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.

It’s the end of the road for these two iPhone models
Apple iPhone 6S Plus

Seeing your favorite handheld gaming device in a retro store has a unique way of making you feel old, but Apple might have topped it. According to the company, the iPhone XS Max and iPhone 6s Plus are now "vintage." They join the ranks of the iPhone 4 and even the iPad Pro 12.9-inch model.

It's not wholly unexpected. Apple declares a device vintage after five years, and that means it becomes more difficult to have that device repaired or to find replacement parts for it. Obsolete is applied to products that are more than seven years old, but sometimes certain variants get that label early.

The uncertain future cost of Apple’s Emergency SOS feature
Person holding iPhone 14 searching for Emergency SOS satellite.

It's been roughly two years since the launch of the iPhone 14 and its Emergency SOS via satellite feature. You might recall that during the first two years, Apple said it would be free to use but that it might require a subscription after that time, according to MacRumors. Last year, Apple extended the time limit by one more year, so you actually have until November 2025, when the trial period ends.

That's good news. The Emergency SOS feature is, quite literally, lifesaving. During April of this year, three university students lost their way in a canyon and used the feature to call for help. Another story arose in July where the feature came through once more in a moment of crisis. And if you keep digging, you'll find numerous other examples of how this tech is truly beneficial.

Google Gemini arrives on iPhone as a native app
the Google extensions feature on iPhone

Google announced Thursday that it has released a new native Gemini app for iOS that will give iPhone users free, direct access to the chatbot without the need for a mobile web browser.

The Gemini mobile app has been available for Android since February, when the platform transitioned from the older Bard branding. However, iOS users could only access the AI on their phones through either the mobile Google app or via a web browser. This new app provides a more streamlined means of chatting with the bot as well as a host of new (to iOS) features.
