Developer Giulio Zompetti, who often shows off prototype versions of Apple devices, today brought to your attention a prototype version of the iPhone 12 Pro.

The iPhone 12 Pro runs an operating system called SwitchBoard, which is a non-UI version of the iOS 14 update that Apple uses internally. We’ve seen SwitchBoard on prototype devices before, as Apple uses it to test new features.
Zompetti’s prototype iPhone is in Pacific Blue, one of the most popular iPhone 12 Pro colors. Given the lighting in the photo, the color looks very dark, but it is probably the same shade as the final version released.
The phone also doesn’t appear to have any visible carvings, which probably comes as no surprise as an earlier test version, but otherwise appears to be similar to the iPhone 12 Pro launched in October.
In the past, Zompetti has shared prototypes of the original Apple Watch and the third generation iPod touch.
