The screen offers a maximum brightness of 1200 nits, while the average brightness is 625 nits, and both numbers are excellent.
- The phone has a six-core Apple A14 Bionic processing chip.
- The processor was manufactured with a micro-accuracy that none of the competitors has yet reached, and it reaches 5 nanometers, which means that the phone will be highly energy-saving while ensuring that it does not overheat when used for hours. One billion transistors, or 40% more than last year’s A13 phone processor, with 80% better overall performance, and the company claims that the new processor offers 50% stronger performance than any other smartphone on the scene. It is worth noting that the main processor is supported by a video and graphics processor. Apple GPU quad core.
- The phone will work with the latest Apple operating system iOS 14 and is available in 64, 128 or 256 GB NVMe versions with 4 GB RAM, and as usual, the phone or any other phones will not support the installation of a MicroSD external storage card.

- The phone supports IP68 dust- and water-resistant to a depth of 6 meters and for 30 minutes, more than Samsung mobiles Which supports the same feature, but to a depth of one and a half meters only, as the Samsung Galaxy Note 20.

- The phone supports 5G networks at a super speed of 3.5 GB and up to 4 GB in ideal conditions.

Camera specifications and features
The phone packs a dual rear camera that is not fundamentally different from the previous year’s iPhone11 camera, and it comes with a wide first 12-Megapixel lens with a size of f/1.6 26 mm that supports dual pixel PDAF and OIS.
As for the second lens, it is also 12 Megapixels, but with an f/2.4 aperture, and is used for ultra-wide photography at an angle of up to 120 degrees.
The rear camera supports shooting videos up to 4K@24/30/60fps resolution, and it can shoot at lower resolutions up to 1080p@30/60, and it allows you to shoot 1080p slow motion with a frame rate of 120 or 240 per second, and the camera supports HDR photography and panorama mode. Equipped with a quad LED flash.
Although the camera has many features, we expect it to offer Huawei Its next phone (Huawei Mate 40) with more features.
The selfie camera (front) was identical in the four new announced phones, and it works with a 12-Megapixel resolution with an f/2.2 lens slot 23mm, and is equipped with a secondary camera of the type SL 3D to help in the work of isolation or portrait mode and supports shooting videos up to 4K@24/30/60fps resolution with EIS electronic stabilizer, and we did not see any update from Apple in the front camera from last year's phones.
Perhaps the only difference between the front camera of the new iPhone 12 family and the previous generation is its support for Night Mode or Night Mode.
The iPhone 12 mini can also record 4K video in Dolby Vision HDR at 30 frames per second, just like the regular iPhone 12, an exciting development in technology that will interest camera nerds and photography enthusiasts, but hardly means much to the average user.
Unlike HDR photos, HDR video basically deals with better highlights – bright areas in scenes get brighter, but interestingly the details are still crisp. For example, bright lights will have smaller halos and as we all know that direct camera light can damage the clarity of images, but now this has been improved and you will be able to see more details even while shooting with direct light on the camera.

- Excellent materials and manufacturing quality from Apple with a slim design that makes using the phone with one hand as easy as possible.
