Apple October 13 Hi, Speed Event

Apple just announced its 'Hi, Speed' iPhone 12 event for October 13. While we would have loved the smartphone to be announced last month, it's better late than never, so we're glad. Even though the iPhone 12 lineup is the most important announcement that we're looking forward to, the company will potentially announce other products as well. If you're looking forward, here's what to expect from Apple's 'Hi, Speed' October 13 event.

Here's Everything That You Can Expect From Apple's October 13 'Hi, Speed' Event

Last month, we were expecting Apple to announce the iPhone 12 series alongside other hardware products. However, that did not pan out as some leakers had speculated. Instead, the company announced the iPad 8, iPad Air 4, and the new Apple Watch Series 6 along with Apple Watch SE. Nonetheless, there are a handful of new products that we're expecting Apple to announce this year as well and the 'Hi, Speed' event might act as the perfect stage. Here's what to expect from the October 13 event.

iPhone 12 Series

Apple's iPhone 12 lineup will bring major changes to the smartphone compared to the current iPhone 11 series. For one, the radical design will be boxier, much like the iPhone 5. There will be four OLED display variants of the handset - a 5.4-inch iPhone 12, 6.1-inch iPhone 12, 6.1-inch iPhone 12 Pro, and the 6.7-inch iPhone 12 Pro Max. Apple will also introduce 5G connectivity and a LiDAR scanner on the larger iPhone 12 Pro Max. It will be powered by the new A14 chipset so you can expect blazing fast performance. The iPhone 12 should have been launched in September but it has been delayed due to the ongoing health crises and now we expect it to be released on October 13 at the company's 'Hi, Speed' event.
