    Apple should slide the schedule so new phones available first week of September every year - all models immediately available after announcement.
    You do realize that the pandemic played a huge part in the delay.

    No iPhone 5.4” 12 Pro? :(
    No, it is not big enough to hold the hardware components included with the Pro.

  • Apple could use 'iPhone 12 mini' name for smallest 2020 model

    It is silly how this little leaker claims he is someone special for coming up with new iPhone names...you know, since Apple already has a Mac Mini and iPad Mini.  And amazing that 12 comes after 11.

    Apple please do not used the “Mini” for the 5.4” iPhone 12!  The “Mini” in the iPad stands for a budget, cheap, economical smaller iPad.  It is now focus selling to children too!  It is ridiculous how the Mini, which when came out was expensive and many business and professional brought it is now sort of a joke! Apple has not really updated the iPad Mini to equal either the iPad Air or iPad Pro.  Just call it by it size - “iPhone 12 Minimum”!
    Your comment is ridiculous.  How is the iPad mini a 'budget, cheap, economical smaller iPad' when it is more expensive than the base model 10.2" iPad?  The mini has an A12 processor and is available in 256GB, double the capacity of the base iPad.  The base model iPad just now in 2020, has been updated to match the performance of the mini.  How do you know the focus is to sell to children?  You do realize that the iPad is popular among everyone, adults and children alike.  Sounds like you have a size issue complex.

  • Compared: Apple's 2020 iPad Air versus 2020 11-inch iPad Pro

    With its A14 Bionic processor, compared to the 11-inch iPad Pro's A12Z Bionic, there is more power in the new iPad Air.
    That is likely not the case. The A12Z has four high-performance cores to the A14's two, and eight GPU cores to the A14's four. I'd expect better single-core performance from the Air, but the Pro is likely to be more performant in multi-core and GPU applications. This is the second comparison article from Apple Insider that failed to point out these differences. If I were in the market, I would certainly hold out for an iPad Pro update to A14-class chips, but I don't think one can presume that the Air is more powerful than the Pro given the information that we have.
    Exactly this!  Both AI articles comparing the Air and the Pro intentionally left out this key information.  Just because one processor is 'two numbers' higher than the other, does not make it faster.  The A14 is lacking the high performance cores and has half the amount of graphics cores compared to the A12Z.  Also, the fact that the Pro has the superior display with ProMotion, does not make the Air automatically faster.  Stop pretending the new Air has better features than the Pro.  It clearly doesn't.  It might look like a Pro, but it isn't.
