Apple has once again opted for a series of launches that we have been analyzing in detail here in Actualidad iPhoneand Apple WatchSeries 7, a new iPad range or even the iPhone 13 Pro, so now we have to talk about the most traditional and usual terminal of the firm.
The iPhone 13 and the iPhone 13 Mini have received an interesting renovation, although on the outside they do not seem to have changed much, it does hide some other novelty. Discover with us all the details of the iPhone 13 so that you know in depth the new range of products from the Cupertino company.
Notch reduction and screen maintenance
The new Apple device almost completely inherits the design of its brother the iPhone 12, therefore maintains its 6,1 inches. To do this, mount a panel on the front OLED Super Retina XDR with compatibility for Dolby Vision in a ratio of 19,5: 9, with all this we reached a resolution of 2532 x 1170 and therefore a density of 460 pixels per inch. Once again Apple bets on a 60 Hz refresh rate, and the thing is that a lot is said about the 120 Hz that the Apple panels will mount, but this is reserved for the "Pro" version of the iPhone. In the case of the iPhone 13 Mini we have a 5,4-inch panel, with a 2340 x 1080 resolution that offers 476 pixels per inch of density.
- IPhone 13 Dimensions: 146,7 x 71,5 x 7,6 millimeters
- IPhone 13 Weight: 173 grams
- IPhone 13 Mini dimensions: 131,5 x 64,2 x 7,6 millimeters
- IPhone 13 Mini Weight: 140 grams
Another detail of this front part is that the "notch", in addition to integrating the version 2.0 of Face ID, now has a width that has been reduced by 20%, however, it remains exactly the same length, so the usable screen area remains almost the same as in the previous edition of the iPhone. Definitely Apple has opted to reduce this nocht, which has moved the speaker to the uppermost area of the screen, something that other phone companies have been doing for some time, in the absence of knowing if the audio quality is maintained in this regard. .
On a technical level, Apple has not shared no information regarding RAM, as usual, so we will wait for the companions of iFixit carry out your first autopsies, although it is presumed that it will have 6 GB of RAM, exactly 2 GB less than the "Pro" version of the iPhone. In terms of processing, the A13 Bionic processor manufactured by TSMC comes out, which Apple has identified as the most powerful processor with integrated GPU for mobile phones on the market, a question that we are hardly going to be able to discuss.
More power and new storages
In this case, Apple has opted for NPU Neural Engine fourth generation that will help photographic processing and the performance of Augmented Reality and video games. Of course, one of the great surprises comes in storage, for this iPhone 13 range Apple has opted for starting from 128 GB, doubling the 64 GB offered in the iPhone 12 and giving two more options that go through the 256 GB and 512 GB, a novelty that iOS users are undoubtedly going to applaud.
In the technical section at the connectivity level, Apple has also wanted to stay up-to-date, for this it has used Wi-Fi 6E on this device, which now happens to have True wide-range 5G on all versions of the iPhone and what keeps the NFC. Of course, now we can have DualSIM via eSIM up to 5G on both virtual cards, which could be the first step towards a device without ports. Obviously the nanoSIM card slot remains, for those who do not have the possibility of having an eSIM from their telephone company.
The cameras are protagonists
At the camera level comes the other great renovation, the rear module now occupies much more space and has changed the arrangement of the sensors, which goes to a diagonal design, replacing the previous vertical one, and without integrating the LiDAR sensor that is reserved again for the «Pro» range. The main camera that is a Wide Angle has 12 MP with an aperture f / 1.6 and an advanced optical image stabilization system (OIS). The second sensor is a 12 MP Ultra Wide Angle that in this case is capable of capturing 20% more light than the previous version of the camera and that it has an aperture f / 2.4. All this will allow us to record in 4K Dolby Vision, in Full HD up to 240 FPS and even take advantage of the "cinematic" mode that adds a blur effect through software, but records only up to 30 FPS.
As for the front camera, Apple continues to take advantage of the True Depth system composed of the 12 MP wide-angle sensor, with f / 2.2 aperture, a 3D ToF sensor and the LiDAR, which allows recording in slow motion with ease.
The rest of the details practically remain
Talking about autonomy the new iPhone 13 has 20W fast charging and wireless through the 15W MagSafe. As for the resistance, they bet again on the standard IP68 and for the Ceramic Shield on the front glass, which promises to be the strongest on the market. As you well know, the iPhone can be reserved from Friday, September 17 and the first units will be delivered from September 24. You can buy it in the colors red, white, black, blue and pink, built in recycled aluminum for the chassis and glass for the rear in glossy format, reserving the matte for the "Pro" as it happens on other occasions.
