If manufacturers want to bring new devices onto the market, they must first register them with the Eurasian Economic Commission (EEC). Apple has now registered ten devices, including nine iPhone models.
A few days ago, DigiTimes reported reported, according to which Apple has reached the EVT (technical validation) phase in the development of the iPhone 12 series. This essentially means that the devices are almost finished and only "product verification" is pending before mass production can begin. According to DigiTimes, mass production of the iPhone 12 series will begin in July. Today's discovery (via MySmartPrice) has now officially confirmed the report. According to the report, Apple has registered ten new devices in the EEC database. Nine iPhone models and one Mac device were documented. The Mac has the model identifier "A2330" and was registered as a desktop computer. According to the documentation, the operating system running is macOS 10.15.
Four iPhone 12 models in different variants
The discovery confirms recently published leaks that Apple plans to unveil an iMac with a brand new design – presumably at WWDC 2020 on March 22. June – you can find more information below. Further on, there are nine devices registered in the "Smartphone" category. The model identifiers are: A2176, A2172, A2341, A2342, A2399, A2403, A2407, A2408, and A2411. iOS 13 has been registered as the operating system.
However, this is not very important, as Apple updates the database several times throughout the year. It can therefore be assumed that these are the four iPhone 12 models in different variants. If the numerous reports turn out to be true, Apple will introduce a 5.4- and 6.1-inch iPhone as the direct successor to the iPhone 11, while another 6.1- and 6.7-inch device will enter the race as a Pro series.
