- The iPhone 12 series is widely expected to feature a new design, although the handsets will likely feature displays with notches at the top, housing Apple’s iconic Face ID camera system.
- A purported leak from iOS 14 seems to suggest an iPhone 12 version will come without a notch, however.
- The leaked illustration seems to indicate that Face ID components might be placed inside the top bezel, but that’s hardly likely to happen.

The iPhone X was the first iPhone to feature a new design since the iPhone 6. The new handset featured a gorgeous, almost perfect all-screen design, and sparked some immediate controversies. First of all, the Touch ID fingerprint sensor was gone for good. Secondly, the notch at the top looked hideous, ruining the phone’s symmetry. But as Apple detailed the Face ID functionality, it was clear the notch would be a necessary compromise on many iPhones to come. The tiny bezel at the top of all iPhones launched since late 2017 houses one of the most sophisticated pieces of technology Apple devices, the 3D face recognition camera. Few other handset vendors managed to replicate Face ID, and Google needed two years to get it on its Pixel phones, although Google’s Pixel 4 design is hardly beautiful.
The iPhone 12, which may be delayed a few months because of the worldwide coronavirus crisis, is supposed to feature several design changes, several reports have claimed so far. Apple will deviate slightly from the iPhone X design template used in the past couple of years, but the notch should be present on all iPhone 12 versions. A report now claims at least one iPhone 12 flavor might come without a notch, as the Face ID components could be placed inside the top bezel.
