There was too much to process during Tuesday's "High Speed" Apple event. Here's everything you need to know in what premiered - and what we think were the very best and worst releases of your day.

On Tuesday, Apple held its gross annual iPhone release event- this time dubbed the "Hi, Speed," event. Not just one, but four iPhone 12 phones were announced, as well as a new HomePod mini, and the debut of Apple's new MagSafe type of accessories.

Apple made the iPhone 12 category of devices official after a year of rumors. Preorders for the model begin on October 16 and shipments will take place a week later on October 23.

While the iPhone 12 name is applied to this generation's smartphone lineup, in addition, it serves to name the basic iPhone 12 model.

The bottom iPhone 12 is Apple's "for everybody" phone- it combines the hottest features at a moderate price. It boasts a 6.1 OLED, 460ppi display with Apple's Super Retina XDR technology and is the first generation of iPhone to aid 5G networks.

All phones in the iPhone 12 lineup feature a 2 million-to-1 contrast ratio with better HDR and true blacks. Additionally, all phones also include Apple's new "Ceramic Shield" - an exceedingly tough display material that improves drop protection up to four times compared to previous models.

The cameras in the iPhone 12 include two 12-megapixel rear cameras - one wide and one ultra-wide. The iPhone 12 also features a larger sensor and wider aperture on both lenses over the prior generation. The wider aperture allows for 27% more light, providing top quality low-light photos and videos.

The iPhone 12 lineup also includes the custom Apple Silicon A14 Bionic processor, which has over 11.8 billion transistors. The Neural Engine includes a 16-core processor that's up to 80% faster compared to the A13 Bionic and may perform over 11 trillion businesses per second.

The iPhone 12 comes in five colors - white, black, blue, green, and (PRODUCT)RED. It might be configured with three different storage sizes - 64GB, 128GB, and 256GB, at $749, $799, and $899 respectively.

The iPhone 12 mini is, effectively, the same device as the bottom model iPhone 12, but packed into a smaller footprint.

The display measures 5.4-inches over the diagonal, giving it a more substantial screen than the current iPhone SE's 4.7-inch screen, but a smaller body overall.

Customers can order an iPhone 12 mini in blue, green, black, white, and (PRODUCT)RED. Storage sizes will be 64GB, 128GB, and 256GB, starting at $699, $749, or $849, respectively.

The iPhone 12 mini will be accessible to preorder on November 6 and is anticipated to start shipping on November 13.
