Apple will open all of its stores in Switzerland this week

More Apple Stores are reopening across the world.

What you need to know

  • Apple is reopening its retail locations in Switzerland.
  • All four Apple Stores will reopen on Tuesday, May 12th.
  • Stores will not have all services available upon their initial reopening.

It appears that more Apple Stores are set to reopen to customers this week. Reported by 9to5Mac, all four of Apple's retail locations in Switzerland will reopen on Tuesday, May 12th.

The stores will be following the same policies put in place at locations that have already opened in other parts of the world. Those policies have been put into place to encourage social distancing, online shopping, and keep both customers and employees safe. Those policies include:

  • Initial focus on service and support
  • Customers are encouraged to shop online
  • Walk-in customers may experience delays
  • Number of customers limited to maintain distancing
  • Reduced store operating hours
  • Masks must be worn inside
  • Contactless temperature checks required before entry
  • Display devices cleaned regularly
  • Today at Apple sessions paused

The stores reopening in Switzerland join a number of other locations that are getting ready to open with limited operations to customers. Last week, it was reported that Apple is planning on reopening some locations in the United States. According to that report, the first locations to reopen will be located in Idaho, South Carolina, Alabama, and Alaska.

The company is also reopening all of its retail locations in Germany tomorrow, May 11th.

Apple has already reopened stores in China, South Korea, Austria, and Australia. In an effort to encourage customers to shop online, the company has launched an online hub that brings the Apple Store experience to your computer.

The iPhone 12 will feature 120Hz Pro Motion display according to new rumor

The iPhone is finally getting a feature from the iPad Pro.

What you need to know

  • The iPhone 12 may get a 120Hz ProMotion display.
  • Max Weinbach and EverythingApplePro reported the new rumor.
  • It will be reserved for the iPhone 12 Pro models.

It looks like we may finally be getting a 120Hz ProMotion display on the iPhone. Reported from Max Weinbach and highlighted in EverythingApplePro's video, the iPhone 12 Pro models will be getting such a display.

The iPhone 11 and iPhone 11 Pro currently both sport a 60Hz Retina display, so this will effectively double the refresh rate of the display on the iPhone. The upgrade will make for much a smoother user experience when navigating the home screen, opening apps, and scrolling through apps.

According to Max Weinbach and EverythingApplePro, the 120Hz ProMotion display will be reserved for the iPhone 12 Pro models, whereas the regular iPhone 12 models will retain the 60Hz display. The iPhone 12 Pro will be able to switch between 120Hz and 60Hz, a feature that will help extend battery life performance as 120Hz is taxing on a smartphone battery, especially if it is running at that refresh rate all of the time.

The 120Hz ProMotion display was first introduced in the 2018 iPad Pro, so iPhone 12 Pro owners should expect a similarly smooth experience. The battery in the iPhone 12 Pro will reportedly also grow in size in order to support the higher refresh rate. According to the report, the battery in the rumored 6.7-inch iPhone 12 Pro will exceed 4400mAH.
