<p>iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 mini in purple will be available for pre-order beginning Friday, 23 April 2021, with availability beginning Friday, 30 April 2021. Customers can also complement their iPhone with a new MagSafe Leather Case or Leather Sleeve in Deep Violet, a Silicone Case in Capri Blue, Pistachio, Cantaloupe, or Amethyst, or a Leather Wallet in Arizona, all available to order beginning today.</p>
<p>“The incredible iPhone 12 is the most popular smartphone in the world, and the iPhone 12 family has an over 99 per cent customer satisfaction rate. The new purple finish, just in time for autumn, adds another bright and fun option to the lineup, and we think customers are going to love it,” said Greg Joswiak, Apple’s senior vice president of Worldwide Marketing. “This gorgeous new colour joins the iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 mini family, which is available in five other stunning finishes, and features an advanced dual-camera system, Super Retina XDR display, improved durability, A14 Bionic, great battery life, and the best 5G experience on any smartphone.”</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"></p>
<p>The elevated design of the 6.1-inch iPhone 12 and 5.4-inch iPhone 12 mini are as beautiful as they are durable. And iPhone 12 mini is the smallest 5G smartphone in the world, packing all the technology of iPhone 12 into a delightfully compact size while still delivering an impressively large and immersive edge-to-edge display.</p>
<p>Both models feature a sleek flat-edge design with an aerospace-grade aluminium enclosure and combined with the Ceramic Shield front cover, which goes beyond glass by adding a new high-temperature crystallization step that grows nano-ceramic crystals within the glass matrix, increases drop performance by 4x.</p>
<p>iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 mini feature all-screen Super Retina XDR displays that stretch further to the edges, with systemwide colour management for industry-leading colour accuracy. This new OLED provides pixel precision brightness, 2 million-to-1 contrast ratio for true blacks, and an immersive HDR viewing experience for high-definition video, photos with more detail, and nearly twice the peak brightness of iPhone 11.</p>
<p>iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 mini have an industry-leading IP68 rating for water resistance up to 6 metres for up to 30 minutes, and are protected against everyday spills, including coffee and soda.</p>
<p><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-50605" src="https://www.shanethegamer.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/apple_iphone-12-spring21_hero_geo_04202021_big.jpg.large_.jpg?x67281" alt="Apple iPhone 12 Purple" width="980" height="915" srcset="https://www.shanethegamer.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/apple_iphone-12-spring21_hero_geo_04202021_big.jpg.large_.jpg 980w, https://www.shanethegamer.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/apple_iphone-12-spring21_hero_geo_04202021_big.jpg.large_-300x280.jpg 300w, https://www.shanethegamer.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/apple_iphone-12-spring21_hero_geo_04202021_big.jpg.large_-768x717.jpg 768w" sizes="(max-width: 980px) 100vw, 980px" /></p>
<p>iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 mini deliver powerful computational photography features enabled by A14 Bionic and a dual-camera system, bringing an unparalleled camera experience that makes it easier than ever to intuitively capture the perfect photograph or video.</p>
<p>This advanced camera system features the Ultra Wide camera and a new Wide camera with an ƒ/1.6 aperture, the fastest yet on iPhone, providing 27 per cent more light for even more amazing low-light photos and videos. Computational photography is taken to the next level on iPhone 12 models with Night mode and faster-performing Deep Fusion now on all cameras, TrueDepth, Wide, and Ultra Wide, for improved photos in any environment.</p>
<p>Customers will experience brighter pictures and better contrast for photos shot in low-light settings with Night mode, and more texture and less noise in Deep Fusion photos. Smart HDR 3 uses machine learning (ML) to intelligently adjust the white balance, contrast, texture, and saturation of a photo for remarkably natural-looking images.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"></p>
<p>iPhone 12 features the first camera to shoot HDR video with Dolby Vision and is the first and only device in the world to enable an end-to-end Dolby Vision experience,4 allowing customers to easily capture, edit, and share cinema-grade videos natively on iPhone.</p>
