The higher-end iPhone 12 Pro and iPhone 12 Pro Max come in four stainless steel finishes, including graphite, silver, gold, and pacific blue. 

The “pro” model phones also introduce for the first time ever Dolby Vision video capability, providing the ability for users to create videos on a cinematic level.

As expected, Apple's new iPhone lineup will be missing EarPods and a power adaptor. Apple said their new products would ship lighter for environmental reasons.
