iPhone 12 series has been in the news for quite some time and it is speculated that Apple will unveil the devices later this year. But as we are still awaiting the confirmation about the phones from the company, several reports have indicated that the new iPhone series will have A14 Bionic SoC along with 5G connectivity. Now, a reliable tipster has claimed that the rumored 5.4-inch and 6.1-inch variants will likely only support sub-6GHz 5G connectivity. It also stated that the 6.1-inch iPhone 12 Pro and the 6.7-inch iPhone 12 Pro Max will support both sub-6GHz 5G and mmWave 5G technology.

The latest leaks were leaked by the reliable tipster and tech analyst Jon Prosser who last week also tipped the alleged prices of the four rumored iPhone 12 models. Prosser indicated since the 6.1-inch variant of iPhone 12 is not using the high-end mmWave 5G technology, therefore, making the phone cost only $50 more than the iPhone 11 with the same screen size. To put this in perspective, there are mainly two types of 5G technology that are widely adopted. These are the mmWave 5G technology that offers higher speeds while its rival sub-6GHz technology is more commonly used. The tipster claims that the rumored 6.1-inch iPhone 12 Pro and 6.7-inch iPhone 12 Pro Max support both sub-6GHz 5G and mmWave 5G technology. Prosser, last week revealed that the iPhone 12 is likely to be priced at $649 whereas the 6.7-inch iPhone 12 Pro Max is tipped to cost $1,099.