<p>Dolby Vision grading is processed live while recording, and sustained during editing, whether in the Photos app, iMovie, or Final Cut Pro. And playback on iPhone 12 is more realistic than ever on the industry-leading Super Retina XDR display. Both models also feature improved cinematic video stabilisation, even more true-to-life selfie videos with Dolby Vision, and Night mode Time-Lapse, offering longer exposure times for sharper videos, better light trails, and smoother exposure in low-light scenarios when used with a tripod.</p>
<p>A14 Bionic is the first chip in the smartphone industry built on 5-nanometer process.</p>
<p>Faster and more efficient than ever, A14 Bionic has the fastest CPU and GPU in a smartphone, enabling console-quality gaming experiences, powerful computational photography, and more, while delivering great battery life. Pushing the limits of ML, A14 Bionic features a 16-core Neural Engine, for an 80 per cent increase in performance, that is capable of completing 11 trillion operations per second, enabling improved performance on even the most intense ML models.</p>
<p><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-50606" src="https://www.shanethegamer.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/Apple-iPhone-12-Purple.jpg?x67281" alt="Apple iPhone 12 Purple" width="1312" height="738" srcset="https://www.shanethegamer.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/Apple-iPhone-12-Purple.jpg 1312w, https://www.shanethegamer.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/Apple-iPhone-12-Purple-300x169.jpg 300w, https://www.shanethegamer.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/Apple-iPhone-12-Purple-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https://www.shanethegamer.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/Apple-iPhone-12-Purple-768x432.jpg 768w" sizes="(max-width: 1312px) 100vw, 1312px" /></p>
<p>iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 mini deliver an advanced 5G experience on a global scale, engineered with a seamless integration of world-class hardware and world-class software.</p>
<p>5G on iPhone boasts improved speeds for faster downloads and uploads, higher-quality video streaming, more responsive gaming, real-time interactivity in apps, FaceTime in high definition, and more. Customers will also be able to enjoy a secure, fast connection, reducing the need to connect to public Wi-Fi hotspots.</p>
<p>Featuring the most 5G bands on any smartphone, iPhone 12 models offer the broadest 5G coverage worldwide. Models in the US support millimetre wave, the higher-frequency version of 5G, allowing iPhone 12 to reach speeds up to 4Gbps, even in densely populated areas. iPhone 12 models also feature Smart Data mode, which extends battery life by intelligently assessing 5G needs and balancing data usage, speed, and power in real time.</p>
<p>iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 mini in purple ship with iOS 14.5, which features the ability to unlock iPhone with Apple Watch while wearing a face mask, an enhanced Apple Podcasts app with redesigned show and episode pages, and a Search tab, as well as new emoji. In addition, Siri no longer has a default voice and will include more diverse voice options in English. This latest software update builds on the release of iOS 14, which delivered a major update to the Home Screen with beautifully redesigned widgets and the App Library, new ways to use apps with App Clips, and powerful updates to Messages.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"></p>
<p>MagSafe improves wireless charging for a better, more efficient experience, and introduces an ecosystem of easy-to-attach accessories that beautifully complement iPhone 12 models.8 MagSafe delivers a unique experience to iPhone, featuring an array of magnets around the wireless charging coil, optimised for alignment and efficiency, that perfectly connects to iPhone every time. MagSafe chargers efficiently provide up to 15W of power, while still accommodating existing Qi-enabled devices.</p>
<p>Charging solutions include the MagSafe Charger and MagSafe Duo Charger for use with iPhone and Apple Watch, as well as silicone, leather, and clear cases that easily snap onto the back of iPhone, the Leather Sleeve, and the Leather Wallet. Customers can also expect innovative MagSafe accessories from third-party manufacturers.</p>
<p>Today, Apple is carbon neutral for global corporate operations, and by 2030, plans to have net zero climate impact across the entire business, which includes manufacturing supply chains and all product life cycles. This means that every Apple device sold, from material collection, component manufacturing, assembly, transport, customer use, charging, all the way through recycling and material recovery, will be 100 per cent carbon neutral.</p>
