New colors, 120 hertz screen, satellite communications, reduced bangs, larger battery. What else to expect from the new iPhone.
One of the most important events in the world of technology – the presentation of Apple – this year should happen on time. The presentation of the new smartphone, according to the latest data, is expected on September 14. The new lineup will have four models: iPhone 13 Mini, iPhone 13, iPhone 13 Pro, iPhone 13 Pro Max.
The pandemic confused the plans of the American company last year, but did not stop the expansion of the iPhone 12 in the market. And in the fall of 2021, analysts and users expect the success to continue and the long-awaited next-generation display will arrive. Correspondent.net tells the details.
How Apple Made the iPhone 13
The iPhone 13 is rumored to come in two new colors. It will be matte black, which will replace the graphite hue, and bronze, which will most likely replace the gold version. Color information was published by developer Max Weinbach, who correctly predicted the appearance of a dark blue case in the iPhone 12 Pro and 12 Pro Max.
According to previous news, the iPhone 13 will also be available in Sunset Gold and Rose Gold colors, which have already been shown in the renders.
Designer Technizo Concept used long-standing blueprints for new smartphones on the Web, as well as exclusive information that they will be available in the new Sunset Gold and Rose Gold colors.
The largest update of the new series is called advanced screens. Apple smartphones are expected to switch to displays with an increased refresh rate of up to 120 hertz this year. Upgrade means smoother picture display.

In this regard, iPhones lag behind Android flagships – even relatively budget models look preferable due to a more advanced front panel. The lack of a high frequency mode in current devices can be attributed to a high load on the battery, which is solved by increasing the battery capacity or by optimizing the system.
Most likely, the new function will work by analogy with 5G, that is, it will be activated only when it is needed. In current iPhones, the fifth generation connection is also turned on only when necessary – downloading heavy content and streaming.
The dimensions of the screens will not change, as the current line seems to be the most balanced in many years. There is the most popular format (6.1 “), there is a top-end flagship with a huge screen (6.5”) and a compact 5.4 “version for lovers of small devices.
All iPhone smartphones will receive a reduced cutout for the front camera, as well as a slightly modified main camera unit. Apple plans to provide iPhone 13 with a Starry Sky Mode. It will be built on the basis of software algorithms, but will be exclusive to only the newest smartphones of the company.
iPhone 13 will be released on the basis of the Apple A15 Bionic single-chip system, which is manufactured using a 5-nanometer technological process. They will support the mmWave 5G band outside of the US.
Sources confirm that the iPhone 13 Pro and iPhone 13 Pro Max will not be available with 256GB of non-volatile storage. Buyers will be available in versions with 128 and 512 GB, as well as 1 TB of flash memory.
It is also reported that thanks to the new layout and the use of smaller components, it was possible to use larger batteries. The new iPhone 13 will support 25W fast charging technology.
Sources are awaiting the emergence of a reverse charging feature that will allow the iPhone to be used as a power bank. Of course, with great restrictions and only for recharging compatible accessories like AirPods. Although this option was added to smartphones not very long ago, it only works with a compatible external battery from Apple.
In addition, all iPhone 13 models will be equipped with a laser rangefinder.

Apple plans to add satellite connectivity to the new iPhones. True, it can only be used in emergency situations. According to Bloomberg, the smartphone will be able to send messages to emergency services, even if the cellular connection is not working.
Another function is the notification of major emergencies, such as a plane crash. iPhone 13 via satellite will be able to send the owner’s location and medical data, including the user’s favorite contacts.
At the same time, according to Bloomberg, the connection to the satellite can take up to a minute. Whether the feature will work in all countries is unknown.

Apple Watch Series 7 Limited Edition
Bloomberg analyst Mark Gurman is confident that along with the iPhone 13 at the September presentation, a new Apple Watch model will also be presented, but due to production problems, their number will be limited.
Gourmet previously admitted a scenario in which the announcement of a smartwatch would be postponed indefinitely, but now claims that Apple Watch Series 7 will still be shown on September 14, sending only a limited batch to stores.
The Apple Watch Series 7 is expected to have a “flat” design inspired by the latest iPhone models and will be available in 41mm and 45mm sizes. The size of the case will change slightly, but thanks to the flat edges and reduced bezels, it will be possible to install a larger display. This will update the branded watch faces of the Infograph.
Most likely, the changes will affect only the appearance of the device, and not its functions.

The cost of iPhones and Apple’s financial success
On August 24, 2011, Steve Jobs stepped down as CEO of Apple. Tim Cook took his place. Many experts then expressed doubts about the future of the corporation without its charismatic founder.
Since then, however, Apple has become the most valuable company in the world – its market capitalization has grown by 600 percent, approaching $ 2.5 trillion.
Apple gadgets are used by more than a billion people, and the company itself regularly continues to update financial reporting records. Revenue for the third quarter of this year was $ 81.4 billion – almost three times more than the company earned in the same quarter of 2011.
These indicators were largely achieved thanks to successful sales. iPhone 12 that was presented last October, and an absolute record for revenue from services.
In anticipation of the presentation of the new iPhone, the iPhone 12 began to decline significantly in price, including in Ukrainian stores. Many marketplaces are selling off their inventory to make room for the iPhone 13.
Also, the price of last year’s smartphones in the secondary market will decrease. Decluttr predicts that a month after the iPhone 13 is released, the residual value of used iPhone 12s will drop 12 percent, and in three months, it will drop 20 percent.
Despite the fact that the iPhone 13 will have some interesting improvements, its starting price is not rumored to rise. However, due to the arrival of the version with 1 TB of flash memory, some smartphones will cost more than two thousand dollars.
In August, experts warned that Apple technology could rise in price due to rising chip prices. The cost of components is increased by the Taiwanese company TSMC – the world’s largest chip manufacturer, one of whose most famous customers is Apple.
The chips used in the iPhone and iPad will become 10-20 percent more expensive, writes Fox Business. It is noted that TSMC is raising prices to cope with the semiconductor shortage due to the coronavirus pandemic.
Whether the iPhone 13 is expected to be as successful as its predecessor is hard to predict. However, ahead of the presentation, Apple shares are breaking records. AAPL is priced at $ 154.3 on September 6. Market capitalization reached 2.55 trillion.
Apple is expected to be the first company to achieve a $ 3 trillion market cap soon. Apple first reached a $ 1 trillion market cap in August 2018. Two years later, Apple’s valuation reached $ 2 trillion.
