I noticed that the iPhone 12 icon was added to a Twitter account called Apple Software Updates, which analyzes Apple's latest software updates. According to this account, Apple is adding four new icon images on iCloud on October 12, local time.

Have you ever noticed those images in the iCloud or the Apple ID website? Apple has uploaded 4 images for the iPhone13,1 13,2 13,3 and 13,4. No released iPhone uses those identifiers (the SE 2 is 12,8) ) ???? Just saying that those images are identical to the one used for the 11 Pro pic.twitter.com/7uRuuKu8aN

9to5Mac, Apple-related news media, succeeded in obtaining a high-quality version of this icon image by analyzing iCloud. Since all the added icons are for the iPhone, it can be inferred that the iPhone 12 announced in 2020 will be a four-model development as reported so far.

Although these icons appear in the web version of iCloud and the Find My app, they are very small in size, so it's difficult to see the details from the icons. However, if you compare the iPhone XR / 11 icon with the iPhone 12 icon, you can clearly see that the size of the notch at the top of the screen is slightly different.

Another leak information suggests that the iPhone 12's notch will be narrower, and according to this information, the notch will be narrower in width, but slightly wider in height.

Based on the leak information and rumors so far, it is said that the iPhone 12 series in 2020 will be four models: iPhone 12, iPhone 12 mini, iPhone 12 Pro, iPhone 12 Pro Max. The terminal design has been changed from a curved design to a linear design, with at least one notch in the new model being slightly smaller.

In addition, it seems that the icon image uploaded to iCloud includes an unknown Apple TV, and 9to5Mac also mentions the possibility that a new Apple TV will appear. However, it seems that the design of Apple TV is the same as the existing Apple TV 4K.