<p>iPhone 12 models utilise 100 per cent recycled rare earth elements in all magnets, including the camera, Taptic Engine, and MagSafe, as well as Apple’s MagSafe accessories.</p>
<p>Apple also removed the power adapter and EarPods from iPhone packaging, further reducing carbon emissions and avoiding the mining and use of precious materials, which enables smaller and lighter packaging, and allows for 70 per cent more boxes to be shipped on a pallet. Taken altogether, these changes will cut over 2 million metric tons of carbon emissions annually, equivalent to removing nearly 450,000 cars from the road per year.</p>

<p>Apple today announced iPhone 12 Pro and iPhone 12 Pro Max, introducing a powerful 5G experience and advanced technologies that push the boundaries of innovation for users who want the most out of iPhone. iPhone 12 Pro models feature a new design and edge-to-edge Super Retina XDR displays, the largest ever on iPhone, protected by the all-new Ceramic Shield front cover, which provides the biggest jump in durability ever on iPhone.</p>

These experiences and so much more make this the best iPhone lineup ever.”</p>
<p><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-47933" src="https://www.shanethegamer.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/iPhone-12-Magsafe-Wallet-Cover.jpg?x67281" alt="iPhone 12 Magsafe Wallet Cover" width="1280" height="1188" srcset="https://www.shanethegamer.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/iPhone-12-Magsafe-Wallet-Cover.jpg 1280w, https://www.shanethegamer.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/iPhone-12-Magsafe-Wallet-Cover-300x278.jpg 300w, https://www.shanethegamer.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/iPhone-12-Magsafe-Wallet-Cover-1024x950.jpg 1024w, https://www.shanethegamer.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/iPhone-12-Magsafe-Wallet-Cover-768x713.jpg 768w" sizes="(max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px" /></p>
<p>iPhone 12 Pro and iPhone 12 Pro Max deliver an advanced 5G experience on a global scale, engineered with a seamless integration of world-class hardware and world-class software. 5G on iPhone boasts improved speeds for faster downloads and uploads, higher quality video streaming, more responsive gaming, real-time interactivity in apps, FaceTime in high definition, and much more.

<p><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-47934" src="https://www.shanethegamer.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/iPhone-12-group.jpg?x67281" alt="iPhone 12" width="1169" height="825" srcset="https://www.shanethegamer.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/iPhone-12-group.jpg 1169w, https://www.shanethegamer.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/iPhone-12-group-300x212.jpg 300w, https://www.shanethegamer.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/iPhone-12-group-1024x723.jpg 1024w, https://www.shanethegamer.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/iPhone-12-group-768x542.jpg 768w" sizes="(max-width: 1169px) 100vw, 1169px" /></p>
<p>The world’s best pro camera is an even more versatile tool for all levels of photo and video enthusiasts with state-of-the-art camera hardware powered by A14 Bionic. Together with the new image signal processor (ISP), A14 Bionic drives increased image quality and enables powerful computational photography capabilities not possible with traditional cameras. iPhone 12 Pro models also feature the new Apple ProRAW, coming later this year, which combines Apple’s multi-frame image processing and computational photography with the versatility of a RAW format. Users can experience full creative control over colour, detail, and dynamic range natively on iPhone or with other professional photo editing apps.</p>
<p>iPhone 12 Pro features the new seven-element lens Wide camera with an ƒ/1.6 aperture, the fastest ever on an iPhone, for 27 per cent improved low-light performance in photo and video; the Ultra Wide camera with a 120-degree field of view, perfect for capturing more scene in tight spots or epic landscapes; and a 52 mm focal length Telephoto camera, great for framing portraits, bringing the optical zoom range to 4x.</p>
<p>iPhone 12 Pro Max takes the pro camera experience even further. The new ƒ/1.6 aperture Wide camera boasts a 47 per cent larger sensor with 1.7μm pixels for a massive 87 per cent improvement in low-light conditions. It also includes the expansive Ultra Wide camera and a 65 mm focal length Telephoto camera for increased flexibility with closer shots and tighter crops. Combined, this system offers 5x optical zoom range.</p>
