The new iPhone and iPad with 5G. Highlights from Apple's presentation
Apple Corporation held a presentation, which traditionally presented new products.
iPhone 13 and iPhone 13 mini.
iPhone 13 has an OLED display made by Apple, which is 20% brighter than the previous generation. Also the cutout on the top panel has been reduced by 20%. The models are generally similar to the previous generation devices, but are thicker and presented in new colors. They were equipped with an improved 12-megapixel camera with a larger sensor and optical stabilization at the sensor level. One of the main innovations of the camera is the “cinematic mode”. It allows you to shoot video with dynamic focus. The smartphones are powered by Apple’s 5nm A15 chip, which will improve smartphone performance and battery life. The charge will last 1.5 hours longer than on previous versions. The 5G module has been updated: it supports more frequencies in different countries and new standards (Sub-6GhZ and Microwave). Pricing in the U.S. for the iPhone 13 mini starts at $699, while the iPhone 13 starts at $799.
