The rumor mill continues to be dominated by iPhone 12 reports. Now new details about the specifications and release dates have been released.
The Japanese Apple blog Macotakara claims to have received new information regarding the release of the new iPhone generation. According to the report, "several Chinese suppliers" are claiming that the iPhone 12 could be announced in the second half of October due to the COVID-19 pandemic - not in September as usual. An iPhone 12 with LTE will be available immediately at the presentation, while the 5G versions will not hit the shelves until November.

The Japanese blog contradicts previous reports that Apple could hold the presentation in September as usual. However, the rumor should be viewed with skepticism for another reason. Macotakara speaks of an LTE iPhone. In addition to the well-known analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, numerous other sources claim that all four devices will have 5G. However, there has been no mention of pure LTE connectivity so far. Although a staggered market launch of the four models is still not ruled out, Kuo himself emphasized that a presentation remains under debate in September.
