After wrapping up its much-awaited iPhone 12 launch, Apple unveiled an exciting line-up with a wide-ranging price bracket at midnight, on Wednesday. The 'Hi-Speed' event revealed four new iPhones, in brand new designs and they will also be able to support 5G wireless networks. Apart from these, it also introduced the HomePod mini, a more affordable (and a mini) version of the Apple HomePod smart speaker. If you missed out on catching the event live, we've got you covered with the important highlights that you can brush up on:

Equipped with 5G wireless networks and a sleek new design, the iPhone 12 now has two rear cameras for night time photography.
The launch of iPhone 12

The launch that left most users at on the edge of their seats: the iPhone 12 series. Equipped with 5G wireless networks and a sleek new design, the iPhone 12 now has two rear cameras that will help you get stellar nighttime photos. The new line-ups feature an expansive, edge-to-edge Super Retina® XDR display. So, expect a brighter, more immersive viewing experience -- along with a new ceramic shield front cover. This takes the durability on your iPhone a notch-up; more than any other iPhone has ever had.

Introducing the HomePod Mini

A chic, new development included the launch of the HomePod Mini. Now in a more contemporary, rounded-shape the HomePod Mini will have similar touch controls on the top. It also allows other features at an affordable range, including Siri integration and quick-synching with a nearby iPhone when required.

Availability: From November 16 onwards.

Price: INR 9,900

The MagSafe Charger Duo can help charge two devices at a time

Other updates:

  • Wireless charging: Apple reintroduced the wireless charging feature with its iPhone 12 range, including two different options. Apple introduced the MagSafe Charger, once again, for charging one device at a time and the MagSafe Charger Duo for charging two at a time. It now also includes a flip-up spot to charge your Apple Watch.

  • No headphones, wall-chargers: Much to the dismay of several, Apple has excluded the headphones jack and the wall-charger from the iPhone box this time around. In fact, you will not even have the wired EarPods in your box, and will only find a USB Type-C cable.
