10 things to know about the Apple iPhone 13, especially if you are already preparing money, compiled the edition "New time".

On September 14, Apple held its usual fall presentation of new iPhone models.

The new line is expected to be called the iPhone 13.

And once again it turned out that most of the information leaks and the rumors that have been circulating on the internet in recent weeks have been absolutely true.

There were no surprises during the presentation.

Apple iPhone 13 received an updated "tuft", which, however, seems to be somewhat outdated compared to the solutions that the main competitors have been using for several years (and quite archaic compared to the subscreen cameras in the new Samsung and Xiaomi).

The screens of the new iPhones now support a refresh rate of 120 Hz, which is also a rather belated step relative to competitors.

However, sarcasm is enough. Some truly original solutions Apple still has in store for its smartphones. So fans can't complain.

10 things to know about the Apple iPhone 13

1. Name

So, the new generation is called exactly as expected.

No original titles. Just an iPhone 13. Given how often in the US you can get in an elevator and not find a 13th floor button, this is a bold move.

2. The design remains the same

The new iPhone 13 doesn't offer anything special in terms of design. Even rumors about a radical reduction of the "crest" and placement of the front camera in the cutout were, to put it mildly, exaggerated.

For the 5th year in a row (since the 2017 iPhone X), Apple has retained the overall design of the iPhones. Last year's change in the configuration of the edges of the smartphone can hardly be called a radical design change.

3. New colors available

Apple iPhone 13 and iPhone 13 Mini are available in five colors. And the older versions - iPhone 13 Pro and iPhone 13 Pro Max - are available in four colors.

4. The cutout on the screen is 20% smaller

For the sake of preserving the advanced facial recognition system, Apple keeps the "tuft" at the top of the screen.

However, this time, for the first time in the past four years, the "crest" has decreased by 20%. It still looks archaic compared to the nifty little cutouts on the screen of modern "androids" or subscreen cameras in the latest models.

5. New processor

The A15 processor, created using the 5 nm process technology, contains 15 billion transistors. The graphics core has five times the performance.

6. Yes, yes, it's 120 HZ

Apple talked about a revolutionary innovation - a dynamic refresh rate of up to 120 Hz depending on the content.

This is not news to Android users, but perhaps Apple has improved the technology? Let's see.

The screen in the iPhone 13 Pro has a diagonal of 6,1 inches, in the iPhone 13 Pro Max - 6,7 inches.

Maximum brightness is 1000 nits.

7. Optical stabilization and something else

Yes, the same “trick” that many people used to buy the iPhone 12 Pro Max - optical stabilization is now available in the younger models - iPhone 13 and iPhone 13 Mini.

The iPhone 13 and 13 mini use a larger 12-megapixel sensor of the main wide-angle camera, pixel size 1,7 microns, aperture f / 1.6.

The ultra-wide-angle camera has the same resolution - 12 megapixels, viewing angle is 120 degrees, f / 2.4 aperture.

The iPhone 13 Pro and Pro Max still have a three-camera configuration.

There is a wide-angle with an aperture of f / 1.5, 1,9 μm, a telephoto with 3x zoom, an ultra-wide-angle with an aperture of f / 1.8 and autofocus.

It is important to note that all cameras have finally received support for night mode.

And now iPhones can shoot video with a change of focus, like in cool Hollywood films. We are waiting for a new hysteria on Instagram and Tiktok.

But in reality the function is good. The subject remains in focus even when the subject is moving. Parents of young children and owners of mobile animals will be delighted. Likewise, directors and operators of low-budget films and videos will also be delighted.

Thanks to the capabilities of the A15 processor, you can shoot video in Dolby Vision even on the iPhone 13 and iPhone 13 Mini. Including the front camera.

To demonstrate the video recording capabilities of the iPhone 13 Pro, Apple brought in some well-known filmmakers. For example, Catherine Bigelow (On the Crest of the Wave, K-19, The Lord of the Storm).

8. Prices

In the US, the iPhone 13 starts at $ 699.

The base models have 128 GB of storage. The 64GB option is gone. And thank God 🙂

Versions of 256 GB and 512 GB will be available. For iPhone 13 Pro, a 1TB option appears.

9. Autonomy

Apple is particularly proud of the improved battery life thanks to the bright screen and powerful processor.

For iPhone 13, the figure is 2 hours longer than for iPhone 12.
