For the iPhone 12 series, which is expected to be announced soon, leak information and rumors are appearing one after another. Max Weinbach (Pine), who handles leak information related to Apple, shares new information on iPhone 12 battery life and camera performance on Twitter.
According to Weinbach, the iPhone 12 introduces a 'dynamic zoning algorithm.' In addition, the in-camera module 'TrueDepth camera' has been redesigned, and the notch at the top of the display has shrunk horizontally and slightly expanded vertically.

The 'dynamic zoning algorithm' is shipping. The redesigned TrueDepth Camera System though, is not. Instead, a more 'tightly' arranged TrueDepth will be shipped with the 5.4 'iPhone. The notch shrinks horizontally, but increases slightly vertically.
In addition, the optical zoom and digital zoom of the main camera have improved dramatically. However, it seems that all zoom functions on iPhone 12 are software-dependent.

Digital and Optical Zoom will be getting a massive boost this year. The standard iPhone 12 will completely rely on software for this, still. You will get an significantly extended digital zoom, both quality and distance wise.
The improved digital zoom is said to be realized by combining multiple frames at different zoom levels. Digital zoom is like a hybrid of trimming and optical zoom, with algorithms based on Deep Fusion helping to handle correct alignment and sharpness, and smart HDR3 (improved smart HDR) doing the rest. That thing.

The battery life of the iPhone 12 Pro has been extended by at least one hour. However, as seen in the results of internal tests, the 5.4-inch iPhone 12 seems to have a shorter battery life than the iPhone 11 due to the influence of the form factor.

Expect at least an 1 hour battery life increase for the Pro Models. As seen in internal tests, the 5.4 'iPhone will perform worse than the current iPhone 11, which is expected because of its form factor.
Apple has been rumored to be developing a movie portrait mode 'for quite some time,' but weinbach said it hasn't been able to confirm the existence of a movie portrait mode on the iPhone 12. ..

We did not hear anything that confidentially points to portrait video for iPhone 12. It has been in development for quite some time now, but we cannot explicitly confirm its existence for this years models.
In addition, Apple plans to deliver a special event from 2:00 on October 14, 2020 Japan time. GIGAZINE will also update the event in real time, so stay tuned.
