'iPhone 12 releases in 2020 with five models,' says Apple insider

iPhone 12 is already in news, particularly after an Apple insider reveals its release date. According to BGR, iPhone 2020 is releasing next year in 2020 along with five other models. The news is gaining wide spread attention of all the Apple fan boys as they wait eagerly for an update. iPhone 11 over iPhone X was a good upgrade; however, it wasn’t a major one in a sense that iPhone X was the real deal breaker.
