As usual, each year, Apple announces introducing several new products, including the new generation of its iPhone smartphone series and its latest version of the iPhone 13.

In this article, we will learn about the specifications of new versions. The date of their descent into the market. And prices and differences from previous versions

The display works in the regular version of the iPhone 13. It is designed with flat edges, Ceramic Shield resistant glass like the previous generation, and water resistance – up to six meters deep for 30 minutes. And IP68 dust.

The iPhone 13 Regular Edition and13 Mini are available in five different colours: pink, plain blue, and the night sky. And starlight colour. And product red, as Apple called it.

The new design has not seen a significant change from the creation of the previous generation, except for the bump at the top of the display as Apple reduced its area by 20%. And the thickness of the new phones increased slightly to 7.65 millimetres thick from 7.4 millimetres in the previous generation version.

Returning to the display, Apple has equipped the regular version of the iPhone 13 with a 6.1-inch screen and the iPhone 13 mini version with a 5.4-inch screen. Both are equipped with Super Retina XDR display technology that uses Apple’s OLED technology. With a screen refresh rate of up to 60 Hz.

The iPhone 13 Pro and 13 Pro Max are available in four colours: gold, silver, dark grey and Sierra Blue. A new colour that Apple is launching for the first time.

The new design is similar to the previous iPhone 12 Pro version but has a durable stainless steel stripe around the edges. Both versions also provide a display using Super Retina XDR technology with brightness power of up to 1000 nits (an unofficial unit of measurement of brightness) outdoors and a screen refresh rate of up to 120Hz.

It is worth mentioning that Apple is using this screen refresh rate for the first time, which means smoother performance. In addition, apple is adapting the frame rate to suit usage. To keep performance and battery life soft together as in the iPad series.

Apple has equipped the iPhone 13 Pro with a 6.1-inch screen and the 13 Pro Max with a 6.7-inch screen. All iPhone 13 also support Apple’s MagSafe chargers and batteries, meaning you can use previous types without buying new chargers.

The cameras of the iPhone 13 standard version provided the rear with a new design, as they were arranged in a slanted shape instead of the horizontal arrangement used in previous versions and contained two cameras. The first 12 megapixels is the standard camera. The second is also 12 megapixels dedicated to shooting at a wide angle, with a set of new sensors.

Apple pointed out that the new cameras take better quality than those taken by the cameras of the previous iPhone 12. The primary camera in the regular version comes with an aperture of f/1.6. And the wide-motion camera is equipped with an aperture of f/2.4.