<p>Improvements to Night mode, now expanded to the TrueDepth and Ultra Wide cameras, allow for an even brighter picture. And Night mode Time-Lapse delivers longer exposure times for sharper videos, better light trails, and smoother exposure in low-light scenarios when used with a tripod. Deep Fusion, now better and faster, comes to all cameras, and with the new Smart HDR 3, users can expect more true-to-life images, even in complex scenes.</p>

<p>iPhone 12 Pro models offer the highest quality video in a smartphone, and are the first cameras and only devices in the world to enable an end-to-end experience for HDR video with Dolby Vision up to 60 fps, and even better video stabilization for cinema-grade productions. Dolby Vision grading is processed live and sustained during editing, whether in the Photos app or iMovie, and coming to Final Cut Pro X later this year. Dolby Vision takes advantage of the Super Retina XDR display for amazing contrast during capture and video playback, and users can share their videos with support for AirPlay up to 4K Dolby Vision to external devices.</p>
<p>An all-new LiDAR Scanner comes to the Pro line, offering the ability to measure light distance and use pixel depth information of a scene. This technology delivers faster, more realistic AR experiences and improves autofocus by 6x in low-light scenes for more accuracy and reduced capture time in photos and videos. This advanced hardware, combined with the power of the Neural Engine of A14 Bionic, also unlocks Night mode portraits, rendering a beautiful low-light bokeh effect.</p>
<p>MagSafe improves wireless charging for a better, more efficient experience and introduces an ecosystem of easy-to-attach accessories that beautifully complement iPhone 12 Pro models. MagSafe delivers a unique experience to iPhone, featuring an array of magnets around the wireless charging coil, optimized for alignment and efficiency, that perfectly connects to iPhone every time. MagSafe chargers efficiently provide up to 15W of power while still accommodating existing Qi-enabled devices. Charging solutions include the MagSafe Charger and MagSafe Duo Charger for use with iPhone and Apple Watch, as well as new silicone, leather, and clear cases that easily snap onto the back of iPhone, and a leather wallet. Customers can also expect innovative MagSafe accessories from third-party manufacturers.</p>

<p>iOS 14 delivers a reimagined iPhone experience with new ways to customize the Home Screen. Beautifully redesigned widgets present timely information at a glance and can be pinned in different sizes on any Home Screen page. The App Library is a new space that automatically organizes all of a user’s apps into one simple, easy-to-navigate view. iOS 14 also brings new ways to discover and use apps with App Clips, powerful updates for staying connected in Messages, greener ways to explore cities with Maps, and enhanced privacy features for even more transparency and control.</p>
<p>Today, Apple is carbon neutral for global corporate operations, and by 2030, plans to have net zero climate impact across the entire business, which includes manufacturing supply chains and all product life cycles. This means that every Apple device sold, from material collection, component manufacturing, assembly, transport, customer use, charging, all the way through recycling and material recovery, will be 100 per cent carbon neutral. iPhone 12 Pro models were designed with the environment in mind. For the first time, iPhone 12 Pro models will utilize 100 per cent recycled rare earth elements in all magnets, including the new camera, Taptic Engine, and MagSafe, as well as Apple’s MagSafe accessories. Apple is also removing the power adapter and EarPods from iPhone packaging, further reducing carbon emissions and avoiding the mining and use of precious materials, which enables smaller and lighter packaging, and allows for 70 per cent more boxes to be shipped on a pallet. Taken altogether, these changes will cut over 2 million metric tonnes of carbon emissions annually, equivalent to removing nearly 450,000 cars from the road per year.</p>
<p>iPhone 12 Pro and iPhone 12 Pro Max will be available in four stainless steel finishes, including graphite, silver, gold, and pacific blue. Pre-orders for iPhone 12 Pro begin Saturday, 17th October 2020, with availability beginning Friday, 23rd October 2020. iPhone 12 Pro Max will be available for pre-order Saturday, 7th November 2020, and in stores beginning Friday, 13th November 2020.</p>

