iPhone 12 faces major camera issue right before launch - Tom's Guide

Yet another bump in the road to the iPhone 12's launch.

Yet another production issue runs the risk of stalling the iPhone 12's launch, and this one is all down to the camera.

Analyst Ming-Chi Kuo released a note late this week stating that the coating on the wide-angle camera of the 5.4- and 6.1-inch iPhone 12 models (the standard variants — not the iPhone 12 Pro series) has been cracking during high-heat stress testing.

As a result, this hitch in quality assurance may not delay the iPhone 12 any further than it's already been delayed, and Apple might even be able to use this episode as a bargaining chip to negotiate a lower price from the firm that provided the faulty units.

First, Apple confirmed in a July 30 earnings call that the iPhone 12 range would miss a September launch by "a few weeks.".

In fact, the iPhone 12 launch may be staggered, with the two 6.1-inch models in the middle of the range offered earlier than the cheapest 5.4-inch iPhone 12 and most-expensive 6.7-inch iPhone 12 Pro Max arriving later.
