IPHONE 13. The days go by and so are the promotions on the iPhone 13. The latter is currently available for almost 140 euros less at Rakuten.
If you are looking for a new phone, why not crack on the iPhone 13? The latter still represents all of Apple’s smartphone know-how with its powerful A15 Bionic chip which still crushes the competition on many points. The autonomy of the iPhone 13 has also been revised upwards compared to previous models, making it one of the most enduring iPhones on the market!
Still available in several versions, the iPhone 13 in its classic model is regularly promoted on many specialized websites. It is currently possible to take advantage of a canon price at several brands, but especially at Rakuten via a specialized seller who offers a 15% reduction on the iPhone 13.
It is quite rare for a recent product to quickly have promotional offers, and especially when it comes to Apple’s iPhone. But some merchants can take advantage of such a launch to stand out by offering some exclusive price reductions! This is particularly the case for the iPhone 13 which has in particular small welcome reductions, especially at SFR since its launch at the end of the year:
Please also note that unless there are promotional codes, it would seem quite surprising that new promotions will appear soon. Instead, Apple’s strategy is to sell off the stocks of the previous generation of iPhone before offering very attractive price reductions on the most recent.
As was the case in previous years, Apple wasted no time in launching its new flagship. The new iPhone 13 and its various versions were available for pre-order for a few days after their reveal. Several brands now offer the new Apple smartphone, but all are displayed at the recommended retail price. Do not hesitate to browse the various sites to consult the colors and storage spaces available. Note that the shortage of computer chips can lead to extended delivery times at certain sites.
We offer some major versions of the iPhone 13 below, but from the 128GB version to the 1TB version, there are many variations in the four new models. Do not hesitate to browse the different sites to consult the different colors and versions available according to your desires and needs:
The four new iPhones – iPhone 13, iPhone 13 mini, iPhone 13 Pro and iPhone 13 Pro Max – are equipped with a new processor: the A15 Bionic chip, which will offer significantly more power to the new phone, with better management of the battery in particular.
The iPhone 13 also comes with larger batteries that Apple says will deliver between 1.5 and 2.5 hours of extra use per day. This novelty is partly linked to the installation of the A15 chip. “iPhone 13 has a faster chip, faster 5G, a brighter OLED display, and the most advanced dual camera system ever in an iPhone, and with all those upgrades , the iPhone 13 has a better autonomy”, summarized the vice-president of Apple, Kiann Drance during the Keynote.
The iPhone 13 cameras have also been improved. Besides reducing the notch on the front of the smartphone, a new feature, Cinema mode, will allow video to be shot using the rear cameras and users to change the focus, with a new aperture f/ 1.6, 7-element lens, 26mm focal length. The iPhone 13 Pro and 13 Pro Max also feature a new 3x telephoto lens and an ultra-wide camera that enables macro photography for the first time, for photographing small objects.
On the design side, Apple wanted to bet on an elegant aesthetic, with a thinner notch. Of course, the iPhone 13 has the IP68 splash-proof system. But it is especially on the back of the device that its appearance changes the most. Indeed, the cameras are now in duo, placed diagonally.
Color level, the iPhone 13 reserves new options, such as the creation of the pink iPhone. You can still find the usual colors which are red, midnight black, starlight white and blue. As for the iPhone 13 Pro and 13 Pro Max, the latter are available in alpine blue, graphite, gold and silver.
Despite very disappointing sales for the iPhone 12 mini, Apple has decided to try the experience again by announcing an iPhone 13 mini. The latter has the same characteristics as its classic version, but in a smaller format, in order to be easy to store and use. It is also available in several colors, as is the case for the classic version namely pink, blue, midnight, starlight and red. The iPhone 13 mini is fully compatible with 5G communication networks, and benefits from iOS 15.
This is one of the many questions Apple answered during its iPhone 13 presentation evening: there is indeed an iPhone 13 Pro and an iPhone 13 Pro Max. As with the Pro version of the 12, the iPhone 13 Pro is again aimed at budding photographers. Better, a filter called “Cinematic Video” transposes the portrait mode, hitherto reserved for photos, to video capture. The 3x mode also offers a wider angle, macro photography style. As for its screen, it measures between 6.1 and 6.7 inches (it all depends on whether you choose the Max option as well).
