The iPhone 12 Pro and iPhone 12 Pro Max were announced on October 13, 2020 with the iPhone 12 Pro being released on October 23, 2020 and the iPhone 12 Pro Max on November 13, 2020. The devices were unveiled alongside the iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 mini at an Apple Special Event at Apple Park in Cupertino, California on October 13, 2020. Major upgrades over the iPhone 11 Pro and iPhone 11 Pro Max include the addition of 5G, the introduction of the MagSafe wireless charging and accessory system, the Apple A14 Bionic system on a chip (SoC), larger 6.1-inch and 6.7-inch displays on the iPhone 12 Pro and iPhone 12 Pro Max respectively, and the move to a base capacity of 128 GB from the prior base capacity of 64 GB, while retaining the other storage capacities of 256 GB and 512 GB. The phones also introduce a new glass covering, named 'Ceramic Shield', which was co-developed with Corning Inc. Apple claims the Ceramic Shield has "4 times better drop performance" and that it is "tougher than any smartphone glass". The iPhone 12 Pro and iPhone 12 Pro Max, like the iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 mini, are the first iPhone models from Apple to no longer include a power adapter or EarPods headphones found in prior iPhone models; however a USB-C to Lightning cable is still included.
