In a note to clients — as noted by MacRumors — analyst Ming-Chi Kuo says it appears demand for iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 Pro are higher than expected. He thinks that they’ll account for 30-35% of Apple smartphone shipments this quarter.
Along the same lines, Taiwanese carriers believe that sales of iPhone 12 models will be strongest since the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus, according to the Economic Daily News.
You can now pre-order the iPhone 12 mini and iPhone 12, as well as the 2020 iPad Air, from Apple. However, various reports say that some models of the smartphone are already on back order. The iPhone 12 Pro and iPhone 12 Pro Max will be available for pre-order on Nov. 6.
The iPhone 11 mini and iPhone 12 boast edge-to-edge Super Retina XDR displays for a brighter, more immersive viewing experience, and a new Ceramic Shield front cover, providing what Apple says is “the biggest jump in durability ever” on an iPhone.
They’re available in 64GB, 128GB, and 256GB models in blue, green, black, white, and (PRODUCT)RED starting at US$799 and $699, respectively. Customers can also get an iPhone 12 for $22.87 a month or $549 with trade-in and iPhone 12 mini for $18.70 a month or $449 with trade-in from apple.com, in the Apple Store app, and at Apple Store locations.9 iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 mini are also available through Apple Authorized Resellers and select carriers.
