The iPhone 13 could scare away sales thanks to its name

Even though nothing is confirmed in this regard yet, analysts are rushing to take for granted that the new iPhone will remain as "IPhone 13" following the natural order of the numbers, something that does not have to be true, and that is that we have not had iPhone 9 for example.

However, it is not a trivial subject, It turns out that the number 13 in many cultures is considered the unlucky number, and this can be a real problem for many users. Therefore, the first analyzes point to the detail that the name can mean a significant drop in sales.

In fact, the irrational fear of the number 13 is listed as triskaidekaphobia, so it goes far beyond a simple hobby. Many buildings do not have a 13th floor, as well as some airlines also skip the happy number in the seats. This is something that will not happen to Real Madrid fans, who will be very happy to have no less than 13 Champions League. Meanwhile, the guys at SellCell have analyzed the actual result of launching a device called iPhone 13 in terms of sales, and surprisingly, about two out of ten users say they will not buy it just for that reason.

Not only that, but 74% of those surveyed believe that Apple should look for an alternative instead of naming iPhone 13 to the next version of the company's most successful device. For its part, the Cupertino signature is common in this type of superstition, so it would seem really strange to me that they end up opting for the number thirteen. Nevertheless, we must not forget that iOS 13 existed for a whole year, with its consequences, and it did not seem to have mattered too much to the users of the terminal, What do you think about it?
