppliers are working on a custom battery protection module that's 50 percent smaller and thinner than the same component in previous iPhones. The 5-nanometer process will produce chips that are smaller, faster, and more battery efficient due to improved thermal management.

TSMC is on track to begin volume production of its 5-nanometer A14 chips designed for the iPhone starting in April. The iPhone itself remains Apple's biggest gold mine, with sales of $192 billion in its last fiscal year, despite supply shortages that have curtailed production. Some took a DIY approach by hiding gold coins under mattresses or burying dollar bills in back yards. In a converged world, you could make a call through your office WiFi network, head outside and connect to the cellular system, then connect back up to the WiFi at the coffee shop, all without losing the call or, really, doing anything at all. For more on the differences between mmWave 5G and Sub-6GHz 5G, make sure to check out our dedicated guide on the subject. Not all 5G networks use mmWave technology in all areas because it's best suited to denser urban locations. According to rumors, all of the iPhones in the iPhone 12 lineup will feature 5G connectivity, though it's not yet clear if all models will have super fast mmWave support in all countries. Rumors suggest TSMC will manufacture the 5-nanometer chips Apple will use in its 2020 iPhone lineup.

The iPhone 12 models coming in 2020 will use an Apple-designed 5-nanometer A14 chip manufactured by TSMC. Apple's use of OLED across the iPhone lineup will allow for "more flexible handset design." Apple is testing OLED displays from Chinese company BOE Display, which makes LCDs for Apple's iPads and MacBooks. We're expecting the 2020 iPhones to be called the iPhone 12. IPhone 12 Pro if Apple follows the same naming scheme it used for the 2019 iPhone lineup. Though Apple is expected to continue offering both higher-end (aka more expensive) iPhones and lower-end (more affordable) iPhones in 2020, all of the devices may come equipped with OLED displays this year, with Apple doing away with LCDs for its iPhone lineup. Alleged iPhone 12 schematics that surfaced in April have suggested Apple will implement a smaller notch by integrating the front speaker for the device into the bezel. At 6.7 inches, the 2020 iPhone 12 Pro will be Apple's largest iPhone to date, which is the 6.5-inch iPhone 11 Pro Max.

At a rumored 5.4 inches, the 2020 iPhone 12 will be the smallest iPhone Apple has released since the 4.7-inch iPhone SE. The rumored 3D camera in the iPhone is likely to work similarly, if not identically. As with the 2019 iPhone lineup, the 2020 iPhones are expected to have different camera technology. If you're looking for an iPhone, the only real reasons to pay more are if you really want a bigger screen and night mode. 2020 will be the first year that Apple introduces 5G support in the iPhone, allowing the new devices to connect to 5G networks that are much faster than 4G LTE networks. You can drag and drop entire folder structures into the Box folder, and all the contents are synced. With the right applications, smartphones can be powerful organizers. If the lower-end followup to the iPhone 11 is named the iPhone 12 (which is what we'll be calling it), then we can expect the two higher-end devices that are coming in 2020 to be the iPhone 12 Pro and the iPhone 12 Pro Max.