<p>Apple today unveiled iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 mini with 5G technology, ushering in a new era for the world’s best smartphone.</p>
<p>The newly designed iPhone 12 models feature expansive edge-to-edge Super Retina XDR displays for a brighter, more immersive viewing experience, and a new Ceramic Shield front cover, providing the biggest jump in durability ever on iPhone.</p>
<p>The Apple-designed A14 Bionic, the fastest chip in a smartphone, powers every experience on iPhone 12, and coupled with an advanced dual-camera system, delivers meaningful new computational photography features and the highest quality video in a smartphone. iPhone 12 models also introduce MagSafe, offering high-powered wireless charging and an all-new ecosystem of accessories that easily attach to iPhone.</p>
<p>“The arrival of 5G marks the beginning of a new era for iPhone and we’re thrilled to bring these impressive new capabilities to our customers with iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 mini,” said Greg Joswiak, Apple’s senior vice president of Worldwide Marketing. “We’re once again pushing the boundaries to deliver incredible computational photography advancements, Super Retina XDR displays, and the biggest leap in durability in iPhone history with the new Ceramic Shield front cover. Available in two great sizes, iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 mini take design to a new level in a new form factor that’s as beautiful as it is durable, and makes it easier than ever for customers to find the perfect iPhone to fit their lifestyle.”</p>
<p>iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 mini deliver an advanced 5G experience on a global scale, engineered with a seamless integration of world-class hardware and world-class software. 5G on iPhone boasts improved speeds for faster downloads and uploads, higher quality video streaming, more responsive gaming, real-time interactivity in apps, FaceTime in high definition, and more. Customers will also be able to enjoy a secure, fast connection, reducing the need to connect to public Wi-Fi hotspots.</p>
<p>Featuring the most 5G bands on any smartphone, iPhone 12 models offer the broadest 5G coverage worldwide. Models in the US support millimeter wave, the higher-frequency version of 5G, allowing iPhone 12 to reach speeds up to 4Gbps, even in densely populated areas. iPhone 12 models also feature Smart Data mode, which extends battery life by intelligently assessing 5G needs and balancing data usage, speed, and power in real time.</p>
<p><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-47930" src="https://www.shanethegamer.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/iphone-12-family-select-2020.jpg?x67281" alt="iPhone 12" width="882" height="878" srcset="https://www.shanethegamer.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/iphone-12-family-select-2020.jpg 882w, https://www.shanethegamer.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/iphone-12-family-select-2020-300x300.jpg 300w, https://www.shanethegamer.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/iphone-12-family-select-2020-150x150.jpg 150w, https://www.shanethegamer.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/iphone-12-family-select-2020-768x765.jpg 768w, https://www.shanethegamer.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/iphone-12-family-select-2020-125x125.jpg 125w" sizes="(max-width: 882px) 100vw, 882px" /></p>
<p>Generations ahead of the competition, A14 Bionic is the first chip in the smartphone industry built on 5-nanometer process. Faster and more efficient than ever, A14 Bionic has the fastest CPU and GPU by up to 50 per cent compared to the fastest competing smartphone chips, enabling console-quality gaming experiences, powerful computational photography, and more, while delivering great battery life. Pushing the limits of machine learning (ML), A14 Bionic features a 16-core Neural Engine — for an 80 per cent increase in performance — that is capable of completing 11 trillion operations per second, enabling improved performance on even the most intense ML models.</p>
<p>The elevated new design of the 6.1-inch iPhone 12 and 5.4-inch iPhone 12 mini are as beautiful as they are durable. And iPhone 12 mini is the smallest, thinnest, and lightest 5G smartphone in the world, re-architected to pack all the technology of iPhone 12 into a delightfully compact size, while still delivering an impressively large and immersive edge-to-edge display. Both models feature a sleek new flat-edge design with an aerospace-grade aluminum enclosure and combined with the Ceramic Shield front cover, which goes beyond glass by adding a new high temperature crystallization step that grows nano-ceramic crystals within the glass matrix, increases drop performance by 4x.4.</p>
