The all-new iPhone features a Six-Core 64-bit 3.2 GHz Apple A15 Bionic processor with Quad-Core graphics, Apple M15 motion coprocessor, 6.1″ Super Retina XDR OLED Display, GPS, 5G data capability, dual-SIM support through a nano-SIM and an eSIM (Apple SIM), five colors; Midnight, Starlight, Blue, Pink, Green, and (PRODUCT) RED, 128 GB / 256 GB or 512 GB of flash memory, 4 GB of RAM, Wi-Fi 6 – 802.11ax, Bluetooth 5.0, NFC for Apple Pay, Lightning port, nano-SIM slot, Dual 12 Mpix Wide and Ultra-Wide rear camera system with Cinematic Mode / 12 Mpix front camera with TrueDepth camera system for facial recognition called Face ID, three-axis gyro, accelerometer, Barometer, Qi and MagSafe inductive charging, and IP68 for water resistance and dust resistance.

The iPhone 13 design is nearly identical to the iPhone 12. The new smartphone has a flat chassis analogous to that of Apple’s recent products, but there are some differences such as larger rear cameras arranged diagonally.

The TrueDepth camera system used for Touch ID is now 20% smaller when compared to its predecessors. The new iPhone is available in five new colors: Starlight, Midnight, Pink, (PRODUCT) RED, and Blue. The Blue, Midnight, and Starlight colors are not the same as the Blue, Black, and Silver we know from iPhone 12.

The new Super Retina XDR display is covered by Ceramic Shield, fingerprint-resistant oleophobic coating, and features higher typical maximum brightness.