As a reminder, the iPhone 12 Pro was already an improved version, which notably had an additional photo sensor dedicated to the telephoto lens, as well as a video quality of up to 60 frames per second (compared to 30 on the iPhone). iPhone 12 classic and mini). The other characteristics remained broadly the same as on the other versions.
Like its iPhone 12 released last year, Apple is again offering a Pro model for the iPhone 13. Compared to the classic iPhone 13, it has a smaller notch, but a larger camera module than the original format. Great novelty in its aesthetics, the blue color “Alpin” is entering the small family of iPhone Pro. Compared to the iPhone 12 Pro, there are novelties in terms of its performance, thanks to the use of an A15 Bionic chip, which notably allows greater battery life. New technology still used, ProMotion is entering the iPhone 13 Pro. This, used by the iPad, calls for greater screen brightness.
Regarding size, the iPhone 13 Pro has a 6.1-inch screen, compared to 6.7 inches for the iPhone 13 Pro Max. It is especially the camera of the iPhone 13 Pro and the iPhone 13 Pro Max that will interest enthusiasts. Thanks to a telephoto lens with x3 zoom, it is now possible to capture photos in macro mode. In addition, it benefits from new settings on the camera, to make your portraits more and more professional.
Price level, it takes 809 € to acquire the iPhone 13 mini, and 909 € for the iPhone 13. These are the same prices as for the iPhone 12 when it was released at the end of 2020. Here the official prices of the iPhone 13 and its mini and Pro versions:
- iPhone 13 mini: from 809 euros.
- Classic iPhone 13: from 909 euros.
- iPhone 13 Pro: from 1159 euros.
- iPhone 13 Pro Max: from 1,259 euros (and up to 1,839 euros for the one with 1 TB of storage)
If you plan to wait for possible price drops to take advantage of the latest iPhone 13, you will have to be patient. Apple still has plenty of units of its predecessor, the iPhone 12, that can still sell out while taking advantage of promotions. We will certainly have to wait several months before taking advantage of real price reductions on Apple’s latest phone.
A new, more efficient chip
If we take a closer look at the characteristics of the iPhone 13, Apple reveals a new processor and in particular an A15 chip which would make the iPhone 13 faster than its predecessors. But its capacities will not be increased tenfold: the A15 chip does not look revolutionary (it will not be engraved in 3 nm but will remain in 5 nm like the A14 and will include the same number of cores) and is in particular already used on the iPad. But the A15 Bionic chip is still 50% faster than the competition.
A dual camera for the classic iPhone 13
It was Apple’s other big bet: to offer a better photo, and especially video. Thanks to these new sensors, the apple brand promises more pronounced colors. Thanks to new technologies such as Sensor Shift, these sensors offer more optical stabilization to the user. Video level, the iPhone 13 and 13 mini also offer a better ultra wide-angle on the back of the device (12 mpx, f / 1.6, 26 mm equivalent).
On the first images that had leaked, we already saw changes in the position of the photo sensors. On the back of the iPhone 13, two sensors are positioned diagonally to respond to the size of several components present in the smartphone. The front camera notch is also smaller than on the iPhone 12 models. As for the dimensions of the classic iPhone 13, they are identical to those of its predecessor, namely 146.7 × 71.5 × 7 .6mm. In addition, the Face ID system is improved, with effective facial recognition even if the owner is wearing a mask. An iPhone 13 in the style of Covid-19 therefore.
This is the other great novelty for this return to the apple brand. Apple presented, during the September Keynote, a new storage space for the iPhone… up to 1 TB! Previously, the largest storages did not exceed 512 GB. If this storage capacity is unprecedented for a smartphone, its price has been impacted. It takes a little over 1,800 euros to acquire this type of iPhone in Pro format.
Apple sees all colors this year. The iPhone 13 is available in pink, a brand new color in addition to blue, midnight (black), starlight (white), and red (part of which funds are donated to the Global Fund to fight Covid-19) . The iPhone 13 and iPhone 13 Pro Max also have a nice surprise in store with the “alpine blue” color. Will you be tempted by an azure blue design? Or will you prefer other more classic colors? In the Pro family, there are silver, gold or even graphite (black) colors for this iPhone 13 that looks like a real premium smartphone.
