New iPhone Models
Apple will be releasing four models, each with a whole new set of capabilities. First off, we have the entry-level iPhone 12, featuring 5G capabilities. Then there’s the iPhone 12 Mini for those looking for a more compact device. On the Pro side, Apple announced two new devices — the iPhone 12 Pro, followed by its more ample friend the iPhone 12 Pro Max.
The iPhone 12 and its Mini companion will be available in a range of colours including black, white, red, blue and green. Unfortunately those who loved their purple and yellow iPhone 11’s will be disappointed. For the iPhone 12 Pro and his buddy the iPhone Pro Max, you’re options will include silver, gold, graphite and blue.
Australian Prices
As usual with any price conversion, Australia’s pricing for the new set of iPhones is higher than that of the U.S. counterpart. For the base iPhone 12 you’ll be set back $1349, a notch above the starting price for last year’s iPhone 11. However, if you’re looking to save a couple of dollars, Apple you can trade in your old device and bring that down to $969.
If you’re looking for a more budget conscious device, the iPhone 12 Mini will start at $1199. And if you’re looking to trade in your old phone, that’ll be knocked down to a modest $819.
On the Pro side of things, the starting rate for the iPhone Pro is $1699. Not bad for an iPhone 12 Pro, but even better if you trade in a worthy device and drop that down to $1209.
