Apple's iPhone 12, 12 Pro, and new iPad Air are now available in stores

The first two of Apple's four new 2020 flagship smartphones are here.

The 6.1-inch iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 Pro became available for purchase on Apple's online store and at retail locations on Friday.

We've covered these smartphones at length; read our review here, and our roundup of other reviews here. Both smartphones have the same-sized, 6.1-inch OLED display, Apple's new A14 Bionic chip, 5G support, fast MagSafe wireless charging, and a new, flatter design.

The biggest advantages of the Pro are the extra telephoto camera and the LIDAR scanner (the regular iPhone 12 only has the main and the ultra-wide camera on the back), slightly more premium materials, and bigger starting memory capacity (128GB vs. 64GB). And there's the price: the iPhone 12 starts at $829 (without a contract), while the iPhone 12 Pro starts at $999.
