4th gen iPad Air and 8th gen iPad

While details about the chip inside it are still unknown, we’ve learned that the 4th generation iPad Air will have a single-lens rear camera. The LiDAR scanner and ultra-wide lens will remain exclusive to the 2020 iPad Pro. Apple will launch the new iPad Air with the following model variants: A2072, A2316, A2324, and A2325.

Apple is also working on a new entry-level iPad model, which is presumably the 8th generation iPad and it might be introduced tomorrow as well. The 8th generation iPad will keep the same design as the 7th generation, with larger edges around the screen and a home button with Touch ID built-in.

The company is most likely upgrading the entry-level iPad model with a new A-series processor, as the current 7th generation iPad features an A10 Fusion chip. The 8th generation iPad will be available in these models: A2270, A2428, and A2429.

iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 Pro

Rumors point to four new iPhone models this year, ranging from a 5.4-inch model to a 6.7-inch one. iPhone 12 is expected to be offered in two models with 5.4-inch and 6.1-inch displays, while the current iPhone 11 is only available in a single model with a 6.1-inch display. As Apple is upgrading this year’s iPhone midrange model from LCD to OLED displays, we may see larger resolution screens as well.

Our source also confirmed that iPhone 12 will have the same camera arrangement as iPhone 11, with only wide and ultra-wide lens, but no telephoto lens or LiDAR scanner. As you might expect, iPhone 12 will have Face ID and U1 chip in both models. iPhone 12 will be available in the following model variants: A2176, A2172, and A2403.

iPhone 12 Pro and iPhone 12 Pro Max will have a 6.1-inch and 6.7-inch OLED display, respectively. One of the most notable changes on this year’s high-end iPhone models besides the new design is the addition of a LiDAR scanner to the triple-lens camera system. The LiDAR scanner will be available in both Pro models, despite some rumors indicating that the new sensor would be exclusive to the 6.7-inch Pro model.

iPhone 12 Pro and iPhone 12 Pro Max are coming later this year with these variants: A2407, A2408, A2411, A2341, and A2342. It’s worth mentioning that all these model variants are the same ones found in Eurasian’s database a few months ago, and they’re usually related to different regions due to LTE and 5G bands.
