The iPhone 13 and iPhone 13 Mini (stylized as iPhone 13 mini) are smartphones designed, developed, marketed, and sold by Apple Inc. They are the fifteenth generation of iPhones (succeeding the iPhone 12 and iPhone 12 Mini). They were unveiled at an Apple Event in Apple Park in Cupertino, California on September 14, 2021, alongside the higher priced iPhone 13 Pro and iPhone 13 Pro Max flagships.[13] Pre-orders for the iPhone 13 and iPhone 13 Mini began on September 17, 2021. They became available on September 24, 2021.[14]

Design

The iPhone 13 has a flat chassis analogous to that of Apple's recent products, with some differences such as the rear cameras being larger and arranged diagonally. The Face ID TrueDepth sensor housing is now 20% smaller when compared to their predecessors.

The iPhone 13 and 13 Mini are available in five colors: Midnight, Starlight, Product Red, Blue, and Pink.[3]

Specifications

Hardware

The iPhone 13 and iPhone 13 Mini use an Apple-designed A15 Bionic system on a chip. The iPhone 13 and 13 Mini feature a 6-core CPU, 4-core GPU and 16-core Neural Engine,[13] while the iPhone 13 Pro and 13 Pro Max feature a 5 core GPU.[15]

Display

The iPhone 13 features a 6.1-inch (15 cm) display with Super Retina XDR OLED technology at a resolution of 2532×1170 pixels and a pixel density of about 460 PPI with a refresh rate of 60Hz. The iPhone 13 Mini features a 5.4-inch (14 cm) display with the same technology at a resolution of 2340×1080 pixels and a pixel density of about 476 PPI.[13]

Cameras

The iPhone 13 and 13 Mini feature the same camera system with three cameras: one front-facing camera and two back-facing cameras: a wide and ultra-wide camera. The back-facing cameras both contain larger sensors for more light-gathering with optical image stabilization (OIS). The camera module on the back is arranged diagonally instead of vertically to engineer the larger sensors.

The cameras use Apple's latest computational photography engine, called Smart HDR 4. Users can also choose from a range of photographic styles during capture, including rich contrast, vibrant, warm, and cool. Apple clarifies this is different than a filter, because it works intelligently with the image processing algorithm during capture to apply local adjustments to an image.

The camera app contains a new mode called Cinematic Mode, which allows users to rack focus between subjects and create shallow depth of field using software algorithms. It is supported on the wide and front-facing cameras in 1080p at 30 fps.

Software

iPhone 13 and iPhone 13 Mini are shipped with iOS 15 at launch.

Repairability

The iPhone 13 screen is designed to prevent being replaced by independent repair shops, as the screen is locked to the phone. Apple technicians have a secret software tool to install new screens.[16][17]
