Blast past fast.

A14 Bionic, the fastest chip in a smartphone. An edge-to-edge OLED display. Ceramic Shield with four times better drop performance. And Night mode on every camera. iPhone 12 has it all — in two perfect sizes.

Ceramic Shield. Clearly tougher than any smartphone glass.

iPhone already had the toughest glass in a smartphone. So to dramatically increase the durability of iPhone 12, we had to introduce an all-new material.

Nanoscale ceramic crystals

Enter Ceramic Shield. It’s made by introducing nano-ceramic crystals — which are actually harder than most metals — into glass. Sounds simple, but it’s incredibly difficult because most ceramics aren’t transparent. By controlling the type of crystals and degree of crystallinity, we developed an exclusive formula that maximises the toughness of the ceramic while remaining optically clear. This was the breakthrough that made Ceramic Shield ideally suited for the display. It’s a first in any smartphone, and it’s tougher than any smartphone glass.

Dual ion-exchange process

Tough is great, but we also wanted to make it scratch-resistant. So, using the same dual ion-exchange process we use on the back glass, we protect against nicks, scratches, and everyday wear and tear.

4x better drop performance

Beyond Ceramic Shield, there’s one more thing that contributes to the durability of the front cover. It sits flush to the edge of the phone, which helps protect it even more. Altogether, we’ve quadrupled the drop performance — the largest year-on-year improvement ever for iPhone.

H2OK

Even better spill and splash resistance

A14 Bionic is the fastest chip in a smartphone. And it pushes what’s possible. Like crunching trillions of operations on the Neural Engine. Or shooting in Dolby Vision — even pro movie cameras can’t do that. It’s super-efficient for great battery life. And it’s ahead of its time, prepared to power pretty much anything that comes next.

*Same chip as iPhone 12 Pro

Our best iPhone display ever

Vastly more contrast. Incredible colour accuracy. A huge jump in pixel density. Wow. Just wow. OLED delivers brighter brights, darker blacks, and higher resolution for everything you look at. This is the best iPhone display we’ve ever made, and it goes all the way to the edge.

Both the Wide and Ultra Wide cameras now have Night mode — and it’s better than ever at capturing incredible low-light shots. The new Wide camera brings in 27 per cent more light. So whether you take photos by daylight or by moonlight, you’ll get a level of detail and colour that wasn’t possible before.

Evenings have entered the picture.

Night mode

senses when light is low and kicks in automatically, maintaining clarity while capturing beautiful vibrant colour. All you have to do is start snapping.

Deep Fusion,

in mid to low light, analyses multiple exposures to maximise detail. Check out the texture in the wood, fabric and crystal. And the Ultra Wide gets you a heroic perspective.

Night mode selfies

Look your best. Even in the dark.

Night-time is the right time for a selfie. Because Night mode and a slew of other great features are now on the front camera. Like Deep Fusion, Smart HDR 3, Dolby Vision recording and more.

Automatic magic.

Smart HDR 3

balances the elements in a shot, bringing out detail in the subject and trees while retaining the rich colour of the sky — even at high noon.

Face it. Nothing beats Portrait mode.

Portrait mode

is even better at artfully blurring the background to put all the focus on your subject. Lovely, isn’t it?

Take great photos even further by choosing from six creative lighting effects, like High‑Key Light Mono, Natural Light and Studio Light.

Video

Low lights.

Camera.

How do you improve on the highest-quality video in a smartphone? Make it even better in low light — a full 27 per cent better. That means no hour is off limits for more beautifully detailed video. Then there’s Night mode Time-lapse. Just prop up your iPhone and let the light trails begin.

And boom.
You own a film studio.

Now you can record 4K HDR video with Dolby Vision. Edit in Photos or iMovie. Then zap it to your TV using AirPlay to see all that colour and detail. It’s a start-to-finish cinematic experience — found only on iPhone. Which comes in handy when your dog does something adorable.

First camera ever to record in Dolby Vision.

Beautifully

stackable.

Snap on a new MagSafe case, wallet, or both. (Fear not, the wallet is shielded so it’s safe for credit cards.)

Turbo chargeable.

Magnets align themselves perfectly every time for faster wireless charging.

5G on iPhone

Ultra-fast wireless

Let’s speed things up.

iPhone 12 delivers LTE at up to 2Gb/s. So you can download shows, upload photos and stream high-quality video even faster. And you can do it in more places, because iPhone 12 has up to 32 LTE bands — more than any other smartphone.

Get straight to

the good stuff.

iOS 14 is packed with shortcuts that get you just what you want, just when you want it.

Pinned conversations in Messages put the people you talk to most at the top of the list.

Widgets have been redesigned to serve up info you want at a glance — right on your Home screen.

App Clips let you use a small part of an app to quickly do things like pay for parking or order a takeaway.

Privacy is built in.

·····················

iPhone is designed to protect your information. Face ID data doesn’t leave your iPhone and is never backed up to iCloud or anywhere else. All the iMessages you send are encrypted. iOS shows you an app’s privacy practices before you download it. And the list goes on.

iPhone 12 works with existing power adapters, EarPods with Lightning Connector, and USB‑A to Lightning cables. Because there are billions of those out in the world, new ones often go unused. So we’re removing them from the box — across the entire iPhone family. This reduces carbon emissions and avoids the mining and use of precious materials. It also shrinks the package, allowing more boxes per shipment and fewer shipments overall. We’re transitioning our manufacturing partners to renewable energy as well. Altogether, this eliminates over 2 million tonnes of carbon emissions annually.

To charge your new iPhone, you can continue to use your USB‑A to Lightning cable. Or you can take advantage of fast charging with the USB‑C to Lightning cable now included in the box, which works with existing USB‑C power adapters and computer ports.

Carbon savings equal to 450,000 fewer cars on the road per year
