Original title: Guo Mingyi: Apple will release five new iPhones next year, four of which support 5g
According to the morning of December 6, guomingyi, an analyst at Tianfeng international securities, said in his latest report that Apple will release five new iPhones next year. Among them, one was released in the first half and four in the second half, while supporting 5g was the most important technology upgrade for the new iPhone in the second half of next year.
For the new iPhone released in the first half of 2020, Guo said the iPhone is called iPhone se2, with a screen size of 4.7 inches and LCD screens, which are the same in appearance as iPhone 8.
For the new iPhone released in the second half of 2020, Guo Mingyi said there are four new iPhones, which are the same in appearance as iPhone 4. All four iPhones are equipped with Qualcomm x55 baseband, thus supporting 5g, and supporting 5g is the most important technology upgrade.
Guo said the differences between the four iPhones were mainly on screen size and rear camera specifications. Among them, the iPhone with 5.4 "OLED screen is equipped with rear dual camera, iPhone with 6.1" OLED screen is equipped with rear dual camera, and OLED iPhone with 6.1 inch screen will be equipped with rear three shots and TOF, and the biggest one is 6.7-inch OLED iPhone, which will have three pictures and TOF.
However, for the four iPhone types that support 5g networks, Guo said Apple would only support sub-6g or sub-6g + mmwave models according to different countries.
For countries without 5g or low penetration, Apple may use software to turn off 5g features of the sub-6g iPhone to reduce the cost of purchasing Qualcomm x55 baseband, Guo said.
The iPhone models supporting sub-6g+mmwave are expected to be released in five markets, including the United States, Canada, Japan, South Korea and the UK. Guo expects that the shipments of sub-6g + mmwave iPhone models account for about 15– 20% of the new 2h20iphones.
Guo expects that, thanks to 5g upgrade, new design and better product portfolio, iPhone shipments will increase by 6% to 2.05– 2100million in 2020, and 8% to 2.2– 250million in 2021.
In addition, Guo expects apple to release the iPhone se2 plus in the first half of 2021, with a screen size of 5.5 or 6.1 inches, and will be fully screen designed. Because the iPhone se2 plus does not support face IDS, the Liuhai area is smaller and touch ID will be integrated with the side power button.
For the iPhone launched in the second half of 2021, Guo said the highest end models could cancel the lightning connection hole and provide a more complete wireless experience. Guo said Apple will create more differences between the top-end and other high-end models, which will help to improve the shipment volume of the most high-end models and iPhone ASP.
