Details of Apple’s iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 Pro have been leaked — with prices that will be notably cheaper than the last generation.
Prominent leaker Jon Prosser published a video on Monday, May 11, saying Apple will offer four models of the iPhone 12 this fall: a base model, a larger Max model, and “Pro” and “Pro Max” versions.
According to the leak, the base storage of entry-level phones has increased once again. The minimum storage on all models is 128GB, twice the current floor of 64GB.
The iPhone 12 will start with a 128GB model featuring at 5.4-inch OLED screen at $649. A 256GB model with a 6.1-inch OLED will run for $749. The iPhone 11, for comparison, had a base price of $699.
The Pro/ProMax versions of the phone, with 6.1- and 6.7-inch screens, will run for $749 and $849. Those ran from $999 and $1,099 last Sept.
The iPhone 12 Pro models will feature a stainless-steel body (versus an aluminum body on the standard versions). Pros will also have three camera lenses, compared to the two on a non-Pro version.
Prosser says the release of the iPhone 12 might be delayed a bit this year, with models due in October and possibly November, instead of the typical September launch. An announcement could still come in September, he said.
Here’s a quick look at the prices/features of each model, per Prosser.

Are you tired of paying for streaming services you never watch just to get a phone plan feature you actually want? T-Mobile has good news for you! The carrier is rolling out new plans, called T-Mix, in early November to replace its old Experience lineup with a build-your-own perks system called Picks.
The benefits you choose vary from streaming and gaming to food delivery, AI, satellite service, and phone discounts. But if you are satisfied with your existing plan, you can keep it.
Merely days after the iPhone Duo hit the shelves, images of broken screens on the phone started popping up across social media. Until now, it’s been unclear what’s causing the line of defective pixels that appears vertically along the crease, as well as horizontally, on the phone’s inner display.
Apple has finally acknowledged the issue, which has shown up on iPhone Duo units owned by customers as well as demo units in stores. In a statement shared with Bloomberg, Apple says that not all iPhone Duo units are affected and that those that are tend to show the display fault early on. The company added that users who experience problems with their iPhone Duo display should contact AppleCare for a replacement.
Not long ago, Apple treated independent repair like an act of outright hostility. The Cupertino giant locked down parts with serial-number pairing, while repair tools remained firmly out of reach of anyone outside its authorized repair network. More importantly, the company waged a legal and lobbying battle against right-to-repair legislation.
I've covered enough of these fights over the years to know what a shift looks like. That's why what happened in October 2026 genuinely caught me off guard. The day the iPhone Duo went on sale, what may be the most mechanically complex iPhone to date, Apple pulled off a surprising about-face. It published teardown-style repair manuals for a handful of major components.
