4G-only iPhone 12 could launch in early 2021
- Apple will launch a fifth, cheaper iPhone 12 model without 5G support in early 2021, according to a new research note from Wedbush Securities analysts.
- The analysts previously predicted that a 4G iPhone 12 model would launch alongside the 5G models this fall, but they have recently adjusted their prediction.
- Apple has confirmed that the iPhone 12 will not launch in late September.
A few months ago, the countless contradictory rumors and reports about the release date of the iPhone 12 made it all but impossible to predict when Apple's next phone would arrive. Apple rarely comments on unannounced devices, but in an earnings call last month, Apple CFO Luca Maestri confirmed that supply of its next major smartphone would be "available a few weeks later" than the standard late September window due to the pandemic.
Other reports have claimed that when the release date does arrive, Apple will introduce four iPhone models, each of which will have OLED displays and 5G support. There were also rumors of a fifth model without 5G, but according to a new research note from Wedbush Securities, it won't see the light of day until 2021.
