Is iPhone 12 cheaper than 11?
Unfortunately, no. The iPhone 11 base variant starts at $699 SRP (although now, since the launch of the iPhone 12, we’ve seen it drop to $599), whereas the iPhone 12 starts at $699 for the Mini version. The base iPhone 12 model starts at a pricier $799, so the answer is: no, the iPhone 12 is not cheaper than the 11. Check out the table below for a more detailed comparison:
| Model | Price (USD) |
| iPhone 11 | Starts at $699 |
| iPhone 11 Pro | Starts at $999 |
| iPhone 11 Pro Max | Starts at $1,099 |
| iPhone 12 Mini | Starts at $699 |
| iPhone 12 | Starts at $799 |
| iPhone 12 Pro Max | Start at $999 |
Why is iPhone 12 so cheap?
Although the iPhone 12 is being offered at the same premium prices we’ve come to expect from Apple, the new iPhone 12 Mini is a refreshing, more affordable alternative to the company’s flagship line of smartphones. The iPhone 12 Mini is smaller, so it costs less to make, and is therefore available for cheaper than the standard variant. Plus, compared to competitor flagships, the iPhone 12 and its variants are among the most affordable flagships, especially compared to the $1000+ Samsung Galaxy S Series Ultra phones.
In which country iPhone 12 is cheapest?
If you’re looking to buy an iPhone 12, then consider checking out the countries where it’s sold for the lowest prices. The cheapest iPhone 12’s in the world can be bought in Japan (~USD705), the United Arab Emirates (~USD816), and the U.S (USD799).
If you want to avoid too much overpaying, then don’t buy an iPhone in India where it’s sold the most expensive.
Is the iPhone 12 made in China?
Technically, yes. The iPhone 12 is partly made and assembled in China, but it’s also partly made and assembled in several other countries like Taiwan, the Philippines, Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand, and Vietnam all take part in the manufacturing of iPhones. As part of Apple’s global supply chain, iPhones travel all over the world for assembly, so to say that iPhones are made in China is inaccurate.
Is iPhone 12 dual SIM?
The iPhone 12, the iPhone 12 Pro Max and the iPhone 12 Mini are all Dual SIM! All three models can take a single physical nano-SIM and another single digital eSIM, so you can enjoy multiple lines on your iPhone 12 just like with the iPhone 11.
However, there are some caveats. While there are plenty of advantages to dual SIM – like having multiple lines, varied service availability, and separate service options, your iPhone 12 and its variants will only be able to access 5G when only a single SIM is installed.
Where is My iPhone 12 Charger & Headphone?
The latest iPhone 12 doesn’t come with a power adaptor in the box as an effort to reduce package wastage. The iPhone 12 can be charged with Apple’s new wireless MagSafe charging ($59, sold separately) and is compatible with current Qi wireless charging pads. But for those who miss the adaptor, its still available for sale at $29.
oh, if you noticed, the standard headphone is also missing in the box. Its still available for sale at $29 as well.
iPhone 12 Singapore Release (rumour)
updated: 12th October 2020
iPhone 12 Release Date on October 13
We may see iPhone 12 arriving – 3rd week of October 2020 in Singapore.
Kindly refer to price range (non official) in the table below.
However, due to the increasingly difficult circumstances brought about by the COVID-19 pandemic, production on the new iPhone – as well as other products that Apple has in the pipeline – has seen more than its fair share of production delays and obstacles.
With all the unpredictable variables surrounding this year’s product launches, it’s understandable why Apple has yet to confirm or deny any of the rumors circulating around on the internet. Understandable as it may be, it doesn’t change the fact that there are millions of people right now who are trying to figure out what’s true, what’s not, and what’s possible.
In Singapore, Apple dominates the smartphone space with an impressive 33% market share – a full five points above Samsung. With its popularity and demand in Singapore, we’ve decided to cut through rumour and baseless conjecture to bring you the latest news on the iPhone 12 Singapore based on reliable leaks and inside information. Of course, nobody can be 100% sure of anything right now, but hopefully we can bring you as close to the truth as possible.
Read on to find out more about what we know so far about the iPhone 12 and its variants, as well as some potential features and design possibilities that we are likely to see when that product finally launches, hopefully by the end of the year.
