mmWave 5G only on the iPhone 12 Pro Max
A new report from Fast Company, citing “a wireless industry source,” says that only the largest and most expensive iPhone 12 model—the 6.7-inch iPhone 12 Pro Max—will support millimeter-wave 5G. All the iPhone 12 models will support 5G in the sub-6GHz spectrum. The source says only the largest phone has the size necessary for the antenna array used in mmWave and the larger battery necessary to offset the increased power draw it requires.
Ugh... I hope this isn't the case. If so I'm going to need to hold off until I can handle the phones in person and see if the Super Duper Mega Pro Max is doable, or if I'm holding off for another upgrade cycle until they put mmWave in normal size phones.Well then, Super Pro Max it is I guess.
