The most exciting Apple leaks for 2020

Apple product leaks may be some of the most exciting news of the year. In the year 2020, with all the events we are going through, Apple news and the leaks that appear from time to time remain one of the most important news materials following up, ambiguity and excitement by millions from all over the world, and since the half of the year is about to pass, a lot of Leaks about Apple and its various products, whether devices or operating systems. Here are the most prominent leaks in the previous months, including what has been achieved.

IPhone SE

The leak has already been achieved ... With the beginning of the new year 2020, we began to realize that Apple is already working on the new generation of iPhone SE 2016, which will be the successor to the iPhone 8, but with stronger and higher specifications to keep pace with other phones.

While news, expectations and leaks started pouring in about the new iPhone device, expectations were divided that the expected device would either be SE 2 or iPhone 9, but 9to5Mac, which specializes in news of the American company, has settled that controversy before the date Device issuance In a full two weeks, where he stated that the expected device would be the iPhone SE only, but the most interesting and accurate leaks were by the famous leaker John Prosser, who accurately determined the actual date of the launch of the iPhone SE 2020, which was on April 15th. It is reported that Apple itself confirmed the dimensions of the device when it published a cover for the iPhone and said it was valid for the iPhone 8 and SE.

A distinctive color for the upcoming iPhone

It seems that Apple intends to release its iPhones in distinctive colors every year. Whereas last year the company launched the iPhone 11 Pro in a distinctive color called Midnight Green, a leak from the famous EverythingApplePro YouTube channel claims that Apple intends to launch the iPhone 12 Pro in a new color, Navy Blue, and according to that leak, The Pro phones are the only ones that will decorate that color, while the standard versions of the iPhone will be released in an expanded assortment of vibrant and more attractive colors.

Smaller iPhone

There were rumors about Apple's intention to release an iPhone with small dimensions, but those rumors did not live up to specifying those dimensions, until Philip Curry of the famous EverythingApplePro YouTube channel revealed the true dimensions of the new device, which tells us that the iPhone will be It is equipped with a screen measuring 5.4 inches.

Philip added that the new device will be more pocket-friendly than the 4.7-inch SE phone, due to the phone's innovative design that reduces screen frame space to a minimum. However, those small dimensions are not believed to be for the iPhone 12 Pro, but rather for the standard version.

Camera improvements

Since the beginning of the year, expectations have been trying to unveil what Apple will offer in its expected phones for the current year. The most accurate of these expectations is that any improvements to the cameras of the iPhone devices will be limited to the Pro category only, while the standard versions of the iPhone 12 will be equipped with the usual dual lenses.

Max Weinbach of the popular YouTube channel EverythingApplePro released his predictions at the beginning of this year that Apple intends to increase the number of pixels in its cameras this year, to reach 64 megapixels, but more recent leaks have spread recently indicating that Apple will release its devices with triple lenses. , In addition to the LiDAR scanner, in addition to not mentioning the improvements that Apple might make to its cameras, and this could be an indication that Apple may increase the pixels in its cameras, but in the versions of the iPhone 13 next year 2021.

We tend to consider the addition of the LiDAR scanner to the iPhone 12Pro cameras as the much anticipated improvement, but not the increase in the number of pixels, as Apple is not passionate about increasing the pixels in its cameras.

IOS 14

9to5Mac was able to obtain a leaked version of the iPhone operating system version 14 early this year, and many of its unique features and characteristics were identified, which included improving system messages, support for augmented reality, and the presence of a multi-tasking interface, with a completely new design Home screen, and more.

But the most characteristic of those additions that will be provided with version 14 are the health features that coincide with the world's suffering from the Covid 19 pandemic, and the latest operating systems for Apple products have been provided with these additions, especially the iPhone operating system version 14, and the Apple smart watch operating system. The seventh version, and those additions included sleep tracking, blood pressure monitoring, and other features.

And speaking of the Apple smart watch operating system, Apple has made available to its smart watch users a variety of interfaces, which the user can download from the company’s store.

But the most characteristic of the additions and features of the new version of the operating system, is its support for the mouse and trackpads, which have already appeared this year in the latest update to OS 14, which is limited only to iPadOS 13.4 and iPad pro, in addition to the Magic Keyboard.

On our part, the expectation that is close to certainty is that Apple will return to surprise the world with some important things, no matter how early version 14 was revealed for its release, but Apple may make a number of changes to it, and issue a bit different from the leaks, and all of this will become clear when Apple announces Officially about the new version of the operating system in the default event WWDC to be held next month.

Return to the iPad Air

This year witnessed the unveiling of the iPad Pro tablet from the scene, leaving many as a question about what Apple intends to do about the rest of the tablets that do not belong to the Pro family.

Last year, Apple returned to the iPad Air, and made it a mid-range device that combines the standard iPad version with the iPad Pro 2017.

Regarding the iPad this year, many rumors and expectations suggest that the new iPad Air will be issued similar in design to the iPad Pro, with the screen frame removed, and the high-cost face reader will be abandoned, to be replaced by the touch sensor, which will be integrated Inside the big screen.

