Apple’s next iPhone the iPhone 13 is here, but the iPhone 12 should not be overlooked. On Tuesday, September 14th, Apple is scheduled to unveil the iPhone 13. The phone could include new features, a revamped body, and improved cameras.
Depending on your budget, you might choose the iPhone 12, the iPhone 11, or the impending iPhone SE 3. However, if you’re eager to get your hands on Apple’s latest iPhone, the iPhone 13 may be the way to go.
Typically, Apple reveals the iPhone 13’s availability date a few weeks after the device’s presentation in September or October. To help you decide, we’ve assembled a list of all early speculations about the iPhone 13’s specifications, including price, cameras, display size and resolution, and the four likely options.
The most recent iPhone 13 speculations are shown here and how they compare to the iPhone 12. Apple has not confirmed any of these iPhone 13 characteristics. In addition, compare the iPhone 12 to the iPhone 11 and other iPhones scheduled to be available in 2021.
Four Models of the iPhone 13
According to analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, the iPhone 13 will be available in four sizes: 13, Mini, Pro, and Pro Max. Apple’s application to the Federal Communications Commission backs up this claim, revealing four “new phone” models compatible with a new MagSafe charger.
Sizes and Dimensions
According to a May MacRumors report, the iPhone 13 and 13 Pro may be thicker than the iPhone 12. The upcoming iPhone models will be only a millimetre thicker than the iPhone 12. However, this is a little change that can be overlooked.
Additionally, it has been reported that the iPhone 13’s camera bulge will be 2.51mm, while the 13 Pro’s will be 3.56mm. Because of the larger size, the lenses will be less visible than on previous phones.
Costs of an iPhone 13 vs iPhone 12
According to an August DigiTimes article, Apple is considering raising the price of its 2021 lineup to offset increased chip manufacturing expenditures from TSMC.
Apple’s supplier intends to charge up to 20% more for “advanced and mature process technology” by January 2022. The article makes no mention of how much the iPhone’s price may rise. Analysts predict that the iPhone 13 will be priced similarly to the iPhone 12, starting at $799.
Fast Reloading Time
The iPhone 12 has 120-frame-per-second refresh rates. The display on the iPhone 13 could have a refresh rate of 120Hz (and an always-on OLED display).
Because of the increased refresh rate, it looks to be faster and more fluid when switching between apps and web pages. While this was expected for the iPhone 12, it now appears to be more likely.
Upgraded Cameras
The iPhone 12 has a telephoto lens (on the Pro and Pro Max models) and a 2.5x zoom on the standard, ultrawide, and selfie cameras (on the Pro Max only). Meanwhile, the iPhone 13’s cameras are likely to be improved over the iPhone 12.
Rumours have it that a new periscope camera with enhanced magnification, an upgraded ultrawide-angle lens for night photography, and lidar technology will be available on all versions, not just the Pro and Pro Max.
Reinstated Touch ID
Touch ID may debut on the iPhone 13 for the first time since the iPhone 8. However, it may be embedded beneath the screen rather than as a separate button. This was predicted for the iPhone 12, although it could be postponed until the next iteration.
Regrettably, the iPhone 12 series lacks Touch ID. Notably, Apple’s 2020 iPad Air includes a Touch ID sensor on the side. Face ID does not work when a mask is used; therefore, this would be a great feature this year (unless you have an Apple Watch and iOS 14.5, that is).
Lightning Port
The iPhone 12 and all iPhone 13 models lack a headphone jack. This could change now that Apple has added MagSafe charging compatibility to the Lightning connector. The iPhone 13 models will maintain Lightning connectors, except for the iPhone 13 Pro Max, which Kuo thinks will be fully portless. However, all four iPhone 12 models contained a Lightning port.
Conclusion
So, there you have it! This list features a general overview of the features we must anticipate for the new iPhone 13. Although, we can only speculate until Apple formally unveils their much-awaited unit this fall. Until then, we can only sit back and wait.
