Apple has introduced its iPhone 12 smartphone range this week, offering 5G connectivity, IP68 protection, tougher 'Ceramic Shield' displays and the company's A14 Bionic processor on all the new devices.

There are four models available in a variety of colours: the iPhone 12, the iPhone 12 Mini, the iPhone 12 Pro and the iPhone 12 Pro Max. All will be supplied with a 'USB C to Lightning' cable and will support wireless charging but will not be supplied with a separate charger. The phones feature Apple's 'MagSafe' magnetic back, which is designed to provide optimum positioning for wireless charging and to hold other accessories in place.

The standard Apple iPhone 12 moves away from standard LED display technology with a 6.1-inch OLED screen encased in an aluminium body with glass back. It's equipped with a 12-megapixel dual camera and is expected to cost from £799 SIM-free in the UK for the 64GB model, going on sale on 23rd October. The iPhone 12 Mini has a similar camera but a 5.4-inch screen and a UK pricetag from £699 when it launches next month. The 'Pro' phones have a stainless steel body and a triple camera system, plus a LiDAR distance sensor; the Apple iPhone 12 Pro Max has a 6.7in OLED screen and the iPhone 12 Pro has a 6.1-inch screen. Pricing for the iPhone 12 Pro is from £999 for the 128GB phone, with the iPhone 12 Pro Max costing from £1,099 SIM-free when it hits the shops on 13th November.

ExclusivePredictions for 2016: Network Function Virtualisation, 4G throttling and video calling

Mark Windle, head of marketing at OpenCloud, predicts that this year’s reduction in the number of traditional telecoms operators in some countries will provide an opportunity for other operators to innovate and capture market share in 2016.

He says next year will be a year of rapid change for telecoms… whether it’s MVNO disruption, competitive tariff pricing or simply defence from the ‘dark art’ of hacking.

ExclusiveKapture review: the audio-recording wristband

Mark Bridge writes:

The most memorable moments in life often go unrecorded. You don't have your camera in your hands. Your finger is still hovering over the 'pause' button on your audio recorder. Or you were simply too busy experiencing whatever was happening. It's all about the one that got away.

That's where Kapture can help.

James Rosewell shows me a colourful roll of paper that's the width of an iPhone but well over three metres long. When I look closer, I can see it's a printed copy of the Wall Street Journal's mobile website. That's a lot of scrolling to do... and a pretty unfriendly user experience for anyone reading the news online. Why does it work so badly?
