Apple is expected to launch four new iPhone 12 models with OLED displays later this year and the base price could be lower than previous years.
According to reliable tipster @jon_prosser, his source claims that the 5.4-inch iPhone 12 model is priced at US$649 (S$918) while the top-end iPhone 12 model will be priced from US$1,099 (S$1,555). Below are the rumoured prices for the different iPhone 12 models:
- 5.4-inch iPhone 12 with OLED display, 5G and two rear cameras – US$649
- 6.1-inch iPhone 12 with OLED display, 5G and two rear cameras – US$749
- 6.1-inch iPhone 12 Pro with OLED display, 5G, three rear cameras and LiDAR scanner – US$999
- 6.7-inch iPhone 12 Pro with OLED display, 5G, three rear cameras and LiDAR scanner – US$1,099
If this turns out to be true, it will be the first time that Apple is offering an iPhone with OLED display for less than US$999. Apple’s first iPhone model with an OLED display, the iPhone X, had a retail price of US$999 at launch.
While Apple is likely to announce the iPhone 12 lineup in September, retail availability could be pushed back by a month or two. Apple is reportedly delaying the mass production of the iPhone 12 by a month due to the Covid-19 pandemic. Some iPhone 12 models could only be available in early November.
