With the addition of 5G and a rumored new design, the iPhone 12 is one of the most anticipated phones in years.

"There are undoubtedly many consumers who held off on upgrading last year, expecting Apple to launch a 5G iPhone this year," said Avi Greengart, lead analyst for Techsponential.

"I do think the iPhone 12 will drive upgrades," said Carolina Milanesi, an analyst with Creative Strategies.

There are other iPhone 12 upgrades to get excited about, based on the leaks.

All four iPhone 12 models are expected to feature a fast new A14 Bionic chip that should blow Android phones away and all four should have an OLED display.

The 5.4-inch iPhone 12 and 6.1-inch iPhone 12 Max will reportedly pack two cameras, wile the 6.1-inch iPhone 12 Pro and 6.7-inch iPhone 12 Pro Max will get a third camera (telephoto) plus a LiDAR sensor for better AR performance.

However, the jury is out on whether the iPhone 12 Pro phones will sport a smooth 120Hz display.

"I do expect Apple to launch 4G-only iPhone configurations, segmented either by price or regional variation.".

Wedbush's Ives has also predicted that a lower cost, 4G-only iPhone 12 will hit the market early next year

Assuming the economy continues to struggle, the best cheap phones —  like the $349 Pixel 4a and $399 iPhone SE —  could become even more attractive