We very much agree with popular expectations, for several reasons:

The difficulty of differentiating between the standard iPad and iPad Air in terms of exterior design for many of the company's users

Increasing the size of the iPad Air screen might be the right place to integrate the touch sensor that Apple has been talking about for many years.

Over-ear release

For a long time, news was circulating about Apple developing its own headphones, but over the years, that headphone was just a project that was not completed yet.

But John Prosser leaks about the iPhone operating system version 14, which contained a code related to the headphones, is what indicates that this year is the birth of the iPod Studio, and that the company has already started production.

From our point of view, we agree that this year will witness the debut of the iPod studio headphones, but Apple has not announced it at the next WWDC, but will postpone its announcement until later this year.

Fitness exercises on the big screen

A follower of Apple’s activities, notes the need for both fitness programs and Streaming Boxes to improve, to keep competition in the market.

Hence, the iOS 14 leaks appeared talking about what is called Seymour, which is the codename for a fitness app that uses the Apple TV screen and syncs with the Apple smart watch.

It is reported that the design of the new Apple TV Workout application has already been completed, so that the user can see how difficult the workout is using the Apple smartwatch.

In our opinion, it is an excellent step by Apple to improve the fitness system on the one hand, and to give Apple TV an important advantage that sets it apart from the rest of the competitors.

The miniature Apple Pencil

In 2015, Apple attached a magnetic stylus to the iPad Pro, and it was met with approval by users, so many of them suggested that a similar pen be present with the iPhone devices, and Tim Cook once hinted at that, except that talking about that pen It was nothing more than hearsay without evidence.

However, this year, some leaks of the iPhone 12 Pro have sparked those rumors and brought them back to life, as there are leaks of a magnetic edge on one side of the phone, very similar to the edge on the iPad Pro 2015, which the stylus was attached to.

In our reading of the current scene, we are ruling out the attachment of a pen with the iPhone 12 Pro for this year. On the one hand, the length of time in which the proposal to use the pen was discussed with the iPhone devices, without anything confirming or denying that, made the issue lose its appeal and importance. On the other hand, using the pen with the iPad is logical, but it is not the case with the iPhone.

AirTags location tracking devices

He threw a video clip on Apple's official YouTube channel, pebbles in the still water, and took notice of all competitors.

It is about location tracking devices that there are many assurances that Apple is working on something about it. Although Apple has not released anything official about AirTags, the video posted on YouTube clearly indicates such a device. Although the video was intended to teach users how to wipe their devices.

Regardless of whether Apple intentionally referred to tracking devices or not, it is certain that this year will witness the emergence of this product, especially since the release of the iPhone operating system last year included a code for that.

Game controller

It is no secret that Apple since last year has been paying increasing attention to games, especially when it released Apple Arcade, which is what made rumors arise about Apple's tendency to turn Apple TV into something bigger than a gaming platform.

Apple's interest in games, and even financing and development, in addition to the presence of a symbol for a console for virtual reality and augmented reality (similar to Vive) in the iPhone OS version 14 likely that Apple is working on issuing a game controller, especially since it has previously provided support for units Controlling mainstream games to iPhones, iPads and Apple TVs in OS version 13 last year.

This is what makes us face difficulty in anticipating what Apple can offer this year regarding gaming consoles, and it can be said that Apple may offer Apple Arcade with Apple TV accompanied by its own console in one integrated package.

Augmented Reality Glasses

Rumors have swirled recently that Apple plans to produce Oculus-like headphones, followed by an advanced lineup of traditional eyeglasses. These rumors were supported by a leak from a meeting inside Apple stating that the production of these units will be in 2022.

John Prosser comes to turn all these rumors upside down, as he claimed that he has almost certain information that Apple is planning to launch Apple glasses in conjunction with the launch of the new version of the iPhone for this year, but the events of the Corona pandemic are what prompted Apple to delay this, but Apple glasses - he claimed - will see the light in late 2021.

From our point of view, Prosser's expectations are not impossible, as Apple has been working for many years on augmented reality technologies, and Apple may already have prototypes for Apple glasses, but the expected time for the emergence of this product, which approaches a year, is a time that Apple is using to exit The product is without errors or defects, as it does not want to repeat the failed AirPower experience again, and this time is the opportunity that Apple gives itself until the product comes out in the best condition.

Steve Jobs glasses

Prosser has exaggerated his expectations about Apple's glasses, launching a rumor that Apple intends to release glasses with the iconic design of the glasses Steve Jobs used to wear, as a kind of tribute, and will be sold as a special edition modeled after the gold Apple Watch in 2015.

But the truth is that we are not convinced of this, Tim Cook will not use his late partner and founder of Apple Steve Jobs as a material to market his products, even if that is for the purpose of honor. Technically speaking, there is no available way to put all the capabilities of Apple glasses in that narrow frame that characterized Steve Jobs' glasses, and all that can be convinced is the existence of prototypes of Wayfarer glasses with thick edges.

Finally, hardly six months of 2020 have passed and minute leaks have appeared frighteningly about Apple products, yet we will have to wait until we see those leaks turn into reality during the most exciting and insane year yet.
