The iPhone 12 line introduces support for personal hotspot over faster 5 GHz Wi-Fi, compared to the 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi of previous iPhones.
Apple’s iPhone 12 series features an upgraded hotspot mode that supports 5 GHz Wi-Fi connectivity, compared to the 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi found on previous iPhones.
Personal Hotspot on 5GHz Wi-Fi is enabled by default on all iPhone 12 models. In the Settings> Personal Hotspot menu of new devices, there is a new “Optimize Compatibility” switch that restores the personal hotspot to Wi 2.4GHz Fi when enabled, with Apple noting that this may reduce internet performance on devices connected to the hotspot.
The new mode featured on iPhone 12 models paves the way for a faster personal hotspot, but tests will need to be performed to confirm exact speed improvements.