<p>iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 mini feature all-screen Super Retina XDR displays that stretch further to the edges, with systemwide colour management for industry-leading colour accuracy. Both models deliver a 2 million-to-1 contrast ratio for true blacks, and an immersive HDR viewing experience for high-definition video, photos with more detail, and nearly twice the peak brightness of iPhone 11.</p>
<p><img decoding="async" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-47934" src="https://www.shanethegamer.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/iPhone-12-group.jpg?x67281" alt="iPhone 12" width="1169" height="825" srcset="https://www.shanethegamer.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/iPhone-12-group.jpg 1169w, https://www.shanethegamer.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/iPhone-12-group-300x212.jpg 300w, https://www.shanethegamer.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/iPhone-12-group-1024x723.jpg 1024w, https://www.shanethegamer.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/iPhone-12-group-768x542.jpg 768w" sizes="(max-width: 1169px) 100vw, 1169px" /></p>
<p>iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 mini have an industry-leading IP68 rating for water resistance up to 6 meters for up to 30 minutes, and are protected against everyday spills, including coffee and soft drink.</p>
<p>iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 mini deliver powerful computational photography features enabled by A14 Bionic and a new dual-camera system, bringing an unparalleled camera experience that makes it easier than ever to intuitively capture the perfect photograph or video. This advanced camera system features the Ultra Wide camera and a new Wide camera with an ƒ/1.6 aperture, the fastest yet on iPhone, providing 27 per cent more light for even more amazing low-light photos and videos. Computational photography is taken to the next level on iPhone 12 models with Night mode and faster-performing Deep Fusion now on all cameras — TrueDepth, Wide, and Ultra Wide — for improved photos in any environment. Customers will experience brighter pictures and better contrast for photos shot in low-light settings with Night mode, and more texture and less noise in Deep Fusion photos. Smart HDR 3 uses ML to intelligently adjust the white balance, contrast, texture, and saturation of a photo for remarkably natural-looking images.</p>
<p>iPhone 12 features the first camera to shoot HDR video with Dolby Vision and is the first and only device in the world to enable an end-to-end Dolby Vision experience, allowing customers to easily capture, edit, and share cinema-grade videos natively on iPhone. Dolby Vision grading is processed live while recording, and sustained during editing, whether in the Photos app or iMovie. And playback on iPhone 12 is more realistic than ever on the industry-leading Super Retina XDR display. Both models also now feature improved cinematic video stabilisation, even more true-to-life selfie videos with Dolby Vision, and Night mode Time-Lapse, offering longer exposure times for sharper videos, better light trails, and smoother exposure in low-light scenarios when used with a tripod.</p>

This means that every Apple device sold, from material collection, component manufacturing, assembly, transport, customer use, charging, all the way through recycling and material recovery, will be 100 per cent carbon neutral. iPhone 12 models were designed with the environment in mind. For the first time, iPhone 12 models will utilise 100 per cent recycled rare earth elements in all magnets, including the new camera, Taptic Engine, and MagSafe, as well as Apple’s MagSafe accessories. Apple is also removing the power adapter and EarPods from iPhone packaging, further reducing carbon emissions and avoiding the mining and use of precious materials, which enables smaller and lighter packaging, and allows for 70 per cent more boxes to be shipped on a pallet. Taken altogether, these changes will cut over 2 million metric tons of carbon emissions annually, equivalent to removing nearly 450,000 cars from the road per year.</p>
<p>iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 mini will be available in five beautiful aluminum finishes, including blue, green, black, white, and (PRODUCT)RED.</p>
<p>Pre-orders for iPhone 12 begin Friday, 16th October 2020, with availability beginning Friday, 23rd October 2020. iPhone 12 mini will be available for pre-order beginning Saturday, 7th November 2020, and in stores beginning Friday, 13th November 2020.</p>
