Regarding cameras, the smartphone features a 12-megapixel wide-angle shooter, a 12-megapixel telephoto camera and a 12-megapixel ultra-wide shooter.
The iPhone 12 offers a very similar array of specs, including a 6.1-inch Super Retina XDR OLED display with a resolution of 2532 x 1770 pixels, 5G, an A14 Bionic chip and the same new design as the iPhone 12 Pro. On the other hand, the camera is different from the iPhone 12 Pro’s three shooters because it lacks the telephoto lens. The iPhone 12 features a 12 megapixel wide and 12-megapixel ultra-wide camera.
