It's not unusual for Apple to release more than one version of its latest iPhone. But this year's rumored iPhone 12 is expected to come in a whopping four different variants, compared to previous years when Apple would launch two or three versions of its newest smartphone.
Two of those models are expected to be successors to the iPhone 11 Pro and iPhone 11 Pro Max. If the reports and rumors so far are to be believed, Apple's next "Pro" iPhone will have a triple-lens camera like last year's models, a Lidar scanner like the new iPad Pro, and a refreshed design among other changes.
We're expecting to learn more about the anticipated iPhone 12 Pro Max along with the rest of Apple's new iPhone lineup at an event on October 13. Apple typically debut its new smartphones in September, but the company said it expects to receive supply of its next-generation iPhones a few weeks later than usual this year because of the coronavirus pandemic.
Here's a look at what we know about the iPhone 12 Pro and iPhone 12 Pro Max so far based on the latest rumors and reports.
